Hello,

I am thinking about getting a LCD telly.

Which one should I get Sony KDL-32S3000 or Samsung LE32R87BD?

I know Sony and Samsung have joined forces with their LCD tellys.

Which brand is most reliable, I think Sony personally but I am wondering what other people think.

I know both tellys have near the same specification or the same specification?

Which one should I get?

Thanks,
Stephen.

I would suggest Sony are better, certainly have MUCH better sound than the Samsungs, and generally a better picture - but they are more expensive.

Sony and Samsung haven't 'joined forces' as such, but they have a joint venture called 'S-LCD' making high quality LCD panels - most Sony's use these panels, but many Samsungs (and the bottom of the range U series Sony's) use the lower spec Samsung branded panels.

Both of them are inferior compared to a Panasonic TX32LMD70, which is what I would buy.

The Samsung certainly looks nicer than the Sony in the living room, but I'd avoid Sony and Samsung and go for the Panasonic.

Hi

I just had the Sony KDL-S3000U 32" delivered from Amazon for £479. I was a bit nervous on which 32" to buy but i am really pleased with it, picture is great in SD (although you may have to play with the settings till u get your best pic), and the Xbox 360 looks amazing.

I went with this TV and receiving feedback from someone else on DS who actually has the set, I would definantely recommend the set on my first impression and you get a three year warranty from Amazon to boot.

Seems best to go with your gut feeling on a TV, cause if you look round the forums you find a wide range of opinions and pros and cons of all sets. I must admit i liked the Panasonic set, but is over £100 more, so depends on your budget.
