Then as far as design goes, you\u2019ve seen this one. But bigger. Like a lot bigger. Like someone took the excellent 65-inch P Series, grabbed it by the corners, and stretched. That\u2019s not a bad thing, though; if something ain\u2019t broke, don\u2019t fix it, right?<\/p>\n<p>After all, you still get the epically thin bezels around the entire Vizio P85. That\u2019s an improvement over other models, which have three \u201cbezel-less\u201d sides and a bottom chin. The Voice remote also makes its way to this television, and it\u2019s as fine a remote as you can hold. And if you like the idea of TV feet with multiple positions to theoretically support a sound bar (yeah, you\u2019ll want one), then you\u2019ll be glad to know this model includes that same stand design.<\/p>\n<p>At least, well, in theory. The Vizio P85 is so incredibly large that it requires feet placed much farther apart than other models. Because I already have a 120-inch projector screen in my living room, I brought the Vizio 85-inch into my bedroom. Admittedly that\u2019s ridiculous. But to add to that ridiculousness, this is the first TV I\u2019ve ever brought into my home that couldn\u2019t sit on my wide dresser. The feet were farther apart than my dresser. And that\u2019s well over 60 inches wide. Initially, I had to bring a minifridge into my bedroom and place it next to my dresser to hold the TV. It\u2019s ridiculous in all the best ways.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-122045\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ec1f3b1d.jpg\" alt=\"The back of a giant TV on a wall mount\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">You\u2019ll need a hefty wall mount for this big guy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Of course, if I had left a minifridge in my bedroom, my wife would have killed me. So I hung this TV on a wall, thanks to its VESA compatibility. Now, you\u2019ll need a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B079RY87X1?tag=reviewgeekreviews-20\">heavy-duty mount<\/a> to accomplish that and probably some friends. I hung up the TV with my wife, and let me tell you\u2014we almost died. This TV weighs 100 pounds and is spread across a surface nearly the size of a Queen mattress. Haning it is not for the faint of heart, and I\u2019m not sure I could convince my wife to do it again.<\/p>\n<p>But overall, when it comes to \u201cgiant slab on your wall,\u201d it\u2019s hard not to like what Vizio is doing here. Especially the placement of HDMI ports, more companies should follow Vizio\u2019s lead. I wish the eARC HDMI port (number 3 in the list) supported 120 Hz for surround systems. But if you\u2019re going to make us choose, I\u2019d rather have this setup than share the eARC port with one of the two 120 Hz capable ports.<\/p>\n<p>And while we\u2019re mentioning the design, I\u2019ll bring up the speakers. Vizio slotted backfiring speakers that aim straight at the wall on the P85. Like every other modern TV, they are, at best OK. You won\u2019t get thumping bass from them or even anything immersive. They\u2019re fine for binging a comedy but not a good choice for catching the latest Marvel film. You\u2019ll want a soundbar, or better yet, a surround sound system, to make the most of this giant display.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SmartCast_Is_Improving_All_The_Time\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_1\">SmartCast Is Improving All The Time<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I generally judge a TV\u2019s OS by how quickly I want to plug a Roku stick into one of its HDMI ports. And I\u2019m happy to say that generally, with SmartCast, I don\u2019t want to. Nearly all the apps I want are available, with SyFy being one of the few exceptions, and it plays well with those apps too. Whether I\u2019m watching HBO Max, Netflix, or Plex, I\u2019ve never seen a sign of stutter or slowdown. Everything works.<\/p>\n<p>The voice commands you get with the remote are surprisingly good, though I rarely use the feature. It\u2019s a nice option, and I won\u2019t complain, but talking to my TV (specifically the remote) will never stop feeling weird. Thankfully Vizio recently added a search option in the SmartCast interface, negating any need to use voice controls.<\/p>\n<p>My complaints about SmartCast remain the same for now. First, there\u2019s how you install and navigate apps. Every app that Vizio offers is automatically installed in one long row. The best you can do to make that better is rearrange them so the apps you want are first in line and the apps you\u2019ll never use are last (I\u2019m looking at you, CourtTV). All told, there are 125 apps and counting, and there\u2019s got to be a better way to handle them.