Vizio Debuts Its Dolby Vision TVs As 'Special-Order' Products, Says Quantities 'Limited'

Vizio is debuting its 65- and 120-inch Dolby Vision TVs as “special-order” products, “and quantities are limited,” the company said in a notice posted Tuesday at its website. The posting invites shoppers to submit their names and contact information, and a Vizio representative or authorized reseller “will contact you shortly.” We inquired about the 65-inch set, hit the "submit" button and immediately received a Vizio email thanking us for our interest. "We will keep you posted on additional details as they become available closer to market availability," Vizio said. "In the mean time, we are offering prospective owners of the all-new 65" assistance in connecting you with any supporting services you may need, such as custom integration or installation, to bring home this special model. If you are interested in discussing further, please reply with your interest and where you are planning to install this unit (i.e. Home or commercial space)." Introduced in April on the eve of the NAB Show after much fanfare from Dolby Labs (see 1504130022), Vizio priced the 65-inch at $5,999 and the 120-inch at $129,999, the company said in a Tuesday announcement. Marketed under Vizio’s Reference Series, the sets feature “the industry's first-ever complete High Dynamic Range solution,” Vizio said.
