FeaturesVideo The TV has a 16:9 aspect ratio, and an anti-reflective screen. It supports a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080p. It has a good 3 ms response time and can display 4 trillion colors (14-bit RGB). The panel has a maximum brightness of 550 cd/m2, and a contrast ratio of 1200:1 (static) and 8000:1 (dynamic). It has viewing angles of 176 degrees (both horizontal and vertical). Philips has incorporated picture enhancement techniques like Perfect Pixel HD Engine, HD Natural Motion, 100Hz Clear LCD, and more. Ambilight
Ambilight at work
Unique to Philips, Ambilight projects a soft light glow onto the walls around the TV set, which automatically changes to match the colors and brightness of the picture. Ambilight improves perceived contrast, color, and detail, giving you the sensation that you're looking at a wider picture. It has also been proven to reduce eye-strain by providing a more relaxing viewing experience. ClearLCD ClearLCD technology involves the use of a scanning backlight to kill motion blur, thereby producing incredibly smooth pictures. It mainly improves the black levels and eliminates speckles of background noise. The Double Frame Rate Insertion in Clear LCD works at a refresh rate of 100Hz. It increases the sharpness of motion reproduction to more than twice that of a conventional LCD, resulting in a response time of 3 milliseconds. HD Natural Motion Ambilight is one of the most obvious features; HD Natural Motion (HDNM) is easily the most interesting. HDNM is a process designed to eliminate motion jitter. Before we go ahead, let's see what motion jitter is. One of the biggest difficulties with progressive scan displays like LCDs is interpreting the interlaced video signals most DVDs and television broadcasts use. When done poorly, this signal conversion can create "jitter," resulting in visible jerkiness as the frame pans or objects move across the screen. Some manufacturers have tried, in the past, to correct jitter by either doubling the lines in each field of the interlaced image or by doubling the frames in progressive images to create extra frames, giving the illusion of smooth motion. This works well on slow-moving or static subjects, but if the motion is too fast, the eyes perceive the extra frames as jitter. HDNM is Philips' adaptation of a technology originally used in its CRTs to correct the jitter issue. It takes a different approach: it analyzes the content of the current and successive fields to produce an entirely new field. The new field is an estimation of the path of motion which is then used to "fill the gap" between the existing signal and the required frame rate of the display. HDNM not only eliminates jitter, it also removes a good amount of motion blur. It creates smooth motion and crisp images; the results of the use of HDNM are clear even with standard-definition videos. Perfect Pixel Perfect Pixel HD Engine offers the unique combination of ultimate sharpness, natural detail, vivid colors and smooth natural motion on all qualities of HD, standard TV signals, and multimedia content for high-definition displays. Each pixel of the incoming picture is enhanced to better match the surrounding pixels, resulting in a more natural picture. Artifacts and noise in all sources from multimedia to standard TV and also in highly compressed HD content are detected and reduced, ensuring that the picture is clean and sharp.
we are planning to buy 32" LCD TV of either SONY, LG or Samsung. Lot of people are saying that the after slaes service is very very costly. They charge Rs.3000/- for visit and and parts are very costly. One would not encourage to buy 40K product if it has to malfunction after one year of purchase. Kindly guide.
I think this is a GHOST Review just generated hypothetically.Philips 47PFL9532/98 is about 50 percent costlier than Philips 42PFL9532/98 & Philips says its Philips 42PFL9532/98 costs 1,18,000.
Mr. Sudeep where is this 47inch LCD available for 1,19,000 ?
(We at Techtree are always ready to help you fulfill your pathological craving for things like these.) Sudeep most techtree readers are normal ppl. not pathologically brain dead. Good prose will only enhance your review. Somewhere U have lost the plot about pricing of this so called review ? a full HD 1080p- 47 inch for 118k in India- only in your dreams. Please make background price checks before posting reviews done hypothetically. Incidentally where did U get the Philips 47PFL9532-98 LCD TV for review ?- last i asked Philips they only had 42inch for 120k.
Had the wrong price been quoted for Philips 47PFL9532 LCD TV in the review. On the Net the price is around US $ 4000 even in Singapore !! I want one for 1,18000- WHERE ?
47-incher, the Philips 47PFL9532/98 for 1,19,000 is practically a steal- is this street price ? or company price- because company web site states the price of 42 inch model at 1,29,000 for 42PFL9532-98.
