I did some quick research on this last fall and didn't take notes. 
I'm looking for a display that won't break the bank to replace my 2007-2008 22" ViewSonic monitor. I've seen a number of posts from people that use Vizio's as monitors, and I love our Vizio TV and thought it would be a good solution.
I want this primarily for photo editing. I have no issue using the MBP screen for text editing should it be a bit fuzzy on the TV.
I say now I would probably not watch TV on this, but tell me a way to watch TV in the corner and I just may (actually I have put a stream on one screen and worked on the other - but it's not mission critical and wouldn't happen often).
Since I already have a 22" I'm not sure 24" is even worth the upgrade? I was hoping for a 28-30". I'm not sure I can go much bigger due to space.
I'm not seeing what I remember seeing in the 2016 models - something around 30" for under $150 (admittedly that could have been a 2015 model I saw).
The D series has a 24" at $140 and a 32" at $200 (I think the refresh rate is lower on the 28" so I crossed that off)
E series also has a 32" at $200
Does anyone know about the 2015-2016 models that maybe I can find in another outlet?
I'd like to keep this under $200, and under $150 would be a huge plus.
Thanks for any advice - even if it's another brand.
