Rank #2 in Best 32 Inch TV 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the QLED Label Doesn't Set the Price
Hisense 32E4QTUK 32-Inch Full HD Smart TV with Freely
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Hisense 32E4QTUK is the runner-up in this guide: a 32-inch 1080p LED TV at £145.38, with Freely built in so live channels arrive over the internet instead of through an aerial. Nothing in the listing calls it QLED — it is described as Direct Lit LED, with a grid of individual LEDs behind the panel. At £145.38 it sits inside the band the 1080p screens in this guide occupy (£138 to £198.98), and the 720p sets run from £119 to £149, so this higher-resolution screen costs less than some of the lower-resolution ones.
The finding on this listing is in the spec table itself. The Display Technology field says HD; the Resolution field says 1080p. The listing does not explain which applies. It also gives no contrast figure at all — that field simply reads High — so this is the screen in the guide that asks you to take contrast on trust, while the QLED comparison above turns on a stated 1000:1 against a stated 100000:1. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it stands, not from any testing by us.
