After taking a look at it at CES 2020, Vizio's full lineup of 2020 TVs has finally arrived, bringing new versions of the popular V-series, M-series, P-series, and its first OLED series. It's a huge collection this year that runs the gamut of sizes and specs, and should have something for every type of TV buyer. Well, okay, just about any type of TV buyer. Missing 8K TVs in this year's lineup. In fact, Vizio is focused on providing quality TVs at affordable prices and while there are a few high-end TVs in the range, most of what you'll see this year are 4K HDR TVs that are under $1000 rather than monstrous sets of 8K. A good example is the new OLED series which honestly might be the cheapest OLED to hit stores later this year and the new versions of the Vizio Quantum X P series which is one of the brightest TVs around. available to consumers at a fraction of the cost of Samsung QLED displays. Not sure where to start with Vizio's 2020 TV lineup? Let us help you analyze it.
Vizio TV Technology 2020
The biggest addition to Vizio's AV arsenal in 2020 is its new OLED TVs arriving later this year in two sizes: 55-inch and 65-inch. Not only are they the first the company has produced, but at just €1,299 for the 55-inch version, they could be the cheapest OLEDs on the market. We'll see what LG and Sony have to say on this when we get the final price of the LG BX OLED and when the Sony A8H gets its first inevitable price drop, but for now, things look promising for Vizio. It's true that 90% of the TVs Vizio makes for 2020 are still full-illuminated LED-LCDs. Vizio is one of the few companies that tells consumers the exact number of contrast control zones on each of its TVs, making it easier to predict the type of contrast to expect, which we really appreciate. Internally, Vizio equips the vast majority of its TVs with its new IQ Ultra processor that helps SmartCast 4.0 run faster and improves HD upconversion. We'll have to see it in action before we can say how it'll compare to LG's Alpha a9 and a7 III processors, but again, on paper, it all looks great. Finally, gamers can expect better frame rates on Vizio TVs in 2020 thanks to VRR support via HDMI 2.1 and Vizio's new ProGaming engine that provides faster response time and input lag. lower for M and P series and Quantum X for P series.

(Image credit: Vizio) Vizio OLED (H1 series) The Vizio OLED could be one of the most exciting TVs of the year. It promises to cut the price of OLED screens by at least $300 here in the United States if you plan to buy a 55-inch model, and even more if you have a 65-inch screen size in mind. . In terms of specs, Vizio's OLED will use Vizio's new IQ Ultra picture processor and support VRR up to 120Hz. Vizio says the TV covers 98% of the DCI-P3 color space, but it's limited to only about 800 nits of maximum brightness. Unlike the other 2020 Vizio TVs that are available starting in late June, we'll only get the Vizio OLED in the fall (September to November). By then LG will have its BX OLED available and the Sony A8H OLED will be several months ahead. Still, if you can last a few more months, you can save a lot of money on an OLED. US model names: Vizio OLED55-H1 (€1,299), OLED65-H1 (€1,999)

(Image credit: Vizio) Vizio P-Series Quantum and P-Series Quantum X (Q9-H1 and QX-H1) At the top of Vizio's LED-LCD offerings are the Vizio P-Series Quantum and Vizio P -Series Quantum X, which have returned for the second year in a row. The P-series Quantum X is certainly the more formidable of the two, especially given its incredible maximum brightness, and will be available from June for €1,499. There are three sizes to choose from (65, 75 and 85 inches) and all use the new IQ Ultra picture processor and VRR up to 120Hz. The 65 and 85 inch TVs reach a maximum brightness of 3000 nits and respectively use 384 or 792 local dimming zones, while the 75-inch version only hits 2800 nits with 480 local dimming zones. Stepping down to the regular Vizio P-Series Quantum, you'll still get the IQ Ultra image processor and VRR up to 120Hz, but take a big hit in terms of brightness (it's only 1200 nits) and local dimming zones (200 or 240, respectively, for sizes 65 and 75 inches). That said, the regular P Quantum series is cheaper than the P Quantum X series, and you can save around $300 by choosing lower-quality screens. All TVs in the range, with the exception of the 85-inch P-series Quantum X, will be available at the end of June with the latter available in the fall, around the time of the Vizio OLED. US model names: Vizio P65QX-H1 (€1,499), Vizio P75QX-H1 (€1,999), Vizio P85QX-H1 (€2,999), Vizio P65Q9-H1 (€1,199), Vizio P75Q9-H1 (€1,699)

(Image credit: Vizio) Vizio M-Series (Q8 and Q7) As you move up the range, things get even more complicated; For example, like last year, you'll find two different versions of the M series that are very different. Both only have a native 60Hz refresh rate and use the Active IQ image processor, but that's where the similarities end. The better of the two series is the Vizio M-Series Q8, which is only available in a 55- or 65-inch screen. Both have 90 zones of contrast control, much less than the P-series models but much more than the Q7 M-series models, and they use the IQ Active image processor instead of the IQ Ultra you'll find. in high-end models. Then there's the Vizio M-Series Q7 which is available in 50, 55 and 65 inches with either 16 or 30 contrast control zones. They also use the IQ Active image processor and, depending on the specifications provided by Vizio, hit between 400 and 600 nits of maximum brightness. That being said, they are ultra-affordable and will be selling very well on Black Friday this year. US model names: Vizio M55Q8-H1 (€549), Vizio M65Q8-H1 (€749), Vizio M50Q7-H1 (€399), Vizio M55Q7-H1 (€499), Vizio M65Q7-H1 (€699)

It's Vizio's umbrella term to describe any TV that looks like this framework, and is therefore made up of several different models, all of which use full lighting and the IQ Active processor. The good news is that all of the TVs below support four types of HDR (HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG) and while they aren't the most advanced in terms of specs, they offer a 70-inch screen size that costs just £ 659.
