VIZIO VFQ43M-10 43" QLED Smart TV vs Westinghouse 43" FHD Smart TV

The VIZIO is the better picture for the money: a QLED panel with quantum dot color, full-array backlight and HDR10 support beats the Westinghouse's plain LED panel. The Westinghouse is the simpler, more connected set, with three HDMI ports, a voice remote and Xumo TV's free channels. Owners rate both around 4.2 to 4.3, so neither is a reliability standout. Buy the VIZIO for color and contrast; buy the Westinghouse if you want more ports and a basic streaming-first TV.

  • Choose the VIZIO if you care most about picture quality and want QLED color, HDR10 and a gaming menu on a 43-inch set.
  • Choose the Westinghouse if you want three HDMI inputs, a voice remote and Xumo's free live channels without paying for a subscription.

Questions and answers

Which has the better picture, the VIZIO or the Westinghouse?
The VIZIO. Its QLED panel, full-array backlight and HDR10 support give it better color and contrast than the Westinghouse's standard LED panel. Both are 1080p at 60 Hz, so neither is a 4K set.
Which is better for gaming?
The VIZIO. It has Auto Low Latency Mode and a gaming menu that switch on when a console is detected. The Westinghouse lists no game mode, so expect more input lag.
How many devices can I plug in?
The Westinghouse has 3 HDMI ports; the VIZIO has 2. If you run a console, a soundbar and a streaming stick at once, the Westinghouse needs fewer swaps.
Do I need a subscription for free channels?
No on either. The VIZIO has WatchFree+ and the Westinghouse has Xumo Play with 350+ free live channels. Both also carry the major paid apps like Netflix and Disney+.
Which is easier to wall-mount?
The VIZIO. It weighs 13.14 lb with the stand and uses a common 200 x 100 VESA pattern. The Westinghouse is heavier at 22.9 lb, so check your mount's rating.
Is the VIZIO worth stepping up to over the Westinghouse?
Yes if picture quality and gaming matter most. Pick the Westinghouse instead if you need a third HDMI port or prefer the Xumo interface and voice remote.
