If you're on a tight budget and looking for the most affordable option, the Insignia F30 could save you money. However, it offers poor performance across the board including picture quality and gaming, which might not be satisfying if you're looking for a good all-around TV experience. The Toshiba C350LU costs more, but it has better color performance right out of the box and supports additional HDR formats like Dolby Vision and HLG, which could enhance your viewing experience with more vibrant colors and better contrast in supported content. Neither TV is particularly well-suited for bright rooms or offers great sound quality, so you may want to consider adding external speakers and placing the TV away from direct light. Additionally, the Toshiba C350LU offers voice commands for accessibility which could be convenient if that feature appeals to you. Give Feedback

Tom's guide
Michael Gowan | August 2021
"Still one of the best bargain TVs. The best feature remains its quick and responsive implementation of Fire TV OS and all the goodies that come with it. Having Alexa inside the Insignia 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition brings a lot of value, from voice control of TV functions to access to your smart home devices."
