Who has one and what TV did you come from to it. I've been shopping for a while now. I'm still drawn back to the Sony 65" 950G as it is hard to beat. Best Buy has dropped the price in my area for the Sony to 1500. They had an open box Quantum 65" for 1100 and it had outstanding colors from what I seen at the store. I'm looking for real world experience, anyone who had a Vizio what problems did you have if any and all that stuff. I've had friends who've had a lower wnd Vizio who love their's but I was not ever even thinking about buying one since most places of business(bars) who has had them did not think highly of them. One thing I didn't like about the Sony in BB was that it seem to have picked up EVERYTHING.It was alomost mirror like. Granted I more than likely will not have all the lighting BB has but coming from a Panasonic Plasma mine did not reflect like that. The Vizio Quantum X didn't seem to have that problem. I'm absolutely in no hurry as I have been actually shopping for a few years and always came back to the Sony time after time since the E series.

I'd love to get a 75" but jumping to that size doubles the cost which I think is ridiculous.

    The absolutely ONLY complaint I have about the Vizios I have: the remotes fail. Not completely, but some functions get lost. Now keep in mind that the TVs I have experience with are over 10 years old, and the P series wasn't produced at the time.

    Currently I have a 32" M series, and a 49" Sony XBR 4k

    Vizio fan boy here so I can't give you any honest/non-biased opinions. But I will say, the P Series Quantum is Vizio's game changer. With the price:performance ratio of the P Series Quantum, you would be hard pressed to find a better quality set at a comparable price.

    The only thing I didn't like about OLED was they didn't look as good as QLED's in bright room. I have a very bright room 1 wall virtually all glass facing south....

    OLED panels have a horrible burn in problem. Best buy told me they had replaced many of their display models multiple times because of it. One employee said his had a very bad Red blotch problem and his panel had less than 500hr on it and Sony refused to do anything about it. I'm all in on OLED as soon as they figure out how to get better longevity out of them. I love the blacker than black blacks and the colors they can have but I refuse to spend huge coin on something that can have a burn in problem no matter how well you take care of it. Plasma's had it as well but you really had to have a static image for quit some time before it was noticeable. Gaming static displays and bright white station logos were the worst.
