If you're looking for a more affordable option and don't mind compromising on bright room performance and gaming features, the Vizio D-Series '22 could work for you. However, if you're willing to invest more to get better upscaling, motion processing, and usability as a monitor, plus voice commands and more HDMI ports, the Samsung Q60C would be the better choice. Keep in mind that the Samsung model offers additional HDR support for formats like HDR10+ and HLG, which would enhance your viewing experience with supported content. Both TVs struggle with brightness and viewing angles, so they might not be the best fit for very bright rooms or large groups spread out around the room. Give Feedback

Samsung TVs are well-regarded for their high manufacturing quality and user-friendly software, making them an excellent choice for consumers seeking an intuitive viewing experience.
About Vizio
