Toshiba 55ZL2 4K LCD 3D Display

 

This is a well built, nicely designed display. It has a top notch panel, with less than mediocre backlight and a mediocre remote. Although its claim to fame is 3D without glasses, I was far more impressed with its 4K capabilities (particularly with a...

Toshiba 55ZL2 glasses-free 3D TV

 

With glasses-free 3D and 4k resolution, Toshiba's 55ZL2 is a genuine landmark telly.

It supports native quad HD pictures!, It lets you watch 3D without any glasses!, Normal HD pictures look great too

Focus and viewing position issues with 3D, Not currently clear how normal folk will get native 4k material to play on the TV, It costs £7k

The Toshiba 55ZL2 points the way to the next generation of Quad HD TVs

Stunning 3840 x 2160 panel ; 4K digital still images ; Upscaled Full HD performance

Toshiba 55ZL2 review

 

The next generation of TV is here; Ultra HD and glasses-free 3D

Attractive design ; 4K pictures look amazing ; HD pictures also great ; Very good black levels

Expensive ; 4K playback practically impossible ; Some light 'boxing ; Flawed 3D playback

Well here's something you don't see every day. A TV that not only enables you to watch 3D without any glasses on, but also sports a native Quad HD or Ultra HD resolution.

Toshiba 55ZL2 review

 

Four times HD resolution and glasses-free 3D ; outstanding black levels and detail for a screen of this type ; balanced, enjoyable pictures from all sources bar standard-def TV

Glasses-free 3D rather compromised ; total lack of 3840 x 2160 content ; nasty sound ; limited Smart TV functionality. Oh, and the price

A 4K TV and the world's first glasses-free 3D TV, but it comes at a steep price

Toshiba 55ZL2 review

 

Toshiba's 55ZL2 rewrites TV history on not one but two fronts, comes fully-loaded with unprecedented amounts of processing power and looks amazing to boot. In other words, it's the shape of TVs to come. Yet there are a few bumps along the way...

Upscaled 4K content impresses; liberating glasses-free 3D; gorgeous design and build

No 4K support via HDMI; blurring with 3D; expensive

There's no doubt that Toshiba is fully committed to the glasses-free 3D revolution. Following the example set by its Qosmio spec-free laptop, the Japanese

3D without glasses? A resolution four times full HD? Toshiba's 55ZL2 takes two huge technological leaps forward for the (sky-high) price of one

Toshiba 55ZL2 glasses-free 3D TV

 

The Toshiba 55ZL2 is a 55-inch full high definition LCD TV capable of displaying 3D pictures without requiring the viewer wearing 3D glasses. It uses a Quad full HD resolution display of 3840 x 2160. The Toshiba 55ZL2 also features built-in Freeview...

The Toshiba 55ZL2 is a glorious television and a glimpse into the future of the kind of standard to expect from glasses-free 3D TVs in future, but at £7k it’s just too pricey to be good value for it. Not that it stops us wanting one of our own. Toshiba...
