Customer Ratings & Reviews

This would actually be my fourth Insignia TV purchase. I previously bought the 24”, 32”, and 43” versions, and I am now a proud owner of Insignia’s largest size class of flat screen television. I mainly have used them to game on my consoles and watch my DVDs and Blu-Rays, and they all have looked and played great on all of them. 1080p is still good enough for me; I don’t need 4K yet right now. Nor do I use all those Smart TV features. Set up was quick, easy, and user friendly. There are different picture modes meant for different uses. I usually keep mine at the Vivid setting, for those bright, vibrant, brilliant colors, with slight adjustments. Images are sharp, clear, crisp, and colorful. The sound is adequate, but I might still suggest connecting some kind of external speaker system to the unit if one truly wants better quality audio. The product was also rather light for a television of its size, which surprised me a little. I thought I would be struggling to get it into place, but I was able to lift it on my own and set it where I wanted to, and I’m not a big guy. Note to possible future buyers: the tips of the TV’s legs, from one outer edge of a footprint to the other, is about 39 inches apart. I hope this helps those who wish to use the stands included with the TV and stand it up on a table of some kind. If you’re looking for just a basic, good-quality, modern flat-screen television that does the job and sells for a bargain price, you really can never go wrong with Insignia. While there are Smart TV and 4K versions of some of Insignia’s screens, the non-Smart TV and 720s and 1080s work just as well for those who do not need/use Smart TV features or are content with those resolutions for now. Particularly, it doesn’t get much better of a deal than $300 for a 55” screen. Other brand TVs of similar sizes would run up to around twice that much or more. I personally would like to thank Insignia and Best Buy for making the possibility of owning a flat screen television much more affordable and accessible. So what are you waiting for?

This is a great dumb TV that I've made into a smart TV by adding a fire stick and a Channel Master DVR Plus. I have also added an antenna to watch broadcast TVs that works that play only in 720p and 1080i. So this TV is perfect for the time being until atsc 3 standard comes in in about 2 to 3 years and then they'll start broadcasting 4K television signals. At this time I have adjusted the brightness to contrast and the color using a world of Wonder Blu-ray Disney disc that is a video reference Blu-ray for calibration. And I have also hooked up my Sony 5.1 sound system by coaxial cable to the audio output of the TV it sounds fantastic and the skin tones and color are true to life after tweaking everything you cannot get a better deal for $229!

It's a "dumb"/basic TV - nothing "SMART" 3 HDMI and 1 Analog Video input. Just fine for my needs. Color is not a "perfect" out of the box experience and requires some tweaks. There are other imperfections that some may not like -- concerning the picture quality. But it was CHEAP. So, not being so picky here - just mentioning it. I find the sound to be adequate. It is as loud or louder than any other TV I have owned. I like the bezel, especially how the "Insignia" name almost fades away and isn't as noticeable/bold as other TV's I own. The on-screen menu/guide takes some getting used to - but seems to work without any bugs that I have noticed. Changes channels very fast - even has an on-screen clock! The remote is basic - but I love that it has large buttons and some of the largest printing I have seen on a remote.

I Love It Great Color Nice Sound Perfect Size And Nice Price.

Haven't had it long, but it's my second Insignia tv (have a 40" in my bedroom") and it's suiting the purpose and I'm loving it. Didn't need a smart tv because I have Amazon Fire TV. The price was very good for a 55". I do agree that the sound could be better, but I'm not usually one to blast my tv during a movie, etc. May buy a speaker bar though at some point, but for now, it's working just fine for me. Very happy with my purchase.

Got an Insignia 2 years ago for Christmas and I love it. Bought another, this one, for another room in the house! Great picture, great sound, no issues with this at all!!

I wanted a quality TV for a decent price. I found this one and slept on it for weeks before making the purchase and I’m glad I did. Pros: volume louder than I thought (I tweaked the settings until I found one that works best for me), picture quality, price, screen size Cons: no buttons on the TV, unless I missed something

While this isnt a 4K, which i dont meed, this TV is a great value for the size. The picture is clear, sound is good (I don’t have a soundbar). Just FYI this Tv has no buttons on it. To turn it on you have to ise the remote.

This TV is a great value. I think it has a great picture quality for the money. I don't watch a ton of sports, so I didn't need one of those ultra fancy TVs. This one has a really good picture for everything from news, to movies to sports.

We actually bought this for the man cave (garage) so when we work on cars, we don't miss sports. It has a great picture from any angle, even up close. Happy with our choice.

I like this TV. The HD is different from my other insignia TV but it's great. I love how big it is. It does look like a 55inch but it's nice and big. This is the 3rd insignia TV I've bought in the past 2 years. I have 4 in my house.

Worth the price. The television was very easy to hook up.

While shopping for a larger tv I ran across this one. For a 55" at this price you can't go wrong.

Nice Tv and sound, my daughter bought has one also

Cheapest 55” tv with awesome quality! Big enough to feel luxurious but not obnoxious!

This TV exceeds my expectations for the price. We couldn’t ask for more!

I’m enjoying my new tv the picture and the quality of the picture is awesome

Great tv for the price! We are using it for the man cave.

I bought this tv along with the 32” Insignia for my wife and we love the picture quality I don’t need smart tv’s I user the firestick on all my tv’s and everything is good the sound quality is good could be louder but for now we’re good .. I’ve also had the rest of the family but 32”’s lol my step son and my mother in law .

Will definitely recommend to anyone. Love it. Really big too.
