Toshiba 40RV525R

 

The 40-inch Toshiba 40RV525R 1080p LCD HDTV is not perfect- it has several picture and audio quality flaws- but for the price, it is hard to find a better model of this size to beat. If you are looking to save money without losing out on a bigger...

Improvable- picture and audio quality are substandard to expensive models

The Toshiba 40RV525U 1080p LCD TV is one of Toshiba‘s most successful HDTV‘s, which is a renowned name in manufacturing and marketing advanced electronic and electrical products worldwide. This LCD TV is equipped with several highly advanced features...

Great TV. Bought it in 2008 and still has an excellent picture quality. I upgraded the firmware via the USB port in December 2010 and now I have no sync problems with my newer Bluray player that I bought in December 2010.

Good TV

 

This was my first TV post college, and I have to say I'm very satisfied. Its a great value buy for someone looking for something to last, but at the same time definitely not a videophile's first choice.

Great size to price ratio. Good quality at price range

There are two separate options for dynamic brightness/ contrast, neither of which work particularly well and can be hard to find in the menus to turn off

awesome tv

 

a great tv with a few problems that can be easily fixed or over looked.

great quality ; affordable ; great picture ; tons of hook ups ; modern design ; easy to set up ; 3 hdmi ports ; 1 pc port ; built in tuner ; easy menus ; tons of ways to change audio,video etc

built in speakers are not great, but i use surround anyways ; casing shows fingerprints and scratches easily ; remote sometimes doesnt work if not at specific angle

Great TV for the Money

 

I own the 37RV525R which is the 37" Version of this TV, Purchased at NewEgg, Shipping was fast and the TV arrived undamaged, although the box did had a fist size hole in it, I was Lucky there.

Great Picture, Accurate Colors, Great Price, Has both Digital and Analog Audio outputs, 4 HDMI, Speakers are good, not great, I can also use it as a computer monitor and to watch streaming HD from Laptop to TV via HDMI. Has a Native Mode

Piano Black finish scratches easily, use only a microfiber cloth to clean. Remote has to be at the right angle to work. No other real complaints

works as intended

 

Automatically senses input and switches to that device. Not all LCD TVs do this!

Works as advertised. I also own the 37" version that has a better picture in my opinion. Bought this one for the father in law. He likes it

picture just seems kinda blaw compared to smaller 60mhz LCD TVs even after fiddling with settings

Not good as expected

 

Price at the moment of purchase

Remote control sometimes fails. Image with too much noise even with the maximum reduction of noise. I have a sony bravia and the image is much better with the same signal (Comcast). My advice is not to buy a TV online, the best is to go to the store...

Great for the price

 

I've seen people complain about UPS delivery. My set was delivered by UPS in perfect condition. I was not home for the initial delivery, and the driver came around again on the SAME DAY, said he figured I wouldn't want to wait or drive far to the UPS...

once a month I'll turn on the set and the picture won't come on, and I need to unplug and re-plug in the set to fix the issue ; off angle viewing gets whiter ; VGA input doesn't go up to 1920x1080 ; 480i picture terrible (make sure your media player /...

Great HDTV for the price!

 

Great investment TV for the price to add another TV to your house that won't cost an arm and a leg and still be solid picture quality.

Did a lot of searching around and this was the largest TV with the best features for the price. Lots of inputs and runs in 1080p at 60hz. Refresh rate is fine for gaming. This TV makes Bad Company 2 look amazing on 360, such a huge jump up from SD. 40"...

Colors seem a bit neon to me. Reds are a bit too high with no real way to lower them out fully to my liking
