i like both Bravia an LG (or Philips same company)
I bought a Sanyo and realized my mistake.
Make sure its 1080 not 720.
At 32”, it’s hard to tell the difference. At the extra cost, it’s kind of pointless.
“Make sure its 1080 not 720.”
Does it matter for a 32” screen and do screens that size have a 1080? Just askin.
Is that really going to matter on a 32" screen? Also a 1080i will be more expensive than a 720p at the same screen size.
I was at my local Best Buy yesterday and saw a large stack of boxes of rather inexpensive 720p 32" LCD TV's.

Why?
“Make sure its 1080 not 720.”
At 32” it is not likely to matter.
Additionally, consider what your source material is likely to be.
For example, my DishNetwork HD boxes are 720p native resolution. Having it upscale to 1080p may improve it, and then again, often it does not.
The xbox360 will display a 1080p picture, as will the ps3, and in games where they are encoded in 1080p it is stunning. That said, MOST games are encoded in 720p natively and the tv, through the hdmi cable and xbox/ps3, auto set it to 720p. So there is not advantage in those games.
Realistically, if you are coming from a 27” tube, you will be impressed with 720p because it is significantly better. If you can afford the 1080p and it is not that much more in price, it is probably worth getting as source content improves over the years and more 1080p sources are available. However, that said, you will be very happy with 720p and the difference in most cases is negligible.
Cheers!
I agree about something other than vizio but for a 32” TV, 720p is fine.
1080p doesn’t matter @ 32” screen size, which is why almost all of them are 720p.
Can you get a 32” set that’s native 1080?
I have a Bravia and love it, but a friend has a Samsung and LOVES it. Plus, Best Buy is blowing them out... great prices!
