What we think: Affordable with excellent high-definition performance, but average elsewhere
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 19 June 2007
Tags: explore, colours, toshiba, channels
We like:
1080p compatibility; advanced picture and sound adjustments; authoritative sound; superb high-definition performance
We don't like:
Daunting design; limited connectivity; average standard-definition performance
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Toshiba's 42X3030D is competitively priced for a 1080p large screen. There are a few technical compromises compared to the more expensive Z series, and standard-definition performance is ordinary, but high-definition image quality is outstanding
