Reviews of Toshiba 52XF550U

  1. Toshiba 52XF550U LCD TV

    Reviewer: UltimateAVmag.com
    1 July 2008

    At $3300, the Toshiba is $100 more than the Samsung LN52A750 and $700 less than the Sony KDL-52XBR4 . Of the three, I prefer the Samsung with its better blacks, frame interpolation, connectivity features, and user interface. The Toshiba beats the Sony's effective blacks, and while their menu systems are very different, I don't particularly like either one. The Toshiba has a much thinner bezel than either of the others, which could be important for buyers with limited... Read more

    Vast Screen Real Estate Highlights Noisy Images We loved this 52-inch Toshiba's narrow-bezel case. But its LCD panel pulsed visibly between dark and light movie scenes — a result of Toshiba's DynaLight feature varying the set's backlight in an attempt to increase contrast. Its noise reduction seemed ineffective on our test video, and the set's 120 Hz film stabilization mode left some judder when we popped in a test DVD. Well, at least the remote's easy to use in the...

    My Toshiba 52" [...] Was very easy to set up, and the remote is fairly intuitive to use. I would most definitly recommend both the TV and ABT to friends. When I get ready to purchase another TV, it will most assuredly be from Abt. Read more

  2. Annoying red pixel in the right of the screen

    I wouldn't recommend any Toshiba lcd tv's. After a couple of months of use, a red pixel started to appear approximately 5 inches from the right panel, centered vertically. I called for support, and all they said that this was a "feature"; well, I call it a defect. I have a Sharp Aquos 32" about 4 years old and a Pioneer 43" plasma over 5 years old now, none of them have any problems. Stick with Sony, Sharp or Pioneer but stay away from Toshiba or you'll be stuck with... Read more
