Originally Reviewed on May 24th, 2009Panasonic TC-L32X1 Review: 32” LCD HDTV
Up for review: Panasonic TC-L32X1 32 inch LCD TV. The new Panasonic TC-L32X1 is a cool new option for bedrooms, offices and kitchens because it integrates other audio video devices like your iPod to be a complete home entertainment syustem.
The VIERA Image Viewer in the Panasonic TC-L32X1 allows you to view the photos that you have taken with family and friends. You can just affix the memory card from the digital camera and put it in the SD card slot. The photos will be all your to see and share. This feature is common to all the Panasonic models released this year.
The VIERA Link gives you the opportunity to get rid of all the cumbersome remotes. You need just one remote to control all the devices connected through HDMI. There are 3 HDMI inputs and you can connect any 3 compatible devices to it. The menus on the screen are also easy enough to follow and will navigate through the available options.

A review of the picture quality shows that the Panasonic TC-L32X1 has a resolution of 720p which might seem a bit below standard but it is good enough for most people and this size of screen. Unless you have a Blu-ray player or HD gaming device, there is no point in purchasing an HDTV with 1080p resolution. 720p is sufficient to let you enjoy all the TV programs.
Connectivity is quite good in the Panasonic TC-L32X1. It has 3 HDMI inputs together with a host of other inputs. It has 2 composite video inputs and 1 component video input. It also has 2 audio inputs for video. There is also a game mode for the interested audience.
The audio is also up to the mark. It has 2 speakers with an audio output of 20W. It also has a Intelligent Scene Controller with a contrast ratio of 12,000:1. Overall, the Panasonic TC-L32X1 is an interesting option for those looking for a medium quality HDTV. We’d recommend this one as a secondary TV for most people or a primary HDTV if you’re not too picky.
HDTVUniverse.com gives Panasonic TC-L32X1 8/10 stars!
