ConclusionVs Vizio VW32L
Value Comparison
The Vizio doesn’t look as good as the LG, doesn’t have the same level of picture quality as the LG, and can’t play back photos via USB like the LG. It does cost a bit less, however, so if you’re really strapped for cash, it’s worth considering. Otherwise, the LG is almost strictly better.

Blacks & Whites
The Vizio’s black level was really, really bright, leading to a horrible contrast ratio. The LG easily wins this category.

The LG didn’t have any problems with its color temperature, but the Vizio had a slightly more accurate color representation.
