Toshiba 15LV505 15.6-inch TV  meets our needs

We are very pleased with our new Toshiba 15.6 inch LCD TV purchased in Jan., 2009.  It is styled nicely and fits on a shelf in our kitchen perfectly.  It is a plus that it includes a Qam tuner.  We are picking up all the local stations on Cable in HD.  Other stations appear to be HD as well.  To our surprise we can bring in 50 music stations. It's almost like having XM Radio.  Our taste is classical, jazz, mood music. However, all styles of music are available.  When listening, the screen lists the music and performer.  Great!  Some have complained about the amount of time this Toschiba needs to switch channels.  It's no problem to us. After the first day we carefully went though the entire channel list.  We wrote down the channels, networks, etc beyond our normal cable offering.  These are the channels in 5 digits that the Qam tuner pick up for you.  We've typed up the list, and now we don't waste time searching.  We know exactly the station number we desire which is very useful when you have stations like 85.600. A final plus is that it is energy star rated.  We're very happy with this TV.

We were replacing an older Sharp LCD TV (about 7 years old) with this Panasonic of the same size. The picture quallity is very good, a slight tendancy to be on the "dark side" no matter how it is adjusted....very acceptable. The only down side is the screen....it can be used as a mirror. We purchased the LCD model because the screens are usually better (less reflection) than plasma.....and planned on using it in a room with lots of windows. Needless to say, the old Sharp is in that room now. I'm very surprised the screens got worse over a period of time. We were planning on purchasing a much larger Panasonic plasma 3D TV in the near future, but are reconsidering the purchase now.

I purchased this 32" Samsung about 5 months ago based on the Consumers Reports review, the reviews here on Amazon, and my positive past experience with Samsung products. So far, this HDTV has met my expectations.

Basic features yet Toshiba quality and remote on this HDTV with a built in side DVD player.  I found the sound to be fine;  there is output for headphones or digital audio out if you want more.  Stable base and simple to set up.  Solid product.

We have had this TV for several months and it still seems as good as the reviews that prompted us to buy it. The delivery was a little problematic as the delivery company sent a single 68 year old person with the unit - which is quite large with the shipping material. We were finally able to get it inside,removed from the box and set up and it has worked flawlessly since. I will have no hesitation about ordering large(and fragile)items from Amazon in the future.

Nice TV.  Clear picture.  Durable mounts.  Skinny/ Thin unit.  Remote has control of all features.  Working out well for my family in our fifth wheel attached to an adjustable arm.  12 plug included.  110 volt adapter included.

We needed a quality TV that would fit in a small space. This 15 inch unit was exactly it.  It fits perfectly in a corner of our kitchen. It takes up little room and looks good too. Great picture quality and pretty good sound quality. This unit has the added bonus of having a built-in DVD player which we mostly use to play music CDs. We are very happy with this purchase!

I bought this TV to put in my office and I have no complaints.  The image is clear, the price was right, all the inputs work fine, the sound is very good, and the overall appearance of the TV is fine and appropriate for an average sized office.

I purchased the 42" Toshiba LED TV a little over a month now and everyone in my house is still enjoying it's crystal clear picture, ease of use, and quick access to the net.  The TV was easy to set up and the remote control is also easy to use.  I like the fact you can simply switch to net TV with the touch of a button.  I would definitely recommend this TV.

The only small problems I ran into are:
1.  The YouTube net connection is very slow while all the other net applications work fine.
2.  The audio out on the TV to connect it to your audio system is digital and my receiver/amplifier are analog.  I had to purchase a converter box.  This of course wouldn't be necessary if you had a digital audio system.

You are buying a small TV with a DVD player.  It is a 720p screen.  That is fine for what we use it for.  Everything works as expected and the sound is adequate.  I feel it is a good value.

The Toshiba 39L1350U LED HDTV is a great TV.  Setup was easy, excellent picture, and very good sound.
On top of that the price was great and delivery beat the estimated delivery date.  Can't get much better than that.

I've had this small TV just over a year so far, so cannot yet comment on long-term reliability. (But I will if I have the same problems I've had with one of Toshiba's very expensive laptop computers, grrrr.)

The picture, to me (I'm not especially taken with TV watching) is excellent. I use it in a situation a foot or two from my eyes. Normally I wear glasses but find I can view the picture without them - it is that sharp. There have been complaints about the sound quality but I have no problem even without the volume up all the way. I am planning, frankly, to add exterior speakers, but have put this off because the original configuration is adequate.

I totally love the convenience of the built-in DVD player. I like the understated appearance. One note: Do be careful of the screen. I accidentally hit it with a metal buckle that I didn't realize was swinging from a piece of clothing, and that made a mark that apparently can't be fixed. I do notice the mark when viewing although it mostly bothers me because it reminds me of my mistake.

