Help Me Find a Budget 32inch HD TV Please

[Negative Creep]

I need to get with the times and move into the wonderful world of HD gaming, so will be getting a new TV as soon as I get paid. But there's so many out there finding the right one is tough. I need:

- maximum of 32 inches
- 1020 HD
- HDMI socket and the more scarts the better
- good for Xbox 360
- under £400
- not that bothered about sound quality as it will be running through an amp
- any make as long as it's good

So far [url=this|http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148946[/url] seems to be the best one. Anything else I should be looking for? Cheers!

I've just bought a 32 inch Grundig.

Yes it had a budget. Yes, its a great little telly.

Now you know

Do you really need full 1080 HD on a 32" set?!?

You can get a Panasonic 32LMD70 for under £400. It's a pretty damn good set, not a current model mind but that's why it's cheap.

I have been advised (not by a bloke in the shop) to get 1020 for Xbox gaming as there is a noticeable difference and picture quality is all important. Good call on Richer Sounds as well; I'd forgotten there's one 5 minutes from me

what is 1020? never heard of it myself...

If you're looking for both budget and 32" then I really wouldn't look at full HD 1080...the IQ will be ste.

Don't XB360's run at 720 anyway?

mate you have been misinformed.

Going for a budget set with 1080 is a waste of time on a 32"

Firstly you wont find many 32s with 1080

Second the extra detail is pretty hard to notice on anything less than a 37"

Third a 1080p 32" budget set would be utter crap as I've seen many budget sets that are just plain poor and that's at 720!

You'd be much better off with a decent £400 720 set.

BTW Games on the 360 are not in 1080p they're normally 720p/1080i

The only time a 360 kicks out 1080p signals is when watching dvd's and then it's only an upscaled image so not true HD!

I was looking for a 32 inch tv about three weeks ago. I spoke to Derestrictor as I'd looked at all the 'What TV' threads on here and wanted advice. His advice...

In the 32 inch market now...
