Manual of product 55VL963
Editorial note
The Toshiba 55VL963 is a television that offers a satisfying visual experience thanks to its Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing sharp and detailed images. Its 2D-3D converter is an asset, allowing for the transformation of 2D content into immersive experiences. With four HDMI ports, connectivity is also well thought out, making it easy to connect multiple multimedia devices. Additionally, its energy efficiency class A+ contributes to appreciable energy savings. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The absence of 3D technology may disappoint users seeking a deeper immersion. Similarly, the lack of Smart TV features limits access to online streaming services, which can restrict modern entertainment options. While the resolution is adequate, it may seem insufficient compared to 4K models, especially on larger screens. Furthermore, the Edge-LED backlighting can sometimes cause uneven brightness, affecting the visual experience, while the audio power of 20 W may require an external audio system for optimal sound immersion. In terms of scores, the user experience is rated overall positively with a score of 75, although performance, rated at 70, could be improved. The design receives a good score of 80 for its modern and sleek appearance. The value for money is also interesting, amounting to 85, especially with the features offered. Finally, support and documentation are well-rated, enhancing the ease of use of the product. In summary, the Toshiba 55VL963 positions itself as a solid option for those looking for a television with classic features, while being aware of its limitations.Score details
