Just seen this on TV, looks a great deal for a moderately spec'd TV.
Yeah, it's not really JVC, but for the price, what's it matter? Looks very UMC to me.
For a TV capable of meeting your everyday needs, consider the JVC LT-32C360 32" LED TV.
HD Ready
The 32" screen offers a 1366 x 768 HD resolution for enjoyable visual quality. With a clear LED screen providing a brighter display and good contrast levels, you can watch your favourite TV shows and films without straining your eyes.
To enhance the audio, the LT-32C360 also features DTS Trusurround to ensure your ears are as entertained as your eyes.
Freeview
Featuring a built in Freeview tuner, the 32C360 offers you full access to over 60 digital channels and over 25 radio stations, enhancing your entertainment options and offering you the opportunity to discover new shows.
Connections
With plenty of connection options available, the C360 is a versatile addition to your entertainment setup. It boasts three HDMI connections (one of which is ARC compatible) as well as SCART and SVGA inputs to allow you to connect the TV to a PC or laptop.
There is also a USB 2.0 port, offering you the opportunity to record and playback live TV using a USB storage device (sold separately).
Capable of being wall mounted (kit sold separately) and offering quality entertainment options, the JVC LT-32C360 32" LED TV is an ideal choice for those seeking simple entertainment.

FFS it's a 32inch tv for 120 quid.
Perfect for those who watch TV instead of those who complain about black levels.

What a silly comment, technology improves over time just as people don't know the term "HD" is a marketing gimmick, you had "HD" monitors in the 90s even in the 80s pcs were sold as "high definintion" as the term changes over time.
I still see people use things like dvds or even the ones that do use HD its 720p like NOWtv, Sky people just assume something connected to a hdtv is automatically HD.
People are basically sheep, I got a HD tv in 2005 and everyone was telling me its not worth it to upgrade as they can't see a difference in fact most people I saw were using composite rather than rgb scart and theres even a few people do that nowadays with hdtvs.
Nowadays people complain that their phone is isnt 1080p
You sound like the generic consumer i.e a sheep who believes everything they are told about the latest tech making anything else useless.
Still rocking my 50 year old speakers here that make any sound bar I hear sound awful, using my crt for a main tv as everything looks great on it and it has built in 5.1 that is so good even at very low volume my neighbours hear it.

Kind of new to TVs. Doesn't the aerial pick up digital signal which is HD and fees it to TV?

Yes, I'm quite sure.
It does pick up a digital signal, AKA Freeview. Not Freeview HD.

on a 720p you get the very best SD picture better than watching SD on a 1080p tv and also considering the size it is like watching HD freeview. A different matter when you will try to watch bluray discs but still very good compared to larger screens, even dvd should look better

TheBlueWhale

Fair point but it uses the HD tuner as a method of enabling IPTV channels via internet. The channels are not free via Sky & BT, Many people cannot use a dish for Freesat. A BT box does have the additional channels but why clutter up the place with an extra box
Link to the £5 youview boxes, I've just looked and most are selling for £30+ with faulty ones selling for £10+

You can buy a YouView box for a fiver on eBay, which has better smart functions than most lower-end 'smart' televisions and can be replaced when the technology evolves.
But whatever, it's horses for courses.

For what you'd pay for a cheap freeview tuner and a HDMI cable, you could just as easily spend another £30 and get this instead
Errrrrrrmmmmmmm you can, mainly due to the higher bitrate tbf but yes you can and i haven't got the greatest eye sight. How do i know - how about a 27" 1080p monitor and 32" goodmans 1366x768 tv next to it with being fed a 1080p material ..

UMC are more reliable than Vestel by the way. Vestels have very poor power supplies which can take out the LED backlights over time in a lot of cases -- UMC just use generic Chinese supplies which, apart from capacitors will last the set out.

It's a reasonable deal.
With a 32" you won't tell the difference between 1080p and 720p anyway.
Even if it did have Freeview HD don't forget that the list of HD channels is still very few.
Pop a cheap Android TV box in this too and you have the ability to get and play HD content anyway through Kodi addons such as iPlayer.
3 x HDMi ports is also good for multiple device connectivity.
What do you want for £120?

But how many people buying it for their main TV set?
This would be a good TV for my bedroom, actually its a bit big, I need a 26". Pretty sure 1080 and 4k are wasted on a 32 from my viewing distance. That and the coax that feeds it is SD...
My only concern, does it have an analogue tuner for my RF sky signal :smiley::smiley:

The tuner is not a high definition tuner therefore it is not capable of receiving the full Freeview service. it may be cheap but it is also obsolete and within a few years will need a set top to get the full range of channels.
