The problem with a built-in is that you have no alternative choices.
The problem with a USB model is the potential for inadequate bandwidth.
I don't believe you can add a TV tuner to a laptop other than at the time of manufacture, so the only way is to get one already on it as an original feature.
Suggest you explore the USB ones first. Hauppauge has a new one for $100. Also, check out Avermedia.
