I have just bought a Sharp LC32BT8E LCD HD ready TV after many hours searching the internet and I can assure anyone after a good looking television then this has to be a contender! The picture quality is great as is the sound. I paid 360-00 for ours so there are some good deals out there if you can be bothered to spend a bit of time looking. 5 star this one.

hi all I got this tv over a year ago haven`t had any major problems with it until I got all hd equiptment e.g xbox 360 using component inputs and a new pc using hdmi input Theres a nasty ghost/glare when using hd inputs thats really annoying but theres a tweak in the main lcd/service mode to remedy the fault so all in all this hdtv is the best value for money but now im gonna change to a non rear projection hd tv sony rules in picture and sound quality you always get what you pay for and at the reduced prices now you have a perfect home theatre overall very good tv

a very very good price and a very very good tv. A good amount of connections and incorporates a BBE sound system built in. A convenient size (42 inches) big enough trust me, that fits in any room in the house if we wanted to move its current position. The picture quality is good but lacks contrast ratio and deep colour enrichment. Apart from that I am pleased with this tv as anyone else who brought this set should be too.

a good sony product

Wow. What can i say? Well a lot really. First off is the amount of comments this set recieves by friends and family. They are amazed at the size, looks, sound and picture quality overall. My close friend has a sammy 50 inch plasma but he doesn`t stop saying how the quality of the picture on this set is better than his. Even though this is a rear projection, i have to say it does beat many of the flat lcd and plasma ranges out there. The only downfall is that its missing a second hdmi port which the updated version has and full hd. Other than that a fantastic set which we are all very proud of but still to this day can`t figure out why its cheaper than others for what you get.

Bought this TV in June 2006 and I cannot fault it in anyway. Picture is by far the best I`ve seen and I`ve not even got a HD box! The size is very decieving, looks much bigger than it really is which is always good. The quality of this TV is outstanding. Memory card slot is great, nice and handy and all our friends just pop theyre card in and we can see they`re photo`s nice and big. 10/10

I bought this set from Currys. I am astonished that for £399.99 it is so fantastic. If you replaced the `Orion` badge for a `Sony` nobody would be the wiser. It looks great, pictures is superb especially in HD, set-up is easy peasey, sound quality is good. I am delighted and cannot recommend it enough.

I have had this TV for just over 1 month and love it. The sound is great, I can get all the digital channels without a top box. Great for my kitchen (which is where I watch TV the most). Not the best for moving sport programmes, dosn`t worry me don`t watch them. I would recommed this TV and am just buying a second for my mother.

I bought this TV off eBay for 300 pounds and I’m very impressed I`m only using it with a ps3 (HDMI) so I don`t know what it’s like on other outputs but HDMI is very good and I am delighted with the price and quality in my opinion a bargain. Hope this help people deciding whether or not to get this TV. I strongly recommend you do.

Just bought this T.V and ive gotta say that im very impressed. If your looking for a budget BIG T.V then seriously think about this one. O.k it doesnt have and intergrated digital tuner but its not the end of the world. I have sky tv so this wasn`t an issue for me anyway (if i bought a tv with one in it wouldnt have been used) i also have an Xbox 360 which when run in 1080i looks the bee`s knee`s. i was amazed at the pure quality of the picture, how sharp and colourful HD really is (why i havn`t bought one before god only knows). Sky is also clear obviously its not going to be as good as HD but for the size of the tv i thought it may struggle a little as other LCDs ive seen even ones more expensive than this seem to, but to my surprise it doesn`t, blacks and darker shades of colours have a clean defined look which impressed me its very watchable. The sound that comes out of the speakers is also very good nice and crisp and quite punchy. Overall I`m glad that i chose the Philip`s over any of the other rival companies, well worth the money, if you want a good tv at a not so `break the bank price` then i would definately consider this one.

Excellent. I`m more than happy with it. Back plastic panel is good for covering wires into back but can creak with changes in temp but otherwise cannot fault it. It is bulkier than others I have seen but that Just makes it feel like better quality. Swivel base good but limited and viewng angle is excellent. Illuminated remote is a bit pointless but does add something that others don`t have. All round winner for price, size and quality.

