Only your own eyes will tell if you can see any difference.

But FWIW I've just had to make the same decision, and I chose a 50Hz model. I based this on a visit to Comet where I spent perhaps an hour comparing different models. I came to the conclusion that on a 32" or 37" screen size, I could not detect any difference, irrespective of the material (SD or HD, static images or live sport).

I also could not tell apart "HD ready" and "full HD" at sensible viewing distances - though I did pay a bit extra for the latter anyway.

All televisions display the actual image at 50 Hz, if they went any faster then you'd end up with a 1 hour programme lasting 6 minutes.

Read >THIS< thread for more info, and try to ignore the pi$$ing contests that occasionally shine through.

Seems to tick all the boxes WiFi, 1080p, Freeview HD tuner.

Should work well with an HD source.
