If you’re buying a TV for the sole purpose of watching non-HD cable TV or a second screen for your bedroom that will only watch over-the-air channels, they’re an extremely good deal. However, more and more are now offering Ultra HD resolution or High Dynamic Range support, fixing many of these issues and giving you a better experience than you’d expect from a budget set. If you have a critical eye, this might bother you over time and is one of the reasons you’d opt for a more expensive set from Sony, Samsung or LG. That said, Sceptre TVs really aren’t made for the AV enthusiast crowd: their colors might look washed, faded or incorrect, and motion artefacting is likely to occur in the lower-end models.
This means you won’t be able to access streaming services, like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Hulu, without buying a streaming device, like a Amazon Fire TV Stick, Chromecast or a Roku Premiere.
For example, many of Sceptre’s TVs don’t offer a smart platform. Sceptre caters to a specific audience: budget-conscious buyers who don’t mind missing out on a few features or the best quality. There are more premium prices too, with some of the high-end Sceptre TVs are currently available for $1,000 and higher, and prices reaching up to around $2,499.

Just because Sceptre’s TVs are more affordable doesn’t mean you won’t get the best TV tech inside, of course, and we'd be especially wary of budget 4K models, as low-spec processors can struggle with both 4K output and 4K upscaling from HD / Full HD sources.

Unless you can find this series at a huge discount, one of our picks is the better choice.Sceptre is first and foremost a budget TV brand.
Like our picks, this TV has a 60 Hz refresh rate, so motion isn’t as fluid as it can be on a 120 Hz panel, and this model doesn’t have the gaming-friendly HDMI 2.1 features that our picks offer. The SDR contrast was more reliable, as the TV produced a brightness of around 350 nits with black levels as low as 0.025 nit. Onn also claims 500-nit HDR brightness for this TV, but during testing I measured HDR peaks closer to the low 400s, coupled with black levels that were overly bright on occasion. In our tests, the local-dimming algorithm occasionally got confused, especially with varying shades of gray on the screen (such as when we were searching in the built-in YouTube app), which led to some visible shifting of black levels. Walmart’s in-house Onn brand released a frameless Roku TV, and although the Onn QLED Roku TV is priced competitively against our top picks, it has some flaws that keep it from going the distance.
