Display, power consumption, dimensions, technologies used, connections, certifications, comfort features. All these keywords can be relevant for a purchase decision, but an exact comparison is often difficult. For this reason, we will summarize as many of the mentioned specifications as possible in an understandable form in the course of this article. Let's start with the most important component of the 58L8400U from Toshiba.
Display
Let's start with the size of the display. It is 57 inches ( 1.46 m on the diagonal) large and should thus offer enough space for all contents according to Toshiba. As already mentioned or known, monitors have a certain number of pixels in height and width. In most cases, this is not a 1:1 ratio, which is also the case with the monitor from Toshiba. This monitor has an aspect ratio of 1.778 : 116. This means that every 1.778 pixels in width 116 pixels in height are added. Approximately 91.8 % of the front surface of the monitor is taken up by the display, while the remaining part is screen edges that do not allow the image to be displayed. If you want to place several monitors next to each other, it is advisable to choose models with narrow edges. The display is a Super MVA panel. The panel has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 px. The pixel density is 76 ppi. The pixel pitch is 0.331 mm. The continuous possible brightness specified by the manufacturer Toshiba is 350 nt. The panel is illuminated by Edge LED. The built-in panel ensures stable color reproduction of the image, even at deviating viewing angles, by means of its 176 ° (horizontal) viewing angle. Toshiba promises stable color reproduction moreover within a 176 ° vertical angle. Vertically, however, the image renews at a minimum rate of 100 hz up to 120 hz. The minimum response time of the monitor is ms.
Color space
The panel has a bit depth of 10 per color channel, but what does that mean? The number of bits determines how many colors can be encoded for the individual pixels of the display. For an 8-bit panel, for example, this is 256 different colors (2^8 = 256). However, since we usually display three different colors per pixel at the same time, in theory about 16 million (256^3) different colors are possible by mixing the three pixels. A 10-bit panel could even display a billion colors. According to the manufacturer, the coverage of the NTSC 1953 color space is 86 %.
Contrast ratio
Contrast ratio is a common measurement used to represent the maximum relative differences in brightness between black and white. It describes the ability of a screen or projector to produce a high-contrast image and is the quotient of the maximum and minimum displayable luminance. The higher the values are away from each other, the stronger the quantitatively seen difference between black and white is set up, which in turn results in an improved image quality. This monitor from Toshiba has a static contrast ratio of 4000 : 1 , according to the manufacturer.
HDR
The monitor supports all HDR modes listed here:
screen design
Toshiba Specifies the following dimensions for the monitor 58L8400U without stand/feet: 76.4 cm x 1.305 m x 6.6 cm (HxWxD)
If you want to place the monitor described here on the desk without a wall mount, you should allow for 80.7 x 1.305 x 32.2 m (HxWxD) of space. The device weighs 25.9 kg with the stand in place. A wall mount should be designed for at least 24.6 kg to hold the 58L8400U neatly and securely. Speaking of weight without a stand and thus wall or table mounts. The monitor supports a Vesa mounting.
Rotate, tilt and swivel
The monitor from Toshiba cannot be rotated. The monitor cannot be swiveled. This feature could be retrofitted with a third-party stand. A tilt function was not provided by Toshiba with the included stand.
Ports
camera
This monitor does not have a camera.
Loudspeaker
Features
- The display/monitor supports Frame Rate Compensation.
Panel manufacturer
Many manufacturers of monitors and TVs fall back on third-party manufacturers, such as Samsung or LG, when choosing the actual display (panel). Thus, many of the monitors have the same panel and, conversely, differ only in their design, additional functionalities, the software used and, of course, the price. Two monitors from Toshiba or another manufacturer with an identical panel do not necessarily have to have the same picture quality, but it is usually a first indicator for a purchase decision. The panel used here is originally from Innolux and has the model number V580DK2-KS2.
WiFi / Bluetooth
Power consumption
In standby mode, the device consumes approximately 0.3 w. When switched off, on the other hand, the monitor consumes only 0.3 w. The monitor can be operated on a 110v power supply. There are 1.9 amps specified. The power grid has to supply a frequency of 50 hz to 60 hz.
