Choosing between the Vizio P-Series and the Hisense UX comes down to your priorities. The Vizio offers a good balance of picture quality and gaming performance at a midrange price, making it suitable for most living room environments, especially if you're not in a very bright room and don't need top-tier performance for movies or animation. It's also a solid choice for sports and news content. On the other hand, the Hisense UX is a high-end option with superior HDR performance, better color accuracy, and a larger screen size, which is great for an immersive movie-watching experience, especially in a dark room. It also has better motion handling and sound quality, with a built-in voice command feature for convenience. However, it comes at a higher price point and isn't as strong in viewing angles or bright room performance. If you're looking for the best home theater experience and are willing to invest more, the Hisense UX is the way to go. But if you want a more budget-friendly option that still delivers good overall performance for a variety of content, the Vizio P-Series is a smart choice. Give Feedback

The Hisense UX (LCD) is very good for movies & TV, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good.
The Hisense UX excels in watching movies and cinematic TV due to its excellent local dimming, black uniformity, and color volume, contributing to high contrast and rich, immersive scenes especially in darker content. In comparison, while the Vizio P-Series also has good contrast, its lower performance in local dimming and black uniformity, alongside somewhat lower color volume, may result in less striking dark scenes and slightly less vibrant colors for movie watching.

The Hisense UX (LCD) is very good for gaming, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good.
The Hisense UX has a very good response time and good input lag, making it very responsive for gaming, and its 120Hz screen provides smooth motion. In comparison, the Vizio P-Series also features a 120Hz screen but has a fair response time and good input lag, which means it's slightly less responsive than the Hisense UX during fast-paced games.

The Hisense UX (LCD) is excellent for cartoons & animation, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good.
The Hisense UX exhibits vibrant and accurate colors straight out of the box with a very wide color gamut, which enhances the vividness of cartoons and animations; its superior color volume ensures that these intense colors maintain their quality across a range of brightness levels. On the other hand, the Vizio P-Series also demonstrates good color performance out of the box and a very good color gamut, but might not match the Hisense in terms of color richness and vibrancy, especially in scenes with various brightness levels due to its slightly lower color volume.

The Hisense UX (LCD) is very good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good.
The Hisense UX delivers better upscaling of low-resolution content and has higher SDR brightness, making it very good for watching news and TV shows, which often don't come in high-definition. The Vizio P-Series, while still good for watching such content, has slightly less capable upscaling and lower SDR brightness, but considering its price point, it offers a respectable performance in these aspects.

The Hisense UX (LCD) is best in class for bright room, while the Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good.
The Hisense UX outperforms the Vizio P-Series in handling bright rooms due to its superior SDR and HDR brightness, enhancing visibility in well-lit environments, and better reflection handling, which effectively reduces glare. Although both TVs offer high contrast and large color volumes which are beneficial for maintaining image quality, the Hisense UX's ability to retain picture brightness gives it a noticeable advantage in bright room conditions.

The Hisense UX (LCD) and Vizio P-Series (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Hisense UX has a very good response time which is beneficial for sports watching as it reduces motion blur, but its restricted viewing angle can hinder the experience from off-center positions. The Vizio P-Series, while having only fair response time leading to more noticeable blur with fast-moving objects, also suffers in viewing angles, making both less ideal for large groups spread around the room. Both TVs handle reflections very well, which is valuable in bright rooms; however, they have only fair to good gray uniformity which could affect the picture quality on certain scenes like a clear sky or a sports field.

"We were even more pleased to see that performance had improved across the board, with the display offering better color, brightness, and shorter lag times than the already excellent Roku model. Color accuracy was great right out of the box. The TCL 5-Series Google TV becomes a great option for demanding gamers."

About Hisense
Hisense, a Chinese TV manufacturer, entered the US market in approximately 2011 and has since acquired TV divisions from various companies such as Toshiba, Sharp, Hitachi, and NEC. Currently ranking as the fourth largest vendor in terms of sales volume, Hisense aims to capture a wide range of TV budget segments. They offer exceptional value with TVs that often outperform their competitors at similar price points, making them a compelling choice for consumers. In the US, they use Google TV as their smart TV software which provides the largest app selection and a very modern user interface, however it is not as user friendly as the software from other vendors.
About Vizio
Vizio is an American company. While they initially gained recognition for offering budget-friendly TVs, they have successfully expanded their product lineup to include high-end options as well. They manufacture TVs primarily in Mexico, China, and Vietnam. Similar to many Korean TV brands, Vizio developed its own smart TV software called SmartCast. In the past, SmartCast was not the best smart TV software, but it has evolved so that it is now good for using your TV and connecting to streaming services.
