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.

USB for fantastic multimedia playback

The USB connector allows access to jpeg photos, mp3 music and video files of most USB-sticks (USB memory-class device).

Seamless connectivity with 3 HDMI inputs and Easylink

HDMI is a single cable to carry both picture and audio signals from your devices to your TV, avoiding cable clutter. It carries uncompressed signals, ensuring the highest quality from source to screen. Together with Philips Easylink, you need only one remote control to perform most operations on your TV, DVD, BluRay, set top box or home theatre system.

Full HD TV with Pixel Precise HD for details in action

Pixel Precise HD builds on the award winning Pixel Plus foundation. It brings the high definition picture quality to the next level with 4 trillion colours. With Super Resolution, Pixel Precise HD now brings you the best HD TV picture quality whether you are watching a video from the internet or good quality Blu-ray movies.

100Hz LCD, 2ms performance for superb motion sharpness

100Hz LCD creates extreme motion sharpness. The Double Frame Rate Insertion increases the sharpness of motion reproduction to more than twice that of conventional LCD, resulting in a performance with a response time of 2 milliseconds. Now you can enjoy clear images even with fast on-screen motion.

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. Unlike CCFL backlights, LEDs do not use mercury in their manufacture. In addition, Philips TV designs have constantly improved, resulting in higher material efficiency and reduced energy usage without compromising on safety and well-being.
