VIZIO VHQ32M-10 32" QLED Smart TV vs Element 32" 720p Roku TV

Both are small 720p 32-inch sets, so the picture is the same class either way. The VIZIO adds QLED quantum-dot color, HDR, full-array LED backlighting and Bluetooth headphone support, and its 4.2 rating across 1,528 ratings is solid. The Element runs Roku, the smoother and better-stocked smart platform, and gives you a third HDMI port. Buy the VIZIO for the better panel and headphone listening; buy the Element for the easier interface and more inputs.

  • Choose the VIZIO if you want the better picture for the size, HDR support and Bluetooth headphones for late-night viewing.
  • Choose the Element if Roku's interface and channel lineup matter more to you than panel tech, or you need three HDMI inputs.

What reviewers say

VIZIO VHQ32M-10 32" QLED Smart TV

  • 4.2 / 51,528 ratings

Rated 4.2 out of 5 from 1,528 ratings, buyers generally see this as a good small TV with better color than expected for a budget set. Complaints center on the 720p picture and limited inputs rather than reliability.

What people mention
  • Picture qualityMixedBuyers like the color from the QLED panel but note 720p looks soft on a 32-inch screen.
  • ValuePraisedOwners say it delivers more than expected for a budget 32-inch TV.
  • SetupPraisedReviewers describe quick setup and easy sign-in to streaming apps.
  • SoundCriticisedThe built-in speakers are called thin, with a soundbar suggested for movies.

Element 32" 720p Roku TV

Owners of small Element Roku sets generally treat them as simple, affordable secondary TVs that are easy to set up and use. Praise centers on the Roku interface and light build; complaints tend to be about picture sharpness and sound on a 720p panel.

What people mention
  • Picture qualityMixedOwners find the 720p image fine for casual viewing but soft next to full HD sets.
  • Roku platformPraisedReviewers like the familiar Roku home screen and the free live TV channels.
  • SoundCriticisedThe 8W speakers are described as thin, with little bass at higher volumes.
  • SetupPraisedBuyers say it is ready to watch quickly with little configuration.

Questions and answers

Which has the better picture?
The VIZIO. Its QLED panel, full-array backlight and HDR support produce richer color and better contrast than the Element's standard LCD. Both top out at 720p, so neither is sharp for close-up viewing.
Is Roku better than VIZIO OS?
Roku is generally easier to navigate and carries more apps and free live channels. VIZIO OS covers the major services and adds free channels of its own, so the gap is smaller than it once was.
Which is better for a bedroom?
Either works at this size. The VIZIO wins if you watch with headphones, since Bluetooth headphone support is confirmed. The Element wins if you want the simplest remote and interface.
Do I need three HDMI ports?
Only if you run a console, a streaming stick and a cable box at once. Two ports on the VIZIO cover a typical setup; the Element's third port saves you from swapping cables.
Is the step up to the VIZIO worth it?
Yes if picture quality and HDR matter to you at this size. Skip it if you mainly care about the smart interface, where Roku is the stronger choice.
Which lasts longer?
Neither brand publishes a lifespan figure, and both are budget sets with similar 60Hz panels. The VIZIO's larger owner base gives you more long-term reliability reports to judge by.
