At just 23mm wide, Toshiba is laying claim to producing the slimmest LCD TV in the world with their newly introduced 40XF355D.
With substance to match the looks, the 40XF355D comes equipped with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, three HDMI sockets, 10-bit colour processing and an Onkyo speaker system. The latter is a particularly important feature, because as a TV bezel becomes thinner it becomes more difficult to generate a decent sound output.
The 40XF355D also includes an innovative "Exact Scan" mode that allows a 1080i (such as Sky SD) broadcasted signal to be processed by the TV in the original broadcasted format, which translates into no scaling of the original image with no loss or cropping of picture and no loss of picture quality.
No word yet on when these sets will be coming to the UK, but they will almost certainly be with us some time in the new year - with a hefty £1000 plus price tag.
