Toshiba 46ZV555D Review: 46” LCD Flat-Panel TV

Up for review: Toshiba 46ZV555D. With the launch of the world’s first upscaling LCD Flat-panel TV, the Toshiba REGZA ZV series is attempting to revolutionize the HDTV market. The 46ZV555D is ultra thin with a sleek bezel look and has many of the high-end features you’d expect to see in more expensive TV’s.

The Toshiba 46ZV555D is one of the first models to introduce Resolution+ technology. As a result, even the standard display images appear with enhanced edge detail and better textural content like that of near HD quality. The 3 HDMI inputs of this LCD TV is a perfect all-digital audio/video interface capable of transmitting uncompressed streams. This High-Definition Multimedia Interface is fully compatible with every digital audio/video source.

With 1920 x 1080 native resolution, the Toshiba 46ZV555D has the highest definition signal currently available. Besides the HD Ready 1080p technology, the new 46ZV555D has a gamut of color enhancement features. Like the Active Vision M100 HD feature, that enhances the picture projection on screen by simply repeating each frame. Or the dynamic contrasts feature which rather than compromising the rendering of high-bright scenes by dimming the backlight, brighten the backlight to give the images a new intensity especially during bright scenes. The enhanced 3-dimensional 20 Watt sounds from stereo speakers produce superb sound quality.
