7 best 28-inch TVs

Criterias of choice

If we talk about TVs in general, the number of criteria will be quite large - matrix types, availability of smart devices, size, etc. In the case of 28-inch models, everything will be a little simpler.

You should immediately understand that the number of models here is quite small, since the size is not the most popular. On the one hand, there are 32 inches, which are often of interest to users and differ slightly in size, and on the other hand, the previous size is 24 inches, which is often more relevant, since it is better suited to a small room.

First of all, you should understand that there will be no serious differences between a budget small TV and an expensive one. In such diagonals, manufacturers do not bother themselves with installing the best matrices or the presence of numerous picture enhancement technologies. According to experts, the main rule for choosing a small TV is the ratio of price and quality. At the same time, quality refers to functions and capabilities, not the manufacturer. Most famous brands do not work with this size, so you will have to choose from little-known Chinese brands.

Main criteria

So, the first point that should be clarified is the type of matrix. Most likely, this will not be stated in the technical specifications or on the price tag, so you can determine which type is installed on the TV by its viewing angles. If it is IPS, and I recommend going with it, then the angles will be maximum – 178 degrees. If the specification states that the angles are smaller, then the model is probably equipped with a TN matrix and this is not a good choice.

The second point that may be important is how the legs are positioned. If the user thinks that he needs a 28 diagonal, then this is probably due to the fact that he is limited in space. It is possible that the device will have to be placed on a small bedside table or even a refrigerator. In this case, the legs attached to the edges of the gadget may not fit. It is better to take a closer look at options with a central leg.

Buyers are often interested in whether they need to pursue FullHD resolution if the TV is small. It is worth understanding that this does not make much sense, except in cases where the TV will be used as a monitor. Another option where high resolution is needed is to watch movies in high quality downloaded to a flash drive. If your only task is to connect a television antenna, then there is no point in overpaying for permission.
