Robert, Dundee , “A fully satisfied customer”

Score 10.0/10

+ I was 100% satisfied with this Toshiba television. The picture quality with the 100hz feature is a joy to view and the sound quality is excellent. I have not fully explored all the possible custom settings which are available via the menus, as I have been satisfied with the default settings which were set when unpacked and plugged in. In addition to the formentioned excellent features, this TV is beautifully constructed and would compliment any lounge.

- None.

Robert, Solihull

Score 9.0/10

+ Full HD and 100Hz with good range of adjustments via menu(s) to personalise and optimise picture. I particularly like fact that base colours can be individually adjusted as well as tints to get as near to exact requirements as possible. With Sky HD the results are brilliant, and the inbuilt DTV tuner also provides excellent reception. Sound is quite good with adequate adjustments provided for base plus output for optional sub which I have not yet used. The gloss black finish and relatively slim frame of the LCD (37inch) is very acceptable. Installation and initial set up was simple, whilst the instruction manual provides additional reading for more detailed adjustments. My wife and I are well pleased with both performance and appearance of this Toshiba LCD TV.

- None so far.

+ Perfect super slim HD 1080p 100Hz TV for wall hanging.
Great TV ideal for small living room, Bedroom or Kitchen.

- My only slight disappointment (and I'm really picky) was the low resolution menu for the DTV guide, plus one of the TV's onboard menus, strangely all the others are High resolution, which is a little odd.

+ Hi definition looks great.
Has more than enough inputs for PS3, freeview, DVD, VCR etc.
Looks stylish, and the stand supplied swivels.
Easy to setup.
Good price for the specifications - 100hz, 1080p etc.

- Freeview can look poor, but that is the fault of the compressed video used in SD broadcasting.
The picture settings will need to be changed from the factory settings, as everything is set to 100 which produces a picture that is lower quality than a calibrated picture.

+ Fantastic TV for the price; HD looks stunning and normal SD viewing is ok too. The 100Hz makes a difference to viewing too, but my main reason for purchasing was for console gaming which is sublime in full 1080p.

- Needs some tatting to get the screen 'just so', but well worth it. Also, the sound is a little tinny but not too bad. Finally, I'm not sure if this set has true optical sound out - so far, no joy but I could be wrong; I've not had a massive amount of time to check.

HD is where the tv is really good.......blueray is incredible and no motion blur of note (only watched bond film so far). Again i would strongly advise playing with settings as way too bright when first started.

- The inputs on the side of the tv are not seperate from the component/vga, so with having my xbox on component and wii on side i cannot use the xbox without unplugging side connections which is annoying and rather bad design.
SD quality picture is average really, bit pixelated but very wachable.

Score 8.0/10

+ Lots of gubbings for the price. Very good picture for every day viewing. easy to set up. Have not seen a better picture for the price. have connected it to surround sound system. Prision Break, 24, HD, surround sound cannot be beaten (apart from a few jars down the local)

- Not the best for live football when sometimes ghosts when picture is panning, but good when close up. Too many options for tuning the picture can be confusing exactly what each function does, On the other hand hours of fun playing about with the picture quality if that is what floats your boat!
