Toshiba's big screen TL515U LED HDTV series delivers brilliant movies and games in Natural 3D*, plus 1080p full HD* imagery in 2D. So they're ideal for those who want to enjoy extended in-your-face gaming or 3D viewing*.
Our exclusive ClearFrame 240Hz anti-blur technology takes the blurring out of fast-paced video and sports. Local dimming will improve blacks and contrast ratios for a measurably enhanced picture quality. Our NetTV* package with Yahoo! Widgets lets you network with your friends, post pictures, download movies and more--right from the couch. You'll also have four HDMI ports to create a great home theater, and enjoy in-home connectivity minus the cable clutter with built-in Wi-Fi*. Sporting a new ultrathin, chrome-trimmed black-brushed aluminum design, these sets really stand out in a room.
Key Features:
Through "elegant minimalism," this TV offers style and sophistication that complements the decor of most any room, without overpowering it.
Delivering more than just high-definition, the 1080p full HD* output on this TV represents the finest HD picture quality available today. Skin tones, textures and landscapes suddenly seem like real life. Shadows are deeper and richer. Colors pop. Highlights come alive with amazing character. The secret is more pixels. In fact, on a 1920 x 1080 resolution screen, 1080p full HD* content displays over 2,000,000 pixels—a standard 720p HD display less than half that.
Driven by LED backlight technology, this TV displays images using liquid crystal illumination like traditional LCD models. But unlike LCD TVs, the LED backlight is made of several light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The result is a picture offering deeper blacks, brighter whites and vivid colors.
Offers significantly clearer full-motion video compared to 60Hz or even standard 120Hz televisions. Based on our innovative ClearFrame 120Hz anti-blur technology, ClearScan goes a big step further, multiplying frame rates to create up to a 240Hz effect that reduces any blurring caused by fast-action video. Using advanced computer processing, it improves picture clarity without significantly impacting brightness or adding flicker.
Improves black levels and contrast ratios to produce a better picture.
This special LED screen delivers superior high-speed video. Plus, its wide viewing angle ensures you'll experience better viewing from a variety of seating areas.
This 3D technology* is ideal for families and gamers who want to enjoy immersive action, plus in-depth movies and games in 3D.
Based on our exclusive Toshiba Chip with Cell algorithms, this proprietary software converts 2D images—from TV programs, movies and video games—into 3D by analyzing individual frames and estimating the depth of each area in the frame process, creating separate stereoscopic 3D images* for the left and right eye.
This innovative technology uses our acclaimed Toshiba Chip with Cell algorithms to deliver sharper 3D images* with non-full HD 3D signals. It also upconverts 480i, 480p, and even 720p content to create a sharper, more detailed picture so that all your standard-def content will look more like HD. Color Correction and RGB Gamma improve brightness, color saturation, contrast and hue. They also calibrate the RGB values of the pixels to the characteristics of your TV, for a sharper look. Plus, Advanced Color Image fine-tunes environmental and character colors—like sky, grass, leaves and skin—to give these images a more natural appearance.
Because your TV should be bright enough for high-contrast viewing during the day, but not so intense that it strains your eyes at night, Toshiba AutoView takes the hassle out of making those adjustments yourself. It monitors both ambient room light and the incoming video signal, automatically adjusting TV settings to produce an ideal picture in virtually any lighting condition.
Many TV broadcasts, movies and other content are produced in standard def 480i and 480p or high-def 720p. Depending on the show or your preferences, there are times when you may not want your Toshiba 1080p or 720p TV to automatically upconvert those signals. Native Mode lets you easily take control. On our 1080p HDTVs, Native Mode eliminates unnecessary scaling of full HD signals that can reduce overall image resolution--and quality. Activated on either our 720p or 1080p TVs, it also displays the image edges many sets lose to normal over-scanning.
Lets you enjoy hair-trigger action on your Toshiba TV with a special setting that reduces game controller delay.
Allows for more precise picture adjustments, creating a totally optimized home theater experience.
A suite of Internet apps—YouTube and Facebook®, Picasa, Pandora, Twitter, Netflix and more—that let you keep up with friends or the news, browse pictures on the big screen or download the latest blockbuster hits.
Lets you enjoy convenient in-home connectivity without the cable clutter, and makes it easier to stream* content from your media server or the Internet.
This TV is designed to set-up, synch and operate seamlessly with other DLNA electronics you might add to your home entertainment network—including media servers, receivers, DVD players and more.
