Vizio Quantum Pro (2023)

This model has no built-in far-field microphone — voice control goes through the remote.

What a far-field mic does →

Vizio's own official user manual states in its legal/privacy section: "VIZIO will only capture voice commands when you press the microphone button on your remote or mobile app and speak into the microphone on the remote control or mobile phone." The same manual's spec table lists "Remote Control Type: BT / IR Voice Remote" — the microphone lives in the remote (push-to-talk), not the TV itself, even on Vizio's flagship tier. This is a direct, explicit statement, not an inference from a missing spec row.

Firmware support status hasn't been confirmed for this model from a citable source yet.

What that actually means for your TV →

No official Vizio policy stating a minimum number of years of firmware/security updates could be found, unlike Samsung's public seven-year Tizen commitment or LG's stated webOS support windows. Vizio's own support site indicates some older models eventually stop appearing in the firmware-update list, but no source states how long a 2023 model is guaranteed updates for. Stays unverified rather than assumed either way.

This model has Vizio's ACR feature (branded "Viewing Data"), which analyses on-screen content — including over HDMI — to identify what's playing.

What ACR is and how to turn it off →

Vizio's own current privacy policy confirms its ACR system, branded "Viewing Data," collects "audio and video programming content playing on the display unit" plus device/network identifiers. Critically, the same policy states each device receives a notification and "an opportunity to choose whether to turn on Viewing Data" before any collection, and a factory reset returns it to "OFF" — this is opt-in, not the opt-out-by-default design LG and Samsung ship. `value: true` here means the feature exists and can run if enabled, matching how this site records ACR for other brands — not that it ships on by default.

Whether this model looks for other devices on your home network hasn't been confirmed from a citable source yet.

How to put a TV on its own network →

Vizio's own Viewing Data policy says it collects "the identity of devices connected to the VIZIO OS product (e.g., a streaming stick plugged into an HDMI port)" and the identifiers (MAC addresses) of nearby Wi-Fi access points. That covers devices plugged into the TV and nearby Wi-Fi networks, not other devices on your home network. We haven't found a Vizio source that says whether this TV looks for other devices on your home network. LG's answer isn't applied to other brands.
