    Hi people

    I have been looking to get a 32" HDTV for a few days but am completely confused at this point after looking at so many.

    I will be putting a ps3 on it which is the main reason for using it as well as digital TV.

    Does anyone have any ideas which are best between

    Sony Bravia 32" KDL32S3020U
    Sony Bravia 32" KDL32U3000U
    Sony Bravia 32" KDL32P3020U

    or any other TV's ?

    I also looked at Samsung but have seen alot of people say the Sony is a better option

    Thanks in Advance !!!

    I had the same questions as you about the tv's. Why can't anyone make one tv of one size instead of having 3 tv's that do a tiny thing differently.

    It's really hard to recommend one over the other, they all seem to be about the same except for very minor diffrences.
    The only real diffrence between them seems to be the contrast ratio(32p3020u and 32u3000) seem to have the highest contrast ratio, but only slightly.

    You could look into some sharp LCDs, they make good one's also.

    Good Luck

    Yeah its really difficult to know what to get.

    I dont want to end up getting a TV that isnt as good as one that is out for the same price etc.

    The other thing I have found hard to find is a good website that compares all the spec so that you can easily see what is better

    does anyone know of any good sites I can use? Then I can make my mind up and go check one out in the shops !

    check out bestbuy, the guys there dont make money of their sales so unlike other stories they are more inclined to help you find the product you need rather than show you the biggest TV and tell you to buy it:)

    Agrees...

    Or, what I would do, is wait for the new Mitsubishi LaserVue tv to drop. Not sure on pricing yet, should be fairly reasonable since they are cheaper to manufacture then most LCDs and Plasmas. They won't be making a 32" model though. But just imagine playing your PS3 on a 65" big screen with life like images coming out at you! Ahh, I'm drooling on my laptop as we speak.

    Samsung not any good? Ba humbug, Samsung makes killer LCDs!

    I just went blind, thanks goodswipe now I have to use a brail keyboard.
    Sorry matricide, were just having some fun.

    As tripplite said, probaly the best thing to do is go to your local electronics retailer and see what looks best to you.

    Just rember, retailers don't tune the tv's very well, if at all.
