Toshiba 32WL56 32" LCD Flat Screen TV If you are looking to upgrade to a HD Ready LCD TV the Toshiba 32WL56 should be on your list; as well as offering great performance it also has an appealing price tag. The 32WL56 is an excellent entry-level model, however there are a couple of things you need to consider; firstly the aesthetic design is minimalist, or some might say bland in design, the whole look is angular, relatively featureless and grey; secondly this model does not have Freeview built-in which is disappointing and an added expensive if purchasing an external Freeview box. If the design and the Freeview issue are not too much of a concern the 32WL56 will provide impressive performance. The display resolution is 1366 x 768 pixels (16.8 million colours) and has a high contrast and brightness ratio, 800:1. The model is High Definition compatible; displaying 720p, 480p and 480i broadcast formats and supports 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i, 576p and 576i broadcast formats. This will ensure that Standard Analogue and High Definition broadcasts can be viewed; HDMI input allows you to hook up a DVD player relatively easily to view High Definition video. Overall Opinion If you have a budget for a HD Ready LCD TV the Toshiba 32WL56 is a very good choice. The 32-inch LCD screen is large enough to fully appreciate the benefits of High Definition viewing, the screen definition will provide a sharp display and with the HD compatibility your purchase is a good investment as HD broadcasting becomes the norm. |
