Philips Cinema 21:9

Philips is preparing to market a screen from the innovative features. Philips Cinema 21:9 is in fact a powerful 56-inch TV, with the size of cinema screens, or 21:9.

It is a film for television then, the first model in the world in cinemascope, can play movies in 2.35:1 or 2.40:1 full screen, ie without the traditional black bands placed on the sides top and bottom of our traditional TV.

This Full HD LCD TV in fact is working on the format of the original film, which are born in 21:9 format, and are then adjusted to 16:9 or 4:3 traditional monitors. The problem however is that if the films are born in this format, the television broadcasts are still linked to 4:3, then there are real doubts about the applicability of the format of Philips Cinema 21:9. The risk is from a deformed hand to see the broadcasts, the other to see them with two large vertical bands.

The market however seems to give reason to the Dutch, given that many other companies, such as Texas Instruments and Epson seem to want to take the road of 21:9. For now we should wait for the commercialization of this model, which will start next spring in Germany, Belgium, UK and France, so that they can directly experience the features and applicability to the actual products offered by the film that that on television. For now we have to limit ourselves to information on the Philips official site, devoted entirely to the new product.
