This model is the 32'' version of the 46'' TV that we tested in our labs, the Toshbia Regza 46SL863.
Everything we said in the original article holds true—the only thing that's different is the size!
The only exception is that some manufacturers fit different sized televisions with panels from different sources. In that case, our comments are only valid for the panel that we originally tested. Contrast, black levels, colour handling and ghosting are all subject to change from one panel to another.
Manufacturers who do fit the same panel in all of the TVs in a range can expect the same results across the whole range. The only factor which could be prone to slight variation is the brightness, producing slightly different contrast. According to our own tests, and assurances from manufacturers, the results of one TV can accurately be applied to others in the range.
Pluses
-
Accurate colour reproduction: average deltaE of 2.7
-
Matte finish so no reflections on the screen
-
Low energy consumption: 39 W
Minuses
-
Contrast ratio a little weak: 1320:1
-
Poor quality audio
-
Media player doesn't support enough video formats
-
Mediocre remote
The Toshiba Regza SL863 is quite simply an average television, and its competitors can do better for less.
