If you're looking for an affordable option and mainly watch cartoons and animations, or if you plan to use the TV in a dark room, the Vizio D-Series '22 could suit your needs. However, if you can invest more, the Samsung Q80B offers a better gaming experience, higher sound quality, and performs well in bright rooms. Additionally, if you'll be using the TV in a room with wide seating, the Samsung's better viewing angle and reflection handling will provide a more comfortable experience for a large group. The Samsung is also more suitable for fast-action content, like sports, and is a superior choice for HDR content with its greater color volume and HDR support features. Give Feedback

"For most people its picture, sound, and price make it a midrange TV worth considering. HDR brightness was generally exceptional. Its viewing angles are shockingly good, among the very best we’ve seen recently from any non-OLED TV. For gamers input lag isn’t too shabby."
