Review By tech.uk

The 32XL8E is a tidy little beast, featuring Sharp’s new-look thin bezel, which means you can cram it into an even smaller space, which makes it ideal for bedrooms and studies. It also, somehow, manages to support 100Hz, which means more stability and less flickering on movies. Especially important for Blu-ray lovers.

This little Sharp is a stylish beast — well, beast is the wrong word, because it’s actually very elegant. We’re pleased by this, because the tendency with smaller televisions is to produce quite generic-looking grey or black boxes. At least this Sharp stays true to the rest of the TVs the company produces.

The TV is largely black, and of course it’s an ultra-reflective gloss, rather than a matte black, which is still the de-facto style for flat-panel TVs. Beneath the screen is the trademark Sharp ‘wave’ of silver, which separates the screen from the speakers. The bezel is also quite thin, making the TV look compact and appealing to people who don’t want the focus of their room to be a great big slab of black plastic.

This TV’s screen is only 32in across, yet its makers have seen fit to cram into it a ‘Full HD’ pixel count of 1,920 x 1,080. Not because it wants to show off, but simply because that’s what many Great British punters actually want these days.

In other words, even on a screen so small that you might not be able to make out the HD advantage, resolution is king. People already associate resolution with definition, and higher definitions with better picture quality. And if the idea of high definition is already that ingrained in people, then we’re sorry HD sceptics, but HD is not only here to stay, it’s surely well on its way to becoming the de facto AV standard. Anyhoo, I’ve kind of strayed off the subject already, so let’s get right back to business by discussing the face the 32XL8E presents to the world.

Review By hdtvlounge

Connectivity on the Sharp LC-32XL8E is good with three HDMI 1.3 inputs, 2x scart, PC VGA input, and component. TrustedReviews took a look at the LC-32XL8E and said, brightness levels are well-judged, so that images look bright but not so aggressive that the picture looks forced. Also, video noise during HD viewing is at a minimum. Overall the 32XL8E can produce some really excellent pictures, and it sounds good too.

Review By techradar

While hidden from view, the LC-37B20E’s speakers do a reasonable job. The SRS TruSurroundXT module does push background music to the side of the mix and makes speech feel slightly divorced from the onscreen action.

Although it lacks close-up detail, this is a serious 1080p TV offering a polished performance. Few LCDs at this size and price offer such pristine pictures.

Black levels and lack of picture noise in particular lift this cleverly designed screen above most of its 1080p peers.
