Awesome Deal!!! February 10, 2010 Brian D. Wilkins 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Couldn't have asked for anything better... especially for the price. Had it out of the box and watching TV within a half hour.
Stunner and outstanding value for the money January 17, 2010 George A. Alexander (Austin, TX, USA) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
Paid $799 with no shipping through Amazon. Great deal, great TV, buy it and enjoy it. My only 4 star is about sound, but candidly I didn't really give it a tryout. Runs through an audio system.

This is a great tv. It was a snap to connect. My mom liked it, so she bought one too.
Good size and value November 5, 2009 Rollie (San Jose) 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
The Good: I bought this TV set after much research and viewing every set I could online and at the stores. This set beat out Samsung and Sony models in its class, and was hundreds less. This set has great audio speakers that adjust to loud volumes such as commercials. Black levels are great. Colors pop. Skin tones are spot on. This set is more "tweakable" than others. You can elect to have antiblurring without dejudder. I looked side by side at several stores to compare this model and it is superior to Sony and Samsung pq. Bigger is better. I don't have room for a 46 inch and this 42 inch beats out the 40 inch sets.
The Bad: I was unlucky and my set had two dead pixels right out of the box. After two months, I got a second set, exact same model. The second set had audio lip syncing problems on one channel and buzzing sounds once a day. The dead pixel set had no audio problems. I ended up keeping the dead pixel set. The fine print under the Toshiba warranty says if you get one dead pixel or 100 dead pixels, it is not covered under the warranty. I can't see my dead pixels unless there is a white background and I look for them. This set is perfect in many ways, except not pixel perfect.
It was a bad experience to start out with, to have two sets, the same model with problems.
Great TV July 26, 2009 Scottie doo (CA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I ended up buying this tv at Best Buy (they matched the price that Amazon provided) 2 months ago. The image quality is great!
I am a bit confused, I thought that the Xbox 360 was not able to produce 1080p resolution (I have the white one with component connections), but the tv says otherwise?
The only other issue was with the sound(why it only rates 4 stars from me). When I first bought the TV I was using its speakers. After an hour of playing a Blu-ray movie the sound would sometimes start freaking out on me. I would start hearing echoes and robotic type noises that got progressively worse. When I would turn the TV off the Blu-Ray player would also turn off so i would have to wait 3-5min before resuming my movie. After rebooting, everything was fine. Once I hooked up the surround sound system I have never had any problems.
Once reading the manuel, I learned that the Toshiba logo can also be turned off, it got annoying sometimes during films.
Beware surround sound users, some receivers downgrade the image quality. You will also need to buy another HDMI cable (Blu-Ray player to receiver, then the other cable from the receiver to the tv) and make sure they will support 240hz!
