IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VIZIO, Inc. today announced the availability of a range of D-Series models at Walmart Canada. The offerings provide value-conscious consumers with multiple screen size options and access to features like Smart TV and 4K Ultra HD on select models.  The D-Series line-up is in Walmart Canada stores and online at Walmart.ca.

VIZIO D-Series Smart TV and 4K Ultra HD Models Now Available at Walmart Canada. Offerings Feature Full-Array LED Backlighting with Up to 14 Active LED Zones for Deeper Black Levels and Added Contrast.

VIZIO D-Series consumers have access to brilliant picture quality thanks to Full-Array LED backlighting technology, allowing for advanced control of LEDs and resulting in superior light uniformity and picture performance as compared to edge-lit TVs.  Up to 14 Active LED Zones dynamically adjust to the light and dark portions of on-screen content, to produce deeper black levels and greater contrast. Clear Action™ 240 delivers enhanced motion clarity with 120Hz effective refresh rate achieved with backlight scanning, and powerful image processing so sports and fast-action scenes are seen with stunningly sharp detail.

"The VIZIO D-Series models now available at Walmart Canada offer consumers an affordable entry point to Smart TV and 4K Ultra HD technologies," said Matt McRae, Chief Technology Officer, VIZIO. "Regardless of the model a consumer selects for their home, they'll enjoy the benefits of Full-Array LED backlighting which provides a more accurate picture for an enhanced entertainment experience."

The D-Series offerings are equipped with the VIZIO Internet Apps Plus® Smart TV platform, giving consumers the power to stream the hottest movies, TV shows, music and more right to their TV. The seamless Smart TV experience is possible thanks to built-in WiFi for quick and easy setup, and access to popular apps such as Netflix, Spotify, YouTube and more. 

The large-size 50" and 55" class size models in the D-Series line-up also deliver 4K Ultra HD resolution with over 8.3 million pixels, bringing more detail to every image and displaying four times the resolution of 1080p Full HD. Equipped with an ultra-fast 802.11ac dual-band WiFi and VIZIO's V6 six-core processor, the D-Series Ultra HD TV models provide a fast, easy-to-use streaming experience, with access to the latest apps2 including Ultra HD content from Netflix, UltraFlix and Toon Goggles3. When viewing Full HD or lower resolution content, users will still enjoy enhanced picture quality with VIZIO's powerful Spatial Scaling Engine™, which transforms 720p or 1080p HD content to create a beautifully upscaled Ultra HD resolution image with better accuracy and clarity to provide an all-around more immersive viewing experience4.
