VIZIO M-SERIES 4K UHD TV
vizio.com
Vizio’s M-Series are 60Hz, 3840x2160 (4K UHD), 10-bit TVs.
They offer array backlighting, but no zone dimming until you
hit the MQ7 models (then you get up to 32 zones). They
employ quantum dots for accurate color, and there’s
enough peak brightness to breathe life into HDR titles. It has
a more than adequate selection of ports, including analog
audio and component/composite video. There are three
HDMI 2.1 ports with eARC supported on HDMI 1, as well as
FreeSync and variable refresh rate. Optical S/PDIF, coax (for
antenna or cable), and ethernet are also onboard. Wi-Fi is
802.11n, and there’s Bluetooth 5.0 support.—JON L. JACOBI
