My momma gonna get a nice Valentine’s Day present.
When did Toshiba make good plasmas? That was Panasonic's lane Pops still has his Panasonic Kuro in his mancave. The folks are upgraded with oled 4k but he loves that t.v.
This will be a decent t.v. for stocking stuffers and a few elderly relatives.
YES......2 Toshiba studio standards going strong like 8-9 years....52" in my master bedroom.....46" in the double door folding closet in my guest bedroom!!!

Toshiba in the US is some Chinese company using their name...the only Japanese TV that you can buy in the USA is Sony
is this deal for today only?

Decent enough for a guest room TV though60hz motion rate
I was in best buy last night looking at their tvs and it seems that all the 1080p tvs had a 60Hz refresh rate
60hz motion rate
Anything that is higher Hz like 120 and 240 is digitally faked, and like the digital zoom on a camera, it sucks. All you are doing is either duplicating frames, or making extra artificial "mixed frames" from the real frames before and after. Its mostly a marketing gimmick. First thing I do when i get a new TV is turn that shit off, makes everything but sports look weird af.
Many websites have tutorials to teach people to turn this crap off as it gives your shows and movies what are called the "soap-opera" effect.

Many directors are now calling on the TV manufacturing industry to turn it off by default as well

The makers of Stranger Things also called for people to disable this before watching S2 because of the way it makes things look.

As for this TV, I bought it a month or so ago at the same price and put it in our bedroom to replace an almost 10 y/o Sony 42" LCD. It looks good, and I haven't had any issues with it. TruSound is nice also to stop some shows from being super loud and other stuff being too quiet.
toshiba has always made good tv's.
thanks for actually educating some people.
far too many people see "numbers" and think one thing when they have absolutely no idea wtf they are talking about.
i also turn that shit (the soap opera effect) off the moment i power a new tv on. as you said it makes everything but sports and animated movies look ridiculous.
60hz motion rate
You can't tell a difference.....
good info....tks
what he really meant to say was motion artifacts. and i can see them. but reducing motion artifacts has more to do with than just the refresh rate.
i went over my best friend's house a couple of weeks ago. i don't see him often anymore because we live in different states. i didn't even tell him how terrible his new 65" samsung looked with the soap opera effect on.
he already thinks i am a home theater/theater snob.

the one posted above is currently 350 and even at that price its a steal.
You call that an education? Individuals are lazy these days u have avsforums which is a grown up version with folks who are passionate about home theater.
Its not that hard to use google and figure specs and terms out .
This is out of date info please stop. Plenty of TVs have native 120 rates
I think you can
As soon as I get a new tv I turn that off
On my tv is called ultra smooth motion, it was on by default
