I call the WinBook 32MO the LCD TV for the masses. This is because it’s low price makes it affordable.

The company WinBook Computer Corp is known for selling value notebooks. Now it has included LCD TVs in it’s offerings.

Following it’s standard of offering high quality, value priced products comes the WinBook 32MO. This is a 32-inch HD ready LCD TV which cost $799.99.

PC Magazine did a review of the Winbook LCD TV by putting it to a series of test, notably the image test using DVD movies playbacks and other high definition sources.

Here are the results :-

• The unit have trouble managing video noise for some DVDs. However with game consoles, PCs, and other high-definition sources, video noise is less of an issue, and the 32M0’s resulting image quality was crisp and detailed.
• The 32M0 is a bright display by default. There is no presets for day and night viewing environments or an adjustable backlight setting. This is good for viewing in a bright room but far too bright for viewing in a dim environment. That’s quite straining for the eyes.
• Good color reproduction and satisfactory connection options. The connection available inculdes two digital video inputs. This is rare for an inexpensive TVs.

The Bottom Line according to the review is :-

The WinBook 32M0 is one of the best values around for a 32-inch LCD TV that provides HD resolution and two digital video inputs—rare for inexpensive TVs. Unfortunately, its otherwise decent picture quality is marred by ineffective noise reduction for some DVDs.

At the end, PC Magazine verdict is 3 out of 5. That’s a GOOD rating. Finally just wondering what’s the MO stands for?

WinBook 32M0 review by PC Magazine

Everybody appreciates a bargain, and the WinBook 32M0 ($799.99 direct) ranks among the least expensive 32-inch LCD TVs that I’ve tested to date. The 32M0 offers high-definition resolution, good color quality, and a decent selection of A/V inputs. The catch? Its bright picture isn’t easily tamed for viewing in light-controlled environments, and DVD movies that have lots of film grain appear too noisy. Otherwise, the 32M0 is a solid choice for gamers, HD enthusiasts, or anyone who doesn’t spend a lot of time watching “old” movies.
