The Vizio M-Series Quantum 2020 is a decent budget 4K TV with fantastic color accuracy and gamut. It doesn’t get very bright though, and depending on the content, shadow details can suffer. You’re getting most of what you’d want out of a 4K experience, like full array local dimming, good contrast ratio and saturated colors.
