Top 10 best 32-inch LCD TVs in the world today
Most living rooms can't physically take a TV much bigger than 32-inch, making this size by far the most popular in the UK.
But within the 32-inch division, there's plenty of choice. A basic HD-ready set can be found for less than £300 if you search hard, though it's just as easy to spend over £2,000.
There's only one certainty at this size, though – your new telly will be an LCD TV.
If you're lucky it could have LED backlighting, but it won't be a plasma; LG used to make plasmas at this size, but there's not one on sale currently.
A typical circa £500 purchase will sport a Full HD screen, have at least three HDMI inputs, and some kind of 100Hz scanning, though the latter feature varies so much in effectiveness that you've simply got to see it in action in the shop before you shell out any extra cash.
Full HD, media streaming and even built-in Freesat HD – it's all possible on these small TVs. Your living room is about to get bigger. Here are the 10 best 32-inch LCD TVs - arranged according the price.

2. The Pioneer set was a massive let down, Having compared it in store to equivalent efforts from Panasonic or Samsung, the Pioneer LCD was NOT a success because of the dark, soft picture quality.
This post was titled the "Top 10" best 32-inch TVs, I would argue that half of these TVs are in fact mid range!
- Why have you specified the Sharp600 series when the 700 series with 100hz is available.
- Why on earth have you not included the Samsung 6000/7000 LED LCDs? They are still LCD sets after all and are both better than alot of the sets on test here.
- And how about the Panasonic G10? One of the best 32" sets available and you fail to include it?
Massively disappointed with this article! TechRadar, yet another let down, Why don't you get someone with some experience to write these kinda articles?

1. I've been looking at, analysing and demoing LCDs for years but I think the best 32" LCD TV yet released is the Pioneer 32V. Unfortunately it is no longer widely available as Pioneer have pulled out of the TV market but here is a TV - though certainly not flawless - that really does justice to whatever you throw at it. The colour response is stunning, the blacks very deep and the video processing is light-years ahead of the competition. It's only real flaw is that common LCD failing of motion blur.
If you can get your hands on one, it's hard to recommend anything else.
