Philips 19PFL4322 – 19" Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV – Review
| March 20, 2008 | Posted by Shop Assistant under Gifts |
Not so long ago the emphasis on displays was size, with the home cinema market being targeted by the manufacturers. Today, as the home cinema plasma screen market has become mature and saturated, manufacturers are now bringing out more smaller models, at lower prices. These models appeal to people who used to consider a 20 inch standard ratio television huge, and also for those who wish to have a discreet screen in a bedroom or kitchen.
So, what is new in small screens? Philip’s’ High-definition LCD WXGA+ display 1440 x 900p
This WXGA+ display with state-of-the-art LCD screen technology gives you widescreen HD resolution of 1440 x 900p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb colours. This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an enhanced viewing experience.
HD ready for the highest quality display of HDTV signals
Enjoy the exceptional picture quality of a true High Definition TV signal and be fully prepared for HD sources like HDTV broadcast, Blu-ray DVD or HDVD. HD ready is a protected label that offers picture quality beyond that of progressive scan. It conforms to strict standards laid out by EICTA to offer a HD screen that displays the benefits of resolution and picture quality of a High Definition TV signal. It has a universal connection for both analogue YPbPr and uncompressed Digital connection of DVI or HDMI, supporting HDCP. It can display 720p, and 1080i signals at 50 and 60Hz.
Crystal Clear III for natural images with enhanced quality
Crystal Clear III combines a whole range of enhancements to provide a better picture. They include a 2D Comb filter, Dynamic contrast, blue stretch and green enhancement so that you always get the most natural looking colours.
Progressive Scan component video for optimised image quality
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.
Incredible Surround for enhanced audio enjoyment
Incredible Surround is an audio technology from Philips that dramatically magnifies the sound field to immerse you in the audio. Using state-of-the-art electronic phase shifting, Incredible Surround mixes sounds from left and right in such a way that it expands the virtual distance between the two speakers. This wider spread greatly enhances the stereo effect and creates a more natural sound dimension. Incredible Surround allows you to experience total surround with greater depth and width of sound, without the use of additional speakers.
Compact and slim design that fits in every room
This design style emphasises a slim, compact look that saves space and fits in anywhere.
1000 page Hypertext for instant fast access to teletext
The teletext is a common system transmitted by most broadcasters. The 1000 page smart text feature gives you extremely fast access to information when changing pages.
HDMI for full digital High Definition connection
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analogue 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.
PC input lets you also use your TV as a PC monitor. With PC input you can connect your TV to a computer and use the TV as a PC monitor.
