Introduction
The Samsung LN32B460 is an entry-level 32-inch HDTV. It doesn’t have any extra features, such as internet connectivity or media playback options, but it does have great picture quality. The TV runs at 720p, however, meaning its performance won’t be quite as good when displaying 1080i or 1080p content.
The LN32B460 has a listed price of $649.99, but savvy shoppers are sure to find it at a discount.

The D5500 has a rather high MSRP of $699, considering it’s only a 32-inch TV. There are some “premiums upgrades,” a term we use with some dubiousness, knowing that these features can be far less valuable than they appear. Nevertheless, at its core this is a good television. If you can find it a significantly reduced price it would make a great addition to a home theater. Read More...
