<p>Back at <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">this year's CES</a>, all Vizio said about its brand new M-Series lineup of HDTVs was that they'd be hitting shelves at some point "later this year." Fast forward to today, and the company's announcing its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/vizio-2013-hdtv-4k-m-series-xvt/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">2013 M-Series Smart TVs</a> are now shipping to retailers such as Best Buy, Amazon and Walmart, with interested folks being able to grab one starting at $400 for a 32-inch LED model. Speaking of which, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/vizio/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio</a> also went ahead and modified the M-Series pricing scheme a bit, making some models a little more expensive and others slightly cheaper. For example, the Theater 3D-ready 80-inch Razor LED Smart TV (say that five times fast) is now $4,000, as opposed to the $5,000 price tag that it was announced with originally. You'll find the full MSRP list in the PR after the break, and do let us know in the comments below if you plan on snagging one of these for yourself.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/vizio/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio</a> trotted out a new line of soundbars <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/vizios-2013-sound-bars/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">back at CES</a>, and true to its word, they're starting to materialize out in the real world. It's the middle-child, 42-inch unit we're seeing become available today. As a refresher, the 5.1 system comes with a wireless subwoofer, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/sony-universal-and-warner-to-use-dolby-digital-plus-audio-for-u/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Dolby Digital</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/dts/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">DTS Digital</a> Surround, Bluetooth, and a pair of rear satellite speakers. If that gap under your TV was calling out for this, then you can expect to see it at Amazon, Costco, and Walmart online, or Best Buy on both sides of the digital / physical realm (although it won't be in stores until May 27th). Wherever you get it from, expect to lay down $330 for the honor.</p>

Starting with the portables, the 14-inch Touch Thin + Light (CT14T-B0) will ship soon with an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/03/amd-trinity-review-roundup/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">AMD A10</a> APU and a base price of $1,089.99; the Core i7-equipped CT14T-B1, however, will start at $1,419.99. For those needing a bit more screen to stare at, the 15.6-inch versions of these guys will go for $1,189.99 (AMD A10) / $1,469.99 (Intel Core i7). Sliding over to desktops, the 24-inch Touch All-in-One (CA24T-B0) will ship momentarily for $1,279.99 with an AMD A10 APU, while the Core i7-infused CA24T-B1 will start at $1,439.99 and the 27-inch CA27T-B1 will get going at $1,549.99. As you'd expect, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/30/windows-8-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Windows 8</a> will find itself on home across the entire range, and those looking to buy in immediately can do so at the source links below.</p>

The previously promised release mostly focuses on giving it the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/14/google-tv-voice-search-primetime-quick-guide/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">third-generation Google TV</a> interface, including the mini-guide, YouTube pairing and (through a future Android app update) voice-guided search. Viewers on the prowl for more content get a few additional perks through new apps for M-Go and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Vudu/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vudu</a> video streaming, as well as a truly native Amazon <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/InstantVideo/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Instant Video</a> app. Should Vizio's tiny media center inhabit your living room, you can expect the upgrade to arrive over the air within the next few weeks.</p>

The expansion is twofold for Samsung, which is also adding the ad-supported streaming service to its line of Blu-ray players; Crackle characterizes today's news as the conclusion of a strategy to bring the streaming service to, "all leading smart TV manufacturers." Of course, that strategy is only complete in a handful of countries thus far -- today's additions apply to only the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia for LG and Samsung, while Vizio Smart TVs in the US and Canada are the only ones to get Crackle. All new iterations of the Crackle app are available via Samsung, LG, and Vizio's respective app portals.</p>

The 2012 expo was led mostly by high-end Android tablets. This year, Windows 8 understandably garnered much more of the spotlight now that it's available, while Google's platform mostly surfaced in the budget category, where it was much more prevalent than before. Whatever the platform, we saw our fair share of experimentation -- some companies weren't happy with just a spec bump in a familiar form factor. Check past the break for some of the more daring (or at least well-executed) examples from CES 2013.</p>

