Great flatscreen LCD
Purchased this about 3 weeks ago now. As advertised, no surprises. This is an inexpensive set with a lot of capabilities. Nice screen: bright and sharp. It's been used mainly for movies and some gaming, not caring for TV fare.

Problem when watching sport
Update to my review below, I sent this telly back
Unfortunately vertical stripes which I believe are known in the trade as vertical banding were apparent every time the camera scans during a football match. I changed the scart leads, no difference, adjusted the backlight which improved things slightly but eventually it got so annoying, even though the effect...

Great flatscreen LCD, 21 Jun 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
Purchased this about 3 weeks ago now. As advertised, no surprises. This is an inexpensive set with a lot of capabilities. Nice screen: bright and sharp. It's been used mainly for movies and some gaming, not caring for TV fare.
Just some helpful info to complement existing reviews and product info:
-The front, lit 'Toshiba' logo can be turned off. It's a menu option.
-The on/off button is on the left, while many of the direct-plugin ports (SCART, HDMI, USB, etc.) are on the right side, in addition to another series of connections on a back panel, near the right side. For some this might matter a lot.
-Excellent, user-friendly menu controls, with different display modes (movie, 'dynamic', standard, etc.). 'Dynamic' is the brightest, perhaps too hyper-real.
-Assembled in UK (at least this unit).
-Really easy to put together; has a sturdy base.
-Requested one-day service, and it arrived right on time, coming from Swansea.
-A small cloth is provided to wipe down screen and frame panel.
-The sound is decent and can go fairly loud, but remains a little flat and could be better (hence 4 stars). Sound can be customised, however, and there's a handy choice to return to factory default settings in most menu options.
-The remote does not have lighted buttons, which would have been useful. Back on the plus side, the major buttons are nicely sized, though the remote itself is still comfortably handheld (vs. some of the long or wide behemoths with all manner of unused/unintelligible buttons).
Verdict? Definitely recommended. You don't have to empty your coffers, and not so garish for smaller sized rooms. Very good, user-friendly performer.

Awesome Full HD TV for a Good Price, 23 July 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
I bought this Tele after weeks and weeks of shopping around. I couldn't decided weather to go for the Full 1080p or not. The difference in price of the Tv's was about £100. I decided to go for this TV because more and more third generation games for the PS3 are releasing at 1080p. It also takes into account the increasing number of HDMI product on the market and the likelyhood of you getting them by giving you 4 HDMI slots. After all the theortical parts of the TV being tip top, I then started using it. It is fantastic, perfectly crisp picture, with very vivid bright and rich colours. The Freeview menu is very stylish, and the remote is nice and compact. I would recomend to anyone wanting to get a 32" Full HD TV which will last for a long time into the future, for a very cheap price.

A lot of Toshiba for little dosh, 7 July 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
I've had this set for a couple of weeks now, as a second set. The previous week I had owned an expensive Sony which was sent back due to a horrible backlight problem. After upgrading to a 42" (expensive) plasma last year, I couldn't stand watching fuzzy freeview anymore. I think that 32" is about the maximum size for freeview. I am extremely happy with this set, with so many picture options it caters for all tastes, there are multible variables for each picture setting, just about everything can be tweaked. SD pictures via 'S', RGB, or hdmi are crisp and clear. The set recalls each inputs' last setting. The meta brain picture suite includes Active Vision II, and resolution+, which has 6 levels including 'off'. HD pictures are excellent, via hdmi or component, with really dark blacks and the brightest colours. Freeview pictures are perfectly clear, the resolution+ really does help, and it works on all inputs including HDMI. Sound quality is not the best, but there is good depth, and adequate volume for most programming, without rattling speakers. A lot of TV for the money, and better than the far more expensive Sony. I don't know how much of the set is manufactured in the UK, but at least it is assembled here, which has to be of some help to our economy. It the highest specified Toshiba 32" TV, not a stripped down version. At around £400, this has to be the best value set currently on the market.

Excellent TV, 26 Sep 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
This is an excellent TV with a superb picture quality. It has two scarts, 4 HDM sockets and two sets of video/audio jacks plus RS2320C, RGB PC, Digital audio and DVB2 common interface connections. I can't begin to understand what they all are, but I was able to connect my Sky box, Wii-Sports console, DVD player and VHS video with no problems. I am listing these as I spent a lot of time trying to find out whether I would be able to connect the Wii to the set and although the seller told me there were two scarts (which I knew I needed), he was unable to confirm that the Wii connection would be possible and suggested I contact Toshiba direct. Despite several emails to the manufacturer, I never received a reply, but decided in the end it was worth risking it and purchasing the set anyway. In the end I found that it had two sets of (coloured) jacks which accommodated both my Wii and my video, so it all turned out for the best in the end.

