TV with 43-inch diagonal, 4K resolution and support for Smart TV running on Android. This 2020 model also boasts a surprisingly low price - for similar specifications, more established manufacturers are asking for at least twice as much money.

Inexpensive cost is manifested in the screen refresh rate reduced to 50 Hz, low-power speakers (16 W per pair), pixel response time increased to 8 ms, lack of support for Wi-Fi 5 GHz. Digital channels are great, the built-in media player opens various video formats and graphics from a flash drive.

Country: Russia (produced in Belarus)
Average price: 7605 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.8
One of the most inexpensive TVs with a popular 32-inch diagonal. The resolution is not encouraging - only 720p, and this is too little for an 81-centimeter diagonal. But here is a high-contrast image and an excellent speaker system. It is several times more powerful than other representatives of our top cheapest models. So, here is a system of two speakers with a power of 10 watts each. TV can be mounted on the wall using VESA 200x200.
The reviews praise the image quality, built-in media player, support for external drives connected via USB, good analog and digital signal. The disadvantages are the low screen resolution, long channel switching. If you need a 32-inch TV with a built-in tuner for an inexpensive country house, then pay attention to this model - it fits all the criteria.

Country: Japan
Average price: 7380 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.6
One of the most budget TVs, which boasts a diagonal of 32 inches. Sound power is twice as high as that of competitors in the same price segment - 12 watts in total per pair of speakers. It is a pity that the screen resolution is only 1366x768. This is not enough for an 81-centimeter diagonal. But here is a high-contrast image, good viewing angles (175 ° according to the manufacturer). There is a function of surround sound and automatic volume equalization.
There is a USB connector, the ability to play movies recorded on a USB flash drive, a function for recording on-air TV programs, a sleep timer and child protection. There is no “Smart TV”, but no one has it in models from this price segment. There is a built-in tuner. There are a lot of shortcomings: users say that the plastic of the case is flimsy, the picture quality is low due to the low resolution.
6 Irbis 20S31HD302B 20" (2019)
Country: Russia
Average price: 5347 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.6
One of the most affordable TVs of domestic production. For the amount of about 5000 rubles you will get a 20-inch TV with HD resolution, a good matrix (large viewing angles up to 178 °, good brightness, no dead pixels), a screen refresh rate of 60 Hz (this is a standard indicator for mid-budget models). There is a USB connector - through it you can connect a USB flash drive and watch recorded movies from it.
You can also record on-air programs on a USB stick and watch them later. The sound is weak - two 3-watt speakers sound quite quiet and unbalanced in frequencies. Some users complain about a weak tuner - someone does not have digital channels, although everything works fine for most owners. Bonuses from the manufacturer: a large convenient remote control, low power consumption (19 W in operating mode), good build quality.

Rating (2022): 4.9
The cheapest 20-inch TV from the conditionally Japanese brand Asano. Instances for the Russian market are assembled at the facilities of the largest holding Horizont. This model boasts not only a surprisingly low price, but also a good picture, easy setup. TV is able to "catch" all 20 channels from the standard set.
