Asked 7 years ago by RichBen.
- Answer The distance between the outer sides of the stand legs is 42.31". The stand legs can only go into the TV in one direction.

QuestionHas anyone experienced Vertical banding? any noticeable issues?
Asked 7 years ago by Paulie.
- Answer Yes, but it varies by individual unit. Thankfully, Best Buy makes it easy to exchange if the variation is unacceptable. Clouding, low-luminosity/non-functioning LEDs, poor audio isolation were/are also present. (Also, my replacement unit looks like someone placed a clamp on one of the screen corners.) I'm going to try one more time, and then switch to Sony's X900E or X900F if I can't get lucky on the 3rd shot. Again, as much as I'm frustrated with Vizio's uneven build quality, I'm in love with Best Buy's assistance.

Questionwhich one better tv vizio p series 2018 or sony x900e?
Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The p series is the better tv for your money. The sonys I bought over the years tend to break and have problems. I had the 900e it had a bad HDMI port of it. Plus the 900f only comes with 2 HDMI ports that support 4k hdr, and one of those is the arc HDMI port. The p serious has 4 HDMI ports that support 4k hdr. And the 5th one supports 4k but no hdr , but in game mode get 15.3 Ms iput lag which is the best iv'e seen for gaming in a very long tv.

QuestionI don't know about casting and all that and likely my S4 is not up to the task. I can't find a list of what apps are on the tv. Watch a lot of Discovery channel and wondering if any way I can access the free Discovery go app with this tv.
Asked 6 years ago by Thearcher.
- Answer Discovery is not one of the apps available. If you would like to watch it, and are unable to cast, you would need to buy a streaming device such as a Roku and hook it up through one of the 5 HDMI ports. You might want to buy a streaming device even if you only wanted the apps available since they mostly tend to be frustratingly slow and laggy. The picture on this TV is excellent, though, so I didn't mind spending the little bit extra on a Roku to have better features. Here are the apps that come with the TV. Youtube; Plex; Amazon Prime; Netflix; WatchFree Vizio; Hulu; Vudu: IHeartRadio; Xumo; Youtube TV: CBS all access; NBC; Fandango Now; CBS News; Redbox; Dazn; Flixfling; Fitfusion; Crackle; Taste It; Newsy; Haystack tv; Dove Channel; Curiosity Stream; TG; Pluto; Music B; ConTV.

QuestionWhich is better the 55 inch p series or the TCL r615
Asked 7 years ago by Ace.
- Answer This is the question that everyone has done some amount of research is still trying to answer. The TCL is cheaper and there are a few trade-offs like a 60hz native refresh rate vs. the Vizio's 120hz. Net, after spending hours doing thorough research, I decided that the build quality and bending issues on some of the TCLs are a deal breaker, for now until quality control with TCL is fixed.

QuestionWhat is the difference between the series E, and the series P, 55 inch 4K tvs?
Asked 7 years ago by gusbus.
- Answer The P series is Vizio’s flagship model. I owned an E series and took it back, just too dark. This tv is comparable to all the OLED TVs at half the cost. I suggest going to the store and viewing for yourself.

QuestionWhat is the tvs native refresh rate ? How many HDMI ports does this tv have ? How many of those ports support HDR and 4K ? Does this tv support HDR 10 and DOLBY VISION
Asked 7 years ago by CAP.
- Answer This TV has a 120hz panel (native 120hz refresh rate). The effective refresh rate is 240hz. It has 5 HDMI ports, not sure how many support HDR and 4K (I think last year's model 4 of the HDMI ports supported both). This TV does support both HDR10 and Dolby Vision, as well as HLG for broadcast channels.

QuestionWhich is better in the Vizio, Pseries, E series or any others and what does that mean for a series?
Asked 6 years ago by Abner.
- Answer If you wanna see how they compare in action, there's a good video review on YouTube from RTings.com comparing them. The P Series Quantum is the best and most expensive of the Vizios. The standard P Series (not quantum) is a step down but still pretty nice. I have a 2018 model 55" P Series (NOT Quantum) and I like it a lot with a few qualms. The E-series is a step down from that in price and quality. All of them have HDR and active full array local dimming (this makes the black parts on screen darker, like OLED but cheaper) but from what I understand the local dimming is better on the higher-end Vizios. While the E-series advertises an "effective refresh rate" of 120hz, only the P-series (quantum or standard) have an HDMI input capable of 120hz at 1080p. This is only important if you plan on using the TV for PC gaming, or getting next gen consoles.

QuestionCan I hook up a wireless bluetooth surround sound / sound bar to this TV?
Asked 6 years ago by Nick.
- Answer Yes, you can hook a sound bar to it. If you want to you your cable remote to adjust sound then be sure to use the HDMi ARC port oh the back of your TV and hook to you soundbar. Of course that assumes you sound bar is ARC capable. If not then, then you can use Optical cable to hook it up
