If you are on a tight budget and need something affordable, the Toshiba C350LU could be suitable, but keep in mind that its overall picture quality and performance across various content types like gaming, sports, and movies are on the lower end. On the other hand, the Vizio M-Series costs more but offers better picture quality, especially for movies and cartoons. It also provides a better experience in dark rooms. If you often watch TV in bright rooms, neither TV is ideal, but the Vizio may perform slightly better. Neither TV is particularly suited for gaming. If you use your TV primarily as a monitor or for watching colorful content, the Toshiba stands out for its color out-of-the-box accuracy and wide viewing angle, but remember that it falls short in most other areas compared to the Vizio M-Series.
