Highlights
LCD WXGA display, 1366 x 768p This WXGA display with state-of-the-art LCD screen technology gives you widescreen HD resolution of 1366 x 768p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb colours. This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an enhanced viewing experience. Integrated Digital DVB-T tuner The integrated Digital DVB-T tuner lets you receive digital terrestrial TV without an additional set top box. Enjoy quality TV clutter free. HD Ready Enjoy the exceptional picture quality of High Definition pictures and be fully prepared for HD sources like HDTV set-top boxes and Bluray discs. HD Ready is a protected label that offers picture quality beyond that of progressive scan. It conforms to strict standards laid out by EICTA to offer an HD screen that displays the benefits of the resolution and picture quality of a High Definition signal. It has a universal connection for both analogue YPbPr and uncompressed Digital connection of DVI or HDMI, supporting HDCP. It can display 720p, and 1080i signals at 50 and 60 Hz. Pixel Plus 3 HD Pixel Plus 3 HD offers the unique combination of ultimate sharpness, natural detail, vivid colours and smooth natural motion on all qualities of HD, standard TV signals and multimedia content for high definition displays. Each pixel of the incoming picture is enhanced to better match the surrounding pixels, resulting in a more natural picture. Artefacts and noise in all sources from multimedia to standard TV and also in highly compressed HD are detected and reduced, ensuring that the picture is clean and razor sharp. Clear LCD with 3 ms response Clear LCD creates extreme motion sharpness for clear and vibrant images even with fast onscreen motion. The high refresh rates of the scanning backlight technology increases the sharpness of motion reproduction down to an effective response time of 3 milliseconds (measured in Perceived Blur-Edge-Width; BEW). It also creates a higher dynamic contrast and an increased viewing angle. The unique Philips technology brings motion sharpness of LCD displays to an unprecedented level, better than any other Flat display technology. Ambilight Full Surround Ambilight 4 makes an impressive contribution to the overall viewing experience and the design of the TV. It produces a fully surrounding glow of light that complements the colours and light intensity on all 4 sides of the image and with the unique design creates a 'floating display'. The Ambilight is cast onto a reflective area that is an integrated part of the TV's unique design and makes it independent from TV position or mounting. The surrounding glow creates ambiance, stimulates more relaxed viewing, improves perceived picture detail, contrast and colour, and will completely immerse you. Lambda/4 sound system You want a deeper sound experience in music and movies? The integrated subwoofer with lambda/4 technology creates a very deep and powerful bass in a highly compact enclosure, keeping the TV slim and flat. The lambda/4 subwoofer unit utilises resonating acoustic masses in a system of ducts to produce powerful bass with low distortion. The lambda/ 4 sound system, combined with high quality midrange and tweeters also gives a very spacious stereo image. PC-link The PC-link provides fun and easy access to your personal digital media files and multimedia content*. The widely used Ethernet (LAN) and Wi-Fi open standards are used for wired and (optional) wireless** connection and ensure interoperability. Browse your PC collection of digital photographs, multimedia videos and music files via your home LAN network. The intuitive user interface of the TV and the Philips Multimedia Manager for your PC makes it available at the push of a button (* see product for supported formats, PC-LAN functionality required ** Additional 'Ethernetbridge' device required) Wireless PC link prepared Wi-Fi is the leading standard for wireless broadband. With the wireless prepared function* in the Philips TV you can share PC multimedia content anywhere in your house, without the hassle of wires. High Bandwidth means you can enjoy high quality multimedia pictures, music or video, over distances that can reach up to 100 metres**. Access your Wi-Fi PC or your home Wi-Fi network (router). (*requires optional, Wi-Fi Ethernetbridge. **may vary under local conditions) USB and Memory Card slot Instantaneously view and share your movies, photos and music. The Memory Card slot will accept cards of the following types: Compact Flash I and II, Memory Stick, SD Card/Mini SD Card, Smart Media, Micro Drive (up to 2 GB) and Multi Media Card. Simply plug the memory card into the slot at the side of the TV and access the multimedia files stored on the card. The USB connector allows access to multimedia files on most USB sticks and most digital cameras (USB memory-class device). 2 HDMI inputs HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analogue signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The nondegraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backwards-compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection. With 2 HDMI inputs you can connect multiple HD sources, for instance an HD set-top box and a Blu-ray player. Your TV is fully prepared for the HD future.