Like many purchasers of this TV, one of main motivations was that it would just fit in our existing cabinet. I know many would say 'get a new cabinet' but we don't worship TV, 40" was plenty big enough and we really like our cabinet. I also like Toshiba and had previously purchased a couple other Toshibas (to replace Sony's that had expired before their time) with good results. I am not a cognoscenti and some of the other reviews here and on the web will be more informative for experts but I think the picture is great. The detail in the HD feeds from our cable provider are just stunning; too bad they are wasted on talk shows for the most part but the occasional sporting event makes viewing a really enjoyable experience. DVDs, of course, look very good. SD material can look pretty bad depending on the channel but we mostly use the TV for movies. I agree with others that the remote is not the strong point of this model. I particularly dislike the favorites browser and thought it was done better on the other Toshibas we own. I also look at the Mitsubishi but I think we made the right choice. I don't think you will be disappointed with this TV.

I also purchased this TV during the Lighting Deals of Black Friday week. The picture is very bright and colors are very rich. Settings are pretty much user-friendly. The tuner is able to pick up regular channels from the cable service, without a box, as well as a fair amount of over-the-air digital channels. The sound is adequate for our bedroom setting, which is where they are located. I'm very glad with the fact that the TV is basically a 12V device so it's pretty efficient at power consumption. I actually bought two of these sets for my kid's bedrooms.
There is one thing, however, that has me having second thoughts; it has no standard VESA hookups for a wall mount. There are 4 screw holes on the back of the unit, arranged in a rectangular shape, 35mm apart vertically and 200mm apart horizontally. The TV comes with two small bracket adapters. Each bracket gets attached to each of the vertically-arranged set of screws and, in turn, each bracket provides one screw hole for a wall mount, for a total of 2 screw holes available. This means that, from what I've gathered so far, the TV is supposed to be held by only those two screws, as opposed to 4, like a standard VESA wall mount bracket. I purchased these TV's with the intention of wall-mounting them to save some space. Probably the only reason why I won't give it a 5 star rating of satisfaction is the fact that I haven't been able to locate a suitable wall mount. I even wrote a note on the TCLUSA.com website about the issue, but so far no response.
If anyone out there has found away to hang this TV to a wall, that I can't seem to figure out, please let me know. Hopefully I'm not the only one in this predicament.

I saw this tv at my local Brandsmart and was impressed; it had perhaps the best picture among standard LED tvs. An LG rep said the LB5800 series use an IPS panel with full array LED backlighting. With help from another Amazon member, we were able to determine the 39" uses an MVA panel, while the 32" uses an IPS panel (see comments). On LG's claim of full array LED backlighting, I assume it's valid, perhaps without local dimming as found on the LB6300 series.

I wanted a large screen gaming monitor to sit on my desk. This tv is pretty much all screen so no wasted space. Legs are sturdy, metal with plastic finish. Powered off, the screen is dark and not quite glossy but not quite matte. Colors are bright and vibrant, blacks are deep, screen is bright and uniform.

As a monitor, the 60hz panel works because input via HDMI from seems limited to 60hz anyway, meaning I could not overclock the 60hz refresh rate using several methods. I suggest not getting hung up on advertised refresh rates though, screen is fast and blurring is minimal even during gaming. TV does have a gaming mode which turns off video processing. While I can't assign a value to input lag, I can say this tv feels more responsive than my old Samsung with no gaming mode. Desktop text is fairly sharp, but doesn't compare to an IPS 1900x1200 monitor.

I find these settings optimal for monitor/gaming:

backlight = 80
contrast = 80
brightness = 50
color = 50
sharpness = 10
picture mode = game
energy saving = off

On general TV functions, menus are easy to navigate, Netflix streaming tuned in at HD with no buffering. Sound is okay, it's bottom firing, with some voice clarity lost behind the screen. Sound bar recommended for best experience. 120 motion index makes movement, especially people moving across screen seem somewhat animated, looks good though.

Lastly, LG uses sturdy Styrofoam packing and box material. Box is study, corners hold fast, box center doesn't yield much even with decent pressure applied. Easy assembly and menu config, up and running in under ten minutes.

We were not planning on buying another TV any time soon.
2 years ago we purchased a 42inch Sony flat screen TV, was over $1300 on sale when we purchased it.
Its a nice TV and we really enjoy it in our living room. But when we saw this Sansui TV on sale at a local store for under $400 we had to pick it up for an additional TV in our computer room to replace an older tube TV.
The picture is very clear. The sound is actually better than our Sony.
The remote control is very easy to understand and work, and the channels come up very fast. There doesnt seem to be a delay.
Its hard to tell in the picture of the but the bottom of the TV is actually silver, I like it, but if you are looking for an all black TV this won't work.

First off, no, it's not really a 1080p TV, Toshiba claim that it converts the image to that. If that's important to you, look elsewhere.

However, if you're ok with a good quality 1080i screen, this is a good buy.  The various inputs work, and you can get more than the VGA 1026x768 VGA res if you have a DVI video card on your PC and a DVI-HDMI cable, only the D-sub connector is limited.  We have ours connected to Cable, Xbox 360, Apple TV, and Wii no problem. The picture quality is good, and the TV is nice to watch.

The network connectivity is a bit limited.  The TV can display images, and can play Mp3 files, but only seems to read the top level folder, and there are limitations on the number of files it can cope with.  There are dozens of better ways to get those features though and  I'm not sure who would be swayed by this as a feature anyway.  I suspect the programmers got bored just making menus and decided to stick that in!

It's a nice TV overall, and well worth it the asking price, just don't be surprised when it won't take 1080p inputs.
