My main TV watching area is in the living room, but I knew I wanted a TV in the bedroom as well. I have an antique dresser that I wanted to put the screen so I measured it and realized that I could fit a 50" panel on the dresser. This Toshiba 50" C350 looked like it would be perfect.
And for my purposes it is. I can't speak to the Alexa/FireTV capabilities and I've never actually heard the speakers because I already knew I was going to pair it with a stereo paired Apple HomePod Minis. The set up mirrors that of my larger set in the living room (except that's a Samsung 75" 4K QLED TV with a stereo pair of full size Dolby Atmos capable HomePod 2s). All streaming is done through a new AppleTV 4K box that's paired to the HomePod Minis. I'm not using local cable for anything but 1.2 Gbps internet so 4K streaming works perfectly. Set up was easy and I'm blown away with how light this TV is (especially in comparison to the Samsung in the living room). The picture is great for an LED panel and the TV has an almost instant on, I've never seen any sync issues with sound/picture.
The only thing that I wish about this TV (and actually ANY current TV) is that I really wish I was able to get a high quality panel that wasn't a "Smart TV". All I want from the panel are picture settings. I will always be sourcing from an external box and I'd rather not have ANY of the devices in my home listening to me.
The price was definitely right for this one (I think I paid $239 US).
All of that being said, I highly recommend this television, it's been perfect for my needs and I think that anyone else would be quite happy with it!
