Philips 47PFL9664 47 in LCD TV

To say that I've been impressed by the majority of Philips' latest TV range would be an understatement. With the exception of the uncomfortably positioned 42PFL8404, I've loved everything the brand has thrown at me recently....

Ambilight Spectra 2 enhances the viewing experience

Add a new dimension to your viewing experience with Ambilight Spectra 2. This patented Philips technology enlarges the screen further by projecting a glow of light from the back of the screen onto the surrounding wall. Ambilight automatically adjusts the colour and brightness of the light surrounding the TV to match the picture, creating an immersive viewing experience. With Ambilight Spectra 2 movies truly come to life!

Perfect Pixel HD Engine for unrivalled sharpness and clarity

Experience unrivalled sharpness and clarity with Perfect Pixel HD Engine. Each pixel of the picture is enhanced to match the surrounding pixels better, resulting in a more natural picture. The result is a unique combination of sharpness, natural detail, vivid colours, superior contrast and smooth natural motion whatever you are watching. Clean and razor sharp images result from artefact and noise detection and reduction in all content sources — from multimedia to standard TV.

Full HD LCD display, with a 1920 x 1080p resolution

The Full HD screen has the widescreen resolution of 1920 x 1080p. This is the highest resolution of HD sources for the best possible picture quality. It is fully future-proof as it supports 1080p signals from all sources, including the most recent sources such as Blu-ray and advanced HD game consoles. The signal processing is extensively upgraded to support this much higher signal quality and resolution. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with superb brightness and colours.

Philips Net TV with Wi-Fi for online services on your TV

Experience a rich selection of online services with Net TV. Enjoy movies, pictures, infotainment and other online content directly on your TV whenever you like. Simply connect your home theatre directly to your home network through the Ethernet connection, and navigate and select what you want to watch with the remote control. The Philips menu gives you access to popular Net TV services fitted for your TV screen. Additionally, with the DLNA certified PC network you can watch videos or access pictures stored on your computer using your remote control.

Perfect Natural Motion for ultra-smooth Full HD movies

Enjoy the action without any judder. Perfect Natural Motion estimates motion in the picture and corrects juddering movements in both broadcast and pre-recorded movie material (including 1080p movies and 24p True Cinema on Blu-ray and DVD). The result is even smoother and quieter pictures with excellent sharpness. Enjoy motion performance that surpasses cinema quality!

200 Hz Clear LCD*, 1 ms performance: superb motion sharpness

Enjoy extreme motion sharpness. The Philips 200 Hz Clear LCD brings the response time of LCD TV to an incredible 1ms, so even with the fastest car chase scene you will be enthralled by the action, and not following a stretched car across the screen.

Ultra slim and thin TV for perfect fit in your living room

This ultra slim and thin TV fits your living room perfectly. With a bezel of 25 mm and a depth of only 49 mm, this TV combines the minimalism of design with the true cinematic viewing experience of Ambilight: Ambilight adds to the viewing experience, not to the size of your TV.

MPEG4 HDTV reception via DVB-T and DVB-C tuner with CI+*

HDTV allows you to watch TV with the best possible picture and sound quality, without an additional set-top box. Thanks to the built-in tuner that supports DVB-Terrestrial and DVB-Cable signals for both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 formats, you receive high definition TV programmes in exceptional quality. Moreover, with Common Interface Plus (CI+) you benefit from premium high definition content direct to your TV.

Enjoy a rich selection of web videos from YouTube and others

Net TV brings you a rich selection of videos from YouTube and other video websites. The videos are tailored to fit your TV screen, allowing you to sit back and enjoy online videos at optimum quality.
