5 Stars – Highly recommended, 22 Sep 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 37RV753B 37-inch Widescreen Digital LCD TV with Full HD 1080p and Freeview HD (Electronics)
Having owned this few a few weeks I though I would share my impressions. When I initially set the TV up I was blown away at the difference between my old 32″ LCD and this, what struck me the most was that the colours were very natural and not over saturated, blacks were deep but retained detail and definition and motion tracking was very clear showing no signs of jittering or blurring moving images (in particular football).
Well a month later and the 37RV is still bringing a smile to my face. The AutoView technology automatically adjusts picture settings depending on room lighting and the light sensor constantly adjusts the backlight giving a constant image depending on varying light conditions.
One of the main reasons I settled on this model was the built-in Freeview HD tuner. I wasn’t disappointed – the high definition broadcasts on BBC HD, ITV1 HD & Channel 4 HD all look great, with nice, vibrant colours, deep blacks, and great picture clarity. The TV does an excellent job of up scaling the non HD channels.
Having looked at many makes other than Toshiba I am extremely happy with this purchase as the design and technology offered by my TV is far in advance of the very competitive price that I paid for it.
I’d highly recommend this TV to anyone.

Fantastic Toshiba, 23 Sep 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 37RV753B 37-inch Widescreen Digital LCD TV with Full HD 1080p and Freeview HD (Electronics)
After looking at the many 5 star reviews on the smaller 32RV753 I decided to buy this larger TV from Amazon.
The picture on this television is fantastic. I was persuaded to go down the route of Freeview HD and I’m not disappointed. Picture quality for the price is outstanding. The colours are amazing and the clarity even in SD looks great. When you combine this with HD then sports, DVDs and video games have never looked better.
The Freeview HD means those not wishing to pay Sky or Virgin subscriptions can still watch BBC HD channel, ITV HD and Channel 4HD (with more to follow) in stunning High Definition.
The HD picture from the internal Freeview HD tuner is amazing. The standard definition is good, but the TV does a fantastic job of getting the best out of what is provided.
The sound is fine for every day use, but like most I run through a surround sound system which adds another dimension. The menu system is logical and is very easy to set-up out of the box.
My parents have bought many Toshiba products in the past and have always rated the quality and this product looks to continue with great features at a great price.

Good TV…..with one very annoying fault, 23 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 37RV753B 37-inch Widescreen Digital LCD TV with Full HD 1080p and Freeview HD (Electronics)
Upon receipt of this TV, I was very pleased with my purchase. Picture was clear, EPG very well laid out, sound was perfectly acceptable. Unfortunately though, their appeared to be a fault with the LCD panel. It ‘buzzes’ when in auto-view or indeed in any other mode, if the back light is set below the 90s. Turning the back light right up alleviated this problem, but the buzz would return whenever the screen displayed a dark image. The buzz is not terrible loud, but it is constant, and once you know it is there, it is very difficult to detune your ears to it.
Having spoken to Toshiba, they assured me it was a fault with the unit, and that I should request a replacement. To their credit, Amazon did a marvellous job of sending out a new TV, and collecting the old one. Unfortunately the replacement unit did exactly the same thing, so it had to go back for a refund.
Five stars for Amazon, and their fantastic customer service. Three stars for this TV, which is a shame, as without the buzzing fault, it would be a cracker. If you want to buy a TV in this range, I believe that the 32″ and 40″ versions do not have the buzz, as it is probably down to the 37″ LCD panel that Toshiba have used (but don’t quote me on that!)