Improves sound quality through special algorithms that calculate the difference between the original recorded audio level and the level at which it's being played. It combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, while taking into account human perception and room acoustics too. So you'll experience superior bass response, octave-to-octave balance and surround impressions that are accurate at almost any volume.
Technology that enables you to easily connect to high-definition video and immersive surround sound in one cable, and control like-equipped home theater components with one remote control. InstaPort dramatically speeds up HDMI switching, reducing the typical five- or six-second responses seen with standard inputs to a fraction of that time.
Easily connect to your favorite videos, music and photos via USB.
Clip in a cable and add your Toshiba TV to a home entertainment network. Then get set to enjoy photos, video and other multimedia off your server, or stream movies right from the Internet.
Enables you to enjoy high-definition images when you connect a PC to your Toshiba TV.
A pattern of video industry standardized holes used for mounting to stands or wall, which allows for use of universal mounts when mounting your TV.

Customer Reviews
Most helpful customer reviews14 of 14 people found the following review helpful.
An incredible piece of technology for the money!By Jeffrey H. Greenwald
The set arrived on Monday after ordering on Friday with free shipping. It was single boxed; but the box was not damaged in any way. After getting it hooked up via the component and VGA inputs; I was so amazed by the 2D picture quality that I didn't even try the 3D until the next day. The colors really sizzle, and textures look so real that they almost look 3D in 2D mode.
A few points: This TV is an energy saver, so that means it won't turn on quickly. I almost thought the TV was dead until I realized it has to "boot up" after being powered down. The green light blinks during the boot process, and turns solid green when it is completed. When powering down, it turns red, and then off.
Second, VERY complete documentation is available on the Toshiba support site; a fact which is printed on the cover of the very abridged manual included with the TV. You can download the full manual which goes through every single function in excruciating detail; it is over 100 pages of information!
Third, you do not need to be 10 ft away to see 3D, 4ft is more like it (the full manual contains all the specifications). However, there does seem to be a sweet spot at about 10 ft where the 3D looks best. You must view at eye level though; for the 3D to work properly. Keep this in mind when placing/mounting the TV.
Fourth, original 3D content must be on the digital inputs. Analog inputs support the synthetic 3D, but not original 3D content. An HDMI connection is required for that; but keep in mind that a DVI to HDMI cable will do the trick for older equipment without HDMI. Also, the TV has four (4) HDMI inputs; which should be enough for most purposes. I will need one for the computer, one for the cable box, and I have two left over for a 3D blu-ray player and my 3D camera.
I ordered the cables from Amazon for the cable box and the HDMI on my laptop, which I am fortunate to have! I could have called Comcast to get a newer box; but why bother when I can get a cable that will do the trick for a few bucks? Besides, I have a lot of stuff wired up to existing box, including my old Slingbox. The cable box is an old tank of a box with DVI and component output--Made in the USA by Motorola -- and I want to keep it. It looks like it was made to fly to Saturn; and will probably last forever -- like my old Kenwood receiver from the 1970's... it still works!
I have an Aiptek 3D camera which connects directly to HDMI; I plugged this in and the 3D worked beautifully. Also, using synthetic 3D on Microsoft Trains Simulator resulted in a very realistic 3D experience; I was amazed! The results of course will depend on the content as some content works better with the engine than others....for example cartoons appear flat and 2D even in 3D mode, which is really as it should be. Apparently the processor takes 2D depth information and converts it to 3D... the more 3D-like the 2D image is (i.e. has large depth of field); the better the fake 3D will be. It can be inconsistent on regular programming; but on games it seems to work very well....if the game is a game with depth of field (not a 2D flat game) you are in for a wonderful surprise! Without a doubt, this is the best on-the-fly 2d to 3d conversion I've ever seen! It should be; it uses the same type of Cell processor that is used in the PS3.
I plugged the set into my home network with an Ethernet cable; and it downloaded a firmware update right away! Impressive!!!!
I just recommend that anyone buying this set become thoroughly familiar with its capabilities; either by spending a lot of time experimenting in the menus; and/or reading the extended manual you download from the Toshiba support site. Once you are familiar with the set; I think you will love it as much as I do! If you want to see a professional review of this product, I recommend [...] I based my decision to buy on that review; not the reviews here.
All in all; this may be the best 600 bucks I ever spent. A truly amazing product!!
