If budget is your primary concern, the Vizio D-Series '22 offers a more wallet-friendly option while providing good performance for cartoons and animation. However, if you're willing to spend more for generally better performance when using the TV as a computer monitor, the LG UP8000 would be a better fit despite its higher cost. Keep in mind that neither TV excels in bright rooms and both have limitations in gaming, sports viewing, and in dark room settings. The LG also has additional HDMI ports which could be useful if you plan to connect multiple devices. Give Feedback

"What we liked on this one was the very sharp 4K images it could display, its good up-scaling capabilities, nice viewing angles and extremely low input lag. Lastly the new webOS 6.0 is great even if it needs some time to get your bearings while the redesigned Magic Remote feels fresh even if functionality remains the same."
