If you're on a tight budget and looking for a small TV, the Insignia F20 could work for you, but be aware that its overall picture quality is poor and it struggles with gaming, sports, and viewing in both dark and bright rooms. On the other hand, if you're willing to invest in a larger, more expensive TV, the TCL R648 offers a much better viewing experience with good overall picture quality and very good gaming performance. It also performs well in dark rooms and excels in bright environments. However, the TCL model may not be the best option if you plan to watch from wide angles, as its performance in this area is only fair. Give Feedback

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.
