Bit too rich for me, I'm going to buy from Amazon whatever TV i go with mainly due to their 30 day money back guarantee... at the moment i'm leaning towards the LG 32LM620T [/size]http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-32LM620T-32-inch-Widescreen-Freeview/dp/B007IYW1A8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352062289&sr=8-1

Can't really think of anything bad to say about LG (Lucky Goldstar) sets in general, but I do know they are one of the main handful (and I do mean no more than half a dozen) manufacturers of the actual LCD/LED/Plasma panels that are sold worldwide to ALL television manufacturers.
In short, the same screen that is in your £3000 Sony Bravia is also the same screen from the same production line as the cheap bit of £200 crap from Tesco/Argos that generally goes under the name Technika/Acoustic Solutions/whatever.
The only difference is in the electronics that surround the actual panel.

Thought LG meant Liquid Gold or is it Life's Good ... What do you think of the TV in the link ? :-\
-
LG = Lucky Goldstar, or Goldstar as it was known here a while back. Budget brand.
For the price, I'd go with DTM's suggestion for £20 more.

So don't use Amazon then. They aren't always cheap...

A quick Google shows that both the Panny & the LG get reasonably decent reviews for overall performance versus price versus reliability.
My advice would be to get yourself down to your local Richer Sounds (or similar), and compare both sets side by side in the shop and make your mind up from that given the small price difference.
Richer Sounds also operate a 5 year extended warranty that will cost you 10% of the retail price of the set, and while I don't generally buy in to extended warranty crap as SOGA covers me (although that can be a bit of a fight), I'd say take their offer as you get the money back after 5 years if you don't have a claim.
-
Still on the hunt (hanging on also for the possible bargains) I've ruled out LG, Samsung 50/50, Panasonic is a contender, I'm not so sure I need / want 3D which would bring the price down to get a better TV such as the Panasonic as has been suggested... As daft as this may sound or not logical even, I want to buy my next TV from Amazon (direct). I have my reasons...
So I'm after a 32" minimum Full HD, Smart TV (3D I'm undecided on whether its worth it or not ) for under £500 not a penny more ...
-
Make sure you get one with an Ethernet connection on - that way you can access the web for various things like the iPlayer. Have it on our LG (from Richers) and use it regularly.
However, be very careful with Panasonic models as their iPlayer access was only added recently - so check specifically that it has this. Some older models which they might want to shift cheap might not have iPlayer access. A simple Google search will sort you out.
You can also get a wifi module for some - but I'd go for a wired connection every time.
Whichever model you get, it will be virtually certain to do a software update as soon as you connect it on line. That's fine as it will have been many weeks/months since it was made due to shipping etc and will update to the latest version. My mates Panasonic was introduced to the web for the first time recently and took about 10 mins to update as soon as it was plugged into his router.

I learned in the hard way that this word does not mean the same for you and the producer firm (may be not all but most) ;D >:( >:( :-X

so my advice wont be about brand.. instead how the firm behaves when there is a problem in product..
so try to google "product name model problem" on the net..

we have similiar laws here, but some certain companies have some strong political relations and they even dont listen to the court decisions :o :( >:(
their first response is to take your tv and never bring it back >:( >:(

Did I not hear Panasonic is to leave TV market? To focus on tablet panels instead?

Did I not hear Panasonic is to leave TV market? To focus on tablet panels instead?
That is kinda worrying :-* ... Samsung is the biggest TV maker at the moment according to Which.co.uk and they recommend this TV in my price range Samsung UE32ES6300 :-\
-
Did I not hear Panasonic is to leave TV market? To focus on tablet panels instead?
Its a possible, Panasonic make very few panels for others (Samsung and LG have the share there with Samsung Sharing/licensing technology and plants with Sony - soon to end though) and wish to get volumes up.
This may mean the move away from the Tv market and just supply the panels to others (they have some very good tech) but unlikely to happen in the short term. A killer for Panasonic is the death of Plasma which is a technology they heavily backed
I suspect they may stop investing in the latest tech and effectively phase out through obsolesence effectively....but this would liekly be way beyond anything affecting a purchase now or in the short term.
Time will tell!

worry about how samsung will behave when it becomes donald itself ;D :-\
panels dont have problem(mostly) , internal receivers creates problem..

My samsung is good, and I bought from John Lewis to get the free five year warranty.
-
As long as the reviews don't bring up any horrific points (like dying after a few months, or only displaying QVC), just get stuck in and buy one.
I umm-ed and ah-ed for a week when it came to chuck the CRT away a few years back before realising quite a few of these TV reviews / articles / forum posts are made by people who have way too much time on their hands.
I would not recommend 3D on a 32" tv unless you are sitting very very close, the neighbours 42" 3D telly looks odd as it is.
BTW I have an LG 32LH7000 and it's been grand.

My local panasonic dealer (Sheffield) has offered to try and price match, plus they pointed out that they currently offer a full 6 year warranty on all thier panasonic TV's :y

We got 42" Samsung from comet-got bit off for cash-after asking-bit cheeky but saved a few pounds :y :y

Only on models built after a certain date actually, some time during 1st Q of 2011. My mates was built in Jan 2011 and although it had a huge leap forwards in terms of SW releases it wasn't capable of iPlayer - Panasonic confirmed this and it's quite well known if anyone cares to Google. As I said, should not be a problem with new purchase - unless it's been in stock for almost 2 years .....

