What to know about VIZIO VQM65C-1004

The VIZIO Mini LED Quantum is the lowest-cost TV in our evaluation pool by a wide margin. It offers Mini-LED local dimming, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and 120fps gaming at 1080p, but its native 60Hz 4K panel and more basic overall performance keep it below the eight recommended models.
