The Viera TX-L32E3B sits at the bottom of Panasonic's range of LED TVs. Apart from its LED backlight, it doesn't offer all that much in the way of features, lacking the 200Hz processing found on the step-up E30 range, as well as Internet capability. Priced at around £450, this 32-inch, 1080p set is fairly cheap by LED standards, but does it represent a good option for bargain hunters? If there's one area in which Panasonic has been consistently weak, it's design. Previous models have looked functional at best, and downright boring at worst. But Panasonic's made more of an effort with its 2011 line-up. The TX-L32E3B isn't exactly a stunner, but its slim chassis and clean, angular lines means it looks distinctive and sharply tailored. As this is an entry-level TV, the line-up of ports is slightly less impressive than that of Panasonic's higher-end sets. For example, you only get three HDMI ports, rather than the four that are now pretty much standard on pricier 32-inch tellies. Nevertheless, there are VGA, component and Scart inputs, so, unless you've got masses of gear, this shouldn't be too much of a problem.Sadly, this model lacks networking support.
The Panasonic TX-L32E3B is driven by price, rather than features or technology. In order to keep the cost down this entry-level 32-inch set eschews niceties such as 3D playback or Panasonic's Viera Connect online system, but has managed to hang onto edge LED backlighting and sports an IPS Alpha panel. If advanced web capability is your bag you should investigate Panasonic's TX-L32E30B, or its 37-inch and 42-inch siblings, while for three-dimensional fun you'll have to make a considerable jump in price to the TX-L32DT30B, or its 37-inch stablemate, the TX-L37DT30. There are precious few interesting tricks and tools on the TX-L32E3B. When it comes to setting up pictures, for instance, it initially looks like there isn't anything going on beyond the absolute basic colour, contrast, brightness and sharpness settings. There is a sensor to detect light levels in the room and adjust the picture settings accordingly (labeled as 'C.A.T.S'), but eco-friendly features like this are found on most decent TVs now.
