Unfortunately, unlike the 2017 M-Series, the new 2018 panels do not provide wide color gamut capabilities. HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG are all supported as well with a peak brightness of 600 nits.

Full array local dimming specs range from the 32-zone 55-incher to the 40-zone 65-incher to the 48-zone 70-incher. Units are now available through VIZIO and are set to expand to more retailers soon.įurther improving contrast and brightness capabilities along with some added aesthetic design perks, the 2018 M-Series includes 4K HDR models with VA panels ranging in size from 55-inches to 70-inches and price from $700 to $1,500. In person, the 65-inch model looked rather nice, though the viewing conditions and content being played didn't really allow for any kind of in-depth evaluation.

Sadly, however, the series still does not offer wide color gamut coverage. Likewise, brightness performance has also been given a notable improvement over 2017's E-Series, with a new peak brightness capability of 400 nits. HDR10 high dynamic range support is included as well, and new for this year's lineup, the E-Series also provides Dolby Vision and HLG playback. The displays all feature full array local dimming with the number of zones ranging from 10 to 16 depending on the screen size.

Offering a few key performance upgrades over the D-Series, the new 2018 E-Series features 4K HDR TV models with VA panels (and some IPS for select sizes) ranging in size from 43-inches to 75-inches and price from $350 to $1,600. Units are now available through VIZIO and are set to expand to more retailers soon. With that said, the panels do not offer wide color gamut coverage. HDR10 and HLG high dynamic range formats are also supported with an output of about 200 to 300 nits. The 4K HDR units all feature direct-lit LED backlights but do not offer any kind of local dimming capabilities. The D-Series includes 4K HDR Smart TVs ranging in size from 43-inches to 70-inches and price from $350 to $1,000, along with several standard HDTV models as well. While the lineup actually starts with the entry-level D-Series, the company did not have any of those units on hand, preferring to instead highlight the other step-up models. And though the repeating reels were fairly brief and the units were not fully calibrated, all of the TVs offered a punchy and eye-catching picture that left a strong first impression. To kick off the event, VIZIO had its new 65-inch E-Series, M-Series, P-Series, and P-Series Quantum displays all hung up on a wall together in a dim room while various demo clips of bright, colorful HDR imagery played across each screen.


Highlighting a couple key picture and smart TV functions, the event featured a few demos revealing some of the differences between each series, along with a head-to-head comparison with a competing TV from another brand, pitting a new P Series Quantum model against one of LG's flagship OLED displays. And unlike the 2017 lineup which was comprised of "displays" without tuners, all of the 2018 models are now proper "TVs" with integrated TV tuners, allowing users to watch OTA broadcasts with a separate digital antenna. Offering expanded SmartCast options, improved HDR brightness performance, and more refined designs all across the board, these 2018 display models maintain VIZIO's celebrated emphasis on bang-for-your-buck quality, providing features like full array local dimming and Dolby Vision at very competitive prices. Held at the New York Edition Hotel in NYC, the event spotlighted the company's latest P-Series, M-Series, and E-Series 4K HDR TVs, along with its new Dolby Atmos sound bar systems. Earlier this week, High-Def Digest attended VIZIO's 2018 Spring Showcase.
