needs to be compulsorily Full HD..
Preferred brands :- Sony, Samsung..
As this is my first LCD TV... i am a little bit dum in this so have no idea what to look out for..
and i am from Mumbai- Thane.. so if you can help me out with some retailers who can give a good price.. that would be gr8..
and if you have any suggestions within 40k.. which is abouve 32".. pls lemme know..
I wont go for the Grey market ones.. need warranty strictly.. i am planning to buy it in 3 to 4 days.

Please use the search option there are many threads discussing the same in detail.

In any case as you have made a new thread I would suggest Samsung LA32B550K1R available for 38k and has lots of HDMI ports (3 behind, 1 side)

The Samsung LA32B530 should be your best bet. Or the B550 although I feel it might be slightly above your budget. Alternately, the Philips 32PFL5609 although this might be an IPS panel so may not yield the blackest blacks compared to AMVA/SPVA panels used by the others.

Please go through this thread as well - http://www.techenclave.com/consumer-electronics/suggest-32-lcd-tv-around-35k-156435.html

^I think it's an HD ready model! Ah well, to each his own. Trust your eyes more than thy neighbour or the sales rep. Don't regret over the purchase so test your videos on the display before you invest in one.

@ vriship

you wanted 32" within 40k & preference was sony, samsung .......... :bleh:

no one mentioned the brand you brought, nor the cost was anything near for any brand that was mentioned on this thread, so why this thread ??????

rather buy one & put it on SHOWOFF, as simple as that :eek:hyeah::eek:hyeah:

Boss Adder.. I am a bit confused on this contrast ratios. If I were to buy one with a 1lach:1 ratio, will it screw my cable viewin due to high resolution.

I saw a 6 series 40 incher and man.. was it cool. But then, the salesman was playing mkv files through the USB.

Philips 5609 has 50,000:1 contrast... is that good enuf... Please enlighten

well don't fall for those contrast numbers which is like PMPO in audio.

the real contrast of the samsung would be around 1800 to 2500:1 ,the philips will be less then 1000:1.
a display that has high contrast will give u more depth in the image.

well if u have a cable connection which has a RF out,then even the best of the image processing can't do wonders.
get a DTH like Big tv or TS which comes with the new STB.

if u are migrating from a CRT one needs to get used to the how bad the SD source is on a lcd,no fault of lcd,its just that the lcd is showing the limitation of ur current SD,which your crt couldn't..

Thanks Adder. I guess I will buy the 5609 32 inch. Doesnt look classy but probably VFM.
Also, a 40 inch would screw my wallet
