![]() As Ryan Gosling and Dave Bautista squared off in the cramped confines of a dimly-lit farmhouse, the dark shadows weren't quite as dark as we've seen on other sets, and the bright highlights of light through the windows or glowing elements on K's eye-scanner weren't quite as vivid as we've seen on the competition.Īnd it's not to say that the contrast is bad or that HDR is entirely absent. Despite the undifferentiated backlight, the Vizio made things look good in the opening scenes of Blade Runner 2049, with crisp detail, even in shadowy scenes. That said, watching movies and video samples on the MQ6 did let us quickly see what the TV did well, and the few areas where it needs to improve. But the HDR limitations are especially disappointing on the Vizio M-Series, since it's one of the few TVs on the market to offer support for both Dolby Vision and HDR10+ formats. That's a bit of a double-edged sword, because it means that black darker images may come out looking a bit more grey, thanks to the backlight, it also means that you get fewer of the distinct halos around bright on-screen objects that so many high-end sets struggle to eliminate. While that's a common cost-cutting move by manufacturers on TVs in this price range, it means that overall contrast won't be as impressive, and high dynamic range (HDR) performance is muted considerably. ![]() The set uses full array backlight but none of the local dimming control that you would see on competitors like the TCL 5-Series Roku TV (S535). ![]() The Vizio MQ6 boasts a 4K panel with quantum dots for better color and a 60Hz refresh rate, all in line with what we consider to be the better end of affordable TVs. Aside from the Wi-Fi, the TV is also outfitted with Bluetooth 5LE, which will let you wirelessly connect headphones or speakers, and also handles connection to the voice-enabled remote control.
