Toshiba Regza 40XV645U
This review is organized into 18 pages
Next: Page 1
Tour & Design
Introduction
The 40XV645U is part of Toshiba’s high-end Regza lineup of HDTVs. A 40-inch LCD, it sports an integrated USB port for viewing photos and 120Hz refresh rate, which should improve motion performance. Apart from that there aren’t any particularly impressive features on board, which is consistent with a reasonable price of $899.

Samsung UN32D5500 LED LCD HDTV Review
The D5500 has a rather high MSRP of $699, considering it’s only a 32-inch TV. There are some “premiums upgrades,” a term we use with some dubiousness, knowing that these features can be far less valuable than they appear. Nevertheless, at its core this is a good television. If you can find it a significantly reduced price it would make a great addition to a home theater. Read More...
