If you watch a lot of movies or gaming is your priority, the TCL Q6 may be a better choice since it performs better in dark rooms and has a higher gaming score. However, while the Vizio V-Series costs a bit less, it excels in cartoon and animation content and has a higher talk and reality TV score. Neither TV is ideal for very bright rooms, but the TCL Q6 performs a bit better in such conditions. Both TVs are quite similar in many other regards, including sound quality and the absence of advanced gaming features like variable refresh rate. Give Feedback

The TCL Q6 (LCD) is good for bright room, while the Vizio V-Series (LCD) is poor.
The TCL Q6 is better suited for bright rooms as it has higher SDR and HDR brightness, enhancing visibility in well-lit environments, while the Vizio V-Series struggles with lower brightness levels under the same conditions. Additionally, the TCL Q6 has a better score for handling reflections than the Vizio V-Series, which means it will reduce the impact of light sources reflecting on the screen.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Vizio V-Series (LCD) to be only fair for movies & TV, while the TCL Q6 (LCD) is poor.
The TCL Q6 struggles with cinematic content largely due to its poor performance in local dimming, which affects its contrast and black uniformity, features crucial for a good movie-watching experience; its colors out of the box also lean towards the poor end, diminishing color accuracy. On the other hand, the Vizio V-Series scores a fair rating in colors out of the box, suggesting better color accuracy, but also has no local dimming feature at all, which means even though it has better contrast technically, it still faces challenges in delivering deep blacks and maintaining black uniformity crucial for movies and cinematic TV.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) and Vizio V-Series (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The TCL Q6 and Vizio V-Series both have fair performance for watching sports, primarily because they have similar capabilities in response time, motion processing, reflections handling, and viewing angles. However, they both exhibit less-than-ideal gray uniformity, which is noticeable during sports with panning shots across the field or court, yet it's not as critical as the other factors mentioned.

The TCL Q6 (LCD) and Vizio V-Series (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The TCL Q6 has fair response time and best input lag, whereas the Vizio V-Series has poor response time and very good input lag; the effectiveness of these factors in gaming varies with individual preferences and sensitivity to screen delays. Both TVs have a refresh rate of 60Hz, which is less suitable for fast-paced gaming that benefits from higher refresh rates.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Vizio V-Series (LCD) to be good for cartoons & animation, while the TCL Q6 (LCD) is only fair.
The Vizio V-Series displays cartoons and animations better than the TCL Q6 because it has superior color performance straight out of the box, which is very important for accurately reproducing the vivid and varied hues typically found in such content. Although the TCL Q6 does well with color gamut and volume, which are also important for a good viewing experience, it doesn't match the Vizio V-Series in its out-of-the-box color accuracy, which gives the latter an edge in this specific viewing context.

The Vizio V-Series (LCD) and TCL Q6 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV.
The TCL Q6 displays news and TV programs well due to its very good upscaling abilities and good SDR brightness, which is beneficial for most content viewing situations. Conversely, the Vizio V-Series exhibits very good upscaling but poor SDR brightness, meaning it might not be as suitable in brightly lit rooms, even though it can make lower resolution content look good on the screen.

"Vizio's cheapest 4K HDR TV packs in a lot for a low price. The voice control via the remote works well, about as well as Roku's version on devices that have it. So if you know your way around a TV menu, or want to be able to dial in the picture even on an inexpensive TV, the Vizio is the better choice"

About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
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.
