Vizio announced its first lineup of 4K TVs yesterday, but there was no word on price. Surprisingly enough, the company has already broken its silence on the matter — its consumer-grade P series lineup of 4K TVs will start at only $999.99 for a 50-inch model. The top-end, 70-inch model will go for $2,599.99, making Vizio's series the most affordable we've seen yet. While Polaroid announced a $999 4K TV, its quality leaves a lot to be desired — but that's not the case with Vizio's models. We had a chance to check them out for ourselves and you're definitely looking at a high-quality picture.

 

So if you want the larger 70" model, get ready to dish out $2500, but the 50" model is plenty big enough for just about anybody. Anyways, $1000 for a 50" TV? That's not bad, BUT $1000 for a 50" TV that is 4K? Shut up and take my money, all of it, er well, $1000 of it.

 

It's great to see more TV companies coming out with affordable 4K TVs. Obviously there's cheaper options out there. I do recall somebody announcing a 28" 4K TV or monitor. May have been ASUS? I don't quite remember, but even that's a good deal for a 4K TV or monitor.

It's going to look terrible like the Seiki most likely though.

So I can have a 50" 4k TV  but there isn't much monitors under that same price...

 

Interesting.

Vizio TV's are pretty good quality.

I've got a 60" Vizio and it looks just as good as my expensive Samsung.

The smaller the better.

More PPI.

Vizio makes some good stuff.

It makes me wonder where they're cutting to make decent stuff so cheap

4K cost X amount

Most companies are selling the TV for X amount times 10

Vizio is selling the TV for X amount times 5.

 

More people buy, make quick profit on TV.

Given that it's Vizio, I'd expect the quality to be decent. Vizio makes great quality sets considering their prices.

All the Vizeo TV owners I know including myself say that there are great TV's. I really hope it's as good as they say. If it is, I think my current TV is about to have an "accident."
