If price is a major concern and you often watch TV shows, news, or sports in bright rooms, the Insignia F30 may suit your budget while being adequate for such content. However, if you're looking for top-notch picture quality for watching movies, playing games, or enjoying HDR content, and you don't mind spending more, then the Samsung S95B would provide far superior performance, especially in dark rooms. The Samsung S95B also offers much better sound quality and is better suited for use as a computer monitor, but it will cost you significantly more. If you plan to have a very clean installation with minimal visible cables, the Samsung S95B's One Connect Box is a notable advantage. Give Feedback

"Samsung's S95B is easily one of the best high-end 4K TVs on the market. S95B is able to achieve industry-leading color performance and a brighter screen than typical OLEDs. In fact, the display's OLED color coverage is nearly in a class of its own. The S95B is a beautiful TV, even when it's off. The display has a pleasing, minimalist design with nearly bezel-less borders and an impressively thin profile."