<\/p>\n<p>You can get to an app catalog, but it\u2019s just a list of the stuff already installed broken into categories. It\u2019s not helpful. The good news is that a reliable source tells me that Vizio is working on making the app experience better than it is now, and I can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Display_That_Just_Wont_Quit\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_2\">A Display That Just Won\u2019t Quit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-122049\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/06\/d0402bde.jpg\" alt=\"A tv displaying a scene from Howl's Moving Castle\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Which Studio Ghibli movie is best, and why is it <em>Howl\u2019s Moving Castle<\/em>?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As I have mentioned, I already have two screens far larger than the\u00a0Vizio P85. As such, I honestly didn\u2019t expect to be that impressed by an 85-inch screen on the wall. Thanks to a 120 HZ display, it should be better for gaming than my projectors. But for everything else, bigger is always better right? Wrong.<\/p>\n<p>The Vizio 85-Inch P85QX-J01 is stunning. According to Vizio, the TV can reach 3,000 nits, and though other reviewers have confirmed the stat, I don\u2019t need special tools to know it\u2019s true. This is one of the biggest, brightest, most beautiful displays you could ever want. Looking at this TV is like staring at a beautiful work of art that just so happens to be backlit by the sun.<\/p>\n<p>As I already mentioned, we have the TV in our bedroom. It\u2019s so dang bright using default settings that at night you can\u2019t tell the difference when we turn off the lights in the room and the TV is on. On one occasion, the thing lit up our house so well that it woke my eight-year-old up in his room, and he asked us to either close our door or turn off the lights in the room. But our lights were off\u2014it was the TV alone.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-122054\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/06\/79465a5d.jpg\" alt=\"The 'Spider-Man: Miles Morales' game on a huge tv\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If your preferred TV room (be it a living room, entertainment room, or wherever) is a sunlit nightmare that washes out most televisions, this is the one for you. It\u2019ll easily stand up to even the brightest of rooms. For our sake, we switched away from the default settings to the Calibrated Dark preset. That preset not only looks better overall, but it\u2019s much less bright. But even with that, and even after adjusting the game video settings to be darker, my wife must wear a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B097GT1DBX?tag=reviewgeekreviews-20\">high-quality eye mask<\/a> to sleep if I stay up late watching TV or playing video games.<\/p>\n<p>And I\u2019ve been doing that way too much lately. In the past, we might have stayed in the living room and watched on the absolute largest screen in our home. And we still do that if it\u2019s an epic movie that calls for fantastic sound. But most of the time, we switch to the bedroom TV as we wind down for the night. And then I stay up even later playing video games.<\/p>\n<p>As a video game TV, this is amazing. It\u2019s ginormous, but unlike my projectors, it has proper support for my Xbox Series X and PS5 (though more on the PS5 later). Whether I\u2019m playing\u00a0<em>Spider-Man: Miles Morales<\/em> on my PS5 or\u00a0<em>Rocket League<\/em> and\u00a0<em>Halo<\/em> on my Xbox, everything is better on this TV thanks to its gaming engine and variable refresh rate support. I\u2019ve never noticed the slight latency on my projectors before when playing\u00a0<em>Rocket League<\/em>, but it runs so smoothly on the Vizio P85 that I can\u2019t unsee the issue with my projector now.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s not an OLED display. But the blacks on this screen get incredibly dark thanks to the P85\u2019s 792 local dimming zones. And OLED screens rarely (if ever) get as bright as the P85 can, so it\u2019s a trade-off on which tech you want to buy. At least with this expensive TV, you don\u2019t have to worry about burn-in.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"But_I_Do_Have_Some_Complaints\"><\/span>But I Do Have Some Complaints<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-122050\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/06\/d48a1708.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">This happened again while taking review photos.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I\u2019d love to end the review right there on a high note of how glorious the P85 looks, but I can\u2019t. Unfortunately, there are a few problems with this TV, and generally, you\u2019ll find those issues across the Vizio lineup.<\/p>\n<p>First up, we can\u2019t escape the price. At $3,000 (or more if you go by MSRP), it\u2019s not an affordable TV. There\u2019s just no way around that fact. But frankly, that\u2019s fine. This is not meant to be a cheap television\u2014it\u2019s a bombastic, in-your-face, giant TV designed to leave you awestruck. You just aren\u2019t going to get a 4K 85-inch 120hz next-gen gaming-capable TV for less than what Vizio is offering here. If you want an affordable TV, there are plenty out there. The P85 is for someone who wants to drop a pretty penny on a stunning television.