Manual of product 42WL863B
Editorial note
The Toshiba 42WL863B is a television that stands out for its exceptional image quality thanks to its Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and a dynamic contrast ratio of 7000000:1, providing deep blacks and bright whites for an immersive viewing experience. Additionally, its 4 HDMI ports and 2 USB ports ensure versatile connectivity, making it easy to connect various multimedia devices. Its modern black design and VESA mount compatibility allow for seamless integration into various living spaces. However, some aspects may disappoint. The lack of 3D compatibility limits options for users eager to enjoy three-dimensional content. Furthermore, while the Edge-LED backlighting is effective, it can sometimes cause uneven brightness areas on the screen. The Full HD resolution may also seem a bit outdated compared to the Ultra HD (4K) models available on the market. Finally, the relatively high weight of 17.5 kg can make the installation and movement of the television more difficult. Regarding the user experience, the score is very good at 85, bolstered by the image quality and adjustable smart modes. The performance, with a score of 78, is satisfactory, although the resolution may appear outdated. The design receives a score of 80, and the versatile connectivity is rated at 82. However, the lack of USB 3.0 ports and the product's weight slightly affect the value for money, which is rated at 75. Overall, the Toshiba 42WL863B represents a solid choice for those looking for a television that offers a good visual and sound experience while being aware of its limitations in terms of compatibility and weight.Score details
