Buying a new HD TV for my gaming needs; Also for watching Blu-Rays

Good morning people.



I need some of your advice. I've had an unbranded 32" HD TV for about 4 years now, and I think it's time for me to upgrade.

The one I'm currently looking at is this. The reason this has caught my eye, is because it's a 32" and a Samsung LED, which I've heard are quite good and very thin.


My budget is £300-£380. So should I go with this one?



Thanks in advance

Looks good for the price but I'm struggling to find any in depth reviews on it I'm afraid.

Yeah same here. I haven't managed to find any reviews on it. Well not by any review sites anyway.

Also, I have noticed it's only 720p. Is 1080p really going to make a noticeable difference on a 32"?

Probably not, I struggle to notice a difference on a 50" TV.

How you doin?

The only problem I can see with this TV is that a couple of people complain about the lack of bass through the speakers.That gives me the impression the sound might be a bit tinny,which is a common problem with a lot of flat screen tv's due to the lack of depth in the speakers.
I have a Samsung which has really crap sound but I have it hooked up to a surround system so I dont mind that.
Otherwise it looks like a great tv and thats a really good price you found there as well.

Yeah, that's something I'm really not worried about, because I'll have it hooked up to a beefy 1000W 5.1 System. So do you think I should go for it then?
P.S Thanks for your input :)

I certainly do mate,for a 32" Samsung LED at that price I would snap it up.
Also if you run out of razors you could probably shave with one of those they are so thin :P

Haha. Cheers mate. I actually do need to pick up a new razor as well, so thanks for reminding me lol.
I think, I'll order it then. But I've heard pretty bad things about Pixmania so I'll probably order it from Amazon or Dixons seeing as it's roughly the same price.
Thanks for your help mate. It's greatly appreciated :D
