TOP 14 best 32-inch TVs according to customer reviews

32-inch TVs are in great demand in the CIS countries due to their relatively low prices. Of course, such TVs will not work for a living room or a large room. The diagonal is small, the picture resolution is low, and the sound is rather weak, but for a kitchen or a small room, a 32-inch TV will be just right. But when purchasing such a TV, it should be understood that the resolution Full HD and quality Smart TV will be only in models costing 15,000 rubles, everything below this price comes with HD and mostly without Smart TV. I grouped my rating of the best 32-inch TVs in 2020 by price. All presented models are the best in their price range. In the selection of models, I relied on my experience of use and feedback from real owners.

Best up to 10 thousand

Budget models are usually purchased for hotels, summer cottages or kitchens. They have the minimum required functionality, good picture and very mediocre sound. Nevertheless, the price attracts many users. In addition, such TVs cope well with the function of broadcasting digital terrestrial television.

Hyundai H-LED32ES5004

A budget TV from a well-known South Korean brand. The liquid crystal display has HD resolution and 178 ° viewing angles. The TV accepts any TV without additional equipment - built-in tuners DVB-T2, DVB-C, DVB-S2. 2 speakers of 8 W are responsible for the sound, Dolby Digital is supported. It cannot be called good - the problem of all state employees. The TV is equipped with a built-in media player and browser. If their capabilities seem small, you can install the software to your taste - the model runs on Android 7.0 OS. There are standard functions - timer, child protection, TV guide, teletext, the ability to record your favorite programs to an external medium, including with a time shift. There are also all modern connectors - 2 antenna, 2 HDMI, 2USB, composite input, LAN, coaxial output and CI +. Supports Wi-Fi wireless technologies - for network access and DLNA for transferring images to the screen in real time from other compatible devices (smartphone, tablet, etc.). The price is 9 800 rubles.

pros

• Price.
• Nice design - thin bezels.
• Nice picture.
• All tuners are built in.
• Smart TV based on Android TV.
• WiFi and DLNA support.

Minuses

• For some users, 2 USB ports are not enough.
• The remote control is insensitive, you need to point it directly at the TV.
• Long response to commands from the remote control.
• Smart system braking.
• Mediocre sound.
• Pre-installed apps cannot be removed.
• No headphone output.

Great budget Smart TV. The only "smart" representative in this section of the rating. It performs the main functions well, although the technical filling and the speed of work cannot be compared with more expensive competitors. I recommend it only if you need maximum savings. In the price segment up to 10,000 rubles, I recommend choosing the models without smart TV, presented below.

Thomson T32RTE1250

It differs from Hyundai H-LED32ES5004 in the absence of Smart TV. The multimedia functionality comes down to playing content from external media, thanks to the built-in media player, and recording video to a USB flash drive, including with a time shift.Compared to the competitor, the cut-down functionality affected the number of connectors, there is no LAN, instead of two USB we have 1, the antenna input is also 1, but an additional headphone output appeared. Composite input, coaxial output and CL slot are standard. Built-in DVB-T / T2 / C tuners. In general, this is quite enough for comfortable use of the TV without smart functions. In terms of image quality, the Thomson T32RTE1250 outperforms the competitor, due to an expanded brightness range and an increase in the frame rate in dynamic scenes up to 100 fps. HD resolution. Sound - 2 loudspeakers 10 W each, in quality on par with the competitor, but a little louder. Price 8 700

pros

• Nice design - thin bezels.
• Nice picture.
• Headphone jack.

Minuses

• No DVB-S tuner.
• 1 USB output.
• Mediocre sound.
• Inconvenient menu.

A simple TV for receiving TV, except for satellite (you need an additional tuner). If you need a TV with smart functionality, pay attention to Hyundai H-LED32ES5004 or models costing over 10,000 rubles.

Polarline 32PL13TC

Another representative of simple technology without smart functions. Compared to Thomson T32RTE1250 and Hyundai, H-LED32ES5004 boasts:

• Equalizer - the sound can be adjusted to suit your preferences and watched content. Built-in acoustics power - 20 W.
• VGA, SCART connectors (perhaps for some it is relevant) and as many as 3 HDMI. But the composite input has been replaced with a mini-Jack - you need an adapter. There is a 3.5 mm headphone jack. USB - connectors 2.

