How about $4,000? If it was 2018, that would be a serious answer, but it’s 2020 and we now have Vizio’s 75-inch P-Series Quantum X, a model that claims to deliver uncompromised HDR performance for just $2,200. Does Vizio’s flagship live up to the company’s ambitious specs? Let’s take a look.
FEATURES
Quantum dots are a main feature in all current M-Series Quantum and higher Vizio sets, so it’s no surprise that they’re present in the flagship P-Series Quantum X. These are nanometer-sized semiconductor particles that, when energized by a blue LED, emit either red or green light depending on their size. The result is a wider color range than what’s offered by LCD sets that have LED-only backlighting.
Vizio’s P-Series Quantum X range offers just two sizes: 65 inches ($1,500) and 75 inches ($2,200). The 75-incher reviewed here is rather heavy at 79 pounds and is supported by legs spaced 57 inches apart. Consequently, a strong, wide table is needed for proper support, with a few inches extra on either side for safety.
Another important feature of the PX75-G1 is its 480-zone full-array local dimming backlight. The set’s native scanning rate is 120Hz. Adding backlight scanning increases this to 240Hz, but the latter is unlikely offer any advantage with any current or anticipated source material. The PX75-G1 is compatible with Dolby Vision, HLG, HDR10 and even HDR10+ high dynamic range, though HDR10+ programs are still thin on the ground.
Many of the more popular apps are available on the Vizio’s Smart- Cast 3.0 main screen, and Chromecast built-in and AirPlay 2 support lets you stream material from your phone or other compatible devices to the TV via your home Wi-Fi. The set can also respond to voice commands via Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa devices.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
