The 16:9 plasmas include a real black drive system, a deep black filter, a super real gamma system, adaptive automatic gain control (AGC), motion picture disturbance (MPD), noise reduction, 3-D color management and active interlace/progressive (I/P) conversion.

For the HD panels, the TH-65PHD7UY and TH-50PHD7UY have a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, and the TH-42PHD7UY delivers 1024x768 pixels. The TH-42PWD7UY and TH-37PWD377UY offer a resolution of 852x480 pixels. The units can display 1080p 24p/24sf, 1080i 50/60, 720p 50/60, 480p/i and 576 p/i and offer support for VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA and UXGA resolution.
