If you're on a budget, the Vizio D-Series '22 might appeal to you as it costs significantly less than the P-Series. However, it falls short in many areas including gaming, bright room performance, and sound quality. On the other hand, the P-Series offers a much better experience for a variety of content including movies, sports, and gaming, especially in bright rooms due to its superior brightness and reflection handling. The P-Series also supports more advanced HDR formats like Dolby Vision, which can be important if you watch a lot of movies or stream content that offers these features. If you play video games, the P-Series with its better response time and gaming features might be worth the extra cost. If you primarily watch cartoons and don't need advanced features, the D-Series should suffice. 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."
