Panasonic TX-L32S20B television review

 

Panasonic has made a big boast this year that its new Viera TVs contain both Freeview HD and Freesat HD tuners - and it's the only brand to do so. The S20 line-up, however, is the only range from the Japanese giant that contains "just" a Freeview HD...

HD & SD pictures, Freeview HD, contrast

Busy remote, no MP3 or DivX

While this chubby Full HD LCD is bereft of digital age add-ons such as USB, internet TV and DLNA, Panasonic has combined a Freeview HD tuner with some stunning upscaling tech and a classy Blu-ray picture. The list price is too high, but if you can find...

This bare bones LCD TV offers super sharp HD pictures but not much else

Impressive black levels; Super sharp HD pictures; Good SD performance

Unexciting design; No media streaming or online features

Panasonic Viera TX-L37S20B

 

Does this 37in LCD TV do enough to stand out from the crowd?

We’d hoped as we started reviewing the L37S20B that it’s unexpectedly low price might make it an easier recommendation than the majority of Panasonic’s LCD output. But ultimately the set's stubborn refusal to stand out from the crowd in any way...

Panasonic Viera S20 (TX-L37S20B) review

 

The Panasonic Viera TX-L37S20B is a decent mid-range television, but we think it's a touch overpriced for the range of features on offer.

Freeview HD tuner ; Good standard-definition upscaling ; Impressively sharp high-definition pictures

Dull styling ; Adverts on the EPG ; Pricey for what you get

The Panasonic Viera TX-L37S20B largely makes up for its lack of frills by turning in superb performance in the picture department. Its standard-definition upscaling abilities are impressive and it's also a bonus having an on-board HD tuner. At the end...

It's good to see a 32in Panasonic LCD TV available at a competitive price, but is it worth the cash?

It's good to see a Panasonic LCD TV being sold at a genuinely competitive price - and the L32S20B does enough things sufficiently well to represent decent value for money at the sub-£500 level.

Panasonic Viera S20 (TX-L32S20B) review

 

The Panasonic Viera TX-L32S20B offers good picture performance, and, with the World Cup just around the corner, the Freeview HD tuner will appeal to football fans. The rest of the feature set is rather basic given the set's high price tag, though

Integrated Freeview HD tuner ; Comfortable remote control ; Good standard- and high-definition performance ; Impressive black levels

No support for media streaming or online services ; Pricey for what you get

Conclusion The Panasonic Viera TX-L32S20B is a good mid-range TV, and its Freeview HD tuner will be a big attraction for football fans now that the World Cup is almost upon us. It's expensive for the range of features on offer, though, and, if you can...
