Humax LGB-32TPVR review

This 32-inch LCD TV has two Freeview receivers as well as a 40GB hard drive for recording digital and anologue channels. But while the ability to record digital TV from one remote is a brilliant feature, picture quality from Freeview recordings on the LGB-32TPVR is poor, and only DVI and hi-def component inputs truly impress Read more

Toshiba 32WLT58 review

Connectivity is the biggest selling point on the 32WLT58, with a massive selection spanning standard and high definition, including a generous two HDMI inputs. Having said that, it doesn't have the most inspiring design we've seen and its Freeview picture quality certainly isn't up there with efforts from Panasonic and Philips Read more

Philips 32PF9830 review

Philips' Ambilight technology produces a calming glow from the back of the TV, which looks cool and boosts the set's perceived contrast level. And while the 32PF9830 is expensive for its size, is includes plenty of premium features, including a motorised stand, and the picture quality is wonderful. All that's missing is a Freeview tuner Read more

Rear-projection televisions

All the fuss over flat-screen TV has taken the limelight away from the humble rear-projection television. Rear-pro's physical similarity to the CRT TVs of old mean it's less attractive than its plasma and LCD contemporaries, but rear-pro is still the best way of getting a huge screen at an affordable price. The high contrast and cinematic picture quality mean that these TVs are perfect for movie lovers... Read more

Sagem HD-D45H review

Sagem's rear-projection TV is a real star performer across both standard and high-definition sources. Texas Instruments' HD2+ chipset has been replaced from the last range for the HD4 model, there are two HDMI inputs that pre-empt demand for high definition, and a Freeview tuner to meet current demand for digital television Read more

Panasonic Viera TH37PV500 review

This Viera may well be expensive, but you're buying a TV that's been crafted with loving care. The image quality is startlingly good -- anyone who had written plasma off should be pleasantly surprised by the colour and contrast depth of this brand-new panel Read more

Flat screens for Valentines

The origin of Valentine's Day has many possible explanations -- many assume that it honours St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. The real meaning of Valentine's Day has been diluted thanks to millions of red roses and heart-shaped balloons, so why not be original this year and treat that special someone to a huge flat-screen TV?

Panasonic TX26LXD52 review

The follow-up to the similarly-named TX26LXD50 has one important difference -- an HDMI input. This may not sound like enough for an update, but it means the TV can receive high-definition content when it becomes available -- and the picture's as good as ever Read more

ViewSonic N3260w review

It's fully hi-def, cheap as chips and has bags of connectivity -- but the menu system is atrocious, the VGA channel has a strange orange tint and the remote control is particularly nasty. We'd suggest a slightly more expensive option Read more
