What 32 ″ TVs are the best for quality and price? We have talked a lot about the best televisions you can buy in 2021, and the truth is that we still had a very important category that is in high demand due to its low price. 32 ″ televisions.
- The bad news is that we haven’t found 32-inch TVs with 4K resolution. The good news is that they don’t have to have that resolution to look good. They are small.
Let it be clear to you. In this size you should not pay more than 300 euros, and if they can be 200 euros much better. They can be televisions that do not have SmartTV, that is, they are not intelligent, but taking into account that right now you can have a Chromecast from Google or Fire TV Stick de Amazon for very little money, this is not a big problem.
You only need an HDMI output to connect these devices so that your 32 ″ TV becomes a good SmartV. The closer you get to 300 euros, the more options you have for it to be SmartTV.
There are still a lot of really cool 32-inch TVs released by manufacturers, who know there is a market for them.
Cast? In a room you are not going to put a 50 ″ television, nor are you going to do it in your vacation place in all probability. It is also a good option to use as a gaming TV: you connect it to the console in a room and it is the perfect size.

What should we look for in a 32 ″ TV?
- Screen resolution: we have to settle for HD or Full HD
- Refresh frequency: If we go to 120Hz, it improves performance for subjects that move quickly on the screen (sports or games), compared to a refresh rate of 60Hz.
- Smart TV: One of the advantages of using a small TV is that it still has all the Smart TV features of its older siblings. Smart TVs have built-in Wi-Fi technology or Ethernet ports.
- Ports: Having multiple HDMI ports is key to ensuring that all your devices can connect at the same time. It would be interesting if they had at least 2 HDMI ports.
- Laying distance: it does not have to be placed very far. In the case of 32 ″, we will have to place ourselves approximately 1 - 1.5 meters away from the TV to have an optimal view in case it has 1080p resolution
- Resolution: With such a small TV, you will hardly notice the difference between 720p and 1080p, so you can buy a 32 ″ TV with HD resolution without being afraid of seeing it wrong.
- Contrast: The more contrast the better (difference between black and white), since you are going to watch TV very closely.
