Given that the Vizio D-Series is significantly less expensive than the Toshiba C350LU, it's important to consider what you're getting for the price. If you're looking for a smaller screen and basic features, the Vizio D-Series offers a 32-inch display and decent performance for cartoons and animation, and is serviceable for watching movies, sports, and general TV content, particularly in dark rooms. The Toshiba C350LU, despite being more expensive, provides a larger 43-inch screen and better performance for using it as a monitor, having great upscaling, and supports more HDR formats, which might improve the viewing experience for HDR content. However, both TVs have limitations in gaming and may struggle with picture quality in very bright rooms. If economy is the primary concern and you don't mind a smaller screen, the Vizio might suit your needs, but if you're after a slightly better overall viewing experience and additional features like voice commands, consider the Toshiba.

"A Full HD TV that has the wits of most 4K TVs at a bottom-barrel price point. It has decent black levels thanks to its full array lighting and the above-par brightness will surprise you. Compared to the competition, the Vizio D-Series is probably the most affordable TV out there from a reputable manufacturer which makes it compelling."
