SmartContrast

Unique technology that dynamically analyzes displayed content and automatically optimizes a LCD monitor's contrast ratio for maximum visual clarity and viewing enjoyment, stepping up backlighting for clearer, crisper and brighter images or dimming backlighting for clear display of images on dark backgrounds. For monitors with SmartContrast, contrast ratio achieves 3000:1, the highest available today in a desktop LCD monitor.

SmartControl II

SmartControl II is monitor-based software with an easy-to-use on-screen graphic interface that guides you through fine-tuning resolution, color calibration and other display settings including brightness, contrast, clock & phase, position, RGB, white point and - on models with onboard speakers - volume adjustments.

SmartImage

SmartImage provides presets that optimize display for different types of content, dynamically adjusting brightness, contrast, color and sharpness in real time. Whether you're working with text applications, displaying images or watching a video, Philips SmartImage delivers great optimized LCD display performance.

SmartResponse

SmartResponse is exclusive Philips technology that adjusts response time to application requirements, delivering faster response times for gaming and videos or better color saturation for viewing photos and static images.
