Toshiba 46YL863 review

 

The Toshiba 46YL863 is a marriage of science and art sporting Tosh's most ambitious picture processing tech yet along with a Jacob Jensen-designed chassis

Crisp Resolution+ enhanced HD ; Understated, classy design ; Range of IPTV services

Crosstalk heavy 3D ; Poor network streaming support ; Places net portal is limited

With its eye-catching Jacob Jenson design and inherently sharp, vibrant high-definition images, the Toshiba 46YL863 is an LED screen that’s comparable with the best of the competition. The user interface is slick and easy to navigate, and it hits all...

Adept at handling HD; needs little adjustment

Slow in use; excessive MPEG noise on Blu-rays

Toshiba 46YL863 review

 

For this review we tested the 46in model in the current YL range, but it's also available in 42in (42YL863) and 55in (55YL863) screen sizes. All models have identical specifications except for their dimensions and power usage. We're confident that...

Its Cevo Engine processing does an excellent job, but it can't fully rectify the shortcomings of its panel

Toshiba Regza 46YL863 46in Smart TV

 

Review Powered by a multitasking image processor and dressed by Danish design house Jacob Jensen, Toshiba's 46YL863 is not your run-of-the-mill 3D TV. Indeed, its maker's herald it as one of the most sophisticated TVs ever. But can it really justify...

55/46YL863 LCD TV

 

The design of the base is the remarkable feature of this LCD TV. The stand with its mirror effect virtually conceals the link between screen and base plate, creating the appearance of a floating screen.

Fantastic picture quality

 

This TV is just fantastic. Lovely and thin, looks great (silver rather than usual black) and has great picture and sound. It seems to smooth out images from dodgy sources (such as not great digital pictures) - looks really good pretty much most of the...
