Toshiba has selected IFA 2022 to debut its latest range of TVs. Here’s everything the company announced during the event.
If you’ve been looking to upgrade to a new Toshiba TV, this year could be the perfect time to do so. The brand has announced a number of firsts for this year, including its first Quantum Dot TV and its first smart sets with Fire TV built-in covering a range of price points.
Toshiba has also revealed that the TikTok TV app will be coming to all of its TVs released since 2019, allowing you to sit down and flick through the short videos on a bigger screen at home.
“It’s really exciting to be introducing two brilliant firsts to the Toshiba line up into the UK. Quantum Dot offers incredible picture quality with fantastic, enhanced colour reproduction, and we’re bringing it into the market at a really accessible price point. It shows our commitment to delivering huge quality to our customers without breaking the bank”, said Toshiba TV’s Director of UK Sales & Marketing, David Flintoft.
“Our first UK Fire TV is another big step for us, stay turned because we have big plans here. We’ve already proved we can take our partnership with Amazon to great places with the Alexa Built-In models and we think Fire TV will be the same”.
