Philips have added just a single digit to differentiate their High-End 32in LCD the 32PFL9632D from its predecessor the 32PFL9631D, but don't be fooled by this rather innocuous change. The Philips 32PFL9632D packs an extra technological punch which belies this single digit change.
By rights, the latest incarnation of Philip's Picture Processing Engine should be Pixel Plus HD 4, but the Dutch manufacturer believes there has been enough technological development packed into this system to warrant a completely new name, 'Perfect Pixel Engine'.
A main element of this system, 'HD Natural Motion circuit' improves on 'Digital Natural Motion' by employing greater amounts of processing power to improve motion fluidity.
100Hz processing and 14-bit colour are the other main constituents of the new Perfect Pixel Engine. 100Hz processing inserts an extra picture frame into the equation to take the frame rate up from 50 fps (frames per second) to 100 fps, improving motion handling capabilities. 14-bit colour offers a much larger range of colours and potentially far more realistic and natural images.
Don't be too concerned with the lack of Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) resolution on the Philips 32PFL9632D. You may have heard much recently about the benefits of the extra screen resolution, but for a 32in unit, the potential benefits are negligible. On a larger screen, Full HD comes into its own, but far more important for this size of LCD are how the in-built picture processing elements handle the incoming signal - first indications are that the 32PFL9632D handles it superbly well.