Never use bbc iplayer anyway, Just use Lovefilm and Netflix but i use a HDMI cable from PS3 at the moment to get them on the TV so really do i need a smart TV if the PS3 does it, Unless i'm missing some advantage to a Smart TV :-\

Get one that's really smart. Then you won't have to post your questions on here. ;D

A lot of new TV's have freeview built in, all well and good but we use freesat, I assume box can be connected? :-\ :-\ :-\

If only it was that simple STMO, ;D ...So much crap out there and at some point in life I've had bad experiences with all brands as have many people i'd have thought..
Before it was a toss up between these two TV's LG 32LM620T - Samsung UE32ES6300 they seem to have everything, but now i'm not so sure, They Seem too good to be true unless I'm being paranoid ::) :-\ :D

Doubt i'll be getting the Panasonic either, Doesn't look like it has a Lovefilm app, And if i wanted the 3D version from Amazon its over £500, Looks like i'm going to have to pick from these two LG 32LM620T -Samsung UE32ES6300 :-\
-
Now then i need to get a grip and just decide...
I have considered everyone's suggestions and I'm grateful :)
So unless anyone has any reason for me not to buy this TV please feel free to say... As I wont be buying for a few weeks...

Information I was given yesterday said that either can connect to a sat dish anyway and in fact they prefer to do this as this gives the best signal........ :y :y

I echo MarkDTM's comments. Panasonic Viera's once properly set up look amazing. Samsung's and LG's just look artificial. I dont think a shop floor viewing helps either as they are usually set to some dynamic preset to appear vivid to the customer.
The alternatives to Vieras are higher end Sonys, but then you are looking at nearly double your budget.

Agreed. Was ready to buy a Samsung when I changed 18 months ago. Saw one that I liked in the shop but then a relative bought it and the picture was appalling, and not really improved by a tweak of the settings. A bit of digging found that they had several types of panel what went into the same model of TV, some good (and no doubt singled out as display models in the shops), and some appalling. That was Samsung struck off the list.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned that I could see is regarding the 3d side. Active or Passive!
Is the tv going to be used for allot of 3d viewing? and by how many? If not then what follows may not be that important to you..
I personally would take the LG LM620T over all the others in this respect. Mainly because the LG uses passive technology. I have the older LW550T and love it. I know people with £2000 Samsung tv's and rate the 3d on mine better as its flicker free and generally nicer to look at.
The LM620 is a newer model to mine and I personally know some one who has just bought the 47" version and they are very happy with it.
I am not saying the other TV's mentioned are no good, I'm sure they are, but most if not all will be active 3d and depending on the individual can cause headaches and nausea. You can also see flickering in your peripheral vision if your near a window or other light source.
Just something to be aware of when looking at 3d tv's. :y

Thanks for your informative reply Richard :)
Basically it will be for the bedroom for night watching 1/2 people, films, ps3, and as many 3D films that I can get hold of, If I can get on with watching 3D films that is... LG does look good has had good reviews mostly on amazon was a contender till I got put off it, With some saying sound issues, smart tv buggy, won't last five minuets, needs wifi dongle, etc Other than that it does have a very good spec for the money :-\

Amazon price is now £549, I would be tempted to google the model you are after and add price to the end of the search. Then get cheeky and see what you can get price matched else where, as mentioned before, my local dealer will try and price match and is offering a 6 year warranty.
Am confused as to why they are oddering a 10" larger screen for £30 less though.

I am not saying the other TV's mentioned are no good, I'm sure they are, but most if not all will be active 3d and depending on the individual can cause headaches and nausea. You can also see scrotebaging in your peripheral vision if your near a window or other light source.
Just something to be aware of when looking at 3d tv's. :y
what on earth is scrotebaging? falling foul of the word censor?
LOL!! Erm I wrote "flick-ering" (without the -) Not quite sure why that is censored. Bit bonkers if you ask me! And the word that replaces it is more offensive! Come on!!

Amazon price is now £549, I would be tempted to google the model you are after and add price to the end of the search. Then get cheeky and see what you can get price matched else where, as mentioned before, my local dealer will try and price match and is offering a 6 year warranty.
Am confused as to why they are oddering a 10" larger screen for £30 less though.
Dont think the bigger one has 3D

Well went to a shop that sell TV's that are switched on (PC World) and i checked most of them and must say i don't see what all the fuss about 3D is, Firstly I thought to my self is the 3D function switched on ??? and someone soon came along and said "yep isn't it great" ;D , I was blown away (in a bad way) as it just looks like normal TV but blurry ;D no jumping out pictures like i had imagined.. And Next onto picture quality in order i thought looked better #1 Panasonic #2 LG #3 Samusung #4 Toshiba .. Didn't see a Sony's anywhere, Plus the shop was packed out. And 32" looks very small in the shop at least, 42" Looks about and ideal size in the shop but in the bedroom im not so sure... In other words back to square one again. :-X

Sounds like you didnt have the 3d specs on for the tv ::)
I been looking at beds where the tv pops up from the end of the bed......they can take upto usually around a 40" tv........have you looked at those :-\

The shop assistant played a demo 3D file on the Samsung ES6300 40" Active 3D TV and on the Passive LG lm620t 42" and both just look like 2D but blurry ... As for the TV popping out the bed i'd doubt i could afford that :o Nice idea though ...

(not TV related post) As said I Was at a PC WORLD store today looking at TV's, Afterwards I looked at the computers section and they where connected to the internet and this Apple computer was hooked up to the stores speakers so went onto YouTube and played this video.. Omega V6 Growling on full though half of the store.. that made my day ;D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR4aK0Bg43Q (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR4aK0Bg43Q)
Fame at last for the beautiful Omega V6
Did notice they tried to find the computer but i had masked it with another tab :-X ;D
Childish I know :P
