If you're looking for higher quality for movies and gaming, the Samsung Q70A is the better choice with its good picture and gaming performance, and better contrast and brightness. However, it struggles with reflections and has a limited viewing angle, which could be a concern in a brightly-lit room or if you often watch TV from an angle. On the other hand, the Toshiba C350LU is significantly more affordable, and while its overall picture quality is lower, it performs well in terms of colors out of the box and has a good viewing angle. It's a sensible option for casual viewing, especially in a well-lit room, but may not be suitable for serious gamers or movie enthusiasts due to its lower performance in key areas like contrast, motion processing, and dark room viewing.
