The 32-inch model we tested offers some amazing wide viewing angles and harbors conveniently placed I/O ports. You bởi vì only get two HDMI ports, one USB port và its 60Hz panel produces a bit of motion lag, but despite its flaws, it’s our Editors’ Choice for budget HDTVs.

Design

Though not very flashy, visually, the Sony KDL32R300C still is a nice-looking HDTV. In fact, good looking than a 32-inch monitor with HDMI ports. Its bezel is flat và blaông xã, only punctuated by a Sony hình ảnh và a power light. Measuring 3 inches at its thickest point, this set isn’t exactly svelte. It sits on a rectangular plastic base that keeps the screen relatively low & very stable, but doesn’t allow for any pivoting adjustment.

A few basic control buttons are tucked behind the right edge of the screen, while an HDXiaoMi MI port and a USB port sit opposite behind the left side of the screen. An additional HDXiaoMI port, along with component và composite hybrid Clip inputs, a mini-audio jaông chồng output, a digital audio output, and a coaxial connector for cable or antenmãng cầu can be found on the bachồng of the screen. They’re well placed if you want khổng lồ mount the mix on a wall.

Its remote is small, flat, and simple. The buttons aren’t backlit, & are clustered together fairly closely, so entering numbers blindly takes some practice. On the other hvà, the direction pad và Volume and Channel buttons are large & distinct enough lớn find easily with your thumb.

As a 32-inch LED-backlit screen, the Sony KDL32R300C is a somewhat very modest energy user, but blame on the FHD eye candy. It consumes 57 watts under normal use with power saving features turned off, & 33 watts with power saving mix to low. Higher power saving features made the screen too dark lớn watch comfortably. The same-size VIZIO E320i-B2 hits the middle ground between the two settings by consuming 35 watts, và the larger TCL 40-inch LE40FHDE3000 uses 50 watts.

Performance

The Sony KDL32R300C uses a 60Hz panel, unlike some other budget sets including the Sigmac NE32AB1, which uses 120Hz panel công nghệ. In my tests, the KDL32R300C produces a respectable picture, albeit one that doesn’t really excite in terms of brightness, blaông xã levels or color. After basic calibration with power saving features disabled, the TV produced a peak brightness of 194.69 cd/m2 & corresponding black cấp độ of 0.1 cd/ m2 matched with an underwhelming contrast ratio 1,926:1.

As far as color accuracy, greens lean more towards xanh than they should, and reds appear darker than igiảm giá khuyến mãi for a 32-inch LED HDTV. To compare, this is slightly below the 40-inch TCL LE40FHDE3010 that boasts a higher contrast ration and even better blaông chồng màn chơi at 4,821:1 & 0.06 cd/mét vuông respectively, while the VIZIO E320i-B2, delivers peak brightness of 303.81 cd/m2, but has a black level of 0.14 cd/m2. Color skewing is worse on the TCL mix, however.

This is only a 720p screen, so you’re not getting full 1080p HD resolution, but for its small kích thước and price that’s not a major flaw. Blachồng Swan on Blu-ray looked a bit faded and cloudy, with the deep and textured darks not showing clearly on the screen. In Piranha on Blu-ray, the very sunny buổi tiệc nhỏ scenes looked blown out, and the greens of plants and blue-green of the water looked under-saturated.

Nothing is skewed horribly lớn the point of yellow or green skin, but the colors don’t have sầu any sense of “pop,” và the mediocre contrast ratio makes both shadows và highlights feel flat. Viewing angles are excellent, though, with the picture becoming only slightly pale when viewed from the far sides, matching Sony’s clalặng of a 178-degree range.

The Bottom Line

With the Sony KDL32R300C, you get a 32-inch HDTV that uses energy-efficient LED backlighting and delivers a bright, well-balanced picture. In order lớn keep the price affordable, Sony had khổng lồ skimp on some features, which explains the limited port availability, Web apps, 3D features or any other functions that would make it usable without plugging in a cable, antenna, or Blu-ray player.

Still the price is worth considering if you’re looking for a smaller screen for a guest bedroom, office, or kitchen, and are on a strict budget and for that it gets our nod as our newest Editors’ Choice for budget HDTVs. That said, if you’re looking for a capable, yet affordable small-screen phối without all the perks that come with pricier sets, the Sony KDL32R300C should be at the top of your các mục if you’re buying on a strict budget.
