We all know that when you have a 42-Inch HD LCD TV it will not give the same kind of performance than you would get from a Plasma. However, all that has changed with the Philips 42PF9831D, this 42-Inch LCD will outperform many types of Plasma that are on the market today.

The problem that LCD’s used to have was their lack of contrast and poor image capabilities. So now the Philips 42PF9831D will give a more smoother picture and you will not get any of that colour bleed or motion blur that many of us were used to with an LCD TV.

The technology that Philips have used to overcome this problem is called Pixel Plus 3 HD, what this does is sorts out your standard-def signal so that you get a HD-esque quality instead. Add that to the new Ambilight lighting system and there you have it an LCD that performs as well as Plasma.
