SO DISAPPOINTED

I received this TV only a couple months ago for my birthday and it had worked incredibly well until recently. Unexpectedly, the TV would not connect to the internet. Every time I typed in my WIFI password, it would mark it as incorrect even though I double checked every time that it was correct. No matter how many times I would try, it would keep saying the WIFI password is incorrect. Since it is a smart TV, it is practically useless without WIFI. I’m so incredibly disappointed as I used to love this TV.

Sound quality is not good

I actually use this mainly as a monitor for my home computer. For the price, the video is fine. The only disappointing part is the sound quality is actually the worst in all the TV's I've ever owned. If you're planning to have a secondary sound source, then you should be fine. Set up was a little slow due to new updates, and you have to have a Vizio account just to get started. The days of buying a TV, plugging it in and watching it are long gone. To get this thing set up ready to go is going to be a minute, so prepare yourself.

Clear image and sound!

I bought 2 tvs to take to my country because the image is clear and sound is great but to my surprise Vizio is not compatible in Guatemala. Basically is a waste of money because I can’t enjoy all the features that Vizio has to offer. I ended up connecting a fire stick to my tv to be able to watch some channels. Next time I will buy a Roku tv instead of Vizio. Recommended if you live in US, not recommended if you want to take it overseas.

Happy Birthday Mom!

This purchase was for my Mom's Birthday. She loves the TV for her bedroom. She loves the clear picture, sound, and plenty of free movies. The set-up was long but worth the wait. My Mom said I have to get use to this Big TV. Ecstatic that she is Happy.

Vizio tv

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my Vizio TV last week and am very happy wirh it. The picture is vibrant. The sound is clear. Its the perfect size for my bedroom. I also own another Vizio that I've had for several years and it's still going strong.

DISAPPOINTED

I purchased this TV within the last 6 months and am not please. It constantly buffers and stalls. I most times I have to just turn it off and start all over. Also, at times when I adjust the volume it will stall and buffer. It seems to be worse when I’m trying to watch anything accept the Vizio programs. I’ve made sure all the connections and my Wi-Fi are working properly so that’s not the problem. I also have other brand tv’s in a couple of my other rooms and I’m having no problems with them.

Nice TV but

It's a nice TV, but it took forever to get set up. It's has to update the OS, which took forever then it had to update all the apps, which I never use, which also took forever. Next I had to agree to a bunch conditions and terms, just to watch a TV. I swear I signed my life away and my first born. JUST TO WATCH TV. After all that everything was fine and dandy.

My Vizio tv’s

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have just recently purchased a 65” Vizio replacing a LG Tv which I was disappointed in the quality and reliability. Now this week I have also replaced another tv with a 40” Vizio TV. The picture quality is unquestionably better than the TV’s i replaced.

Lots of channels to watch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced a Samsung tv because the remote no longer worked. I was pleased to see the Vizio did not need a Roku to access my apps. There are many channels and different genres available on this tv. The clarity is amazing!

it's ok

Possibly one of the worst television sets I have ever owned. When wearing a bluetooth headset, any time I adjust the volume, the program glitches and may drop out of the app (all), some apps the tv can't even play as expected (paramount+, FoxOne, sometimes apple and Hulu when I have live tv). I have excellent internet and wifi, yet this tv behaves as if I have dial up or broadband. I hate this thing so much, I use my computer sometimes because it's insufferable. I would replace it now, but I am moving next spring and will purchase a different brand for sure and never buy Vizio again.
