If you’re looking at entry level HD sets, you probably don’t anticipate the very highest quality from your first purchase. The Panasonic Viera TX-L32S10 is worth checking out. Expect full 1080 dpi resolution from this model. You’ll have a 32 inch screen that gives you perfect HD images and is priced way below others in the market.
There are so many positives with the Panasonic TX-L32S10, that it’s hard to even find downsides to it. However, it needs to be noted that there is an issue with calibrating the backlight and colour outputs from the main onscreen menu. It’s a very simple onscreen menu but that may be a downer for some more advanced users.
With SD and 720p resolution, there is a 1 to 1 pixel mapping capability, making the clearest resolution possible. With this Panasonic TX-L32S10 1080p resolution, there is not 1 to 1 mapping but the quality is incredible. There is no edge enhancement but that doesn’t seem to cause any issues, in fact, those using 60p games through xbox and their PS3’s seem to really like this set.
Not being able to map at a 1 to 1 ratio causes an issue if you are trying to use the Panasonic TX-L32S10 as a monitor for your PC. You may have some issues with it if you’re running heavy text applications but otherwise, you are not going to have any problems with this high quality HDTV. You surely won’t find this quality anywhere else for the price.
The Panasonic TX-L32S10 is a gamers dream come true. There is very little input lag, making it ideal for all of your gaming consoles. Rumor has it that there is a little bit of ghost imaging from a backlight flickering, but the resolution is incredible and the ghosting is nearly impossible to detect. You’ll never lose focus on your game with this model.
The quality of sound on the Panasonic TX-L32S10 is incredible, especially considering the placement of the speakers. A little more thought could have been given to the placement but it is obvious that Panasonic was attempting to point the speakers out so that viewing from the front of the TV would be perfect.
It’s not hard to add surround sound to the Panasonic TX-L32S10 to improve the quality of sound. Most viewers will have no issues with the sound quality at all.
This entry level HDTV does an incredible job when it comes to giving you crystal clear, sharp images. The price is beyond reasonable and quite a steal when you price other sets in the same category and size. This is a perfect television for those who are just beginning with HD sets. The Panasonic TX-L32S10 is value for money.
