Even with a smaller budget, consumers are spoiled for choice within the TV market, and big name manufacturers have included the more price-conscious amongst us in their newly released models. No one misses out, and everyone can still purchase high-quality TVs, with all the latest tech.
We’ve tried and tested numerous TVs with a price of under £250, and here are our top choices
1) Toshiba 32” Smart Full-HD LED TV with Freeview Play

This model from tech giants Toshiba features a good build quality, and whilst the bezels aren’t the thinnest ever, the TV still looks and feels well made and decent.
Performance-wise, Toshiba have done it again. A balanced grey uniformity and contrast ratio allows a rich deep black, even in a dark room, and the brighter tones, even with the wide viewing angle, show no halo flare whatsoever.
