Reviews of the Vizio VP322
-
CNET Review
The Good: Very aggressively priced; better picture uniformity than similar-size LCDs; solid standard-def performance; plenty of connectivity with three HDMI and one PC input.
The Bad: Inaccurate color; produces relatively light black levels; subpar video processing; plasma glass reflects more light than similar LCDs.
The Bottom Line: The extremely inexpensive 32-inch Vizio VP322 introduces a new size category for plasma, but its overall performance is no better, and often worse, than that of similar-size LCDs.
