TCL 6 Series/R646 2021 QLED vs Vizio MQ7-J Series

On the flip side, TCL’s Roku TVs support Apple’s AirPlay 2 and HomeKit protocols, but that’s not true of the Google TV models.

Not the best experience. Roku's grid of apps is simple and familiar, and if you want your homepage to show more relevant programming, Google TV does a much better job. I'd recommend Vizio owners connect a streamer, like a Roku Express Plus 4K or Chromecast with Google TV, and forget Vizio's system. David Katzmaier/CNETIn its favor, SmartCast plays well with phones -- you can easily cast video and photos from Android or Apple phones using Chromecast and AirPlay, respectively -- as well as smart speakers like Echo and Nest, which you can use to command the TV hands-free

It has a decent frequency response with a well-balanced sound profile that delivers clear dialogue. It gets very loud, with very little distortion, even at max volume.

On both the sound pops and crackles and cuts out entirely as some sort of noise-gating - wish I had read more reviews before I bought it and saved myself the time because it looks like a longstanding issue that vizio refuses to care enough about to patch, essentially the tv intentially cuts out ambient noise in scenes so you lose lots of atmospheric sound. There are workarounds with soundbars but for that much money I don't want to need a workaround. Don't know much about the rest, but avoid the M-Series at all costs.

This should no longer be an issue when I get my new receiver, but definitely a negative.

As a TV it's great. As a smart home device with Alexa it's a failure. Vizio needs to get their act together. From what I found out, this issue has been going on for a long time

adjustment in picture,sound, motion clarity,action smoothing, color temp took awhile..UI is easy and the remote is great, just need to get rid of the netflix,disney,hulu,and sling shortcut buttons.

SO-SO: 1) The main interface "SmartCast" doesn't want to load every so often, requiring a reboot. 2) The mobile remote app looks promising, but doesn't consistently turn on the TV, so you still need the physical remote handy. 3) WatchFree+ has an issue playing adds, where it starts to play the first few seconds of each add, then restarts the add so you hear the first few seconds again. It does this for every

In this age of instant responses, this OS is not. Moving between videos and selecting one; or another provider is like watching the little clock go around 4 or 5 times.

1, eARC, and Dolby Vision feature. What I don’t like is the processing power behind accommodating these features. Latency when enabling/disabling features like Dolby Vision or HDR10 from input devices AND Vizio’s own internal apps which wastes my time and frustrates me. Also dislike that Vizio OS does not give you the option to uninstall those apps you don’t like

When you first turn it on, you have to pair the remote to the TV. The remote barely worked, I had to press the button 10 times to get it to do anything. It took me over 10 minutes to enter my email address. I even tried new batteries

Sometimes the Apple Remote turns on TV, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes the Vizio remote works. Sometimes it doesn't. I've had to call Vizio Customer Service 4x in two weeks to assist
