So nice of you.. :)
 
Firstly, only the Samsung model is Full HD, as against HD Ready, ie, the resolution is 1366x768 for Sony & LG Models, and it is 1920x1080 for the Samsung model. So if ur priority is Full HD (which many times is) then ur decision shud be taken by now. But still, if that is not the priority, then read on:1) "Digital Audio Output" which i guess is the S/PDIF Out, is not there in LG. It is there in Sony, but is placed on the rear. For Samsung, it is on the side. Now S/PDIF is the port which gives u multi-channel audio, when u want to connect a 4.1/5.1/7.1/whatever speaker set to ur TV.2) Sony supports DLNA. DLNA provides the ability of connecting network drives to the TV via Wi-Fi. So if u have a PC/Laptop/other device which has Wifi, u can watch the video or listen to audio contained in it, on the TV, WITHOUT ANY WIRES.3) Also, Sony model appears to be a "Smart TV". It has Internet capabilities, and has a Keyboard as well. But i dont have any idea as to how these things work, so wont comment on it.

Thanks for the info, I m planning to go for LED HD Ready..

1. Will there be noticeable difference in the resolution for 32" tv..?
2. Sony 32Ex420 is HD Ready..? Because there is no such info in their website.. I read HD ready LED is more than enuf and we can find any difference between full hd vs hd ready in LED 32"

I am planning to buy Tata Sky HD, will the above sony model is ok for it..? Please Clarify..

Frankly speaking i havent experienced it, so i wont comment whether HD Ready or Full HD make difference in 32" TV or not.

But logically speaking i think u should get sharper picture in Full HD obviously with the availability of more pixels. And pls clarify who told u that there isnt any difference. If any vendor has told, then that clearly implies that THERE IS SOME NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE, & that fellow wants to sell u a product which is generally not preferred by an informed consumer.

But still, the best way to judge is see both models side by side, WITH HD CONTENT PLAYING.

Remember 2 things that u compare the TVs -

1) Comparing with HD content, which matters in the end. So if the vendor shows u regular TV, then ask him to switch to some HD content.
2) Further, the content should be TRUE HD, as against upscaled HD. If possible u can carry ur own True HD content for testing.

Now coming to Sony Model, they are misleading the customers openly. Coz the resolution mentioned in the list is 1366x768. Now this is "HD Ready" resolution. The LG people are honest enough then, that they openly mention the fact.

Now u said that u want to buy TS HD. That means u have lots of True HD stuff on cards. A Full HD resolution is surely better than an HD Ready for that.

Bottomline: Compare HD Ready with FUll HD, using True HD Content.