Problem when watching sport, 3 Sep 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
Update to my review below, I sent this telly back
Unfortunately vertical stripes which I believe are known in the trade as vertical banding were apparent every time the camera scans during a football match. I changed the scart leads, no difference, adjusted the backlight which improved things slightly but eventually it got so annoying, even though the effect was quote minor (my GF didn't notice it, but then she has her face stuck in facebook all evening)
Panasonic rule the school with these LCDs, I replaced it with a cheaper model from their range and the image is truer, richer and doesn't suffer the aforementioned issue.
.........
Liking this TV. Decided to plump for it over the £40 more expensive Panasonic equivalent on the basis of the reviews that stated it is better for SD freeview pictures.
The resolution plus feature sharpens up the pic nicely and makes things look rich a little like HD.
Sound was a concern - I have a Samsung in the kitchen which has a great picure but terribly tinny sound - this set is much better and has quite a rich sound for a flatscreen lcd.
I've resisted LCD in the living room until now ecause the pic is not as good as CRT, however, this set, and the recent panasonics have come close enough to now warrant the change. The blacks are black and the colours bright, no bleaching.
Main criticism would be that there are sometimes flickers and deviation of the image when confronted with patterns such as checks or stripes, to avoid this you might want to go for a 100hz set if you can afford it.
Worth noting also that if you sit too close, ie 1 - 1.5 metres away you can notice 'blocking' of the image, but once 2 metres away, as most will be, this dissapears
Good value and reccomended overall

Great Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch, 13 July 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
After a lot of research I bought this Toshiba TV last month to replace a broken Sony TV and must say I'm delighted with it.
Picture quality is suberb and the sound is as good as I've heard on any LCD TV. Its got more settings and adjustments than you can shake a stick at yet its very easy to set-up.
The remote control is clearly laidout and intuitive to use.
Value-for-money is unbeatable.
I'd recommend this great looking TV to anyone looking for a high quality product at a fantastic price.
BTW, Alex's tenuous grasp of English says all I need to know about the credibility of his earlier knocking review !

Good value and performance, 11 July 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
I've been using the TV for a couple of weeks (Freeview and DVD) and the first impressions are positive. TV looks good, swivel stand is very useful and menu options are easy to find and understand.
Image quality is good without adjusting of the factory settings - the individual pixels dissapear from about 2 - 2.5 meters and ghosting does not happen too often.
Few minor annoyances - the only sound output is optical which is too modern for my old stereo (maybe it is time to upgrade :-), full manual is only in PDF format, it's not possible to use external remote to turn the TV on and off - and one major: the USB input does not work at all!
Overall a good value for the money (especially if Freeview is the main input source) but don't bother plugging your iPod into the USB port.

One woman assembly - brrrrilliant !, 8 Aug 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
This unit is fab ! I'm not going to blind anyone with technical stuff because firstly, I don't know it, and secondly, it isn't always that interesting !!!
All I know is that this set looks great - the images are excellent and can be fine tuned - and in comparison with the 28" CRT it replaced, is as light as a feather ! It took two men to carry that one away (so how come I managed to move it on my own ?!?!?!) and onloy me to set this new one up. I've looked at holiday snaps using the USB port and a flash memory and if that's anything to go by, hooking up this little NC10 will be amazing.
I also like the fact that if you are plugged in to Sky or use a DVD player, the TV will automatically switch to the correct channel !!
I hmmm'd and haww'd about getting this, but so glad I did !!!

brilliant, 26 July 2009
This review is from: Toshiba Regza 32RV635DB 32-inch Widescreen 1080p LCD TV with Freeview (Electronics)
Being a pensioner I really didn't want to spend more than £300 on a new TV but I was advised that a 1080 resolution would be better even though I would have to pay more. So I pushed the boat out and bought this model from Amazon for £400 and I have no regrets. (The same model was listed at £499 on the Currys website). With a little help from a mate it was assembled in about 15 mins and it looks quite stunning in the corner of the lounge in my little flat The picture quality is simply superb and the sound quality is more than adequate. The remote control is very user-friendly and easy to use, even for an old chap like me. The only niggle I have is that when switching the TV on or when changing from the Sky input to Freeview mode the picture always come on at 4.3 width instead of wide mode. It's no big deal though and it can be switched to the wide mode in a couple of seconds from the remore control menu. There must be a reason for it doing this but nobody seems to know. Apart from that I am delighted with my purchase and delivery took just 36 hours from the time I ordered it online. I would certainly recommend this particular model to anybody.
