Toshiba 55UK4D63DB TV 139.7 cm (55") 4K Ultra HD Smart TV Wi-Fi

Product Information

The most intriguing feature is the Alexa integration, which could prove to be the UL5A’s MVP alongside Dolby Vision. The default Natural preset, in particular, can cause dark scenes to take on a quite pronounced bluish glow. The set’s motion processing, known as Tru Flow, can look unreal at its medium setting but not too artificial. The 55QA5D63DB is a better upscaler of HD sources than we might have expected for its money, adding good texture, sharpness and even depth to HD sources.

This enables it to deliver much more of the brightness, both in small ‘peaks’ and full-screen situations, that high dynamic range content thrives on.The bezel is a minimal affair and, on the back, there are four HDMI ports ( ARC but no eARC), optical-out, USB, a headphone socket and a choice of ethernet or wi-fi. The detail and textures of Mile’s statues in his Greek hideaway are satisfactorily conveyed, and though the UK4D isn’t the sharpest looking image, the tailoring on show is all well revealed, bringing out the finer detail of Benoit Blanc’s suits to a tee. You can improve things marginally – and we do mean marginally – by tinkering with the Adaptive Luma and Local Contrast controls.

The 50UK3163DB’s HDR efforts aren’t the only way it makes an unexpected mark on the affordable TV world, either.The smart apps are good, it comes with Freeview Play, and if you’re interested in voice control then the Alexa Toshiba Connect receiver comes bundled with the TV.
