If you're on a strict budget, the Insignia F20 is more wallet-friendly, but keep in mind it offers lower picture quality across the board which might not be ideal for a satisfying viewing experience, especially in dark or bright rooms. The Samsung Q60B, while more costly, offers a better overall picture, performance in bright rooms, and color quality, making it a solid choice for a variety of content including movies and animation. Gaming enthusiasts, however, may not find either TV to significantly enhance their experience. Both options would not excel in a sunny room, but the Samsung would fare better. If sound quality is important, the Samsung also has a more powerful speaker system. Choose the Insignia if saving money is your top priority and you have low viewing expectations, otherwise, consider investing in the Samsung Q60B for superior everyday watching and a more vibrant color experience.

"Samsung's 2022 QLED workhorse shines in bright rooms and with HDR. The Samsung Q60B stands out from the slew of entry-level TVs with an ultra-thin frame, a skinny profile from the side and even narrow stand legs. The Q60B is a very good bright-room TV, and my subjective impression of its ample light output was proven by measurements."
