If you're on a tight budget, the Insignia F30 2024 could save you some money in comparison to the TCL S446. However, if you value better color accuracy straight out of the box and slightly higher performance when using the TV as a monitor, you may find the TCL S446 to be worth the extra cost. Both TVs have their shortcomings in overall picture quality, particularly in bright and dark room performance, which are not ideal for serious movie-watching or gaming experiences. If you often watch in a bright room, note that neither TV excels in that setting. Neither set will deliver a top-notch experience for sports, movies, or gaming, so if these are priorities for you, you might want to consider stretching your budget further for a TV with better performance in these areas.

About Insignia
Insignia is an in-house brand from BestBuy. It offers a range of TV sets that are lower-end and smaller size. They are manufactured in China by Hisense, which is another TV brand. Insignia TVs use Amazon's Fire OS as the smart TV software, providing users with a highly user-friendly experience.
About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
