Remember that trio of HDTV families that Toshiba <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/10/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/">told us about</a> this morning? You know, those models that you've been waiting for <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/toshiba-rolls-out-new-regza-hdtv-line-internet-connected-crew-c/">since CES</a>? Yeah -- we just spent a few quality moments with the gang at an unassuming New York hotel, and while we can't speak for the refreshments, we will say we're digging the panels. Have a peek yourself below.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/">Toshiba REGZA ZV650, XV648 and SV670 HDTVs hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/#2074595"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgethd.com/media/2009/06/toshiba-regz-hands-001_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/#2074601"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgethd.com/media/2009/06/toshiba-regz-hands-002_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/#2074603"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgethd.com/media/2009/06/toshiba-regz-hands-003_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/#2074604"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgethd.com/media/2009/06/toshiba-regz-hands-004_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/#2074605"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgethd.com/media/2009/06/toshiba-regz-hands-005_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/displays/" rel="tag">Displays</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/toshiba/" rel="tag">Toshiba</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/lcd/" rel="tag">LCD</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/10/toshiba-regza-zv650-xv648-and-sv670-hdtvs-hands-on/">Toshiba REGZA ZV650, XV648 and SV670 HDTVs hands-on</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 10 Jun 2009 16:21:00 EST.

If you're not down with waiting for Toshiba's internet-connected range of HDTVs -- which, by the way, should be out before the dawn of 2010 -- here's a bit of excellent news: the REGZA ZV650 and SV670 series are now shipping. Both of the sets were <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/toshiba-rolls-out-new-regza-hdtv-line-internet-connected-crew-c/">initially announced</a> way back at CES, and the latter of the two is Tosh's first-ever LED-backlit HDTV. Said set also packs local dimming, ClearScan 240 dejudder technology, PixelPure 5G 14-bit video processing and that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/18/toshibas-46xv545u-lcd-hdtv-reviewed-internal-upscaling-is-a-jo/">questionably useful</a> Resolution+ system. There's also a USB socket, four HDMI connectors, IR pass-through, a PC input and REGZA-LINK (HDMI-CEC). As for the other guys (yeah, there's more), head on past the break and take notes on the ones relevant to your interests.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/">Toshiba ships REGZA ZV650 and SV670 HDTVs</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/#2073453"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/06/rezga-46sv670-toshiba_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/#2073452"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/06/55zv650-toshiba-hdtv_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/#2073451"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/06/rezga-55sv670-toshiba-1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/10/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Toshiba ships REGZA ZV650 and SV670 HDTVs</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/displays/" rel="tag">Displays</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/toshiba/" rel="tag">Toshiba</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/lcd/" rel="tag">LCD</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/10/toshiba-ships-regza-zv650-and-sv670-hdtvs/">Toshiba ships REGZA ZV650 and SV670 HDTVs</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 10 Jun 2009 13:37:00 EST.

Toshiba is back and ready to make good on some of the higher end HDTVs promised <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/live-from-toshibas-ces-press-conference/">at CES</a>, after showing off the energy efficient <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/tag/regza">C8000 REGZA LCDs</a>, it's time for the 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio local dimming LED backlit ZX8000 (labeled <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2009/01/07/toshiba-rolls-out-new-regza-hdtv-line-internet-connected-crew-c/">SV670 in the U.S.</a>) series. These also pack the latest edition of <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/30/toshiba-knows-no-shame-plans-to-release-super-resolution-dvd-pl/">Super Resolution+</a> upconverting, ClearScan 240Hz motion and fifth generation Pixel Pure image processing. We've heard those picture quality claims and seen the (<a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/12/18/toshibas-46xv545u-lcd-hdtv-reviewed-internal-upscaling-is-a-jo/">sometimes controversial</a>) results before, but a few features anyone can appreciate are InstaPort HDMI for lagless switching between inputs and AutoView calibration for room lighting conditions. Add-on hard disk drives are also available, and the ZX8000 models are expected in late June / early July for 46- and 55-inch models topping out around 600,000 ($5,944.)

Toshiba is back and ready to make good on some of the higher end HDTVs promised <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/live-from-toshibas-ces-press-conference/">at CES</a>, after showing off the energy efficient <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/regza">C8000 REGZA LCDs</a>, it's time for the 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio local dimming LED backlit ZX8000 (labeled <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/toshiba-rolls-out-new-regza-hdtv-line-internet-connected-crew-c/">SV670 in the U.S.</a>) series. These also pack the latest edition of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/30/toshiba-knows-no-shame-plans-to-release-super-resolution-dvd-pl/">Super Resolution+</a> upconverting, ClearScan 240Hz motion and fifth generation Pixel Pure image processing. We've heard those picture quality claims and seen the (<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/18/toshibas-46xv545u-lcd-hdtv-reviewed-internal-upscaling-is-a-jo/">sometimes controversial</a>) results before, but a few features anyone can appreciate are InstaPort HDMI for lagless switching between inputs and AutoView calibration for room lighting conditions. Add-on hard disk drives are also available, and the ZX8000 models are expected in late June / early July for 46- and 55-inch models topping out around 600,000 ($5,944.)
