While this seems like a solid deal, I have a feeling there will be better deals on this size of TV as we approach the Holidays. Deal experts what do you think?

Never liked the Insignia product line from Best Buy. Would get Toshiba, Samsung, Sony, LG, Vizio any day of the week over this. Black Friday is right around the corner if you can wait. Do your research, look up the product, reviews, and on YouTube before buying.

I'm not an expert and don't claim to be. I prefer to spend a little more upfront than have to re-spend again on a newer model in a year or two.

I think if you are in the market for a new TV I would buy soon before possible supply chain issues.

A basic direct lit LED tv by best buy's in house brand costs this much? Is this because of supply chain issues? I feel like a TV like this would normally be a $150-200 black Friday doorbuster with unlimited stock.

I just got this TV earlier this week as it was on sale for $200 off...happy to get the extra cash back today!
Most Fire TV are good for bedrooms as they are cheap and work great...but had very average picture. Was actually picking up the Toshiba C350 and saw this on the wall and it was shocked how good it looked when I saw the insignia logo on it and low price. It is a VA panel with quantum dot filter and this makes a HUGE difference in the color / brightness over the other budget TVs without that technology. I like the firetv interface so this is a good fit....the smart functions work identical to a firestick 4K.

This TV BLOWS the budget : Vizio, LG, TCL, and Samsung models out of the water and easily sits in the mid tier with other QLED type tvs.
It is VERY colorful and bright, with good motion handling and excellent sound/speakers including virtual X. The direct backlight light is implemented very well - maybe one of the best in its class. , Blacks are deep black and I really see no light issues which are typical with the lower/mid tier full array panels.

Regarding Insignia as a brand / reliability:
Many of the budget TVs are all made by HISENSE, (Toshiba, Vizio, Insignia, TCL, ect)....even some of the lower tier name brand sets). No real difference anymore outside of who is controlling the overall design, hardware spec, software features, and price point. Never had a problem with either of my other two fire tv (one insignia, one toshiba).

No non-retail website reviews. Been out for over two months so there should at least be a few reviews. Dunno about you but I've never made a purchase this big without reading at least a few reviews.

My Chase Offers had 5% cash back up to $22. That is up to $440 in cost, which would put this set right there.

The BB site says QLED. Does it have local dimming zones? How many? If it has all that should be better than your basic LED.
