Toshiba 40G300U

 

The Toshiba 40G300U ($899 MSRP) is a 40-inch LCD television that offers a decent number of features, but seems to fall a little short of the competition. What features there are, however, are useful and well-implemented

This isn't the most attractive TV. It's a little fat in the back, with a stubby stand and a thick bezel. The remote control is a mess of bright, white buttons, but because it's a fully programmable universal remote we can accept the aesthetic...

A scientific, in-depth analysis with side-by-side comparisons

The Toshiba 40G300U ($899 MSRP) is not a perfect TV, and not even the best LCD at the same price point (that would probably go to the Samsung LN40C630). It offers surprisingly deep black levels, but we noticed issues with color temperature consistency...

Part of Toshiba's 2010 lineup, the G300 Series is a mid-level series that lacks some of the higher-end features found in the company's top-shelf offerings, such as LED backlighting, ClearScan 240Hz, Resolution+, and NET TV. The G300 Series includes...

This TV has a 1080p resolution and will accept 24p sources via its HDMI inputs ; ClearFrame 120Hz technology effectively reduces motion blur, with a separate Film Stabilization mode to address film judder ; LCDs can be very bright, which makes them a...

This TV uses a traditional CCFL backlight, so its black level willlikely not be as deep as you'll find in the better full-array LED-basedLCDs with local dimming ; LCD viewing angles are not as good as you'll find with a plasma TV ; The 40G300U lacks 3D...

The 40G300U doesn't offer all the benefits youget with higher-end Toshiba models, but it is a 1080p display with fourHDMI inputs and the all-important 120Hz technology needed to reducemotion blur in an LCD. Plus, it boasts digital-media perks like...

HDMI issues.

 

I paid about $580 to my door. You get what you pay for, so other than the cropping issue I'm happy with it.

Its my first LCD tv, so I can't really compare it to anything else. Looks cool. I use it as a second monitor on my computer to watch animae and youtube

Two eggs because I have two problems with it ; The remote sucks. Buttons are hard to press and I can only get the volume to work ; HDMI input from my computer gets cropped down to about 1800x990. Thought it was my video card, but I tried it with a...
