Amazon Product Description

Amazon Product Description Perfect for high-contrast television and progressive-scan DVD viewing, Philips' standard (4:3) aspect-ratio 20PF7835 is stylish enough and small enough to be used in any room of the house. The 20-inch TV offers high brightness (400 cd/m2) and high contrast (350:1), as well as an integrated NTSC TV tuner for cable or broadcast reception of all your favorite programs. Hook it up to an optional DTV receiver or progressive-scan DVD player and you'll enjoy vivid, detailed images from progressive-scanned 480p sources on the set's native 640 x 480 screen.

Philips' Dynamic Contrast technology optimizes the contrast of the picture by stretching the white, gray, and black levels.

LCD technology allows screens to be thinner and televisions to be lighter and more energy efficient than ever before. The result is television that not only fits on a wall, but fits in places conventional televisions cannot. The 20PF7835 comes outfitted with Digital Crystal Clear III technology, a suite of picture innovations including Dynamic Contrast and advanced, 10-bit processing. Further, the DCDi chip by Faroudja enhances resolution by eliminating the stair-step jagged edges often seen on progressive-scan displays.

Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The DCDi chip also offers 3:2 pulldown. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24-frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

AutoPicture lets you change--at the touch of a button--the picture settings (color, tint, contrast, etc.) for various types of programming, including sports, movies, multimedia (games), or weak signals. An audio volume leveler (AVL) keeps the TV sound at an even level for a more consistent, comfortable sound, and a five-band graphic equalizer lets you tailor the sound to your preference. Inputs include a component-video (standard-definition), an S-video, and a composite-video connection, with a .125-inch stereo headphone jack for private listening (headphones not included). What's in the Box TV, stand, remote control, remote batteries, warranty information, and a user's manual.

Progressive scan displays images at double the frequency of standard TVs, minimizing flicker and making the picture easier on your eyes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Meets Our Needs Perfectly, May 6, 2006

This review is from: Philips 20PF7835 20-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV with Stand (Electronics)

We have had this TV for about 2 years, and it has met our needs perfectly. It is located in the master bathroom, and we watch it every morning as we get ready for work (mostly CNN, the Today Show, local news, etc., on digital cable). For this type of programming, the video and audio are more than satisfactory. Would purchase a Philips LCD TV again.

This review is from: Philips 20PF7835 20-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV with Stand (Electronics)

What convinced me to buy this model were the many positive testimonials regarding the quality of this particular company's products. ( I already knew Phillips is good).
I needed a wall-mountable, smallish TV for my guest room, and this is it ! It is light, flat, very sleek. I bought a wallmount for it, mounted it myself, and alas! - pure enjoyment. The cable pictures are crystal clear, even when watched from the bed 10 feet away. I can hook up my earphones, my VCR, even download and look at pictures off my camera. There are many more technical aspects to this little wonder, but I just want to enjoy the viewing, which I do. Now that I got so spoiled, I am ready for a bigger model for MY bedroom ...

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, February 18, 2006

This review is from: Philips 20PF7835 20-Inch LCD Flat-Panel TV with Stand (Electronics)

Upon receipt of TV plugged it in and got good audio but no video. Called Philips technical support, they tried but could not help. They told me that that was all they could do and the TV was "out of warranty". I returned the TV to Amazon for a refund (with no hassle). The net result of this experience was disappointment and the decision to purchase a TV retail and under warranty.
