Editorial note
The Toshiba 42YL985G is a television that offers a pleasant visual experience thanks to its Full HD display quality (1920 x 1080 pixels), ensuring vibrant colors and precise details.

With its DLNA compatibility, this model facilitates integration with other multimedia devices in the home, and its versatile connectivity, including 4 HDMI ports and 2 USB ports, is a significant advantage. However, several drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. First, the lack of support for 3D technology may disappoint users seeking a three-dimensional experience. Additionally, the Toshiba 42YL985G does not have a built-in DVD player, which limits movie viewing options without external devices. Although it offers Wi-Fi connectivity, it does not provide Smart TV features, restricting access to online streaming services. The audio quality, while adequate, may be deemed insufficient by some, particularly due to the absence of a subwoofer. Finally, its weight of 15 kg may make installation and handling less convenient. In terms of performance, the product receives a solid score of 78, while the display quality is particularly appreciated with a score of 85. The classic design of the television is rated at 75, although its weight may pose challenges during installation. The value for money is satisfactory with a score of 80, and the audio features are considered interesting, also reaching a score of 80. The user interface is intuitive, but the absence of certain features limits the overall experience, with a usability score of 70. Finally, the user manual is comprehensive and facilitates handling, with a score of 90. In summary, the Toshiba 42YL985G is a good choice for those looking for a television focused on display quality and connectivity, but it may not be suitable for those desiring a more immersive experience or modern Smart TV features.Score details