While a public launch is still planned for Q1 (just as Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/04/redbox-instant-delayed/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">said last month</a>) we've had a little time to spend with the beta on our own, and saw it running on several devices including iOS / Android and Samsung Blu-ray player in the company's hotel suite. New hardware partners announced during CES are Vizio, Google TV and LG, which should all see apps arrive soon to their assorted platforms.</p><p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="More Redbox Instant details revealed at CES Vizio, LG and Google TV clients coming" data-src-height="413" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rbinstdsc01722.jpg" /></p><p> Currently the mobile apps appear to be the most polished, however all ran smoothly and featured a look apart from the other subscription streaming services. Of course, some of that is a result of Redbox offering movies via kiosk rental<em>,</em> VOD rental / purchase or unlimited subscription. While each UI is a bit unique (predictably, the iOS app foregoes any purchase options due to Apple's insistence on a 30 percent cut) one way to keep track of how a particular movie is accessible are via several small icons in the corner of its box art, showing a kiosk for discs, play button for subscriptions, ticket for purchase, and so on. So far Redbox isn't playing in the picture quality wars, at the moment it's video maxes out at 720p and audio is stereo only, although it is looking to upgrade.</p>

<p class="image-container" style="text-align: center; "> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/vizios-2013-sound-bars/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Vizio's 2013 Soundbars bringing big audio, Bluetooth connectivity to living rooms earson" data-src-height="412" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/livedsc041282.jpg" /></a></p><p> An HDTV without a sound system to match is like a Ferrari on 14-inch rims -- still a beautiful sight to behold, but its performance falls short of what could be, given the right accessory. Vizio knows this, and so has announced its 2013 lineup of sound bars to give your HDTV some audio to match. Plus, they're all Bluetooth enabled, so they can stream tunes from your mobile device of choice as well. They come in 40-, 42-, and 54-inch models, with the smallest bar packing 2.1 channel audio, and the two larger sizes delivering 5.1 surround sound. Each bar also comes with a wireless subwoofer to deliver low-end punch -- the 40- and 42-inchers come with a 6-inch sub, while the big boy gets an 8-inch unit.</p><p> Vizio has unified the look of its 2013 sound bar lineup, giving it the same understated design language seen in their <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/vizios-xvt-ultra-hdtv-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">new HDTVs</a>. We got to listen to all the new bars in person today, and found the audio quality to be quite good. The bars all handled highs and mids without distortion at theater volume levels, and faithfully reproduced dialogue without sacrificing the deep and rich sound effects from a <em>Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows </em>clip. Bass from the 8-inch sub was particularly impressive, as it shook the room with every explosion from the movie. As usual, full pricing and availability are hard to come by at the moment, but we do know the 42-inch model will retail for $330 later this year. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio 2013 home theater sound bars ears-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/5544509?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc04128_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/5544510?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc04129_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/5544511?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc04130_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/5544512?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc04131_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-sound-bars-ears-on/5544513?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc04132_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio 2013 home theater sound bars press shots</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/5544556?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rs3898s4251wflatsubsat-wal-1357603077_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/5544559?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rs3899s4251wflatfronttopshot-wal-1357603078_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/5544567?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rs3902s4251w3quarterview2hero-hpr-1357603082_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/5544570?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rs3903s4251w3quarterview-wal-1357603083_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-home-theater-soundbars-press-shots/5544562?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/rs3900s4251wflatbrandingshot-lpr-1357603079_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

The two highlights were codenamed Temash and Kabini, two products that the company is touting as its first true system-on-chip APUs. In fact, each of 'em will launch as the "industry's first quad-core x86 SoCs" in the first half of 2013. It also took the wraps off of Richland, an APU that's presently shipping to OEMs and promises to deliver "more than 20 percent to up to 40 percent over the previous generation of AMD A-Series APUs."</p><p> The outfit will be bundling Richland will new software for consumers such as <a href="http://www.eyesight-tech.com/" target="_blank">eyeSight</a>-enabled gesture and facial-recognition, while the follow-on will be the 28nm APU codenamed "Kaveri" -- a device that should ship to customers during the second half of 2013. We're also told that AMD's newest silicon will be used in various HP Sleekbooks and Vizio's 11.6-inch APU-powered tablet, two Vizio ultrathin laptops, and a 24-inch AIO desktop. Hungry for more? The full release is after the break.</p>

