The Samsung Q70A may cost slightly less and offers better gaming performance and viewing angles. It's well-suited for gaming and various TV content but might not be the best in dark rooms due to its lower performance there. The Vizio P-Series is slightly more expensive but performs better in both dark and bright rooms. It excels in movie watching and has better sound quality, which could enhance your experience if you don't have a separate sound system. However, it's not as strong for sports content and has a narrower viewing angle. Choose the Samsung Q70A if gaming is a priority and you're looking for a more budget-friendly option. Opt for the Vizio P-Series if you're willing to pay more for a better movie-watching experience and overall picture quality in varied lighting conditions. Give Feedback

Tom's guide

Brian Westover | October 2021
"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 Samsung

Samsung, a South Korean electronics manufacturer, holds the title of being the largest global TV vendor in terms of units sold. They offer a diverse lineup of TV products that cater to various budget ranges. A notable achievement in recent years is the development of Quantum Dots, a technology that enhances color reproduction, resulting in richer and more vibrant hues. Samsung TVs are well-regarded for their high manufacturing quality and user-friendly software, making them an excellent choice for consumers seeking an intuitive viewing experience.

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.
