Vs Samsung LN32C350Vs Sony KDL 32EX700
Value Comparison
This is a budget battle. The LG costs about half what the Sony does, but doesn’t offer the picture quality or feature set. If you don’t mind missing out on online content and aren’t a stickler for picture quality, the LG is probably the better choice for you. If you want a nicer 32-inch option, the Sony is the right pick.
