Our Picks verdict

The range of ratings tends to suggest that the Toshiba REGZA 42HL167 is not necessarily everyone’s cup of tea. So if you’re thinking of buying one, it’s probably best to check it out at a local store before purchasing. And ideally check it out using the video source you’ll be using it with if possible. There were more than a few reviewers that suggested that SD res video didn’t look great on the 42HL167.
