this is just for my room at uni, so about 26 inches the ideal size. more interested in quality than size, although wouldn't really want anything too much smaller than that. i could stretch to maybe £350, £400 at a real push. mainly to be used for playstation 3 gaming, watching dvds/blu-ray discs. don't really watch tv with it.

i've seen this on amazon, which is a samsung HD LCD

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-LE26B450C4-26-inch...

which seems pretty good value for money. but there is this 32inch for the same price here

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Toshiba-32AV615DB-32-inch-...

so why is it the same price but substantially bigger?

any recommendations welcome, but the closer to £300 the better. i'm currently having to play a PS3 on an old portable show box tv, which is cack.

thanks.

Ross.

edit: just found the same samsung but 32" only a few quid more!

or the panasonic which seems pretty good

sainsbury's had an offer on a 32" samsung for £300 so i got it, that's cheaper than on amazon! picture quality is ok through scart but it's superb for the money through HDMI, it's even a 1080p tv!! pretty happy with that biggrin

got a 32" samsung on a very very good offer. lets just say a fair bit cheaper than amazon smile picture through scart is pretty average, not very good, but through hdmi the picture is sublime, and blu-rays are very clear for what is a budget tv for the bedroom of a uni student biggrinhehe pretty pleased! the PS3 in particular comes up lovely!
