I tested two 32-inch TVs side-by-side, and you can get a budget bargain if you know where to look

When you find yourself looking for a new TV, it can be quite daunting when starting the search. There’s a lot of similarly priced sets with similar specs that all promise the same things as their rivals, but better.

It’s fair to say that when you’re looking at the best TVs, the more money you’re spending, the more research you’re likely to do. If you’re looking at two of the best OLED TVs – say the LG G4 and Samsung S95D – both of which cost over $2,000/£2,000 for the 65-inch model, you’re going to really take your time (as you should). When it comes to cheaper TVs, especially smaller ones, it's common for people to opt for whatever fits the budget and looks the best on paper. Sometimes this goes well, but I’ve found this often isn't the case.
