When choosing between the Vizio D-Series '22 and the Insignia F30, consider that the Vizio offers better performance for cartoons and animation, and has excellent colors out of the box. It also has better reflection handling, which is useful in a bright room. However, the Vizio has no HDMI ports, which could be a significant limitation if you need to connect multiple devices. The Insignia, while more expensive, offers more HDMI ports (three in total) which might be necessary for connecting several devices simultaneously. It also has very good color gamut and color volume scores, indicating a wider range of colors, despite its overall picture quality being rated lower. Neither TV excels in dark or very bright rooms, and both have limitations for gaming. If cost is a major factor and you primarily watch cartoons and animation, the Vizio might be the better choice. However, if you need to connect multiple devices and a somewhat better color display is important to you, the Insignia could be worth the extra expense. Give Feedback

Tom's guide
Michael Gowan | August 2021
"Still one of the best bargain TVs. The best feature remains its quick and responsive implementation of Fire TV OS and all the goodies that come with it. Having Alexa inside the Insignia 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition brings a lot of value, from voice control of TV functions to access to your smart home devices."
