The Bottom Line Solid picture quality propels the Samsung LN32A450 LCD TV to the front of small-screen class. The 32-inch Panasonic TC-32LX85 delivers surprisingly impressive picture quality for a small-screen LCD TV. While it's blessed with attractive looks and a solid picture, the higher price of Sony's KDL-32M4000 will turn off many 32-inch LCD comparison shoppers. The Vizio VO32L's mostly solid image quality and fully packed connectivity package make it a top choice among small-screen LCDs. Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs.
