For a tighter budget, the Insignia F20 2024 could be appealing due to its lower cost, but it falls short in performance across all types of content and has limited features. On the other hand, while the TCL S470G is more expensive, it offers greater functionality with voice commands and a higher speaker power, which may enhance the audio experience. Also, the TCL is better suited for using as a monitor and has some support for advanced HDR formats like Dolby Vision, HLG, and HDR10+, which can improve the viewing experience for movies and streaming content. If you often watch in brightly lit rooms, neither of these TVs perform well, but the TCL has a slight edge in this regard. Keep in mind that if you're looking for better picture quality or plan to use the TV for varied content like gaming and sports, you might want to consider increasing your budget for a TV with higher performance in those areas.

About Insignia
Insignia is an in-house brand from BestBuy. It offers a range of TV sets that are lower-end and smaller size. They are manufactured in China by Hisense, which is another TV brand. Insignia TVs use Amazon's Fire OS as the smart TV software, providing users with a highly user-friendly experience.
About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
