Hello guys. Newbie here! help!

Started scouting for LCD/LED TVs for <32K (can stretch a bit (2k max) if it is worth it) and I am here to seek your advice.

Here are my specifications:
  • Budget: 25-33K
  • Viewing Distance: 6 feet only
  • Size: 32 inches - Full HD ( Room is small, so I dont think 42" will work out for me)
  • Screen: LCD or LED (IPS Panel or the best one) - best quality at this budget (from what I have read here, LED does not add much to picture quality, but I dont know much! So both are ok as long as picture quality is kick ass)
  • Usage: Need a future-ready TV as I wont be changing it for the next 5 years min.
  • Playback: May watch movies from USB or Laptop, so video format compatibility is important
  • Speakers: good audio output
  • Brands: Panasonic, Samsung, LG or Sony preferred (2012 models mainly)

In short, I want the best total package for the budget. Please help me in selecting the right TV. Many thanks for your attention and time!

I am also looking to buy a TV, and was all set to go for a LED 32 incher, when someone drew my attention to panasonic 42 inch plasma x30D which is available on ebay for around Rs 32,000. Looks too good to be true. Is there any user experience out here?

@arronant

Compared to full HD LED? Even for normal SD viewing?

Yes bro.
Just compare any Samsung LED Like 40D5000 or 46D5000 or above model with any Plasma and you will get to know the difference.
But if anyone wants a big TV at a cheap price and can compromise on the picture quality then only one should go for plasma.
