Not a lot of time? Here's a quick summary of my review: Pros: - Picture is bright and colors are vivid. - Seems to be accurate right out of the box. - Screen Uniformity is absolutely amazing, especially at 65". - Local dimming much more effective than in previous years. - Dolby Vision. - Support for smart devices. - Many, many others. Cons: - Remote leaves a little to be desired. - Smart platform needs updating and remains somewhat sluggish. - No native YouTube app at launch though you can use built in Chromecast to cast YouTube to the TV. I have so many positive things to say about this TV that I'm not quite sure where to begin. The picture quality is amazing in both SDR and HDR formats though it's particularly mesmerizing in HDR. The image is nice and bright and can overcome glare extremely well. Comparing to a 50" 2017 M-Series (M50-e1) that I have, there honestly isn't much to compare; it's better in every single way. Blacks can get super deep even when bright highlights are on screen and the local dimming is very effective. The 65" model I got advertises 600 nits peak brightness and 90 local dimming zones and you would be forgiven for thinking those are very conservative numbers. I don't have the equipment to test it, but I am absolutely sure this TV gets brighter than 600 nits in HDR. Quantum dots mean colors are still nice and saturated even at higher brightness levels and the colors seem to be very accurate straight out of the box. I ran Destiny 2 for a while to do an eye test of what this TV can really do in a very high contrast HDR setting and it's incredible. Colors are incredibly saturated and highlights are nice and bright. I've attached a photo that does some small justice to the experience. The screen uniformity of this TV is insane. Usually larger TVs tend to struggle in this area; not this one. I love to watch racing and there is ZERO dirty screen effect on my panel. Built in Google Chromecast means I can watch just about anything on my TV. Twitch, PlayStation Vue, YouTube, etc., etc. all work flawlessly. And though it's not available at the moment, Apple Airplay 2 is coming soon so that you can cast photos or videos straight from an Apple device to your TV. As for the cons, the remote does have a sort of cheap feel but this has more of less been par for the course for Vizio over the years. I don't get too picky about remotes but, for some people, the remote conveys the overall quality of the product and I think Vizio needs to try and elevate their game in this area. However, it works, has shortcuts to more popular apps and gets the job done. Finally, Vizio/s Android based smart platform could use a refresh and can be sluggish and can't keep up if you're trying to speed around on the screen. Again, I don't get too picky about this sort of thing but it's a small issue nonetheless. In short, this is an incredible TV, price aside. When you realize you can get this much TV for less than $1,000, it basically becomes a no-brainer for me. If you want a "premium" brand TV with these features you had better get ready to write a much bigger check AND you may not even get some of these features at all. Vizio has hit an absolute home-run with the 2019 M-series. Buy it, you will NOT be disappointed.

Honestly, for the price it's a no-brainer, especially if you're looking into maybe the entry level OLEDs. Gets very bright and I often have to turn the back light down, 600 nits is plenty and even in daytime viewing. HDR10 and Dolby Vision work perfectly and you can definitely tell that it benefits from the extra nits this TV puts out. Colors and contrast have always been a strength on VIZIO TVs but geez man the Quantum color technology really shines here. I'm glad they finally added that tech from the more expensive P series. M658-G1 is the correct sku you need to find for the M Series to make sure you get the model with 90 Full Array Zones, makes a huge difference over the other one with only 20, so buyer beware on that, they're both 2019 models. Interface is snappy, one of the complaints I've had with previous VIZIOs I've had. As for GAMING, I've read as much as possible as of this date on input lag and delay by the ms and from my searches the P Series has 5 inputs with 22ms of delay on 1-4, and 15ms on HDMI 5(but no HDR support on that port and 1080p max). The M series only has 4 HDMI ports and typically the P Series has more input delay than the M series from year to year since it has more processing overall to do so your safest bet is that the M series has AT MOST 22ms, if not LESS. Which is honestly excellent, been playing on numerous TVs over the years and it honestly feels way less and I play a lot of 60fps fighting games and shooters where it makes a big difference. Trust me. My ONLY CON I HAVE: Is that I wish VIZIO made it in 70-75" lol

I love this TV so much I bought one for myself and again as a house warming gift for my daughter and son-in-law' first home. My son-in law loves it for gaming, My son in L.A. recommended this M series specifically and we all are happy VIZIO customers with Best Buy. Our grand daughter is the newest VIZIO fan!

This 4K 65" TV produces a picture that blows you out of your chair! Razor sharp with vivid colors. Geek Squad did a great job setting it up and took away the old TV. Excellent sales person at Best Buy.

Nice colors, clear screen and bright, grate smart functions . I.love it.

I have red lines running through my TV now. Pay $800 for a TV and it barely lasts over 30 days. Very up seat.

