1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,080
people are always asking me why sandals

2
00:00:03,679 --> 00:00:09,280
and to them i say why not i mean they're not the most stylish

3
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:12,880
things ever but they're convenient reasonably priced and they even have

4
00:00:11,519 --> 00:00:16,320
pretty decent grip for when i have to walk my trash cans down my slippery

5
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:23,359
driveway and so it is with the px65 vizio's new

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:25,359
flagship p series quantum x tv for 2019

7
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:31,359
with a butt load of premium features for just 2200

8
00:00:27,599 --> 00:00:35,520
this might just be the premium 65-inch

9
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:37,280
sandal of tvs and i absolutely love it

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:42,640
speaking of things i love private internet access that's exactly what

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:46,320
you'll get with pia a safe and protected ip and it's got loads of other features

12
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:51,920
as well check it out at the link in the video description

13
00:00:55,039 --> 00:01:03,359
don't be deceived by the px65 all plastic chassis tacky industrial design

14
00:01:00,559 --> 00:01:08,320
or bargain feeling buttons because this puppy has all the features you'd expect

15
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:13,200
in a flagship display from a samsung or sony

16
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:14,960
and then some at a purported 3 000 nits

17
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:18,799
it doesn't just have the highest peak brightness of any display to reach our

18
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:23,520
studio it's actually one of the brightest if not the brightest set on

19
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:28,159
the market now it's hard for us to actually measure this because companies

20
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:33,040
often exaggerate these numbers and our testing equipment isn't sensitive beyond

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:37,439
1300 nits but what i can tell you guys is that when it's cranked it is really

22
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:41,680
bright like to the point where most people are probably going to leave it at

23
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:46,960
the default 50 now the purpose of all of those lumens of course is HDR and

24
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:52,000
thankfully the px65 is certified for both hdr10 and dolby vision so you get

25
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:58,880
nice bright peaks when you're looking into a light or a fire but also dark and

26
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:02,799
detailed blacks thanks to the px65 full

27
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:06,159
array local dimming across 384 zones or

28
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:08,560
actually 480 zones on the 75 inch model

29
00:02:06,159 --> 00:02:13,120
in either case the zones are just over five inches square or about this big

30
00:02:12,239 --> 00:02:18,560
now that still looks pretty big but thing is

31
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:23,760
in a side by side comparison with samsung's top of the line q9f that first

32
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:30,319
launched at 3 800 and an lg OLED the px65 obviously

33
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:35,040
couldn't reach OLED levels of black but it did achieve noticeably lower lows

34
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:39,440
than the more expensive samsung and that's really saying a lot out of the

35
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:44,239
box we did find the active full arrays default medium setting to be a little

36
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:48,640
intense leading to unpleasant halos around white objects on black

37
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,840
backgrounds but turning it down to low took the edge off quite nicely albeit at

38
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,000
the expense of some dynamic range i'm glad we're at least given the option

39
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:01,519
though but HDR is about more than just light

40
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:06,159
and dark you also need a wide color gamut and like last year vizio is again

41
00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:10,400
offering some of the most affordable quantum dot displays around for the

42
00:03:08,159 --> 00:03:15,519
uninitiated today's quantum dot displays use a thin film of particles to greatly

43
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:20,159
increase color accuracy and reproduction one thing to note about quantum dot or

44
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:24,480
any wide color gamut tv though is that unlike a monitor which can be used for

45
00:03:22,239 --> 00:03:29,360
both content consumption and for professional work or content creation

46
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:33,120
tvs are designed only for content consumption and in particular have been

47
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:37,040
designed to display content that meets broadcast standards

48
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:41,519
so while a color accurate monitor can display a wide color gamut all the time

49
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:47,280
regardless of whether you're using photoshop or firefox a tv like this one

50
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:52,879
will only kick into wide color gamut mode when it receives an HDR signal

51
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:57,680
otherwise it'll use the narrower rec.709 color space because there is no wide

52
00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:02,480
color gamut sdr content technical reasons for it aside we really enjoyed

53
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:07,120
our time with the px65 and that wasn't just limited to passive entertainment it

54
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:10,400
happens to be a great tv for gaming as well because it retains all the

55
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:16,239
capabilities that earned its predecessor a spot on displaylag.com's best gaming

56
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:18,720
tvs of 2018 list now in the standard

57
00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:24,400
modes the input lag is actually pretty bad but you can cut it in half by

58
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:26,960
switching on game low latency then if

59
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:32,080
you specifically use HDMI port number five your signal will bypass all the

60
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:35,840
unnecessary processing having your input lag yet again now that sounds wicked at

61
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:41,440
first but there are some drawbacks while this

62
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:47,759
port does handle 4k resolution or even 1080p at a native 120 hertz refresh rate

63
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:49,600
it is not HDR compatible so console

64
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:53,199
gamers are gonna have to choose between minimizing their input lag and playing

65
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:57,199
games in HDR poop also if you have more than one

66
00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:02,080
console well you're kind of screwed again because only HDMI number five is

67
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:07,280
low latency though if you're that into it a separate HDMI switch is an option

68
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:11,199
so then should you switch to this tv well it actually makes a pretty

69
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:15,440
compelling argument with a calibrated mode out of the box

70
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:20,320
built-in chromecast ultra and airplay 2 support for 4k streaming from your phone

71
00:05:17,919 --> 00:05:24,560
and a motion blur reducing clear action mode that doesn't impact the screen

72
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:30,479
brightness as much as other tvs i mean the px65 is a bonafide flagship lcd

73
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:36,160
without an outrageous price tag with that said it is only a couple

74
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:41,120
hundred dollars less than an entry-level OLED of the same size

75
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:46,240
so then if straight up dark theatre room movie enjoyment is your bag i gotta give

76
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:50,880
the nod to the OLED but i also have to acknowledge that due to OLED's issues

77
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:55,840
with image retention and overall longevity if you're more into sports

78
00:05:53,759 --> 00:06:01,280
watching or gaming this one is worth a serious look

79
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:06,000
speaking of being worth a look our sponsor ifixit ifixit's essential
