Vizio's first-ever revised P-Series of smart TVs is now available at a starting price of $999.

Launched initially in 2014, the P-Series is the company's attempt to attract budget-conscious consumers who are looking for 4K TVs with impressive dynamic range, eye-popping colors and unbelievable level of brightness.

However, the P-Series is not really about being the best designed smart TV. It's all about being the type of TV with exceptional performance and features.

One interesting bit of information with the new P-Series from Vizio is the 6-inch, 1080p Android tablet that works as a remote for every TV unit. The tablet will feature 16 GB of storage and Lollipop OS. It even comes with a dock for wireless charging.

At first glance, the tablet looks like a simple device with remote control functions. However, Vizio also demoed that it can display TV shows through screencast.

The tablet, which will be bundled with every TV unit in the P-Series, also comes with a new feature known as Vizio SmartCast. The accompanying app allows users to change inputs and adjust the TV's volume, show details about a title, display a synopsis, information on the cast, Tomatometer score and more. Moreover, the SmartCast app comes integrated with popular services that include Sling TV, Walmart's Vudu, Crackle and Hulu.

Vizio has also decided to equip the P-Series with Google Cast, thus eliminating the option to build a smart TV that is based on Roku or any other third-party smart TV OS.

Besides HDR and Dolby Vision support, the P-series comes with other impressive features that used to be exclusively available to the higher-priced Reference Series of the company, which include full array backlighting and 126 active LED zones.

"The new Vizio SmartCast P-Series Home Theater display elevates your experience to beautiful new heights with 4K Ultra HD picture quality, High Dynamic Range and immersive Ultra Color Spectrum," says Vizio. "Connect to a vast world of entertainment using the new Vizio SmartCast Tablet Remote preloaded with the intuitive Vizio SmartCast App."

The Vizio SmartCast P-Series is available in sizes that range from 50 to 75 inches. Apart from the starting price mentioned earlier, other prices include $1,299.99 (55-inch), $1,999.99 (65-inch), and $3,799.99 (75-inch).
