Sorry if asked before but need recommendation. Have shopped around a ton but narrowed it down to these two. It's just a small LCD, 32" for upstairs .. between Sharp Aquous 450M (LC-32L450M) and Philips 3000 Series (32PFL3605S/98). Both RM1,099 at ESH, Giant.

Sharp LC-32L450M
x Not Full HD (Resolution: 1,366 x 768)
Audio Output Power: 10W x 2
HDMI x 3
USB plays movies, music and pictures

Philips 32PFL3605S/98
Full HD (Resolution: 1920x1080p)
x Audio Output power (RMS): 8W x 2
x HDMI x 2
x USB plays only music and pictures


I like the picture on the Sharp and the speakers seem to sound better, as am not going to get a HTS or ext speaker for this. The Philips looks sleeker and it's full HD for the same price. From research on these threads maybe full HD is not all that important on 32".

Would appreciate any input. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice. But already got the Philips this evening, Sanyo no stock except white color. It's good so far except for the remote. By the way ESH still has great service. Even though I'm not buying monster TV the salesman was very nice and helpful.
