If a wide viewing angle is important for your needs, such as when multiple people will be watching from different positions around the room, the Insignia F20 may be more suitable, despite its generally poor performance in other respects. On the other hand, if you'll be viewing the TV in a dark room and are interested in better picture quality and color accuracy, you might prefer the Vizio D-Series, although its angle of view is more limited. Neither TV excels in bright rooms or with gaming content, and both have basic sound systems. The Vizio D-Series supports HDR, which can enhance the viewing experience for compatible content, a feature not available on the Insignia F20. Keep in mind that the Vizio has slightly fewer HDMI ports, which could limit connectivity options for multiple devices. Give Feedback