The image quality does not cause any particular complaints from users, although the ratings of Hyundai H-LED32ES5004 and Thomson T32RTE1250 are higher for this parameter on the Yandex market. Functionality - standard (TV guide, timer, child lock, recording to a USB flash drive) + multimedia player for playing content from external USB media. The price is 8 400 rubles.

pros

• Nice picture.
• Thin screen bezel.
• Headphone jack.
• Equalizer.
• 3 HDMI.
• 2 USB.
• VGA, SCART connectors.

Minuses

• No DVB-S tuner.
• Component and composite output via adapter.
• Mediocre sound quality.
• Inconvenient remote control.
• The remote control must be pointed clearly at the signal receiver.

A good TV with alternative connectors, which are rarely used today. The picture and sound quality is on par with the competition. The sound can be adjusted using the equalizer. An excellent choice considering the price. If you need the most budget TV, SkyLine 32YT5900 would be a good alternative. If you are interested in smart features in this segment, you should pay attention to Hyundai H-LED32ES5004, and it is better to choose a model more expensive than 10,000 rubles.

SkyLine 32YT5900

A TV from the Belarusian brand with the most necessary functionality. Accepts only terrestrial analog and digital TV DVB-T / T2. To watch cable and satellite TV channels, you will have to purchase additional equipment. True, the CL slot is still present. In addition, the model is equipped with the following interfaces: antenna, 1 USB, 2 HDMI, digital audio output, headphone jack, VGA, SCART, component and composite inputs. In terms of image and sound quality, it is worthy of its closest price competitors. In terms of functionality, it is also not inferior - a sleep timer, parental control, a built-in media player, teletext, recording to a USB flash drive, etc. The body is 0.5-1 cm thicker than competitors. The price is 7,500 rubles.

pros

• Price.
• Thin screen bezel.
• Nice picture.
• Simple menu and control.
• headphone jack.
• VGA, SCART connectors.

Minuses

• The body is thicker than the competition.
• Flimsy legs.

• No DVB-C and DVB-S tuners.
• Weak digital tuner, demanding on signal quality.
• 1 USB.

A cheap option for a summer residence or kitchen. I do not recommend it for use as a main TV. It is better to overpay 2,000 rubles and choose between Thomson T32RTE1250 or Polarline 32PL13TC.

The best up to 15 thousand

TVs in the range of up to 15 thousand in image and sound quality are not much different from state employees. But the Smart TV function in some models of this price segment is implemented well. It's about Xiaomi Mi TV 4A 32 T2 and KIVI 32H600GR.But the extended functionality is limited by the technical component, you have to put up with the system slowdown.

Xiaomi Mi TV 4A 32 T2

Differs in the presence of Smart TV based on Android, dressed in the company's proprietary shell. The PatchWall interface is able to select content to suit the interests of the user and does this more accurately the longer the TV is operated by one person. By the way, you can control it not only from the remote control, but also from a smartphone, as well as voice commands - a microphone is built into the remote control. Technical stuffing - 4-core T962 Amlogic Cortex A53, 1.5 GHz, graphics chip Mali-T450 MP5, 750 MHz, 1 GB of RAM, ensure stable but not fast operation of the smart system. There is a built-in browser, media player, and if you wish, you can install compatible software from the Google Play Market. The model boasts a special picture detail with support for HDR10 and Hybrid Log-Gamma technologies. Rich dynamic scenes from any viewing angle. Standard acoustics - 2 speakers of 5 W each, average quality. Dolby Audio and DTS-HD are supported. There are all modern connectors, as well as wireless interfaces Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, DLNA. The price is 15,000 rubles.

pros

• Thin frame.
• Excellent picture with HDR10 and Hybrid Log-Gamma support.
• Smart TV based on Android TV 9.0.
• PatchWall proprietary intelligent interface.
• All tuners are built in.
• There are all the necessary connectors.
• Smartphone control.
• Voice control.

Minuses

• Complexity of configuration and control (unusual remote control).
• A small margin of brightness.
• Chinese out of the box.
• Weak digital tuner, demanding on signal quality.
• Turns on for a long time.
• Little RAM.
• Sometimes does not respond to voice commands.
• Smart TV is slow.

