55" Toshiba 55UV3F63DG

The Toshiba 55UV3F63DG television delivers a picture with 4K Ultra HD resolution on its 55" screen size screen. The panel with Direct LED backlighting illuminates the screen evenly across its entire surface. It uses the Vidaa operating system for access to online content and apps. The picture is enhanced by support for the Dolby Vision format, which optimises contrast and colour rendering for each scene individually. Smooth motion and sharp details are handled by TRU Flow and TRU Resolution image processing technologies. The sound component was designed by Onkyo and supports the Dolby Atmos format, which creates a spatial sound field.

Picture

Content is displayed by a Direct LED panel with a 139cm (55") screen size and a native resolution of 4K Ultra HD (3840×2160). The panel operates at a refresh rate of 50/60Hz and supports high dynamic range standards including the dynamic format Dolby Vision HDR, which adjusts image data frame by frame. TRU Resolution technology increases sharpness and detail. TRU Flow focuses on smooth motion. Gamers will appreciate the gaming mode, which optimises settings to reduce input lag.

Sound

The sound system was designed by Onkyo and has a total output of 20W, split between two down-firing speakers. The television integrates support for the spatial format Dolby Atmos, which adds a vertical dimension to the sound and creates an immersive surround sound experience. The eARC interface on one of the HDMI ports is used to connect an external soundbar or AV receiver and transmit audio in uncompressed quality. The sound performance can be further adjusted using the five-band equaliser or by selecting from preset modes such as Film, Music or Speech.

A trio of HDMI 2.0 ports are available for connecting external devices, one of which supports the eARC function for high-quality audio transmission. There are also two USB ports, which can be used to play multimedia files or to record television broadcasts (PVR). Wireless connectivity is provided by integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology for pairing devices such as wireless headphones or a soundbar. The equipment also includes a LAN port for a wired internet connection, an optical audio output, a headphone jack and a CI+ slot for pay-TV decoder modules.
