The Vizio MQ6 '23 boasts better overall picture quality, color performance, and local dimming which enhances contrast — beneficial for movie experiences. It supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, which can improve HDR content, making it a good choice if you enjoy high dynamic range movies or gaming. Additionally, it has slightly better sound quality and voice command features. On the other hand, the Vizio V-Series '22, while offering lower picture quality and without local dimming, supports HDR formats like its counterpart and has a better response time, which could be preferable for fast-paced gaming. It also has slightly more powerful speakers but lacks voice commands. Give Feedback

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) is good for movies & TV, while the Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) is poor.
The Vizio MQ6 '23 provides a better experience for movies and cinematic TV thanks to better local dimming, higher black uniformity, and more accurate colors out of the box compared to the Vizio V-Series '22, which has no local dimming and lower black uniformity, resulting in less impressive contrast and overall picture quality. Additionally, while both TVs have a similar contrast ratio, the better local dimming on the MQ6 '23 allows for darker scenes to appear with more depth, further enhancing the viewing experience for darker, cinema-style content.

The Vizio MQ6 '23 (LCD) and Vizio V-Series '22 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The Vizio MQ6 '23 has fair capabilities in motion processing which is essential for watching sports smoothly, but its reflections handling is just good, meaning it might struggle in very bright rooms. Comparatively, the Vizio V-Series '22 also has fair motion processing, though not as competent as the MQ6, and shares similar performance on reflections handling, making them both fair choices for sports but with limitations in bright environments.
