32" for TV & gaming

[Craig321]

I'm after a 32" for my bedroom for TV and gaming.

I love the look of, and the features on the Panasonic TX-L32E6B (all the SmartTV stuff, the nice small bezel etc.) but have heard it can be bad with ghosting and the bad viewing angles on the MVA panel put me off.

Has anyone got one? What are they like for gaming? And what are the viewing angles actually like (vertical and horizontal)? The writeup claims 178 but a few review sites claim they're not great due to the MVA panel.

I'm used to IPS panels so if it's any worse in terms of viewing angles and colour then I think I'll be a bit disappointed.

Also, is it glossy or matte panel?

Thanks.

You should try and find out the input lag values on this tv before pulling the trigger. Some LEDs suffer from horrible input lag that don't make them well suited to gaming.

//edit

Here's a review of the 42" version which will likely have the same specs input lag wise:

It comes in at 34ms which is pretty standard for LED and not that great. Around 30ms seems to be the cut off point for most people so you may want to try before you buy.
