Pros Widescreen aspect ratio, picture preference memory for each input, outstanding picture...
Cons At this price point there are really none to speak of
Recommended it? Yes

A couple of years ago I bought the Toshiba TW40X81 their then new 40 inch widescreen HDTV ready set, and I thought that I was in widescreen heaven. Well as technology would have it, I guess I was'nt ( although I still have my " little " 40 inch, it's been relegated to living room duty).

Pros Big screen, easy to use, Beautiful picture.
Cons Not bright enough, Susceptible to burn-in.
Recommended it? No

This is a 16x9 rear project television. You have the projection technology that projects and image on a screen.

Picture quality
I think my uncle's statement sums it up. "Projection televisions really have gone a long way." But they still have a little ways to go still. In my opinion... Read full review »

Cons Hard to see from several view points, picture not as good as others
Recommended it? No

My best friend just bought the Toshiba 57 HD Compatable Widescreen Projection Television 57H81, and I just bought a 54" widescreen Sony projection tv. I was at his house a few days ago and we were talking about our TVs. His TV did have a slightly larger picture but it did not look nearly as sharp... Read full review »

Pros Super Bang for the Buck
Cons Remote could be better
Recommended it? Yes

I used to own a Sony 53XBR45 rear view projection which would probably stand up well versus the nonhigh definition sets, but it pales in comparison to this baby. I paid $2,430 delivered with white glove service, and I have zero regrets. For technical aspects please read the other person's review,... Read full review »

Best TV I've ever owned

Pros Beautiful picture, 2 sets of Component inputs, POP mode (see review for explanation)
Cons No built in HDTV decoder, Expensive
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this TV primarily for watching DVD's and I couldn't be happier. The picture quality is gorgeous and at 57", it's larger than life. Sound quality is good also but for the real experience, you'll want to hook it up to a surround sound system.

Some of the cooler features:

Pros Great picture even in lighted areas, Excellent HDTV with set top box
Cons Can't complain

After comparing several 53 - 57 inch widescreens, I opted for the Toshiba 57H81. Good price and the picture looked good even in the stores awful viewing conditions.

Pros Amazing value ($2k at Best Buy), crystal picture, intuitive setup.
Cons You'd better have a big room and really like to watch movies.
Recommended it? Yes

If you are looking for widescreen TV and the picture is the most important aspect, this is the TV for you. Pictures can be misleading in the stores so I did some research. From everything I could tell, their were distinct advantages to the Toshiba - too numerous to mention unless you are an... Read full review »

Recommended it? No

I have had two of these and for the most part am happy. The audio makes a white noise "hissing" at low levels. I think audio design could be much better. Over all it's a good HDTV Wide Screen TV. Read full review »

Just got the set,1 month ago but it is great. Previous reviews go into good detail on the technical aspects. I will just state what an average consumer will see. Good picture with ant/ dish input , will be better once I can get HDTV in my area. Signal from cable and DSS is good but, faces esp.,... Read full review »
