Other than that, the specifications are the same. These include a clear, glare-reducing coating that enhances contrast and black aspects of the image, an automatic light sensor that adjusts brightness to save energy based on room conditions, and built-in stereo speakers. It also uses the 600Hz subfield motion image blur reduction to make moving images more smooth. This model is slightly more expensive than the PN42C430.