The TV is not flawless. Many users complain about lack of brightness and color distortion at an angle. Not everyone is satisfied with the sound. Management has become a stumbling block - some people like the minimalism of the remote control and the ability to "command" with their voice, while others, on the contrary, are repelled by it. My advice is to weigh the pros and cons before buying. The model is more designed for Smart TV and a young audience. For smart TVs from leading brands, you will have to pay almost twice as much, and as a budget alternative, you can only offer KIVI 32H600GR or Hyundai H-LED32ES5004, but you cannot expect better performance from them.

KIVI 32H600GR

Domestic-made TV in terms of filling and functionality is comparable to Xiaomi Mi TV 4A 32 T2... Resolution of the HD matrix. Built-in tuners DVB-T2, DVB-C. Decent sound - 2 x 8 W speakers. Sharp and detailed images - HDR and MEMC technologies. All modern connectors. Wireless interfaces WiFi, Bluetooth with DLNA support. Smart TV based on Android. Browser and media player on board + the ability to install third-party software. Control with a minimalistic remote control, smartphone or voice commands (purchase a microphone separately). The price is 11,000 rubles.

pros

• Price.
• Great picture with HDR support.
• There are all the necessary connectors.
• Smartphone control.
• Voice control.
• Smart TV based on Android TV.
• 3 year warranty.

Minuses

• No DVB-S.
• Complexity of control (unusual remote control).
• Not all users like the "native browser".
• Voice control does not work out of the box - you need to purchase another remote control.
• Sometimes it slows down.
• Turns on for a long time.
• Little RAM.

Decent Smart TV at an attractive price. It doesn’t stand out with any super-capabilities, sometimes it slows down, it turns on for a long time - everything is in the spirit of budget “Smart” TVs. If you want a smart TV without lags, get ready to pay several times more. In the range of up to 15,000 rubles, you have to be content with what you have. Overpay 4,000 rubles for Xiaomi Mi TV 4A 32 T2 I do not see the point, the filling and functionality are almost identical, except for the proprietary shell of the Chinese OS and the possibility of voice control out of the box.

Sharp LC-32HI3012E

The model is interesting primarily for its excellent sound quality. Equipped with harman / kardon audio system with DTS Tru Surround support. Power 20W - surround, realistic sound like in a movie theater. HD matrix resolution.Active Motion technology (100 frames per second) is used to improve the transfer of dynamic scenes. The functionality is standard (program guide, teletext, timer, child protection, recording on a USB flash drive). Smart TV no. Multimedia capabilities are presented in the playback of content from external USB drives. There are 2 connectors for this, in addition to them there are 2 HDMI, component and composite inputs, 2 antenna inputs, SCART, digital optical audio output, headphone jack and CL slot. Built-in tuners DVB-T2, DVB-C, DVB-S / S2 - stable reception of any signal source. The price is 13,500 rubles.

pros

• Nice picture.
• Good sound.
• All tuners are built in.
• There are all the necessary connectors.

Minuses

• Bad picture out of the box - setup required.
• Few sound and picture settings.
• Unstable legs.

The most unambiguous TV in this section of the rating. A good picture, good sound, signal reception from any source is the optimal set for those who do not need a smart TV. The cost is quite high, and if the sound quality is not fundamentally important to you, you can purchase Thomson T32RTE1250 or Polarline 32PL13TC. As a last resort, you can use the saved funds to purchase a soundbar or other acoustics.

Panasonic TX-32GR300

The TV will delight you with high quality images in HD resolution. High-quality LED backlighting guarantees high fidelity in dynamic scenes. The sound is also an order of magnitude better than that of cheaper competitors - 2 x 8 W speakers with Dolby Digital support. The functionality is standard, inherent in cheaper models. Smart TV no. Confidently accepts DVB-T / T2, DVB-C, DVB-S / S2 signal. Plays multimedia content from external media. Has USB, HDMI (2), VGA composite input, mini-Jack and coaxial output. A CL slot is also available. It differs from the participants in the first section of the rating by its thin body (68 mm). The price is 12,000 rubles.

pros

• Price.
• Slim body.
• Nice picture.
• Nice sound.
• Thin screen bezel.
• All tuners are built in.
• Headphone jack.
• VGA connector.

Minuses

• 1 USB.
• Uneven backlighting - the picture is darkened in the corners.

