Good Deal

white Reviewed By: Kenny on 12/3/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: The picture looks great, high resolution, very dark blacks and bright colors. The signal graphic on the hud is helpful. Glow in the dark remote. The tv itself is a nice weight not heavy at all.
Cons: The menus are slow, when switching channels it is so slow! The buttons on the remote are aranged in a strange way. The default settings on this tv are really bad.
Other Thoughts: The image quality looks very poor until you take dynamic contrast ratio off. Also you have to enable pc sound through menus before it works.

Great for the price

white Reviewed By: C_G_K on 12/30/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Excellent clear, crisp HD picture - almost has a 3D look to it in HD. Colors are vibrant and accurate. Blacks are REALLY black, excellent contrast. Capable of 1080p. Lots of connectors, lots of options to play around with in the menus if you are the tinkerer type. SD TV looks good.
Cons: Slow handshake in HD, can take 5 to 10 seconds for the picture to come on (this may be the fault of my DVR from Cox). By default, the sound from the PC input is turned off. Had to dig around to find that setting.
Other Thoughts: High quality TV from a good name. Very good bang for your buck.

Turn Dynamic contrast off

white Reviewed By: on 6/12/2009
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: Those having trouble with changes in brightness/contrast should try turning dynamic contrast and "Dynalight" off. It makes a world of difference when you TV stops flashing due to this subpar idea of Toshiba's.
Cons: This TV is not made of cheese :(

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Good picture quality
Plenty of ports
Not too heavy or bulky
Cons: The dynamic contrast changes can be a little distracting
Other Thoughts: I like this TV a lot. I use it 100% as a computer monitor (hooked up via DVI->HDMI). Video games and movies/TV all look great on it -- HD stuff looks better but standard def stuff looks great as well.

Toshiba 40" LCD HDTV

white Reviewed By: Brian I on 6/4/2009
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Beautiful color and contrast, frame is not bulky, great value.
Cons: Sound is moderate, has frozen a few times, Rock Band/Guitar Hero lag.
Other Thoughts: I have had this TV for about 6 weeks now. Aside from some minor issues, the TV has been working great. The TV has locked up, or frozen, a handful of times. Simply turning it off and on again will make it work again, but I have a slight fear for the future. Otherwise, color and contrast are great. The digital tuner is also very nice so I can pick up HD stations. I use my Xbox 360 on it, and I had to use the in-game lag control setup to play. I never had to do that to another TV or Projector before. I would recommend it to a friend.
