What is EDTV? EDTV stands for Enhanced Definition Television. EDTVs are digital TVs with higher display performance than Standard Definition TVs, but lower than High Definition TVs. See the HDTV glossary for more information. A new way to look at television. This technological marvel offers advanced plasma display technology in the form of the world's first television built to hang on your wall. At 4.3" deep, the Philips Flat TV projects a bright, uniform image, over a viewing angle of up to 160 degrees.
