David, Dunfermline

Score 10.0/10

+ Apart from picture and sound performance which are top class, the bezel, which is claimed to be the thinest in the world, makes a tremendous difference to the size and appearance of the set e.g. my son has a Pioneer 40'' which is actually wider than my 46'' Toshiba.

- None that I can think of at the moment.

+ The size of the screen fits into a television thats the same size as a 42 inch LCD. The sound is fantastic and the 3 HD sockets and 2 scarts are more than enough to connect your Sky HD, PS3 and Xbox 360 and your dvd player

- None that I can think of

Score 10.0/10

+ I chose this product because of its sleek unobtrusive picture frame design. Most others have a huge amount of frame around the screen which spoils the whole look. It enhances the wall in new room we have just had built.

Full HD TVs have screen resolutions of 1080p and can output at least 24 frames per second.

This figure is designed to tell you how much difference there is between dark and light colours on the TV. It is quoted as a ratio, between the brightest white and the darkest black. 500:1 means the brightest white is 500 times more bright than the darkest black. Plasma screens have historically boasted better contrast ratios than LCD screens.

Manufacturer's Description

If ever an LCD TV defined desirability it would be Toshiba’s new REGZA XF Series. Stunning, head-turning looks are the result of cutting edge engineering techniques presenting an extremely narrow picture frame, finished in glorious piano-black.
