If you're looking for a more affordable option and you don't mind lower quality across various content types like movies, sports, and gaming, then the Insignia F20 could be suitable. However, keep in mind that its performance in a bright room is not ideal, and it generally delivers poor picture quality. On the other hand, the Insignia F30 2024, while slightly more expensive, offers slightly better performance for sports content and in bright rooms, as well as very good color gamut, which means it can display a wider range of colors. It also supports HDR, which means you’ll get better contrast and color in supported content. Nevertheless, both TVs have limitations in overall picture quality and might not be the best fit if you're looking for a TV with great picture performance. Give Feedback
