The Toshiba C350LU is a budget-friendly LCD TV with a screen size of 65 inches, making it suitable for those seeking a large display at a lower cost. However, its overall picture quality is poor, which means it may not be the optimal choice for customers looking for high-quality image rendering, especially in dark rooms where its performance is lacking. For gaming, this model also has a poor performance, indicating it might not be the best fit for serious gamers looking for quick response times and clear motion processing. Sports content is rated fair, suggesting this TV can handle fast-moving sports action reasonably well. Yet, for bright room conditions, its capabilities are poor, indicating that glare or reflections could be issues in well-lit environments. The TV does have a good viewing angle, which is beneficial if you have a wide seating arrangement. When it comes to using it as a monitor, its performance is fair, so it might work for casual computer use. The Toshiba C350LU supports HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG, but doesn't support HDR10+, providing an entry-level HDR experience. The TV comes with three HDMI ports but lacks great speakers, which suggests that you might want to consider an external sound system for better audio quality. It also includes voice command functionality for ease of use. Ultimately, this TV may be suitable for casual viewing or as a secondary TV, but those looking for high performance in gaming, movie watching, or usage in bright rooms may want to consider other options.

Ratings by Category

Sports:
3.2
PerfectRec’s sports score prioritizes response time and refresh rate as the most important factors to ensure clear images of fast-moving scenes. In addition, we consider gray uniformity, which ensures that the turf looks the same across the whole screen, reflections, to avoid distracting ambient light from the action, and viewing angles and brightness, to avoid color distortion and washed-out images, especially when not seated directly in front of the TV.
Cartoons & Animaton:
3.0
The Toshiba C350LU displays a poor color gamut, which means it struggles to reproduce the wide range of colors typically used in cartoons and animation. Additionally, its colors out of the box are evaluated as poor, indicating that without calibration, the color accuracy is not ideal for content that relies heavily on vibrant and varied colors.
Bright Room:
3.0
PerfectRec’s bright room score is a proprietary score of a television's performance in a bright environment, taking into account the following factors: screen brightness, reflections, and color volume. A higher score indicates better TV performance in bright conditions, minimizing glare and producing a more pleasant viewing experience. Brightness is crucial in how well the image displays in direct sunlight, and low reflections reduce glare. Color volume contributes to color vibrancy and depth, which are vital in a bright environment.
