When choosing between the Toshiba C350LU and the Vizio V-Series, take into account that the Toshiba generally costs more. If a tight budget is crucial, the Vizio may be the better option, however, if you can stretch your budget a little for colors that really stand out, the Toshiba excels in this area. For watching sports or content with fast motion, neither option is particularly strong, but the Vizio does have better contrast, which could be beneficial for movies. If you're planning to use the TV in bright rooms, both models have their limitations, but the Toshiba provides a better viewing angle if you often watch from different positions. Gamers might find both TVs lacking due to their gaming performance, but for general TV watching, news, and animation, the Vizio might be slightly more suitable due to its fair overall picture quality. Neither TV stands out for sound quality, and if you're interested in newer HDR formats like Dolby Vision or want the best reflection handling, neither option is ideal. If you prioritize having a voice command feature, that’s something the Toshiba offers. Give Feedback

"Vizio's cheapest 4K HDR TV packs in a lot for a low price. The voice control via the remote works well, about as well as Roku's version on devices that have it. So if you know your way around a TV menu, or want to be able to dial in the picture even on an inexpensive TV, the Vizio is the better choice"
