Best TVs under $300

Top pick: Samsung 55" M70HB Mini LED 4K (2026) — the only set here that gives you a big 55-inch screen, Mini LED backlighting and 4K in one go, and it's the one most people will be happiest living with day to day.

Who the others suit:

• Samsung 40" F6000F — a solid, well-reviewed mid-size set for a bedroom or kitchen; 1080p, not 4K.
• Vizio 43" Quantum QLED — the best-rated pick if you want a slightly bigger screen and vivid colour on a tight budget.
• Hisense 40" QD4 Fire TV — easiest for Alexa households and Fire Stick users.
• Roku 32" R3 / Insignia 32" — small, cheap second sets for a spare room.
• Pioneer 43" R851 — 4K on a smaller screen, Roku interface.

Skip 720p sets like the Samsung H5000F unless size and price are all that matter.