I’ve really been through the wringer with televisions in the last year. Went through two Sony Z9F’s, two Sony 900F’s, and they were all unacceptable. Sony’s quality control proved to be pretty awful. I then decided to go OLED with an LG C8, and I do like that television overall, but one side of the screen is brighter than the other so uniform black scenes in films can look grayish on one side, which is disappointing. Have LG replacing the panel in the coming days. But I never had a problem with Vizio televisions. Have a 30-ish inch model from a super long time ago that still works, and we only recently retired it because we hung a 55” M series Vizio from 2016, which was the primary television in my home theater for a while, in our bedroom. And that’s a great television too. Why did I even seek to upgrade in the home theater then? Because I wanted WCG and better HDR. So, knowing how happy I’ve been with Vizio to date, I rolled the dice on this new M Quantum 65” set. I’m not disappointed. First of all, uniformity is really, really good. I couldn’t notice any jail bars in material watched in a dark room. Curiosity got the best of me so I threw up an all-white screen and it was still impressively uniform. No darkened corners like the competitors, and the jail bars are so light that I have to really look just to see them. Typically, the larger you go up in size, the more imperfections you should expect to deal with. You have a much better shot at good uniformity with sets 55” and under… but I’m impressed with just how clean this 65” is. When the screen is completely black though, I do notice some clouding. However, as soon as there’s anything on-screen, it either clears up or I’m unable to perceive it. In real usage, everything looks fantastic. OLED may have spoiled me a little, because I will say that I don’t get black bars that are so dark they disappear into a pitch black room, but they are plenty dark for an LCD/LED television. It’s worth noting that this may actually improve over the course of time once the LED’s get a couple hundred hours of use, but even as is, I think what I’m seeing is plenty acceptable. What disappoints me about competitor models is that in this price range, they really cheap out on the FALD zones. Hell, even the more expensive televisions tend to favor something between 40 to 50 zones. This M series Quantum has 90 though, and the difference is very much appreciated compared to other televisions I’ve had experience with. You’re still going to get a little blooming, but the bloom isn’t overly bright since this set allegedly tops out at a little over 600 nits, and the size of the bloom area isn’t a distraction. The fact that Vizio are offering a 65” television with 90 zones for under a grand… it’s amazing value and the picture quality is great. The TV is calibrated well enough out of the box as long as you select one of the ‘Calibrated’ modes. There are a couple of complaints, though. One, Dolby Vision looked way too dark on my television… and that’s from a UHD disc. I was experiencing black crush. This can be alleviated by increasing some of the settings, but Dolby Vision is supposed to be sort of an automatic thing, so that’s slightly concerning. I’m sure this can be fixed via firmware in the future though. And my biggest complaint of all is that this television is screwing up how everything is talking to each other in my home theater chain. My AVR does not handle Dolby Vision, so I usually use an HDMI cable from the player to the tv directly for video (HDMI input 1), and then another HDMI to the receiver just for audio. I also run an HDMI cable from the AVR to the TV (HDMI input 2) for all my video game console needs. So what happens is that when I watch a film from my UHD player, I get video from the HDMI 1 input, but no sound. If I switch to HDMI input 2, which is where the AVR is plugged in, I get the audio kicking on from the AVR finally, but obviously then I have no picture. The Vizio basically seems to accept everything active in its HDMI ports, and is trying to be ‘smart’ about how it handles it… but it doesn’t work. I should be able to view a picture on Video 1 and hear that sound that’s fed to my AVR at the same time… but because the Vizio knows that the AVR cable is in HDMI 2, it’s basically telling my receiver not to play sound unless the TV is on Video 2. And this is with all CEC options across the board turned off. If I reintroduce the LG C8 in place of the Vizio M Quantum, it works as intended again, so the Vizio is the problem. I contacted Vizio support via online chat but they refuse to acknowledge that this is an issue with their firmware. But, whatever. I can watch a movie just fine by running a single HDMI from the player to my AVR, and then an HDMI from the AVR to the TV. I still get HDR, I get the lossless audio… I just can’t get Dolby Vision with that configuration, and I’m not looking to upgrade my two year old receiver just to have resolution. But overall, I’m extremely satisfied by what this television delivers for $899 in regards to its picture quality and size. Vizio are really underrated, and with their products, I believe you really do get more than what you pay for. I’m going to use this TV in my home theater for as long as it lasts, which is hopefully a very long time!

I recently moved into a house and decide it was time to start investing in a quality entertainment setup. I knew I wanted a crisp picture with bold colors and something good for watching sports. If you spend just a little bit of time researching TVs you might get overwhelmed with all the lingo - dynamic range, dimming, etc. Skipping past all the tech talk - this TV definitely has a crisp picture, very vivid colors (amazing, really), and smooth movement. They are not kidding about how the quantum technology achieves blacker blacks. Watching the movie 'Widows' recently really delivered visual satisfaction - this is a serious home theater-quality piece of hardware. I've read that this model competes with some of the higher end Samsung and Sony Tvs and I can believe that. You really feel like you are getting a luxury item for half the price. I also like that I can do a voice-activated quick start with Alexa.
