The Toshiba 50L2300U HDTV is one of the company’s new models this year. It has a 50 inch screen, full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, and LED backlight technology. Today, the writers from Ecoustics released their review of this particular device. The writers were impressed with the image quality and highlighted the display’s color reproduction and thought the images were incredibly sharp. The TV doesn’t include any of the big features like 3D. This helps keep the retail price low and affordable for everyone. The writers didn’t like the black levels though and thought they could have been improved significantly. The final conclusion the writers made about the 50L2300U was, “At $650, Toshiba’s attractive 50L2300U definitely offers some cheap HD real estate, providing accurate colors, a sharp image, and marginal motion judder across its large screen. However, with its slim feature set, we expected more from the TV’s overall performance. Poor black levels, weak shadow detail, and a lackluster interface keep us from placing it on par with our favorites from the segment, like the Vizio E0I series, which offers better performance, and a lot more features at the same price. While Toshiba’s 50L2300U isn’t a bad option, it simply didn’t bring enough heat to stand out as a top contender in this wide LCD field.”
