Toshiba today has launched three new TVs for the Malaysian market. These include the Z670M and Z870M models, which are equipped with the brand’s latest REGZA Engine ZRi chip with AI capabilities, VIDAA OS platform, and are also offered in 65- and 55-inch sizes.
The first TV, the Toshiba Z670M, is marketed to provide consumers with high-end cinematic and gaming experiences. It features a Quantum Dot LED panel and an onboard REGZA Engine ZRi chip, which enables it to deliver high-quality visuals at up to 4K resolution with Dolby Vision and HDR 10+ support. Also onboard is a Full Array Local Dimming Pro function that improves the contrast ratio of light and dark scenes by adjusting the backlight zones.
For gaming, the TV offers an adaptive, variable refresh rate (VRR) of up to 144Hz, as well as featuring AMD FreeSync Premium, Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and IMAX Enhanced capabilities. In terms of audio, equipped on the Z670M are front firing speakers that come with REGZA Power Audio Pro+, REGZA Bass System, Tru Bass Booster, and Dolby Atmos enhancements for offering users an immersive sound experience.
Next up is the Toshiba Z870M model, which pretty much features the same REGZA powered technologies as well as the numerous visual and audio enhancements as its sibling. However, it loses the adaptive VRR capability but gains a Mini LED panel and the more powerful REGZA Bass Woofer PRO sound enhancement.
Besides that, the TV comes with Far Field Voice, a feature that lets users remotely navigate its controls by voice command. And lastly, there’s also the onboard Smart Sharing function which allows for movie, music and games streaming, as well as photo sharing with any device supported by the Apple HomeKit ecosystem.
Today’s launch also saw the introduction of a third TV, the Toshiba M550M. Unlike the two that were mentioned above, this particular model comes equipped with the brand’s REGZA Engine ZR and runs on Google TV. Additionally, it features a Quantum Dot LED panel which supports resolutions of up to 4K, and comes with Dolby Vision HDR as well as Colour Re-Master Pro. For audio, the M550M offers REGZA Power Audio PRO, Tru Bass Booster, and REGZA Bass Woofer technologies.
The Z670M and Z870M is available for pre-order via the brand’s official Lazada and Shopee stores, as well as Toshiba TV authorised retailers nationwide. Both models are offered at a special pre-order discount price from 1 September until 30 September 2023, where the former starts at RM3,999 for the 55-inch variant and RM4,999 for the 65-inch, while the latter is offered at RM6,099 and RM7,499 respectively. Outside of this promotion, the TVs will retail at RM4,999, RM6,299, RM7,699 and RM9,399 respectively.
Toshiba adds that early birds are also entitled to receive attractive gifts during this period, while stocks last. Those who order the 65-inch Z870M will get a free ROG Ally handheld gaming console, while a Logitech Z906 Surround Speaker is gifted to those who order the 55-inch version. Those who order both the 65- and 55-inch Z670M, on the other hand, will receive a Bose TV Speaker free of charge.
As for the mid-range M550M, Toshiba says the TV will only arrive for the Malaysian market sometime in October this year. The company has yet to confirm pricing for this particular model.
