Toshiba - 43" Class (42.5" Diag.) - LED - 1080p - with Chromecast Built-in - HDTV

I bought this TV to upgrade my old 32" 720p one. For the price this TV exceeds my expectations. The picture is great, but don't expect anything premium in terms of colors and frame rate. The speakers seem very loud and clear. The best way to describe it is a natural TV experience - nothing fancy but also nothing lacking. I mostly use the TV to play console video games on and it works great after altering the display settings. Unfortunately setting the picture mode to Game Mode looks great, but each time you turn off the TV it disables Game Mode. So I suggest you altar Standard mode to your liking (I prefer cool color temperature with medium contrast). The TV will save individual settings for each input which is really nice. For example, I can set HDMI 1 for what looks nice for watching video and I can have settings for HDMI 3 that look nice for playing PS4 and it saves each picture settings individually. As for the chromecast, it is a nice feature to have built in without paying extra and having to waste a HDMI slot. The wifi strength seems quite weak compared to other devices so I had to use my wifi repeater to get it to connect at all. Heavy streaming will sometimes disconnect, but using apps like Youtube seems to work fine. I can't really say if this is the TV itself, the chromecast, or just my local wifi. This TV isn't exactly a smart TV. It has a chromecast but that is really separate from the TV itself. The USB port cannot play videos as expected. So just know this is a regular TV with a chromecast invisibly plugged in. Which is actually great for the price of $250 or less. I mainly bought this TV because the low price and dimensions between the feet stands. It fits on a 30" wide table even though the screen is much larger. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a normal TV display with streaming functionality.

I bought this TV for $229.99 on sale for my guest bedroom. I see the regular price is $349. I'm not sure if it's great for $349 however. This isn't a smart TV but I knew that before buying it. It has google chrome cast which allows you to broadcast the screen from your android phone or tablet onto the TV. This means you can kinda make it a smart TV. But doing that isn't always convenient. I added an amazon fire stick and it's essentially now a smart TV. Pros: The speakers are the best that I've heard for a flat panel TV. I own 2 Sony TVs costing thousands and this one is better. The resolution is ok. I've seen better but I got this under $300 and for that price, its fine. Cons: The remote doesn't have numbers so you can't go directly to a channel. The TV talks every action you make like "volume 30." Got annoying quick. You can turn it off tho. So for the TV $230 and firestick $40, I got a wifi smart 43 inch TV for $270.00. Now I'm kicking myself for not getting 2 as I needed another for my other bedroom. I'd say it's worth about $300. If it every comes back down to $230, i'ts a steal.

My bargain TV did not last, so I upgraded to this TV and have been extremely happy with my purchase! It is not a Smart TV, but it does have Chrome-cast built-in, which is great. The picture is crisp and clear. I wish I had purchased this TV the first time around.

I would recemmend this because it does everything it says it does and is extremely easy to set up....BUT. Although Chromecast is pretty neat, it is best if you have an Android. Not as great if you have an iPhone as Google and Apple do not play as well together.....ie: having to duplicate my iTunes content onto Google's servers really has me thinking about Bluetooth. Once Chromecast has been setup, the WiFi is always on and can not be turned off unless the TV is turned off or you "forget the network" which requires going thru the Chromecast setup to get it working again. So...while you're not casting, this TV seems to be connected to Google consuming bandwidth in the background downloading screen saver images. Basically every feature of this TV has me on the fence returning it to spend a few more bucks for: 1. Bluetooth 2. More control in setup over the Wifi, sound and picture settings. 3. A less grainy picture that usually comes with spending more. Yeah, I would reccemmend this to a friend if he/she had only this amount to spend, really truly needed a 43" TV, absolutely had to have Chromecast and owned an Andriod device.

Great sound and excellent picture, easy set up!!!!

This TV is a great modestly priced HD unit with good picture quality. The built in Chromecast works well!

Love the chromecast built in. Works great every time, can even turn the TV on with it. Simplifies our life. Screen Quality is great

This is a great TV for the price! Easy to set up and works right out of the box with minimal setup.
