The software in the smart TV might be unsupported in 3 or 4 years time. If you use an external Fire Stick / Roku / Now TV device, then it's easy to just buy a new one when the current one goes out of date.
At that distance, watching on such a small screen unfortunately won't actually make any difference at all what you get. You won't really be able to tell any difference between even 720p HD and SD on a 32" diagonal. So you could just pick something up for a little as possible from freecycle or gumtree or a FB group and save the money towards a better TV when you can watch properly.
My in-laws used to have a 32" TV. I could see a difference between BBC1 and BBC1 HD. I'll check tonight but I'm pretty sure I can see a slight difference between BBC1 and BBC1 HD on the 24" TV we have in our bedroom.
Given that any new TV you buy will have 1080 capability, it doesn't really matter. When you can get a new one with a 5 year warranty for under £200, it's not really worth faffing around on places like Gumtree.
Unless you are planning to plug it into a soundbar or HiFi system, the most important thing to check is which model has the least bad speakers.
