Picture and sound that punches above its weight

Even though the price is low, the 'wow' factor is high — the Insignia has a picture as crisp and colors as vivid as models well above its price point. The audio, too, is top-notch. In fact, nearly 16,000 shoppers gave this model a perfect five-star rating. "I am honestly very pleasantly surprised with how much I like this TV," reported a satisfied Amazon shopper. "As far as clarity goes, I believe (HD) 720p is plenty for this screen size."

At 24 inches, it's just the set for tight spaces. Says a fan: "Don't see how you are going to get better sound in a TV this small. Perfect for the kitchen or bedroom...Also paired well with the Alexa android app on my smartphone. Nothing to complain about."

If it's out there, you can watch it

As a Fire TV Edition, this model lets you stream 4K movies and TV shows from Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, YouTube, Disney+, Prime Video, SlingTV, Paramount+, Peacock and more without a separate streaming box or stick. And we love that Alexa is included in the remote. So if you’re not a fan of endlessly scrolling through a grid of titles (and who is?), you can just say, 'Alexa, play A League of Their Own,' and voilà!

How does it compare to other built-in video-streaming TVs? Take the LG 24-inch HD LED TV — it doesn’t come with video streaming or smart home voice features built-in, and it’s more expensive. Um...hard pass.

Cord cutters unite!

With its built-in Wi-Fi, the Insignia 24-inch Fire TV Edition TV lets you break free from cable. You won’t experience lag or latency while streaming HD movies and TV shows either.

"I have been very pleased with the Wi-Fi reception of the built-in Fire TV," continued the shopper. "It actually works a lot better than the USB plug-in external Fire Sticks, for whatever reason. Super handy in campgrounds with weak Wi-Fi or when using my phone's hotspot."

This five-star fan agrees: "Outstanding TV. The picture quality is great..." It also has three HDMI ports, so you can hook up a soundbar, video game console, or Blu-ray player. You can even surf the web right on the TV.

At just $80 (was $170), this top-notch set is almost an impulse buy. "Great value," said Captain Obvious (aka a happy Amazon shopper).

And if the 24-inch model is too small for your viewing pleasure, you might want to snatch up the 39-inch Insignia TV. It's now 30% off, which isn't too shabby for a Smart TV. It has all of the same great features of the 24-inch model, but with 15 more inches of fun.
