| Introduction |
| Editorial Note: This is a review of the Proscan 32LC30S60. Test results are for this model, but should indicate the general performance of other sizes in the xxLC30S60 series. The xxLC30S60 series includes the following models: 32LC30S60 and 37LC30S60. Read here for more details on series differences. |
 The Proscan 32LC30S60 is a budget television, with all the expected trade-offs standing in between you and the alluring price tag. This 720p LCD model has mediocre performance, at best, and is skimpy on ports. But at approx. $379, it might suffice for the bedroom, guest room, or for the kids (assuming your kids aren't TV reviewers). |
