TOSHIBA HDTV LCD 42HL196 - Ahhh! The Joy of Legible Captions is here at last.

Date of Review:  May 29, 2008
The Bottom Line: A surprisingly versatile design that should last a while. This one is kind to beginners. And a challenge to experienced users. Many extra functions to learn about.
Review: WHAT IS IT?

6/30/08 Revision: While exploring HDMI Connections and results, I noticed an Optical Sound Port in the lower rear panel of the Toshiba Flat Panel TV. With HDMI, one gets both Video and Audio signals with one cable; but the TV...

Hard to beat for the price

Date of Review:  Oct 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: It's not perfect, but darn close... for the money it is hard to find something better.
Review: The price, features and specs drew me to this model over others I looked at. I really liked the styling of the Sony XBR3, but not enough to shell out an extra $1500.

1080i and1080P

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2007
Review: I just bought this TV; I am very satisfied with it so far. I read with a lot of concern all your bad comments about what is advertised by Toshiba about the 1080p and 1080i.
The TV works perfectly, very nice image.
After all your bad...

DO NOT BUY THIS TV UNTIL YOUR READ THIS

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2007
Review: Toshiba blatantly lies in there advertising on this particular model. The box and manual say 1080p however this is done by up converting the 1080i signal to 1080p. The TV will not accept a true 1080p input. This was the case when I tried hooking up...

Toshiba 42HL196 42 in. HDTV LCD

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2007
The Bottom Line: Price vs. picture quality can't be beat. Has inputs for anything I could possibly want to attach.
Review: This "i" and "p" business doesn't mean a thing to me as far as quality goes. I DID notice that the 1080 makes a BIG difference over the 720 in picture quality (I'm told that you can tell the difference only at 37" and above). A 720 picture looks...

AMAZING TV

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2008
Review: Well I got this at an incredible price... actually from Sears. TV is crystal clear picture! The picture quality is perfect. I know someone who has a 60" Sony and this Toshiba kicks its butt. Quality of 1080P is amazing...To hook it up to a regular...

Product is falsely advertised by Toshiba, shame on you.

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2007
Review: This TV went back when I attempted to drive 1080P HDMI signal from my computer. All inputs are 1080i or lower (obviously). The TV upconverts 1080i to 1080P. Sorry not good enough when you advert this as 1080P.

BIG DIFFERENCE!!! Hello, what...
