I personally liked the look of the Cinema mode best, as it offered richer reds, deeper blacks and better contrast for a punchier image. The night-time scenes are packed with deep, moody blacks, while daytime scenes take advantage of vibrant yellows, oranges and greens.

The two down-firing speakers fail to properly capture the thud of a bear’s paw hitting the ground, the higher-pitched smashing of glass or the sudden rush of a gun shot, with bass performance similarly disappointing.

As far as ports go, the WK3C includes a CI slot, headphone jack, USB and HDMI on the side of the TV and a Composite Video In input, satellite, antenna, Digital Audio Out (optic), Ethernet, VGA and two more HDMI ports on the back. A watch of His Dark Materials on iPlayer in the Smart mode showed that, while the audio will do a job for casual TV watchers, it could be improved upon. The menu pops up from the bottom, so you can continue to watch content as you move through the five tabs.

Pay in 3 is a form of credit, may not be suitable for everyone and use may affect your credit score. However, the small display wouldn’t be my first choice for a larger living room, and movie buffs and gamers will likely won’t to look for something slightly better equipped with a higher resolution and better app support.The premise is similar to Dolby Atmos in that it creates a hemisphere of sound that’s more lifelike and natural in its presentation. The Toshiba WK3C supports Dolby Audio and DTS Virtual:X, the latter offers a virtual surround sound experience from the TV’s speakers. Watching Netflix’s The Good Place to see how the TV dealt with brighter content and the contrast was similarly okay.

Indeed, these smaller screens often will come with all of the same Smart TV functions of a larger set. Contrast between the whites and blacks is noticeable when the Toshiba is presented with the harsh light and shadows of a scene in a boxing ring scene as characters find their faces half illuminated and half plunged into darkness. To make matters worse, turn the volume anywhere above 50% and you’ll be met with some bad distortion.A key benefit to Smart TVs is that they allow access to other internet services, such as news apps, weather services, internet browsers, and social media apps like Facebook.

A TV with HDR simply means the screen itself is capable of displaying more colours than a regular set.Dolby Audio Processing provides an enhanced experience whatever you’re watching, with richer, clearer and more powerful sound. Dialogue is clear and easy to follow and both the voices and the sound effects are balanced well with any background music. At four times the resolution, these 4K screens are some of the sharpest available, with enhanced colour, brightness, and contrast. HDR stands for High Dynamic Range and refers to contrast (or difference) between the brightest and darkest parts of an image.
