Ambilight
Ambilight makes an impressive contribution to the overall
viewing experience by producing ambient light to
comp le me nt th e c ol or s a nd lig ht in te ns it y o f t he on -s cr ee n
image. It adds a new dimension to the viewing
experience, completely immersing you into the content
you are watching. It creates ambiance, stimulates more
relaxed viewing, and improves perceived picture detail,
contrast and color. Ambilight automatically and
independently adapts its colors according to the changing
content on the screen.
Pixel Plus 3 HD
Pixe l Pl us 3 H D o ffe rs th e un ique combination of ultimate
sharpness, natural detail, vivid colors 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. Artifacts 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.
Full HD LCD display 1920x1080p
The Full HD screen has the widescreen resolution of
1920 x 1080p. This is the highest resolution of HD
sources for the best possible picture quality. It is fully
future proof as it supports 1080p signals from all
sources, including the most recent like Blu-ray and
advanced HD game consoles. The signal processing is
extensively upgraded to support this much higher signal
quality and resolution. It produces brilliant flicker-free
progressive scan pictures with superb brightness and
colors.
HD Natural Motion
Philips invented HD Natural Motion to eliminate
juddering effects that are visible with movie based picture
content. HD Natural Motion 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. HD Natural Motion removes
judder from SD and HD pictures, including 1080p, for a
motion performance that surpasses the cinema!

Double Frame Rate Insertion works with a high 100Hz
refresh rate. It increases the sharpness of motion
reproduction to more than twice that of conventional
LCD, resulting i n a performan ce with a res ponse time of
3 milliseconds (measured in Perceived Blur-Edge-Width;
BEW). This unique Philips technology brings motion
sharpness of LCD displays to an unprecedented level.
28.9 billion colors
Vibrant and natural images from most advanced color
processing. The 3 color channels (RGB) are optimized
using 10 bit resolution, a total processing power of 28.9
billion colors. It produces vibrant colors while retaining
