Vizio’s latest 4K HDR TVs are out now, with the OLED model launching in the fall

First announced at CES, Vizio’s latest line of 4K TVs is starting to roll out to retailers. However, the company’s first OLED model will take a little longer and isn’t expected to ship until the fall. Still, the other sets in the 2020 family (Vizio confusingly calls it the 2021 lineup for some reason) should offer excellent image quality and be near the top of your list if you plan to upgrade your TV to PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series. X this holidays.

As before, the flagship LED remains the P-series Quantum X, which can reach up to 3,000 nits of maximum brightness and comes in sizes of 65 ($ 1,499.99), 75 ($ 1,999.99), and 85 inches ($ 2,999). Vizio says the entire panel can reach up to 800 nits of brightness. The standard Quantum P-Series comes in 65-inch ($ 1,199.99) and 75-inch ($ 1,699.99) sizes and has an even impressive maximum brightness of 1200 nits, plus up to 240 local dimming zones for excellent contrast and deep blacks.

Although it will come later, you may be curious about how Vizio is pricing its OLED compared to LG. The 65-inch model will retail for $ 1,999.99, with the 55-inch set priced at $ 1,299.99. Therefore, it is fair to say that the company is being aggressive in trying to lure buyers away from the OLED leader.

OLED, Quantum X P-series and Quantum P-series support a variable refresh rate from 48 to 120Hz up to 4K, making them excellent gaming options as they will prevent screen tearing. They run what Vizio refers to as their ProGaming engine. And the entirety of Vizio’s new lineup is HDMI 2.1 compliant on every HDMI port, so you’ll have the latest technology like eARC, regardless of whether you’re buying a high-end model or something like the M Quantum series. They are quite well prepared for the future.

For the M Quantum series, Vizio is exclusively allowing Amazon to sell games containing 90 local dimming zones, while the models that most other retailers get will drop to 30. The V Quantum series remains the tier-of-choice. Vizio budget, but even then you still get HDMI 2.1 and low latency for gaming. The company also has its full line of ready-to-go sound bars, including the impressive $ 999 Elevate that has those upturned speakers for Dolby Atmos content. Sonos has been getting a lot of attention with his Arc lately, but Vizio hopes he can prove himself as the maker of the soundbar to beat.

Vizio TVs continue to run the company’s SmartCast platform, which combines built-in apps with support for Chromecast, AirPlay 2, plus compatibility with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri. Vizio is also adding its own voice command system to control the TV and search for content, which can be used with the push-to-talk remote control. Navigation should be faster in the new sets, according to Vizio, and the Apple TV and Peacock app will be added as native apps later this summer.
