Product highlights
Flat, Slim,Wide
True Flat Multimedia TV which can be mounted on the
wall like a painting.
LCD Active Matrix TFT Panel
This new generation TFT panel technology offers superior picture quality with higher contrast levels, more
brightness & colour, a faster response time and a wide
viewing angle.This vibrant and sharp image will offer
you the utmost viewing experience.
PixelPlus 2
Pixel Plus is a digital picture processing feature which
improves the resolution of still and moving pictures.
Pixel Plus 2 technology does more than adding pixels,
it also makes the pixels better, resulting in the ultimate
sharpness and incredible picture depth every time from
every source. It does not only improve the resolution
but also the colour reproduction, resulting in the finest
colour details and superior brilliance.
Ambilight
The full colour Ambilight offers you relaxed viewing and
a unique ambiance via a soft glow of light on the wall
surrounding the TV. Research has proven that watching
television with adapted ambient lighting will improve
and relax TV viewing.The automatic adaptation of the
Ambilight colours with the images on the screen will
maximise the viewing experience.The light can also be
switched to fixed colours and different shades of white.
In standby mode the lights can be operated to any
colour and create a unique ambiance in the room.
Digital Natural Motion
Philips invented Digital Natural Motion to eliminate
juddering effects that are visible with moving picture
content. Digital Natural Motion estimates motion in the
picture and corrects juddering movements in both
broadcast and movie material (DVD).Smooth motion
reproduction and excellent sharpness are the result.
Full ActiveControl
Active Control automatically analyses, 50 times per second, the incoming signal and adjusts the key picture
settings on Sharpness, Digital Noise Reduction,Color
and Contrast.The ambient light sensor adjusts the settings according to the viewing conditions in the room.
Active Control thus offers the best possible picture settings any time, any source.
Virtual Dolby Surround
Dolby processing circuitry for an enhanced cinema surround sound effect without the need for rear speakers.
Invisible flat NXT SurfaceSound speakers
The ground breaking NXT SurfaceSound principle has
been further developed into the monolith speakertechnology.Whereby the outer surface of the TV cabinet is
the actual speaker membrane.The speakers are now
virtually invisible, bringing a stunning design, and a pure
an direct sound radiation.

Teletext and/or NexTView. Includes Picture In Picture
