Highlights
Smart LED TV with Ambilight Spectra 2 and Perfect Pixel HD
102 cm (40") Full HD 3D Max DVB-T2/C
Ambilight Spectra 2
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
automatically adjusts the colour and brightness
of the light to match the picture, creating an
immersive viewing experience. The wall-
adaptive function ensures that the colour of
the light always matches the picture, no matter
what the colour of your wall is. Get the bigger
picture with Ambilight.
3D Max
Be enthralled by 3D movies in your own living
room with the 3D Max. The combination of
the fast display and Active shutter glasses bring
real life depth in Full HD resolution. Now all
2D content can be experienced in 3D and you
can even control the depth of the 3D to your
liking. Just add the 3D Max glasses PTA516 and
a 3D compatible BluRay player to make your
TV ready for the 3D Max experience.
Perfect Pixel HD
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 colours,
superior contrast and smooth natural motion
whatever you are watching. Clean and razor
sharp images result from artefact and noise
detection and reduction in all content sources
- from multimedia to standard TV. The Full HD
screen with 1920 x 1080 pixels produces
brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures
with superb brightness.
Full HD LED TV
The most advanced LED lighting technology in
this Full HD LED 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 backlights you can
enjoy low power consumption, high
brightness, incredible contrast, sharpness and
vibrant colours.
800 Hz Perfect Motion Rate
800 Hz 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.
28 W RMS SoundStage
Philips SoundStage with 28 W RMS output
power has far more dynamism and power than
anything heard on LCD TVs today. Now, we
can combine an ultra-thin design with powerful
TV sound. The TV stand houses an advanced
speaker system, which combines deep, warm
bass with excellent clarity. And you can also
enjoy the excellent sound experience in the
wall-mount position.

experience in four areas. Net TV lets you
enjoy a wealth of online apps on your TV:
rent films, watch catch-up TV and enjoy
social media. Stay in Control: change
channels or enter text using your

A
Energy Class A
For many years Philips has pro-actively
been working on the reduction of both
on-mode and standby power
consumption of its televisions and as a
result most Philips televisions have
achieved green EU energy labels in 2010.
The greener the label, the lower the on-
mode power consumption and the lower
your energy bill and friendlier to the
environment.