<\/p>\n<p>Moving on to things you\u2019ll find on all Vizio\u2019s, let\u2019s talk about the ads. SmartCast, like most smart TV interfaces, is replete with ads. Across the screen, you\u2019ll find scrolling (muted, thankfully) videos from various services like Disney+.\u00a0 That\u2019s fine, I guess; it\u2019s easy to ignore. But occasionally, when you hit the home button, SmartCast will interrupt you with a full-screen giant ad with no obvious closing method. You have to hit the right button on the remote (back), which may be difficult if the lights are turned off, and you\u2019re unfamiliar with the remote. It\u2019s obnoxious. At least it doesn\u2019t happen often.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-122052 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/06\/ac657fc8.jpg\" alt=\"A ladybug on a giant TV\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Ads on smart TV interfaces are nothing new. But the general logic has been, \u201cyou get this $500 TV at a discount, or this $40 streaming stick for super cheap in exchange for ads.\u201d Let me remind you that the P85 is $3,000. And it feels wrong to get bombarded with full-screen ads that interrupt what you\u2019re doing on ANY television, let alone one this expensive. I wish Vizio would consider turning them off for its top-of-the-line TVs.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, as I mentioned in my <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/102269\/vizio-p-series-quantum-2022-review-a-nearly-perfect-gaming-tv\/\">Vizio P-Series 65-inch review, there is an ongoing green screen issue with PS5. I am glad to say this situation is improved. When I tested the 65-inch model, I\u2019d frequently turn on or switch to my PS5 only to encounter a giant green screen. The only option was to unplug the TV.<\/p>\n<p>After several updates, I see the problem far less frequently. I\u2019ve narrowed down at least one reproducible scenario\u2014switching directly from the Xbox Series X to PS5 will cause the green screen. Few people own both, so most people won\u2019t encounter that green screen instance. And Vizio tells me it plans to roll out a fix for that scenario soon. I am also seeing it occasionally happen when simply turning on my PS5. But it\u2019s not every time, or even often, and I can\u2019t figure out what happens differently in the instances that I do see it. But thankfully, opening Settings, heading to the Admin menu, and choosing to reboot the TV now clears the green screen.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s nowhere near as annoying as it used to be, and it seems like it may be solved soon. That\u2019s good work from Vizio. These issues are minor, but they do add up or occur often enough to warrant mentioning.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"If_You_Can_Afford_It_Buy_It\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_4\">If You Can Afford It, Buy It<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It always comes down to this: \u201cWould I buy the Vizio P85 now that I\u2019ve had it in my home to test?\u201d And that\u2019s a tricky question to answer. At the moment, the only reason the answer is \u201cno\u201d is simply because I already have two bigger screens in my home. But let\u2019s set aside for a moment and pretend I didn\u2019t. I\u2019ve easily spent more on my home theater displays than the P85 costs.<\/p>\n<p>And now that I\u2019ve gone hands-on with this enormous, glorious, beautiful TV? Absolutely in a heartbeat, I\u2019d buy it. I\u2019d probably have to fight to convince my wife, who usually would prefer to spend $500 or less on a TV. But I think I can get here there, especially now that she\u2019s spent time with it too.<\/p>\n<p>Because here\u2019s the thing: I have two displays in my home that are bigger than the P85. And yet I still end up using this one often. Some of that is the location in my bedroom. But it\u2019s also a better gaming display. Not to mention anything with a dark scene instantly looks better on the P85 than my projector setups.<\/p>\n<p>Vizio\u2019s P85 is nothing short of spectacular. If you would never spend $3,000 on TV, then I\u2019m not sure I could convince you to try it. But if you\u2019re willing to spend more on luxury, this TV should be on your shortlist. It\u2019s spectacular.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single-review-card border\">\n<div class=\"review-card-heading\">\nRating: <strong>9\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Price: <strong>$2999<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"review-card-body\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like-2\"><\/span>Here\u2019s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It&#8217;s gargantuan in size<\/li>\n<li>Absolutely stunning colors<\/li>\n<li>Almost as bright as the sun<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont-2\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Expensive (for good reason)<\/li>\n<li>Full screen ads are obnoxious<\/li>\n<li>Occasional green screen issues with PS5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
