Our take on the VIZIO Quantum 4K QLED HDR Smart TV 55-inch

The VIZIO Quantum is a 4K QLED smart TV aimed at everyday movie, streaming and casual gaming use. Its quantum-dot panel supports the major HDR formats, and VIZIO OS bundles WatchFree+ free channels, AirPlay 2 and Cast. It competes with budget QLED sets from TCL and Hisense on picture value, but its 60 Hz panel and three HDMI ports trail gaming-focused rivals. Reviewers generally rate its color and brightness for the money while noting weaker motion handling and average built-in sound.
