Strengths: Vivid color, user-friendly remote, sharp picture, sleek design and full 1080p
Weakness: Legs on stand stick out a bit far, remote isn't backlit
Great LCD Television for the price. This TV has good picture quality, vivid color, sharp picture. The cabinet has a sleek, modern design, although the legs stick out a bit far at an angle in the front making it difficult to place other components, such as vcr or dvd in front of it. Local HD transmissions can be received without need for a special antenna. It has full 1080p which is great since I...
Strengths: Clear picture, vivid colors
Weakness: So far, no downsides
This is our first HDTV purchase and so far we are pleased with it. The picture quality is good, clear and vivid picture. Our last television was a 61" Toshiba projection TV and if this one lasts as long as that one did, we will be extremely happy. The Toshiba name has always been good for us.
Strengths: 1080P, good looks, packaging, swivel base, PRICE
Weakness: weak speakers
After researching for 6 months, I found this Toshiba 42HL167 1080P locally for $1400 out the door with 0% financing until Jan '09...and I it's been a dream come true. First, I tried a DLP, but it was not as versatile, the fan is annoying, and are not wall mountable! So NO "COOL" points for DLP's. Plasma suffers from "burn-in" and performance is not up to that of an LCD. Also, Plasma have a lot of...
Strengths: High-definition picture quality is excellent and standard definition is surprisingly good; 3 HDMI inputs; supports 1:1 pixel mapping; price
Weakness: Off-center viewing washes out colors more than comparable brands; no 1080p resolution over component; VGA input only supports a maximum resolution of 1024x768
This is a solid 42-inch LCD HDTV for the price. The picture quality in both standard and high definition environments is comparable to rival sets that cost hundreds more. My particular TV can pick up over-the-air HD broadcasts without an antenna, which is a pleasant surprise. The 42HL167 also does 1:1 pixel mapping without any picture corruption or artifacts. This set is not without its flaws,...
Strengths: Great Picture, good angle viewing, full 1080P, ample inputs, good scaling and stretching of SD, nice menus, very bright, good motion handling, and affordable.
Weakness: Piano finish on the surrounding case is not 100% smooth (Some imperfections), Base is very large and ugly and sticks out 6" from the front, speakers are fairly weak, black levels in SD are not so great
I purchased this a month ago at PCRichards with a price match. Got a good deal and a great latest generation (As of 06/07) LCD at Full 1080P. The screen is bright and crisp and on HD content the black levels are great and the color is vibrant. It has 175 degree + angle view, and the motion seems very fluid with no detectable trailing. It has ample inputs including 3 HDMI, which is fantastic. The...
Strengths: Great picture even off angle viewing although not 176 degrees as advertised about 150 degrees before color fade.
Weakness: Some theatre settings not available through RF cable but ample component imputs, RCA, A/V jacks took care of that. Narrow wall mount holes make me nervous but seem very strong. So I guess none really.
I disagree with some of the negative reviews. If you expect home theatre sound you should expect to have to hook it to a home theatre system. I found the sound quality once adjusted to be fine even when too loud. The off angle viewing color fade I also disagree and have called it a strength. I bought an articulating wall mount and have not needed it. The preset picture modes are all very bright...
Strengths: Nice size, easy on the eyes Captions easy to read Great picture quality, bigger and sharper
Weakness: Remote a bit complicated for senior citizens Remote doesn't light up
If this Toshiba lasts as long as our Toshiba 61" projection TV did, we will have plenty of time to enjoy all the features this television has to offer. We have been very happy with the Toshiba brand in the past years. It is very nice looking, sturdy, and handy that it swivels for easy viewing. We are using this television in the bedroom and it is a great size for this room. Not having the big,...
Strengths: Great Picture, Easy to Set Up, Price
Weakness: Slight color change when not looking straight on
You definitely can't beat this TV for the price. I compared this TV with a Philips and LG 42" 1080p HDTV and this one was the best deal. The Philips wasn't up to the caliber of the Toshiba and LG while the LG and Toshiba looked the same. What makes the Toshiba better was that it was $200 cheaper than the LG. When I got it home, I had everything hooked up within 10 minutes of walking in my front...
Strengths: Colors, vibrant detail and vivid light and dark contrast.
Weakness: Outdated bezel, remote could be imporoved
Comparing against my sharp aquos 46" 1080p set, the regza is every bit as good as far as color detail and picture quality. My video feeds were a PS3 bluray player, and xbox 360 HD-dvd/console. Also used comcast high def cable, and the picture is superb on HD content.

The Regza 42HL67 is part of Toshibas 2007 lineup of LCD high-def televisions, and falls on the entry-level side of their offerings, and in the middle road of LCDs in general. The set features a 720p native resolution as opposed to the higher 1080p, but at 42" the difference in resolution shouldnt be a factor in viewing distances over 7 feet. As part of the Regza line the HL67 uses much of the...

Beautiful quality picture
Strengths: This tv has a good quality picture. The colors are sharp and bright. It has a swivel base for viewing from every angl. It was easy to set up.
Weakness: So far I have not experienced any weaknesses with this television.
I highly recommend this television. All stations come in nice and clear. The tv was simple to set up. It has nice sound. The picture is very sharp with intense color. This tv comes with a swivel base that makes it easy to view from all angles. The remote is easy to use. You can easily switch back and forth from your antennae to cable.
