Philips testing and algorithm technology for
monitor adjustment and fine tuning, an
extensive process that ensures ultimate display
performance in compliance with a standard
four-times more stringent than Microsoft's

operating system, designed to enhance your
entertainment experience, make you more

best possible match between the colors
displayed on your screen and those in your
printouts.
SmartImage
SmartImage is an exclusive leading edge Philips
technology that analyzes the content displayed
on your screen and gives you optimized display
performance. This user friendly interface
allows you to select various modes like Office,
Image, Entertainment, Economy etc., to fit the
application in use. Based on the selection,
SmartImage dynamically optimizes the
contrast, color saturation and sharpness of
images and videos for ultimate display
performance. The Economy mode option
offers you major power savings. All in real time
with the press of a single button!
Fast response time
Response time measures signal reaction speed
in milliseconds. On/off response time
measures the time required for the screen to
turn from completely white to completely
black and vice versa. Fast on/off response time
improves display of text. Gray-to-grey
response time measures the average time of
transition between several sets of random gray
levels - Lower numbers mean faster
transitions. Faster is better because a fast
response time eliminates visible image artifacts
that could dampen your experience when
viewing fast moving images or objects.
Adjustable tilt
Adjustable tilt is backward and forward
movement of a screen on its base to achieve
custom positioning for an ideal viewing angle
and more comfort for people who spend long
hours working on the computer.

An embedded power supply is a power
adaptor built into the body of a display device
that replaces a bulky external power adaptor.

with an easy-to-use on-screen graphic
interface that guides you through fine-tuning
resolution, color calibration and other display
settings including brightness, contrast, clock &
phase, position, RGB, white point and - on
models with onboard speakers - volume
adjustments.
Cable management
Cable management is a system that maintains
tidy workspace by organizing cables and wires
required for the operation of a display device.
