There’s a Reddit thread and one over on AVS full of complaints about the most recent fw update that screwed up these TVs.

Yikes, not good.

I've been patiently waiting to replace an OLD 55" Vizio in my basement for one of their newer TVs, but it seems like Costco might not carry them any more. I like buying my Vizios there as they double the manfacturer's warranty and it's easy to just pick up from the store (the Best Buy in my area is awful).

When are we going to get announcements on the new TV models?

All ive seen is an article about this gaming tv they are releasing.

Pretty sure the only new model I've seen from them is the newest M-series.

Thought Vizio tried the Automobile marketing model and announced their 2022 models last year and started selling them in the August-September timeframe. The 2020 models didn't hit most markets until early 2021 and then just skipped 2021 models.

People are still ticked off about the fw screwing up this tv.
Me included.
There is a huge issue when HDR10 is engaged.
It doesn’t work.

Doesn’t look like Vizio is going to offer a fix.
I’m totally regretting buying this tv.

Sucks to hear this, I've been a Vizio fan for a very long time, but it seems they may have lost their way. Will a factory reset help maybe?

No it does not.

Got the newest 65 inch p series for $999. Pretty happy so far but direct tv looks horrendous. What's weired is I got a v series for 500 ish over a year ago and direct tv looks noticeably better. Frustrating.

Presumably you checked all the appropriate settings on the DTV box?

First review I've seen of the 2022 PQX series:

Didn't know they were coming out with a new model. Interesting that it is only available in 85 inches.

RageATL · 05-09-2022, 01:31 PM

It seems the pandemic and presumably supply chain issues really derailed their past few model years.

Moviefan2k4 · 05-14-2022, 10:02 PM

I bought a 65-inch Vizio TV at my local Wal-Mart yesterday, and so far I'm very happy with it. It was a huge pain to get out of the box and set up on my dresser, but thank God my roommate arrived to help me out. I've got many Blu-Rays, so I'm a little conflicted on which ones to view on my new set, but I finished the first Back to the Future a couple of hours ago, and it looked magnificent. I'm thinking of doing a Lord of the Rings marathon tomorrow, but haven't made up my mind.

RageATL · 06-29-2022, 05:48 PM

Looks like my few years old M55Q8-H1 Vizio just took an update to firmware version 1.510.24.2-1.

tcripe · 07-29-2022, 05:44 PM

No new high end TVs for 2023:/

Yep, they're officially toast methinks. I've moved to the 2021 LG C1 which is wildly inexpensive at $1449 at Costco right now.

Vizio seems to have done it again.

They've now added your antenna channels to the WATCHFREE+. Which causes the none digital broadcasts (cable box) to be stretched out with no way to crop or stretch it to fill the screen. As if it weren't bad enough with their slight cropping off of the picture causing the image to be windowed-boxed. Now this. You'd think they would have 1.33:1 (4:3) on the Aspect Ratio, but they don't. And the option to adjust the picture seems to have disappeared.

If anyone has found a way around this or where they have hidden the picture adjusting spot (not Aspect Ratio), please let me know.

A LCOS projector and some DLP projectors offer the legacy 3D feature. Nothing beats a high-end projector.
