00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.080
people are always asking me why sandals

00:00:03.679 --> 00:00:09.280
and to them i say why not i mean they're not the most stylish

00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:12.880
things ever but they're convenient reasonably priced and they even have

00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.320
pretty decent grip for when i have to walk my trash cans down my slippery

00:00:14.639 --> 00:00:23.359
driveway and so it is with the px65 vizio's new

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:25.359
flagship p series quantum x tv for 2019

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:31.359
with a butt load of premium features for just 2200

00:00:27.599 --> 00:00:35.520
this might just be the premium 65-inch

00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:37.280
sandal of tvs and i absolutely love it

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:42.640
speaking of things i love private internet access that's exactly what

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

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:51.920
as well check it out at the link in the video description

00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:03.359
don't be deceived by the px65 all plastic chassis tacky industrial design

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:08.320
or bargain feeling buttons because this puppy has all the features you'd expect

00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:13.200
in a flagship display from a samsung or sony

00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:14.960
and then some at a purported 3 000 nits

00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:18.799
it doesn't just have the highest peak brightness of any display to reach our

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:23.520
studio it's actually one of the brightest if not the brightest set on

00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:28.159
the market now it's hard for us to actually measure this because companies

00:01:26.240 --> 00:01:33.040
often exaggerate these numbers and our testing equipment isn't sensitive beyond

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

00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:41.680
bright like to the point where most people are probably going to leave it at

00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:46.960
the default 50 now the purpose of all of those lumens of course is HDR and

00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:52.000
thankfully the px65 is certified for both hdr10 and dolby vision so you get

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

00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:02.799
detailed blacks thanks to the px65 full

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:06.159
array local dimming across 384 zones or

00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.560
actually 480 zones on the 75 inch model

00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:13.120
in either case the zones are just over five inches square or about this big

00:02:12.239 --> 00:02:18.560
now that still looks pretty big but thing is

00:02:16.720 --> 00:02:23.760
in a side by side comparison with samsung's top of the line q9f that first

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:30.319
launched at 3 800 and an lg OLED the px65 obviously

00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:35.040
couldn't reach OLED levels of black but it did achieve noticeably lower lows

00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:39.440
than the more expensive samsung and that's really saying a lot out of the

00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:44.239
box we did find the active full arrays default medium setting to be a little

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:48.640
intense leading to unpleasant halos around white objects on black

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:53.840
backgrounds but turning it down to low took the edge off quite nicely albeit at

00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:56.000
the expense of some dynamic range i'm glad we're at least given the option

00:02:55.200 --> 00:03:01.519
though but HDR is about more than just light

00:02:59.040 --> 00:03:06.159
and dark you also need a wide color gamut and like last year vizio is again

00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:10.400
offering some of the most affordable quantum dot displays around for the

00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:15.519
uninitiated today's quantum dot displays use a thin film of particles to greatly

00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:20.159
increase color accuracy and reproduction one thing to note about quantum dot or

00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:24.480
any wide color gamut tv though is that unlike a monitor which can be used for

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:29.360
both content consumption and for professional work or content creation

00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:33.120
tvs are designed only for content consumption and in particular have been

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:37.040
designed to display content that meets broadcast standards

00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:41.519
so while a color accurate monitor can display a wide color gamut all the time

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:47.280
regardless of whether you're using photoshop or firefox a tv like this one

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:52.879
will only kick into wide color gamut mode when it receives an HDR signal

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:57.680
otherwise it'll use the narrower rec.709 color space because there is no wide

00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:02.480
color gamut sdr content technical reasons for it aside we really enjoyed

00:03:59.760 --> 00:04:07.120
our time with the px65 and that wasn't just limited to passive entertainment it

00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:10.400
happens to be a great tv for gaming as well because it retains all the

00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:16.239
capabilities that earned its predecessor a spot on displaylag.com's best gaming

00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:18.720
tvs of 2018 list now in the standard

00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:24.400
modes the input lag is actually pretty bad but you can cut it in half by

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:26.960
switching on game low latency then if

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:32.080
you specifically use HDMI port number five your signal will bypass all the

00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:35.840
unnecessary processing having your input lag yet again now that sounds wicked at

00:04:34.880 --> 00:04:41.440
first but there are some drawbacks while this

00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:47.759
port does handle 4k resolution or even 1080p at a native 120 hertz refresh rate

00:04:44.320 --> 00:04:49.600
it is not HDR compatible so console

00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:53.199
gamers are gonna have to choose between minimizing their input lag and playing

00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.199
games in HDR poop also if you have more than one

00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:02.080
console well you're kind of screwed again because only HDMI number five is

00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:07.280
low latency though if you're that into it a separate HDMI switch is an option

00:05:04.880 --> 00:05:11.199
so then should you switch to this tv well it actually makes a pretty

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:15.440
compelling argument with a calibrated mode out of the box

00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:20.320
built-in chromecast ultra and airplay 2 support for 4k streaming from your phone

00:05:17.919 --> 00:05:24.560
and a motion blur reducing clear action mode that doesn't impact the screen

00:05:22.080 --> 00:05:30.479
brightness as much as other tvs i mean the px65 is a bonafide flagship lcd

00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:36.160
without an outrageous price tag with that said it is only a couple

00:05:33.520 --> 00:05:41.120
hundred dollars less than an entry-level OLED of the same size

00:05:38.400 --> 00:05:46.240
so then if straight up dark theatre room movie enjoyment is your bag i gotta give

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

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:55.840
with image retention and overall longevity if you're more into sports

00:05:53.759 --> 00:06:01.280
watching or gaming this one is worth a serious look

00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:06.000
speaking of being worth a look our sponsor ifixit ifixit's essential

00:06:03.840 --> 00:06:10.000
