Panasonic TC-L32E3 REVIEW & BEST PRICE: 2011

Panasonic TC-L32E3 Wonderful Picture, Exactly What I Hoped For and Expected!
I researched all the flatscreen TVs in the 37-40" size category due to cabinet space requirements. Bought a Sony 40" and had to return it because my wife wouldn't let me take the doors of the furniture... Looked at Vizio due to price, performance, cabinet size, and having owned one. Did not find a model that met all the criteria. Found the outgoing Panasonic 37" model that came before this new model but it was getting hard to find at the firesale prices. I saw that the new TC-L37E3 was being release soon and put it in my basket and waited for release.

I liked that it had an ISP (In-Plane Switching panel) and the reviews of the previous model were favorable. The cabinet width was perfect at 35.1 inches. The fact that it was wi-fi ready did not matter to me since I already had an Apple Airport Express for the entertainment system and could feed a CAT5 cable directly to the TV. Have watched Netflix, Amazon VOD, listened to Pandora, all works great. The picture colors, sharpness, contrast, blacks, and viewing angle are fantastic and my wife and college age daughters have given positive comments. I only had to tweak a couple settings to get it matched to the room lighting with windows/blinds to the rear. Since it was a new model the first week out in release, my Logitech Harmony One remote did not have the canned codes available. A little training and the fact that the channels and volume are usually changed through the Cable/DVR and the A/V receiver result in no impact. I also like the optical digital out for playing internet music out to the stereo.

I am getting used the the small delays in the HDMI handshaking going on between the Motorola DVR, NAD T747 Receiver, and the TC-L37E3. Bottom line is that now that they are all hooked and set-up, they are working fine together.

Very Happy with the purchase!

Panasonic TC-L32E3 Great Picture Quality
First off, I am not a videophile, just someone who likes to watch TV and movies.
I have a pioneer in the living room and I compare everything to it. This Panasonic holds its own.
When I'm over someones house and watching their TV, I find that I'm ofter thinking of the poor picture quality instead of the program or movie content.
With this TV, I never think about the quality. That's a wonderful thing.

Panasonic TC-L32E3 LIKE IT.
I received this about a week ago. It was given to me by the company I work for, for an anniversary present. Since I'm not much of an gadget person anymore, I didn't really care what it was, it was free after all.
It has been working great. Setup took about 20 minutes, and I was impressed that with the high quality workmanship. All tv's I've seen in the past have been made of plastic, this one was a real surprise.
Since I haven't had cable for 14 years, saving me thousands of dollars, I can't comment on that kind of reception. However, since this tv has a decoder in it, it found 23 free channels, and it did it with the antenna resting on the carpet, rabbit ears to us older folks.
The picture is crystal clear.
Would be happier with larger, louder speakers. My old home theater system does not allow for the new and improved I'm told HDMI hookups.
So, now I have the opportunity to spend thousands more for updated AV components, which I have no intention of doing. So, I'll never be able to use all the functions this tv has, but as a tv, it's the best one I've ever owned.
To use my old Pioneer AV equipment, I must go through the existing setup, and use the signal from the settop digital box the government GAVE me for $50. All because of a single cable which is not compatible with OLD audio equipment that still works great. Not a big issue, but one that makes the decoder in the tv a big waste of resources.
The pc hookup is also of no use to me. It found my laptop, but didn't know what to do with it. The SD card thingy is cute, tried it out just to see if it worked, it did.
The only thing that would hook directly to this tv, is my DVD player. The rest had to use the ganged up method, and ran through the coaxial cable. But, they all still work.
A nice tv, nice picture, nice sound even if low, pretty to look at, high quality workmanship, and free.
Can't ask for more.
Sorry if my review seems lackluster. It's just that for us old stoneage 50 year olds, it takes an awful lot to impress us, and be cheap too.
I do recommend this tv.

Panasonic VIERA TC-L32E3 VERY GOOD.
I have been looking for a 37" TV to fit into a particular piece of furniture for over 2 years. Everything has been too tall by 1/2" or more. This is a newly announced TV that is packaged perfectly. It has great features and a great picture. If you are hooking it up to a wired internet connection and are using a hub in addition to the router, you cannot connect the TV to a hub port. It has to be on one of the router ports. It took a long time with Panasonic support to figure this out. That said, the support line was great and appeared to be US based.

My only real negative was that Amazon did not ship the set when they said they would. It was in stock but my order got screwed up twice.

Panasonic VIERA TC-L32E3 Excellent LED LCD television.
I purchased this television for our bedroom, and we're quite happy with it. I highly recommend using a calibration DVD (I used Avia) to set the picture settings, as the ones from the factory are indeed crap! (like almost all modern TVs. Why is that?) The "standard" setting is way too low contrast / washed out, and the "vivid" setting has contrast so high that the shadow details are completely lost. I found that the "Game" setting tuned to [Contrast +90] [Brightness +57] and [Color +40] was about perfect, now that I have it calibrated the picture is even better than I anticipated.

Pros:
Incredible picture!
Embedded Pandora & Netflix players work fine
Lots of HDMI inputs
It's SO LIGHT AND THIN!

So/so:
Sound - decent but not stellar. About what you'd expect from embedded speakers

Cons:
No embedded WiFi (works with external adapter, purchased separately)

Panasonic TC-L32E3 Best Price, VERY GOOD LED HDTV.
The Panasonic HD TVs receive very good reviews both here on Amazon and on other sites. I am not going to go into all the details that are already in the other reviews since I don't find redundancy useful. I purchased this model after viewing the 32 $ 37 inch versions in local stores. I couldn't find the 42 inch model locally so I ordered from Amazon at what I consider a fair price along with the free return policy. The set is performing flawlessly after a month and a half. Both my wife and I are very happy with the picture and over all performance. We added a Blu Ray player and 1080p discs look excellent. I don't have a negative thing to report at this time. I haven't upgraded to a home theater system yet so I can't comment either way on external audio system compatibility.

Panasonic TC-L32E3 Best Price, PERFECT!
The HDTV arrived in a double carton with enough popcorn filler to protect the inner carton from even the smallest dent. Needless to say, I've got enough filler for any packages I might send out for Christmas.

As far as the TV it worked perfect with a great picture and easy setup.

Panasonic TC-L32E3 Best Buy, GOOD TV.
I meant to purchase an LCD TV that has 120Hz scanning ratio, with an LED back lighting. For some obscure reason I thought that, the L42E3 has it! :( . Since the TV was meant for my bedroom, and until I uncrated it, I did not realize that I was wrong, I decided to to give the TV a try. To my surprise, the picture was much better than I expected, even with fast moving objects on the screen. While one can see some blur in the fast moving objects, they are much less noticeable, than in my older LCD (4 years old) that I replaced. In a slow moving or static screens, the picture rivals my LG with 120Hz scanning, that is in my living room, and it has better black level retention than the LG. I would have given the set 5*, but for the lack of 120Hz scanning ability. Recommended.
