Ambilight 2-sided
This patented Philips technology makes your screen seem wider—and your viewing experience more immersive—by projecting a soft ambient glow from the side of the TV screen onto the surrounding wall. The color automatically adjusts to match the TV picture. Thanks to a wall-adaptive function, the color of the light is perfectly aligned with the TV picture, regardless of the wall color. You can customize the experience using various settings to suit your viewing preference.
Easy 3D
Enjoy hours of viewing comfort thanks to passive 3D technology that delivers you high quality, flicker free, low ghosting 3D. Convert any 2D content into vivid and flawless 3D. The stylish, lightweight 3D glasses are comfortable to wear and do not require batteries.
Full HD LED TV
Picture quality matters. Regular HDTVs deliver quality, but you expect the best. Imagine breathtakingly crisp detail paired with high brightness, incredible contrast, sharp motion definition, realistic colors and a true to life picture—as well as low power consumption. Well, look no further. Full HD LED delivers more detail than standard HDTVs. And more detail in the image means a more intense viewing experience for you.
300Hz PMR
For picture movement that looks precise, smooth and natural, Philips created PMR—our standard for measuring moving image sharpness. Perfect Motion Rate is the combined result of our unique video processing, number of frames per second and refresh rate of each frame, perfection in dimming capabilities, and backlighting technology. A higher PMR number contributes to higher contrast and better motion clarity—which means a superior image for you.
Pixel Plus HD
Our advanced digital picture processing technology increases the number of lines and the number of pixels. The result delivers razor sharp pictures with incredible detail and depth, every time and from any source.
