The Samsung The Frame 2022 is typically much less expensive than the Vizio P-Series and is a better choice if you're on a budget and want a TV with artistic design meant to blend with home decor. However, it does not perform as well as the Vizio P-Series in a dark room. The Vizio P-Series is typically much more expensive, but it's a better choice for a premium home theater experience, especially for gaming due to a higher refresh rate and better handling of fast-moving content. Its larger size also makes it suitable for bigger spaces. Both TVs may not be the best for very bright rooms. The Vizio has better sound quality and a higher number of HDMI ports, which may be important if you have multiple devices to connect. Give Feedback

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) is only fair.
The Samsung The Frame 2022 has lower contrast, less effective local dimming, and poorer black uniformity compared to the Vizio P-Series, which diminishes its movie and cinematic TV watching experience, particularly in dark scenes. On the other hand, the Vizio P-Series boasts a higher contrast ratio, better local dimming, and superior black uniformity which enhances its performance for movies and cinematic content, making it better suited for viewers seeking a more immersive experience in such scenarios.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is good for gaming, while the Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) is poor.
The Samsung The Frame 2022 exhibits the highest performance in response time, making it exceptionally quick in moving image changes, which is critical for gaming, but its input lag — the delay between a command input and the screen's reaction — is only fair, which can be a disadvantage in fast-paced games. In contrast, the Vizio P-Series may not match The Frame's response time, but with good input lag performance, it offers a more responsive gaming experience, which might be more noticeable during gameplay where timing is crucial.

The Vizio P-Series (LCD) is very good for bright room, while the Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) is good.
The Vizio P-Series excels in bright room conditions due to its higher SDR and HDR brightness and better handling of reflections, while Samsung The Frame offers a unique aesthetic with its frame design but doesn't get as bright nor handle reflections as effectively. If bright room performance is paramount, consider the Vizio, but if design and doubling as wall art is a priority, Samsung The Frame might be the better choice, keeping in mind that contrast, color volume, and color gamut are also better on the Vizio.

The Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) and Vizio P-Series (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Samsung The Frame 2022 has good motion processing and excellent response time, making it suitable for fast-moving sports scenes, but it has limited viewing angles which can be a drawback in wider seating arrangements. On the other hand, the Vizio P-Series handles reflections very well, beneficial for brightly-lit rooms, but its motion processing isn't as refined as the Samsung's, which could result in blur during fast sports action.

The Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) and Vizio P-Series (LCD) are both good for news, talk, & other TV.
The Samsung The Frame 2022 excels in upscaling lower resolution content and has very good SDR brightness, which makes it well-suited for watching news and TV programs, even though its contrast and color performance out of the box are just good. In comparison, the Vizio P-Series also offers very good SDR brightness and better local dimming, which enhances contrast, making it another strong contender for daytime viewing and general TV programming, albeit it may not upscale content as proficiently as the Samsung.

How the Samsung The Frame 2022 (LCD) and the Vizio P-Series (LCD) compare to other TVs
"The biggest, and most jarring, difference is the revolutionary matte, anti-glare coating on the 2022’s display. Not only does it solve my daytime glare problem of being in a corner apartment, but it somehow adds texture to anything being displayed. The Frame is a home run for anyone looking to add fashion to their function."
"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."
