SmartContrast
SmartContrast is a Philips technology that
analyzes the contents you are displaying,
automatically adjusting colors and controlling
backlight intensity to dynamically enhance
contrast for the best digital images and videos
or when playing games where dark hues are

contrast is adjusted and backlighting fine-tuned
for just-right display of everyday office
applications and lower power consumption.
5ms on/off response time
On-Off response time is the period required
for a liquid crystal cell to go from active (black)
to inactive (white) and back to active (black)
again. It is measured in milliseconds. Faster is
better: Lower response time means faster
transitions and, therefore, results in fewer
visible image artifacts in the display of
transition of texts and graphics. On-Off
response time is a more important measure in
the display of business content like documents,
graphs and photos.
Adjustable tilt
Adjustable tilt is backward and forward
movement of a screen on its base to achieve
