Product highlights
LCD WXGA display, 1366 x 768p
This WXGA display with state-of-the-art LCD screen
technology gives you widescreen HD resolution of 1366 x
768p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive
scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb colors.
This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an
enhanced viewing experience.

Integrated HDTV Cable Ready

The built-in HDTV tuner that receives and displays
terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled cable (64/256 QAM)
signals.

Pixel Plus
This set uses the power of the Pixel Plus processor to
increase the number of lines and the number of pixels.
The result is razor sharp pictures with incredible detail
and dept, every time from any source.

Dynamic contrast enhancer

You want the LCD flat display with the highest contrast
and most vibrant images even at wide viewing angle. The
Philips dynamic contrast enhancer uses video processing
and unique dimming backlight technology. This delivers
deep rich black levels with increased detail. The dimming
backlight increases the contrast up to 5 times*, and at the
same time improves the viewing angle. It gives a bright,
lifelike picture with high contrast and vibrant colors, (*
factor between 2 and 5, screen type and picture content
dependant).

Dolby Digital
Because Dolby Digital and DTS, the world's leading digital
multi-channel audio standards, make use of the way the
human ear naturally processes sound, you experience
superb quality surround sound audio with realistic spatial
cues.

USB Multimedia Connector

The USB connector allows access to multimedia jpg, mp3,
mp3-pro and alb files of most USB-sticks and most digital
cameras (USB 1.1 memory-class device). Plug the USB
into the slot at the side of the TV and access your photos
or music files. This makes you easily viewing and sharing
your photos and music.

Plug & Play

Plug & Play gives you the ability to install or add a new
component and have it work without having to perform
any complex installation procedure or technical analysis.

HDMI input
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection
from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion
to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The
non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer
picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest
output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input
is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but
includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.
