    Ordered the TV, sales screen showed one day available. Received an email stating a postponement, ten days later it finally arrived at store. Checked on ordering thru another store, one day available, not true. Followed thru and then advised, nine day delivery time. So messed up!

    Graphics are so much better than my older flat screen tv. And it really recognizes when a game console is plugged in and it connects to the internet too. My older flat screen was pre smart TV era

    The sound quality on thi TV is horrendous. I am not particularly picky, especially for what is essentially a guest TV. But it sounds so tinny! It has to be turned up ridiculously loud to even begin to hear dialog. I have had this for a few years with very little use an recently have had guests. Now it fails to turn on unless you disconnect the power a few times. Im looking for a new spare and will not buy this brand again.

    I purchased this TV at the end of July 2024. It does not get used on a daily basis but rather once a week or so . Today, October 29, 2025 the screen has partialy gone out. Nothing hs changed . Not placement (it's mounted) not outlet, not wifi: nothing. It was good while it lasted but a year and a half being used only once or twice a week for no more than an hour at a time is worthless. Too bad because Insignia is usually a good private product line for Best Buy.

    The contrast levels are less than desired but it's a fun TV for the price. With Alexa built in, it provides enough entertainment for it's budget. Great for a dorm or a single person looking for something basic.

    Buffering issues and apps don't open...

    The TV was great at first, but no matter what I do, I can't get YouTube to work well. Our internet is not the issue, and no other device has any issues with YouTube. The sound is constantly buffering. The videos run fine, but the sound is terrible. I have factory reset the TV. Uninstalled and reinenstalled. They TV randomly turns off during shows and movies. Apps like Paramount and Philo will not load and it just goes back to the home screen. I am not even sure how to fix this. Based on all of this, I would avoid this TV.
