Hi,
I am looking for advice in purchasing an LCD TV. Here is a few points.
1. I know I want a 81cm-82cm or 32 inch LCD/LED TV. I've made my mind up on that. I have no want for a larger one.
2. I was told in a shop that TV manufacturers interchange the terms LCD and LED in TV specs. I know what LED and LCD is. But why would the store person say this. Is there any difference when the manufacturers say LCD or LED on the boxes on the TVs.
3. I've heard many people on this forum find Samsung customer service a nightmare. And because of this I will not choose that brand.
4. I would like a 1080p TV. That is HD yes. But if the resolution is slightly off HD I think that's a bad thing. Is that a bad idea to get. Will it distort the image much? Or should I stick with exactly 1920 X 1080 which is 1880p?
5. And what Hz should I be looking for. I have it written down somewhere. But does it matter if this is off. Like I always thought you want 60hz or a multiple like 120 hz etc. Is something like 50hz bad? I think 50hz TVs are a not a good idea but I'm sure one of you will point me in the right direction.
6. A lot of the TVs are only 1366 x 768. Not full 1080p. I want to steer clear of tvs with this less than HD resolution. That's the right thing to do yes?
7. Here is a few of the TVs I have looked and what is your all opinion on them?

Sony BRAVIA 32" Full HD LED LCD TV - Led, Lcd, 3D, Plasma TV - JB Hi-Fi - Smashing Prices!

Replace the **** with "d ick". Yes that's his name. Australians will be familiar with him. Just silly forum censorship
8. What are your opinions on the matter? What TV would be the best one for me to get. Cause to me I know TV specs but I know nothing about what brand is better then any other. And if you want to suggest a 32 inch tv that is not on the list by all means do so.
Thanks.