Got this TV a few weeks back as i work as a sales assistant in Currys Digital. By far the best 32` TV on the market at this moment of time, far more advanced than the other leading brands such as Panasonic, LG, Toshiba and Sony. The Pixel Contrast is nearly 4 times the ammount!! Getting Cheaper and Cheaper by the week and looks great with the full black Surround. The EPG (Electronic Programme Guide) Is brilliant allowing you to view 7 days in advance and set reminders just like Sky Plus with the Auto Update on Freeview is easy to use and totally idiot proof! BUY ONE NOW!!

One of the few widescreen TVs with auto format, so actually works properly with freeview (via SCART):- 16:9 and 4:3 content automatically display correctly. WHY DON`T ALL WIDESCREEN TVs HAVE THIS! Good picture and sound. Excellent TV for the price. Appears now to be discontinued from Argos. {Happy Chappy - I think your set must be faulty}

This television is terrific, not only is the picture wonderful but the sound quality is perfect too. Samsung are renowned for being a leading brand in Televisions and this model only endorses this. I would recommend this TV to anyone looking for a new model not only is it good value for money but it looks more expensive than it is and the quality shines through.

Lovely TV that has few faults. Comes with built in freeview that offers stunning picture. Freeview image can jump if movement is present near the television, but still provides excellent quality viewing for a comparitively cheap price. Lovely looks and the speaker quality provides enough bass to move the stand (which can, of course, be altered). Great for viewing DVD films on. All in all this TV is great simply becuase it provides outstanding picture quality and sound for a price that will mostly get you 26` on other well known brands. Almost faultless television; well worth considering.

Bought this product in May 2006. What an excellent picture. Was totally amazed that it was so clear and the freeview box built in saved a lot of hassle. Friends and family have since also purchased this because, with the all black, high sheen surround, it looks the business. Would make any front room stand out. Price is dropping all the time and so fast becoming real value for your money. Would definitely recommend this television.

Spent ages looking for the right TV at the right price. Looked at the Tosh 32wlt66, Sony 32 2000 and the Panasonic. Saw the right price on Dixons (£665 inc del. Great serice, lots of contact, delivered as promised on time) and took the plunge. The Panasonic 32lxd60 is brilliant. Easy set up (linked to my Sony VCR and set that up automatically)with brilliant digital tuner. The picture is that good that at times with a digital signal short comings in the TV recording equipment are evident, particularly in some live broadcasts! Could not recommend enough.

Well, what can I say. This is the first TV I have bought in 15 years. My old one was a 25 inch sony trinitron which I have now promoted to the bedroom and is still going strong. Just like other people who have commented on this model, I too am very impressed with everything about it, from the picture quality and sound to the slick design - and I haven`t even got HD yet. I believe they have now stopped making these models and I only purchased my 10 months ago when they had just entered the market.

Had this product nearly 12months now,no real problems however in digital mode you can not alter the picture format . Only paid £299 for mine so think good value for money, speakers are abit tinny but if you go into menu and sound set up you can play around with sound equaliser to produce a better sound.

Purchased just recently - very very happy!

Comet had reduced price to £1099 - extremely good value for money for a good brand 37`. Usually for this price would have to go with those brands you`ve never heard of. (things like wonkydonk!)

We were expecting the usual 4 hours...to set up tv and build stand - Once sky box plugged in, switched on tv and worked immediately - auto tuning of terrestial tv worked in 10 mins, put dvd in recorder..worked right away.!!

The picture is amazing, watched lord of the rings on sky movies, almost like being at the cinema - picture very clear. I like the 3d sound (on low) good quality. Speakers run along the bottom of the TV, so screen size is just screen size! no unneccesarry width. Picture slightly affected when watching older broadcasts (like tv gold) but still v good. But that is not the tv fault - due to quality of transmission. Controls easy to use and understand. (even better picture setting sky setup, picture to RGB as opposed to PAL) Have not tried pc, game play yet, but on reading another review (he sounded like he really knew what he was talking about! - all technical and stuff!) he rated it as the best he had seen.! and gave it overall 4.5 out of 5.

Just need to buy the sky hd box now (ROBBIN GITS £299!, + £10 per month!!)

