Full HD LED TV—brilliant LED images with incredible contrast
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.
100Hz Perfect Motion Rate (PMR) for clear motion sharpness
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.
Two USB slots for generous multimedia access
With Two USB Slots you can keep a hard disc connected for USB recording and Pause TV so you’ll always have control of your personal programming. The convenient extra USB port means connecting a Skype™ camera or accessing any jpeg photos, mp3 music or video files stored on your USB-storage devices will never interfere with your recording.
Three HDMI inputs and Easylink for integrated connectivity
Avoid cable clutter with a single cable to carry both picture and audio signals from your devices to your TV. HDMI uses uncompressed signals, ensuring the highest quality from source to screen. Together with Philips Easylink, you’ll need only one remote control to perform most operations on your TV, DVD, Blu-ray, set top box or home theatre system.
Digital Crystal Clear to enhance picture quality
Enjoy extremely clear pictures from any source. This package of picture innovations digitally adjusts and optimizes picture quality to optimal contrast, color and sharpness levels.
