Add a new dimension to your viewing experience with Ambilight Spectra 2. This patented Philips technology enlarges the screen by projecting a glow of light, on the 2 sides of the TV, from the back of the screen onto the surrounding wall. Ambilight adjusts automatically the colour and brightness of the light to match the picture, creating an immersive viewing experience. The wall adaptive function ensures that the color of the light always matches the picture, no matter what the color of your wall. With Ambilight Spectra 2 movies truly come to life!
Enjoy the action without any judder. Perfect Natural Motion estimates motion in the picture and corrects juddering movements in both broadcast and pre-recorded movie material (including 1080p movies and 24p True Cinema on Blu-ray and DVD). The result is even smoother and quieter pictures with excellent sharpness. Enjoy motion performance that surpasses cinema quality!

The most advanced LED lighting technology in this TV combines an eye-catching minimalistic design with stunning image quality as well as the lowest power consumption in its category. On top of that, LED lighting technology does not contain any hazardous materials. Thus, with LED backlight you can enjoy low power consumption, high brightness, incredible contrast, sharpness and vibrant colors.
800Hz Perfect Motion Rate (PMR) creates extreme motion sharpness for even clearer and more vibrant images in fast action movies. The new Philips PMR standard shows the combined visible effect of the fastest panel refresh rate, Perfect Natural Motion and unique processing formula, for unprecedented motion sharpness.
Experience unrivalled sharpness and clarity with Perfect Pixel HD Engine. Each pixel of the picture is enhanced to better match the surrounding pixels, for a more natural picture. The result is a unique combination of sharpness, natural detail, vivid colors, superior contrast and smooth natural motion whatever you are watching. Clean and razor sharp images result from artifact and noise detection and reduction in all content sources - from multimedia to standard TV. The Full HD screen with 1920 x 1080p pixels produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with superb brightness.
Feel the power of the music beat and the atmosphere of the movies. The powerful 20W RMS (2x10W RMS) amplifiers create a lifelike sound stage. Incredible Surround allows you to experience total surround with greater depth and width of sound complementary to the rich viewing experience.
Using the latest LED backlight technology, LED-backlit TVs are a more sustainable choice, with a longer life and far lower energy consumption than plasmas and conventional LCD TVs. Unlike CCFL backlights, LEDs do not use mercury in their manufacture. In addition, Philips TV designs have constantly improved, resulting in higher material efficiency and reduced energy usage without compromising on safety and well-being.