Overall all of us rate as `amazin`!

i am very pleased i purchased this panel, for the price its well worth it, the picture is very good especially with the xd engine working away. i know theres more expensive models out there, ie sonys,panasonics, but if you cant stretch that far, this is an excellent compromise.

Hd in the store looked exeptional with the colours so bold and vivid, no jerking on fast moving pictures, which is common on some sets.

Details on the picture are so good i found myself looking around at the enviroment of the picture thats being displayed, instead if just concentrating say on the main characters on screen. Its probably a combination of the size of the panel and the quality that make you keep trying to look around the picture.

dvds on a non progressive scan player looks exeptional,the panal does its best to progressivly scan the picture it receives, thought this isnt as good as having a dvd progressive player. I am looking forward to getting a dvd player that does this, possible with a hdmi slot, which is the nearest thing to a hd-player there is right now. though of course no where near as good.

if this is you price bracket, avoid the the unknown makes and go for this.

im happy.

great buy,works brilliant on xbox360,freeview pictures are good,as long as the signal it recievs is good! It took a lot of fiddling to get the picture levels right,but once done the picture was crisp and clear,well worth £1,000 price tag best in class!! If you have a few quid extra to spend,Panasonics 32lxd500 is the better of the two,but only just!! When buying hdtv`s,make sure it has the right connections you require,as many of the lcd tv`s I looked at,did`nt have a component input {red,green,blue} jacks,which in my opinion are a must have on any hdtv!! Happy hunting, but you cant go wrong with the samsung le32r51bd. P.S MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR MODEL NUMBERS RIGHT THERE ARE A LOT OF SHEEP IN WOLVES CLOTHING OUT THERE!!!!!!!

Excellent picture with all sources. quoted at 400:1 contrast ratio but in my opinion looks far superior to most other displays with higher on paper figures, even those at 800-1000:1. Stylish design, even a stylish remote and the sound is great too. All in this is one superb tv and also makes an excellent monitor for your pc. Do yourself a favour and check this out, you might just like it!! It is the IDEAL display for a media center pc or the like. This is also one of the cheapest ways to get pixel plus, a real advantage on all non computer sources.

Excellent TV. Really difficult to fault.

Analogue TV pictures: via coax are decent enough, digital cable TV via scart are good and from DVD via scart are good. Now connect this TV up using the digital connection, HDMI, and this set really starts to show you what it is capable of. DVD played through the TV via HDMI is truly amazing. Images take on a 3D quality, pin sharp and superbly rendered. And watching Hi-Def downloads from my media centre, wow!

The only real negatives on the picture side are that I’ve noticed black areas, although beautifully rich, can sometimes look to be lacking in detail, but this seems more dependent on the style of the film. Lower quality sources can suffer from smearing and look a tad mirky (garbage in, garbage out). But these are really minor grumbles when you look at the big picture.

Sound is fine for normal TV broadcasts and for films you’ll be using your external system anyway.

Conclusion: at this price! Go out and buy one. Pictures are bright, well textured with great colours and good contrast. Connections future proof the set. Build quality is exceptional and with it’s glossy black surround looks fantastic in your living room.

At last, our old sony packed up (although it`s been good to us). Spent hours reading what hifi + others trying to decided which LCD, what size etc etc. Ended up between this (or the D500) and a Sharp. In the end, the simple things decided it, slight swival ability and more black on the surround mean`t we went for pani. Then only needed to decide between this and the D500. No contest in my view, as the PC input + memory card slot didn`t justify £100+ more.

TV is great - decent RGB scart and RCA`s from digi box mean that the sound is good, as well as the picture.

Have fun deciding - I hope this helps.

I bought this T.V yesterday after returning a Loewe Xelos A32 and must say i`m really impressed. Compared to the Loewe i`ll admit the picture quality is not as good, but the difference in price is far greater than the difference in quality. The black levels produced by the set are amazingly deep - i can`t wait to watch `Batman Begins` on this set. I won`t bore you with the technical specifications of this set- i`m sure you can find them for yourself. All in all, you won`t be disappointed with this set - i had a loewe and am not going back!