Now we're back for part deux, starring Tegra and a healthy dose of Jelly Bean. While touring the company's suite, we found two prototypes: a 10-inch tablet with NVIDIA's new <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/06/nvidia-tegra-4-official/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Tegra 4</a> chip and a mid-range 7-inch model designed to take on the lower end of the market. Starting with the 10-inch model, key specs (aside from Tegra 4) include a 2,560 x 1,600 display, 32GB of on-board memory, NFC and dual 5MP / 1.3MP cameras. The 7-incher, meanwhile, has 16 gigs of storage, and steps down to Tegra 3 and a 1,280 x 800 resolution. No NFC on that one. Both run Jelly Bean, though -- stock Jelly Bean, at that.</p><p> Design-wise, both have a rubbery, soft-touch finish, similar to what you'll find on the Windows 8 tablet we saw earlier. As ever, it makes for a sturdier grip, though unlike on the Tablet PC there's no beveling on the sides where you can rest your thumbs. Both models have narrow speaker grilles on the back, except the 10-inch model has two, while the 7-incher has one. As with the Tablet PC, the display isn't IPS, per se, but it does have some unspecified wide-angle viewing technology. Indeed, we were able to follow along with a movie from off to the side and with the tablets lying face-up, but we did notice the colors seemed a little pale. Washed out.</p><p> As for Tegra 4, we wish we could tell you more but alas, NVIDIA is still being awfully protective over its technology demos. So, while the folks staffing Vizio's booth let us watch a movie clip, we weren't permitted to select other media files or play any games. All in due time, we suppose. Suffice to say, the 1080p movie we watched ran smoothly, but that wasn't ever really a problem on Tegra 3, was it? In any case, we'll surely be showing you lots more of Tegra 4. As for this particular tablet? We're not sure. Vizio hasn't confirmed whether either of these tablets will come to market, though it says there's a good chance, particularly for the higher-end 10-inch model. Whatever happens, we've got hands-on photos below, along with a video walkthrough of both devices. <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio10- and 7-inch Android tablets hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/5544281?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9724_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/5544282?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9725_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/5544284?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9727_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/5544285?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9728_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-shows-off-10-and-7-inch-android-tablets-at-ces-2013/5544286?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9729_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

Its sibling is a 4.7-inch model packing a 720 x 1080 display powered by a dual-core MediaTek chip, the same 8-megapixel rear cam, and a 1.3-megapixel unit on the front. It also has a microSD slot, 16GB of onboard storage and 1GB of RAM. Each phone comes with AT&amp;T band radios, including HSPA+ 42, and will run bone-stock Jelly Bean (save for a minor tweaks).

At the top of the list are the company's XVT Ultra models at 55-, 65- and 70-inches, which will bring 4K video to living rooms on an unknown date later this year. The company had the 70-inch set on hand showing some native 4K footage, and as you'd expect, it looked good. Viewing angles approach 180 degrees, and the new design's 10mm bezel is barely noticeable. Speaking of which, the industrial design on the XVT line is understated and premium, with an anodized silver metal band surrounding the edge of the set and minimal branding.</p><p> In addition to the 70-inch set, Vizio also had a prototype 55-inch 3D XVT model that was most impressive. Its viewing angles were just as good as the 70-inch set, but the highlight is its glasses-free 3D. Vizio's implementation of the technology takes full advantage of the 4K resolution to provide a high quality 3D picture, and its software maintains a focused picture from all angles. Of course, there are sweet spots for viewing the full 3D depth affect, but outside of those zones, 2D picture quality was maintained. Unfortunately, Vizio hasn't committed to a 2013 release date for glasses-free 3D, but the rest of the lineup, set to debut later this year, will still have the firm's glasses-dependent passive 3D technology. Interested? There's plenty of pics of the new sets in our gallery below.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio's 2013 HDTV lineup eyes-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/5542421?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9559_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/5542422?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9560_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/5542423?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9561_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/5542424?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9562_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tvs-at-ces-2013/5542425?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9563_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

<p class="image-container" style="text-align: center; "> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/vizio-thin-and-light-touch-all-in-one-touch-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Spotted Vizio's new touchscreen laptops and allinones handson" data-src-height="412" data-src-width="619" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9654-1357589324.jpg" /></a></p><p> If you loved Vizio's 2012 lineup of PCs, you're going to just love what it has in store for 2013. The company is <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/06/vizio-thin-and-light-touch-all-in-one-touch/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">refreshing</a> nearly its entire line, and while these new models usher in upgraded components, they have the same industrial design as the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/18/vizio-all-in-one-review-24-inch-ca24a1/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">original</a> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/10/vizio-thin-light-review-14-inch-2012/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">lot</a>. Perhaps the biggest change is that all of Vizio's new PCs going forward will come with touchscreens, so that the Thin + Light is now the Thin + Light Touch, and the All-in-One is now the All-in-One Touch. (Fair enough!) As you can imagine, that makes the laptops in particular slightly thicker and heavier than they had been, but only slightly. Truly, you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference. We were, anyway.</p><p> Additionally, Vizio has updated the trackpad drivers, though the touchpad we tested still felt a bit finicky. Just as important, the company's also re-tooled the keyboard so that the buttons offer a springier feel. They keys have the same flat, close-together design they always had, so don't be put off if you see these on the shelf at Best Buy. Even in our quick-hands-on, we immediately noticed our typing felt more accurate, more controlled than it had been with the last-gen models. Finally, Vizio says it's doubled the battery capacity, which is great news because the first-gen laptop we tested couldn't even crack four hours. This seems like a lofty ,claim given that touchscreens are known to hamper battery life anyway, but we're vowing to keep our expectations low and hope for the best. All told, these tweaks address most user complaints, though the SD slot is sadly still MIA.</p><p> Under the hood, these machines will all have quad-core processors, with most models giving you a choice between an Intel Core i7 CPU and AMD's high-end A10 chip. Most of them (read: the 15-inch Thin + Light and the 24- and 27-inch all-in-ones) will have 1080p screens, though the smaller 14-inch Thin + Light will rock a lower-res 1,600 x 900 panel. No word just yet on pricing, but we're told these will go on sale in mid-February. Until then, the performance, sharp touchscreens, bigger battery and re-engineered keyboard look very promising indeed. Only when we test a final unit, though, can we tell whether Vizio finally figured out how to make a quality computer.</p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