Good TV at a reasonable price, which is explained by the lack of SmartTV. Perfect for watching any television. If you do not plan to use satellite, you can look for cheaper models from the first section of the rating, but be prepared for the worst picture and sound quality. In my opinion, this is the case when saving is not worth it.

The best under 20 thousand

In this price segment, mainly inexpensive models from well-known brands are presented. Most of these TVs do not support many video formats and codecs. Of their advantages, it should be noted the use of proprietary technologies for improving sound and image, confident reception of a television signal from any sources.

Samsung UE32N5000AU

Model of the initial price category of the manufacturer. It has a good matrix with FULL HD resolution, built-in DVB-T2 / C / S2 tuners with support for Analog Clean View and Digital Clean View proprietary technologies - filtering noise when watching digital and analog TV. The proprietary technology for expanding the color palette Wide Color Enhancer is also used - the images on the screen are bright and vivid, regardless of the room lighting and viewing angle. The multimedia functionality is limited by the built-in media player, the TV does not provide the ability to record your favorite programs on a USB flash drive. There is a timer, child protection, teletext, TV guide as standard. Sound - 2 speakers of 5 W each, the quality is satisfactory. Connectors: 2 antenna inputs, component / composite inputs, USB, 2 HDMI, digital audio out, CL slot. The set is generally not bad, but in 2020 another 1 USB, even for a TV without Smart TV, would be useful. The price is 16,500 rubles.

• Slim body.

Minuses

• 1 USB port.

• A small margin of brightness.

Suitable for watching analog, digital, cable and satellite TV.Multimedia functions are not about this model, they do not support many modern codecs and formats. If you are planning to view content from a flash drive, then it is better to pay attention to TVs up to 15 thousand or more expensive models.

Philips 32PHS5813

It stands out against the background of other participants in this section of the rating by the presence of Smart TV based on the proprietary SAPHI OS. The opinions of users on her account were divided. Some people think that it is better and more convenient than Android TV, while others, on the contrary, are generally a matter of taste. The Philips 32PHS5813 comes preinstalled with a good browser and media player. Access to the network is carried out through the LAN connector, the use of wireless technologies is not provided. The Pixel Plus HD processor is responsible for the high quality of the image in HD resolution, which processes the picture in real time. Reception of all TV signal sources is supported. Sound - 2 speakers of 8 W each, the quality is average, comparable to the closest price competitors. Connectors: 2 antenna inputs, component, composite inputs, 2 USB, 2 HDMI, digital audio out and headphone out, CL slot. The price is 16,000 rubles.

pros

• Price.
• Nice picture.
• Smart TV.
• Recording to a USB flash drive.
• All tuners are built in.
• The ability to connect a keyboard and mouse.

Minuses

• 2 USB outputs may not be enough.
• No WiFi.
• Some formats and codecs are not supported by the media player.
• Not all users like the proprietary SAPHI OS.
• Smart TV sometimes slows down.
• It is almost impossible to install third-party applications.
• Large remote control.

The only Smart TV in this section of the rating. In this case, do not flatter yourself. Smart TV functionality boils down to going online and using applications installed from the factory. Their list is not bad, but still, the lack of the ability to install third-party software in 2020 is not encouraging. In addition, Smart TV may be unstable. To avoid this problem, you should not save money, you need to look after a smart model in the range of more than 20,000 rubles.

Sony KDL-32RE303

TV from a well-known manufacturer. HD matrix resolution. The image quality can be compared with the previous model in the ranking. The technology used to improve the picture Clear Resolution, LiveColour, Motionflow XR 100 Hz - improving color reproduction, clarity and contrast in dynamic scenes. And there are also a large number of image presets. The sound of the device - 2 speakers of 5 W each with support for Dolby Digital, also with a choice of several presets. The functionality is standard, there is no Smart TV. Recording on HDD is possible. This model also has shortcomings with connectors - component and composite inputs are combined (connection via an adapter), headphone output is combined with audio output. There are 2 HDMI and 1 USB connectors for connecting third-party devices. The price is 18,500 rubles.

pros

• Nice picture.
• X-Protection PRO technology to protect your TV from dust, moisture and voltage surges.
• Image enhancement technologies.

• Doesn't support some formats and codecs.
• Long responds to commands from the remote control.

