The Vizio P-Series LCD TV offers a better overall viewing experience, especially for gaming, movies, and use in bright rooms. However, it's typically much more expensive than the Vizio D-Series LCD TV. The D-Series is more budget-friendly, but won’t perform as well in dark or bright environments, and it has lower picture quality overall. If cost is a major concern and you have a smaller space, the D-Series could be suitable. For larger spaces and a higher budget, with an emphasis on quality and gaming, the P-Series is the better choice. Give Feedback

Nick Pino | July 2021
"A Full HD TV that has the wits of most 4K TVs at a bottom-barrel price point. It has decent black levels thanks to its full array lighting and the above-par brightness will surprise you. Compared to the competition, the Vizio D-Series is probably the most affordable TV out there from a reputable manufacturer which makes it compelling."

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."
