Ambilight Spectra 2 widens the viewing experience

Add a new dimension to your viewing experience with Ambilight Spectra 2. This patented Philips technology enlarges the screen by projecting a glow of light, on the 2 sides of the TV, from the back of the screen onto the surrounding wall. Ambilight adjusts automatically the colour and brightness of the light to match the picture, creating an immersive viewing experience. The wall adaptive function ensures that the color of the light always matches the picture, no matter what the color of your wall. With Ambilight Spectra 2 movies truly come to life!

HD Natural Motion for ultra smooth motion in Full HD movies

Philips invented HD Natural Motion to minimize juddering effects that are visible with movie based picture content. The award winning algorithm estimates motion in the picture and corrects juddering movements in both broadcast and recorded movie material (such as DVD and Blu-ray Disc). The resulting smooth motion reproduction and excellent sharpness take the viewing experience to a higher level.

Seamless connectivity with 3 HDMI inputs and Easylink

LED TVs up to 40% more energy efficient than normal LCD TVs

Using the latest LED backlight technology, LED-backlit TVs are a more sustainable choice, with a longer life and far lower energy consumption than plasmas and conventional LCD TVs.
