VIZIO - 50" Class M7 Series 4K QLED HDR Smart TV

I bought this TV to pair with my PlayStation 5, and so far I've been blown away! The 4K resolution and HDR 10 support are phenomenal. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this TV to anyone looking to improve their gaming experience!

Quantum M7 I love my TV, still trying to figure out find things. Love everything about TV. Color, Sound, apps, etc. I’ve found apps with Free Movies/Shows/Specials Some of my favorite ones , some old, some new, some that I haven’t seen in a long time.

The tv looks good on certain channels, that is why I gave just4 stars. it does have a lot of apps though.

Better than i thought, actually surprised, 2nd Vizio ive purchased ,

Every year that goes by is another year where televisions have more and more in common with tablets, smart phones, and other computational devices. With that comes a newer set of features that we never had to give attention to when it comes to television sets. Issues such as online connectivity, screen freezes, UI, and App stores all play a significant role in deciding what smart TV to commit to, the two later ones come into play on this set. First off, the image quality on this set is great. Color reproduction and fidelity ring true. Sports, gaming, streaming, as well as through the antenna viewing quality are are all superb. Viewing angle distortion is a total non-issue on this TV and it comes with more than a decent amount of options for image tweaking. visual auto settings and enhancements such as Active Full Array, Motion Control, and Super Resolution put the 'smart' in smart TV. When it comes to visuals, this is a very capable set. Which brings me to a feature that I never knew were important until I used a smart TV with horrible one, UI, software, operating system. My old smart TV was plum dumb. It took a good 10-15 seconds to even connect to the internet. And i'm not taking a moderately fast count either. I'm taking full on, scientific, pro bull riding seconds. When it finally connected online the UI was sluggish and prone to freezing. Not great for any viewer, especially those wanting to quickly catch the last few moments of a sports game or news telecast. I'm very pleased to write that this set suffers from none of that. It's very quick to connect and the UI is very responsive to remote inputs. The only downside? There is no way to download any other Apps to the TV. While they do have the heavy hitters such as Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+, if you are a cord cutter you better be subscribed to YoutubeTV or FUBO otherwise you are out of luck. There are workarounds such as using a steaming device from the HDMI port or casting it from another device such as a phone or tablet. I, being a SlingTV user had to cast it from my smartphone to the TV in order to watch live TV. Its a bit disappointing and not too future proof to not have the ability to download Apps. And while the UI is zippy, it does bombard you with just a massive amount of ads and shows from apps you may not be wanting to use. I would say around 4/5ths of the home screen is ads. With a small row of app icons that you can customize the order of. So in the end while this model does offer superior image quality, the take it or leave it UI may turn off some that aren't willing to deal with additional streaming devices or casting workarounds.

These tvs tend to go bad after a frew months of use. The dimming zones dont work as yhey should cusing brown spots.

I’ve had so far experienced the Vizio brand a few times; I had one previously but exchanged for a different brand. But regarding this model here, it’s sharp with the 4k resolution and is HDR and Dolby vision compatible ; HDR gaming on the PS5 and Dolby vision on the Apple TV. As I was first getting into noticing high definition televisions and such terminology such as frame rate and motion technologies and what have you, I still have much to learn and process. I happened to think that all or most TVs have that soap opera effect when watching movies or series that has a 24-30 default movie type frame rate. But I guess I was wrong as I’ve discovered the website of RTINGS.com that gives just about every ratings from video professionals and has a rating score. But I won’t go into detail in that in regards of this model. This tv doesn’t have that soap opera effect I may still need to do some to tinkering to do but I confirmed later after researching this M series, there’s definitely isn’t that option (or in technical terms there’s no motion interpolation and I’ll miss that feature. The “clear action 360” as found on the specs on the Best Buy page, well it doesn’t specify in detail of what it is but some may assume that it’s going to be having that soap opera effect anyway. When I turn on clear action, in my eyes and interpretation the picture just dims; that’s it - but I’m tinkering with it on Dolby vision with my Apple TV watching movies. Then forums, however says it should be turned off (clear action is pure cinema effect like if you’re in the theater, which I then realized when turning off the lights, and that’s cool), and that you’d have to “reduce judder”, that is if I can find a menu option (still exploring in the menus). Video gaming wise - it doesn’t matter as some games runs 60fps anyhow and I don’t think the soap opera effect benefits when your gaming sometimes (playing COD and there’s stutter or glitching/ghosting of the crosshairs). Asides from all that; build and quality is premium especially the stand. All the ports are on the sides and the power cable is on the back but the plug port is vertical that horizontal - and requires patience as it was HARD to plug in flush. But this would be an ideal wall mount tv no problem! And possibly almost flush against the wall .. or just half and inch clearance. The ports are on the right side so if you have like a cable box to the left, either longer cable or you’ll have to do some rearranging. Overall good tv - Im going to continue tinkering with the settings more.

Love the vivid colors and clearness of my Vizio 50”
