Philips HDTV
One of the largest electronics companies in the world, Netherlands-headquartered Philips makes some of the best HDTVs in the market. As proof of its high quality and advanced technology, the Philips 42PFL9803 HDTV won the European Image and Sound Association (EISA) award for the best European LCD HDTV for 2008-2009. Powered by the Perfect Pixel HD Engine, with a cutting-edge Lux LED backlight with 2D Dimming control, this Philips HDTV delivers black levels never before seen in LCDs. The same engine, together with the Clear LCD 100Hz technology, renders images that naturally vivid and free of motion blur. Beautiful aesthetics with clear sounds coming from invisible speakers, the Philips exclusive Ambilight feature, and media-rich connectivity, including a Digital Living Network Alliance standard connection, all make this HDTV the perfect choice.
The line of Philips HDTVs that caters to the high-end market are distinguished by the Ambilight technology - the quaint but immersive feature which enriches viewing experience by simulating the colors in the screen and projecting these on the wall surrounding the TV - that is installed in the HDTVs. The top-of-the-line Aurea II Ambilight technology is fitted in the 9900 HDTV series (37PFL9903 and 42PFL9903), while the 9700 Series sport the engaging Spectra 3 Ambilight technology. These Philips HDTVs sport advanced features such as 2ms response time, the Perfect Pixel HD Engine, 17-bit RGB color processing, 100Hz picture processing and full 1080p HD resolution. Cheaper models usually are not equipped with the ambient light feature or have scaled down versions of it.
Philips also has many plasma HDTV models currently in the market, though there are indications that the company will stop development of plasmas in 2009. Among the notable ones is the 42-inch 42PF9631D HD-ready plasma. With good black levels and decent picture quality, this mid-range HDTV also features Ambilight and a host of connectivity options.