(How's that for an appropriate name?) Like so many other Win 8 tablets it has an 11.6-inch screen, but the similarities mostly end there. On the inside, it packs a dual-core, 1GHz AMD Z60 chip, making it one of the few tablets in this class that doesn't run an Atom processor. At the same time, the screen squeezes in 1,920 x 1,080 pixels -- an unusual resolution for a lower-powered product like this. Other known specs: 2GB of RAM, 64GB of flash storage, a 2-megapixel front camera and micro-HDMI / micro-USB ports. So far, we don't know how much this will cost, or even when it will be available, so it's going to be a little tough to compare this to other offerings in the marketplace. For now, though, we've managed to steal a few minutes of hands-on time here at CES. Meet us past the break for some first thoughts on the design, the performance and that crisp 1080p screen. And stay tuned for video -- we've got that coming too.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio Tablet PC hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/5542554?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9669_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/5542555?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9671_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/5542556?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9672_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/5542557?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9673_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-tablet-pc-hands-on/5542558?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/dsc9674_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p><p> <strong>Update:</strong> As promised, our video tour of the tablet can be found after the break.</p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

Among its 2013 lineup of LCD HDTVs is a new top of the line <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/xvt/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">XVT-Series</a> of Ultra HDTVs at 55-, 65- and 70-inches. The XVT551d, 651d and 701D don't have much in the way of prices or release dates, but the company claims it will "bring the expensive new technology to mainstream consumers." In the more accessible realm however are its M-Series displays, which will for the first time this year offer a universal backlit remote connected by WiFi Direct. Thanks to its connected remote, Vizio claims it will be able to control the entire home theater without the usual nagging setup process.</p><p> There are two M-Series lineups, the one with Theater 3D ranges in size from 50-inches to 80-inches, and in price from $849 to $4,499, while the models without max out at 47-inches and $699. Check below for a press release with all of the prices and specs plus a shot of that remote, although all we know about a release is that they'll be arriving "later this year."<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Vizio 2013 HDTVs</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/5540551?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xvt70side800_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/5540552?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xvt70front800_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/5540553?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/xvt70angled800_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/5540555?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/m80-side800_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/vizio-2013-hdtvs/5540556?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/m80-angled800_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></p>

The company just announced the Vizio Tablet PC, an 11.6-inch slate running full Windows (i.e., none of this RT business). What's interesting is the combination of specs here: on the one hand, it packs a dual-core, 1GHz <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/09/amd-z60-tablet-chip/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">AMD Z60</a> chip, making it among the first Windows 8 tablets with an AMD processor inside. At the same time, it rocks a 1080p display -- not the sort of resolution you'd expect to find on a low-power tablet with a Z-series or Intel Atom CPU. Also, like the rest of Vizio's PCs, this has a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/11/samsung-x430-headed-for-microsoft-stores-with-a-crapware-free-co/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Microsoft Signature</a> software install, with zero bloatware. Otherwise, the specs are pretty standard: 2GB of RAM, 64GB of solid-state storage, a 2-megapixel front camera and micro-HDMI / micro-USB ports. Vizio hasn't announced pricing or exact availability just yet, but we hope to get hands-on with this thing very, very soon.</p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p>

