I was worried about Hisense manufacturing Toshiba TV's since 2017, but glad to hear that their Quality Control department is separate from Hisense, so fingers crossed and hoping for top notch quality from this Japanese TV manufacturer.
Every modern 4K TV has some form of upscaling.
Probably Hisense, since they own Toshiba's TV division. Even the back panel looks similar to most Hisense TVs, so it's likely assembled in the same factory.
I'm in the market for a TV to place in an outdoor covered Cabana. It would have to get somewhat bright to handle glare and what not outside. Anybody know anything about this TV and whether it would be a good fit?
eg...
Years ago, when I was in the electronic business. They gave a Sony TV a rather mediocre rating even though it had an excellent picture quality and a high contrast ratio (inky blacks)
They took point off because of the TV's input lag, motion blur and response time, (important to gamers but meaningless to most people) it did not make a good computer monitor, it had high reflection (The screen was glossy which gave it a very good picture quality) limited viewing angles and it was not 4K. It was 2015...4K was rare and 99 % of videos were 1080p or lower.
I was just puzzled by that as well. I will trust what they have listed instead of the OP.

This is closely related to a Hisense U6G/U7G series' (VA panel), with a native 120Hz refresh rate (Motion Rate 480). Although there is no support for HDMI 2.1 bandwidth (4K@120Hz) due to hardware limitations.
I got this information from a SD post for the 75" version here:

It's funny you say that as I had a similiar experience yesterday. I was in Best Buy looking at the Samsung S90D (OLED) and the Samsung QN90D (QLED). They were side by side playing the same loop and the QLED was brighter and just seemed to pop more.

Great! You're welcome...I am tempted to buy this 2025 Toshiba m550 but have no other place to put the tv. Lol... if the quality is same or better than the 2022 model I may pull the trigger for the 65 incher in the near future. Enjoy!
