No you get burn out when you have non hd channels on. It is not guaranteed by samsung

Asking about contrast ratio is asking the wrong question. The contrast ratio of this monitor will not tell you how good or bad it looks. This is a beautiful LED monitor. I use this monitor for fast paced gaming with my PS4 and on my custom built PC, as well as every day typing and browsing tasks. It is gorgeous. Not the best that is out there (samsung makes a 3k version of this), but still amazing. It will makes your games incredibly detailed and your normal browsing generally enjoyable, especially since it is stinkin huge!

So which contrast is better? 800:1 or 700:1? What is contrast exactly referring to?

The 42RV530U dosn't have many reviews, Should I get this set or the 42RV530U? The 42RV530U supposedly has a contrast ratio of 15000:1, but its missing the colorburst tech and its cheaper on the Toshiba website.

I tried both, sent this one back. There is noticeable difference in sharpness when zoomed in.

30000:1 vs 50000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, as well as a 8ms vs 6ms response time. i believe the 460 also has 10W speakers as opposed to 5W

I believe the one I purchased had a higher dynamic contrast ratio than the w2072a.

its the DYNAMIC CONTRAST RATIO. the 757 is 10 million to 1, the 857 is 12 million to 1, and the 755 is 4 million to one. if you can afford it the 757 with 10 million to one will give you a far better picture then the 755 at 4 million.

That 5000;1 contrast ratio is native not dynamic. most LCD screens are rated at dynamic and the native is more like 2000;1. For example the new model is native 20,000;1 but dynamic is 1,000,000;1

Toshiba doesn't reveal it. I believe the reason is because there is no universal standard inwhich to properly measure/ascertain the contrast ratio. However REGZA is Toshiba's top of the line LCD TV series, so estimates put it very high around 8500:1. I've seen this TV in person, looks gorgeous and the reviews are solid.

5 vs. 4 wavelength backlight means better color reproduction. 120hz refresh rate means less judder/smoother motion on fast moving action scenes. 15,000 vs. 10,000 Dynamic contrast ratio means deeper blacks (ie, see more picture detail in dark areas of image). I think those are the main differences and justify the higher selling price (but perhaps not to the tune of $1,000-$2,000....$500 difference would be more realistic)

I don't believe it is.... there are ways to adjust lcd contrast but that's it

unless you are sitting extremely close to the TV visually you will not be able to tell the difference in 1080P and 720P until you move to the 42" tv line. The biggest difference you will notice in this TV would be the contrast ratio at 10,000:1 thats amazing, the white black contrast will stun you.

That is the true contrast ratio. Other monitors that claim things like 8,000,000:1 are using adaptive dimming and other tricks to attain that. The proof is in the picture, and this monitor has excellent picture. A calibration solution with hardware puck is A MUST though!
