Panasonic TC-L32X2 review : 32 inch Class Viera 720p LCD HDTV

Posted to Televisions 2010-12-07


Panasonic TC-L32X2 review : 32 inch Class Viera 720p LCD HDTV
If you are making the switch from standard to high-definition televisions, then consider the 32-inch Panasonic TC-L32X2 720p HDTV, which is an affordable viewing solution for the average bedroom or guest room in your home. One of the advantages of this model compared to others is that it displays optimal image quality at virtually any angle, eliminating the color distortions of previous generation LCDs. And with the latest features, such as SD and iPod compatibility, this Panasonic HDTV is certainly hard to beat for the price.

Measuring 20.2" x 31.5" x 3.3" (21.7" x 31.5" x 8.6" with stand) and weighing 21 lbs (24.3 lbs with stand), this model is a great, ergonomic accessory that can be mounted on your bedroom wall or in your small room entertainment center. Obviously, the screen size is insufficient for large spaces (such as a living room), but fortunately it comes equipped with advanced angle viewing so you won't miss a thing no matter where you are in the room.


Rating:  4.4 out of 5

Value

The Panasonic Viera TC-L32X2 is well engineered on all levels, but the most impressive aspect is the price tag. Several consumers who purchased this television have commented that this model costs roughly the same as a smaller tube-style model cost just a few years ago. If you are looking for a budget-friendly LCD and do not need all the fancier features or resolutions of more expensive models, then perhaps this HDTV is a good choice for you.

Features

Outside of the excellent viewing quality, one of the first things you will notice about this model is that it features custom LCD backlight adjustment, meaning that you can easily modify the backlight to suit the room in which the television is displayed. This also enhances your power-saving capabilities, although this HDTV itself is very energy efficient. Some of the more lucrative features include the universal iPod dock, VIERA Image Viewer, VIERA Link compatibility, integrated ATSC tuner, 20,000:1 contrast ratio, three HDMI ports, two composite ports, one optical audio plug, one component port, and a PC port.

Summary

Overall, Panasonic has outdone themselves with this 32-inch Viera series 720p LCD HDTV. Although we would like to see additional features such as built-in USB and better integrated audio system, all in all this is a great device for the price. If you are tight on space and don't want to spend a fortune on a television, then this is one of the many good choices you should consider. Users with larger spaces or bigger budgets should definitely consider one of Panasonic's higher tier series.

Pros

  • Efficient- features adjustable LCD backlight for your preference
  • Featured- nice number of HDMI and other ports, lacks USB
  • Modern- iPod dock, VIERA Link, and VIERA IV compatibility
  • Reasonable- great price makes this LCD score high with consumers

Cons

  • Limited- users with large spaces may need larger screen size
