It's got all the streaming Internet features of the best Sony TVs

No 3D, no dynamic LED backlighting, Wi-Fi is optional

We think the Sony BRAVIA EX520 will be a popular cheap LED TV. It doesn't have any superfluous 3D features or built-in Wi-Fi, so for anyone just looking for a simple Sony TV it'll hopefully be a good choice. We are impressed by the inclusion of Sony...

Decent value ; Excellent online services ; Mostly good picture quality

Motion blur ; Best picture settings lack brightness ; Operating system needs work

We should add that Sony’s online features also include Facebook, Twitter, Skype (if you add an optional camera), and an open Web browser. Though the text on this browser is so small that it makes the feature all but unusable in our opinion.

Good value ; Class-leading online service ; Good all-round picture quality

Operating system not great ; Minor motion blur ; Not the brightest picture

Minor motion blur and a slight lack of brightness once it’s been set up to produce its best contrast performance stop the 32EX524 from being a total star. But it’s certainly worth adding to any affordable 32in audition list, especially if you're...

Good price ; Mostly excellent 'smart TV' features ; Superb black levels for an edge LED TV

Resolution loss with motion ; Images aren't especially bright by edge LED standards ; The set's build quality isn't the best

Not so long ago, 37-inch TVs were the most popular size in Britain. In 2011, though, they seem to be a dying breed, with fewer and fewer models finding their way into TV ranges. Sony, for instance, only has two 37-inch TVs in its latest range,...

Internet TV and Qriocity service ; natural colours ; clean images ; excellent HD tuner

No 3D ; motion could be better ; off-axis viewing isn’t perfect

Solid performance at a decent price – but you don’t have to look far to get more

Intuitive interface ; plenty of features ; Qriocity library is ace ; subtle, detailed pictures

Struggles to deliver punchy colours ; dark scenes are too gloomy

Good but not great, this Sony’s picture lacks sparkle compared with the best

Lots of features ; Revamped onscreen menus ; Freeview HD ; Excellent web video quality ; USB recording ; Skype and smartphone control

Motion blur ; Pricey peripherals ; Contrast could be better ; Slightly plasticky build ; Couldn't stream music

Sony's KDL-32EX524 is described as a 'great all-rounder' and 'family friendly'. This is normally a euphemistic way of saying that there aren't many flashy features on board – but that's not the case with this impressively specified little TV.

Feature-rich BRAVIA Internet Video portal ; Design ; USB recording ; New user interface

Poor motion picture resolution ; No support for MKV files
