cking the status of display

SmartImage

SmartImage is an exclusive leading-edge Philips
technology that analyses the content displayed
on your screen. Based on a scenario you select,
SmartImage dynamically enhances the contrast,
colour saturation and sharpness of images and
videos for ultimate display performance - all in
real time and at the press of a single button.

SmartContrast

SmartContrast is Philips technology that
analyses the contents you are displaying,
automatically adjusting colours and controlling
backlight intensity to dynamically enhance
contrast for the best digital images and
optimum contrast for better entertainment
when viewing videos or playing games where
dark hues are displayed; when you select the
Economy mode, contrast is adjusted and
backlighting fine-tuned for just-right display of
everyday office applications and lower power
consumption.

5 ms on/off response time

On-Off response time is the period required
for a liqui
to inactive (white) and back to active (black)

d crystal cell to go from active (black)

again. It is measured in milliseconds. Faster is
better: lower response time means faster
transitions and, therefore, results in fewer
visible image artefacts in the display of
transition of texts and graphics. On-Off
response time is a more important measure in
the display of business content like documents,
graphs and photos.

Adjustable tilt

Adjustable tilt is backward and forward
moveme
custom positioning for an ideal viewing angle
and more comfort for people who spend long
hours working on the computer.
