If you're looking for a cost-effective option and mainly watch TV shows or use the television in well-lit rooms, the Insignia F30 might be suitable. However, it has limitations such as poor overall picture quality, making it less ideal for dark room viewing or for content like sports and gaming. On the other hand, the Samsung QN90A costs more but offers very good picture quality, excellent brightness for HDR content, and is outstanding for gaming with its low input lag. It also performs exceptionally well in bright rooms. Choose the Insignia for budget constraints and casual watching or the Samsung if you're willing to invest in a higher quality viewing experience for diverse content, including sports, movies, and gaming, without concern for the room's lighting conditions.