A model for watching analogue, digital and cable television in good picture quality and good sound. Multimedia capabilities are inferior to even cheaper models. You can save money and watch your favorite content from a flash drive without any problems. If at the same time you want to preserve the high quality of the picture and sound, then you should choose the opposite, from more expensive TVs. If the goal is to purchase a TV of a well-known brand for up to 20,000 rubles, I recommend Samsung UE32N5000AU - saving 2,000 rubles.

Best up to 30 thousand

A key feature of TVs in this price segment is the presence of Smart TVs. At the same time, its functionality is not always extensive, and the stability of its work leaves much to be desired due to the weak hardware. However, if you are looking for a TV with innovative voice control, syncing with other Smart Devices, and more, then take a look at the following three.

LG 32LM6390

Able to please the user:

1. A high-quality picture of an IPS-matrix in Full HD resolution. Featuring HDR10 Pro, HLG, True Motion, Dynamic Color and Noise Reduction for vibrant colors and great detail in dynamic scenes.

One of the most affordable smart TVs in the premium segment. At the same time, it is good from all sides. Rare Smart TV slowdowns associated with a lack of RAM can be forgiven taking into account the cost of the model, and the Magic Remote can be purchased separately if you intend to use the smart capabilities of the TV. It will cost several thousand rubles.

Samsung UE32M5500AU

Like LG 32LM6390 it has an excellent matrix with Full HD resolution. Purcolour, Motion Rate, Contrast Enhancer, Micro Dimming Pro technologies are used to create a bright, saturated and natural picture, but the model cannot boast of HDR support. But there is a game mode - use the TV as a game monitor with a minimum delay in transferring images from a laptop. The sound is 2 times louder than the competitor - 20 watts. Dolby Digital Plus are supported. Smart TV runs on Tizen OS. Supports access to the network, including "over the air", voice control, control from a smartphone and transfer of images from its screen to the TV screen, and vice versa, via WiFi. You can also play files from your computer by sending them to the application. An interesting option is Multiroom Link - sound transmission to compatible devices over the home network to other rooms. To implement Smart TV functions, the TV is equipped with all the necessary connectors and wireless interfaces. Confident reception of any TV signal source is guaranteed by a universal built-in tuner with interference filtering technology. The price is 25,000 rubles.

pros

• Design - Slim frame in Dark Titanium.
• Improved Smart Hub - all content on 1 screen.

• Image enhancement technologies.
• Good sound.
• Smart TV.

Minuses

• Not all users like Tizen OS.
• No headphone output.
• The minimalistic remote control is not convenient for everyone.
• Smart TV sometimes slows down.
• Voice control is incomplete, functions only in the case of an active connection to the network.

A good smart TV with great pictures and innovative features. If you do not plan to use voice control and you are used to the good old remote control with a large number of buttons, then I recommend giving preference to the LG 32LM6390, you will save 3,000 rubles.

Sony KDL-32WD756

Good picture in Full HD. A frame-by-frame analysis of each image area is declared and its comparison with the reference (image processing X ‑ Reality PRO). Rich, natural colors guaranteed by Live Color technology. To improve the picture in dynamic scenes, Motionflow XR is used. Built-in tuners for analog, digital and cable TV broadcasting.Smart TV based on Linux OS supports access to the network through a built-in browser, provides access to YouTube, popular online cinemas, allows you to play any content from external media, transfer images to the screen from other devices, including via WiFi. But for wire transmission, only SCART, HDMI (2) and USB (2) connectors are provided. Sound - 2 x 5W speakers with bass reflex, good, but not better than competitors in this price range. An interesting model from the standpoint of ergonomics - a thin black frame, a steel stand with well-thought-out wiring and cable management. The price is 29 900 rubles.

pros

• Design and ergonomics.

• Inconvenient remote control.
• Demanding on the quality of the digital TV signal.
• Doesn't support some video formats.
• No smartphone control option.
• Non-standard wall mount.
• External power supply.

The most expensive TV in the rating, while being inferior to competitors in terms of the number of connectors, Smart TV functionality and some other parameters. I can only recommend it to fans of the brand. I strongly advise everyone else to save money and buy LG 32LM6390 or Samsung UE32M5500AU, depending on which OS is closer to you. If Android TV is the only option for you, pay attention to budget Xiaomi Mi TV 4A or KIVI 32H600GR. They may be marginally inferior in picture and sound quality, but substantial savings can offset these problems. But you get a model with a full-fledged android.
