The Pure Pixel Processing Engine is another welcome addition that reduces noise and improves picture quality from a compressed source. Pressing the Menu button got rid of it, but it's an annoyance. Sometimes the M-series felt the need to continually show us the TV upgrading features menu in various languages, even while programming was displaying on the screen. ![]() Why else buy a 4K TV right? Vizio gets a passing grade but nothing more as the TVs Sharpness is too much even after picture setting adjustment. Edges are clear and detail greatly enhanced by the resolution as it should be. The new M-series Vizio does an exceptional job of upconverting 1080p content. Owing to the lack of the ability to stream the limited 4K content available, this is the most important qualitative aspect of 4K UHD TVs. The spacial scaling engine in the M-series is responsible for upscaling from HD to UHD. The 28 LED dimming Zones are a big plus as well from the BluRay version of Return of the Jedi Upscaling and Processing Vizio M43-C1 is an exceptional value with the picture quality it delivers. Netflix content was somewhat softer, but still accurate and colorful. BluRay, Broadcast and streaming video from the Amazon Instant App are very defined and excellent, taking advantage of some of that 4K resolution. The picture quality understandably varies based on the source. ![]() For this reason, we choose to rate the picture quality rating and notes based mostly on those lower resolution signals rather than 4K. This places prime importance on the processing ad upscaling engine. This means that upscaling to the native 4K resolution of the panel takes on significant importance in our evaluation since most everything you will currently watch (1080p HD, 720p HD, 480p/i standard def) will have to be upscaled. There are not a plethora of options out there for 4K content and this makes testing and evaluation more difficult. There is a lot to discuss in picture quality. "While the zonal manipulation is a clear benefit, I believe the full array backlighting itself is the greatest qualitative difference maker here"
