Design

Let’s start talking about the design of this Panasonic TX-32FS403. The truth is that this is perhaps the weakest point of this television. What we are going to find are some glossy black frames that are not exactly thin. Although it must be said that the sides and the top are somewhat smaller than the bottom bezel, where the manufacturer’s name stands out. In general, it reminds us a lot of the Panasonic TX-40S400E that we already analyzed previously. East Panasonic TV has measurements of 733 × 437 × 69 mm without brackets. If we put the two boomerang-shaped legs that it brings in the box, it reaches a weight of 6 kilos. If we remove the bases we will be able to anchor it on the wall using a 200 x 200 VESA bracket.