We had to respect Vizio for giving most of its PCs 1080p screens and installing a clean, bloatware-free version of Windows. Not to mention, Vizio kept the price relatively low, the same way it did when it was trying to break into the TV space. Now, the company is completely refreshing its lineup for 2013, leaving only one model from 2012 (that would be its 15-inch mainstream notebook). Starting now, all of its all-ones and Thin + Light laptops will come standard with touchscreens and quad-core processors, including some from AMD (a first for Vizio).</p><p> What's curious is that although Vizio is taking the opportunity to replace most of its PCs, it hasn't actually made any changes to the industrial design. That means, for better or worse, that these new models will probably be quite similar to the PCs we tested just a few months ago. Same metal chassis but also, the same flat keyboard. What they do promise is faster performance, along with improved audio. Both the 14- and 15-inch Thin + Light Touch are available with either a Core i7 CPU or AMD's top-of-the-line A10 chip. Likewise, the 24-inch all-in-one is now the All-in-One Touch, and it too will be available with AMD and Intel processors. The 27-inch model, however, will be Intel-only.</p><p> As ever, these machines will have that clean <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/11/samsung-x430-headed-for-microsoft-stores-with-a-crapware-free-co/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Microsoft Signature</a> install, and almost all will have 1080p screens, save for the 14-inch Thin + Light, which has 1,600 x 900 resolution. No word on pricing, though Vizio says they'll go on sale in mid-February. We'll be back soon enough with hands-on shots but for now, check out some press photos after the break.</p><p> <em>Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/ces2013/articles/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">event hub</a>.</em></p><p> <strong>Update</strong>: We've received a little more information from Vizio that suggests the industrial design has changed more than we originally thought. The battery now has double the capacity and the keys have been re-tooled so that they're springier (from the outside, the keyboard looks the same as it ever did, though).</p>

The company announced that its 58-inch <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/CinemaWide/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">CinemaWide</a> HDTVs have moved from being <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/27/vizio-xvt-cinemawide-tv-goes-on-sale/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">available exclusively online</a>, to the physical store shelves of Costco and Sam's Club stores. If the prospect of watching most movies without any black bars (although standard 16x9 TV programming won't quite fit without side bars, zooming or app/menu filler) hasn't quite moved you to buy, there is also the news that its price has dropped another $500 to a shade below $2,000, which puts it closer to the 46-inch HDTVs it's size resembles when watching regular widescreen video. When they initially started shipping our friends at <i>HD Guru</i> were told it was a limited one time only run of 1,000 units -- we'll see if any more sets show up or if this the last gasp for HDTVs in this format.</p>

But with Vizio's model selling for just $99, it's half the price of Sony's entry, so you might be wondering how extensive the differences are. Now that we've had a chance to test both, we're ready to weigh in.

You might wonder, then, why we've been a little fixated on Vizio's. Well, for starters, up until a few months ago the company <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/09/vizio-officially-introduces-pc-line/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">didn't even make PCs</a>, and now <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/09/vizio-officially-introduces-pc-line/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">it's selling five</a>. Secondly, they actually look pretty good, especially for an outfit that's best known for its value-priced TVs.</p><p> We've already had a chance to take its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/10/vizio-thin-light-review-14-inch-2012/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">14-inch Thin + Light laptop</a> for a spin, and came to the conclusion that although it had a flaky trackpad and poor battery life, it represented a good start for a company that hadn't previously made a computer. Now we're taking a look at one of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/14/vizios-ivy-bridge-all-in-ones-get-official/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">the company's all-in-one desktops</a> -- the 24-inch version, to be exact. At $800 and up, it, too, is attractively priced, with an eye-catching metal design, external subwoofer and a crapware-free Windows install. But is it as good as it looks? Let's find out.</p>

It's mostly been a mystery beyond the acknowledgment of a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/11/onlive-reaffirms-support-for-marvell-powered-arm-google-tv-boxes/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Marvell ARM chip inside</a>. The <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/teardown/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">teardown</a> gurus at iFixit certainly weren't content to let that riddle go unanswered. Their exploration of the box shows that Vizio is very much clinging to the initial Marvell vision of using a dual-core, 1.2GHz <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/05/google-tv-officially-switching-to-arm-marvell-armada-1500-cpu-t/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Armada 1500</a> to handle 1080p video at that $100 price -- albeit with just 4GB of flash to store everything the Android OS demands. What may interest hobbyists is simply the accessibility of the set-top box: just about every board and component comes out easily, which could lead to some cheaper <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/DIY/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">DIY</a> surgery.  The full parts list is waiting at the source if knowing how your Google TV box operates is as important as catching up on Netflix.</p>
