Nice TV but cannot stream certain channels.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tv has great picture and sound but it will not let you stream Xfinity without adding a Roku or other device. Not sure if they actually block it but this is the second Visio I bought that had that problem. Returned the last one and bought a Roku TV. Visio needs to fix this.

All new experience to the 67-year-old person lol

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was given to me to my daughter and is a whole New World. I have never had a smart TV and it's gonna take me a minute to figure it out on what I can and can't do. I have loaded my Netflix and Peacock account so I'm a little ahead of the game .

It's a trap!

I was not happy at all with the user interface. Using the Vizio Smart TV capabilities, it is impossible to download apps that are not installed on the TV already. I can't download the MLB app and watch baseball games, So for me the fact that this is a smart TV is completely useless. Not to mention the fact that I have to create an account, I have to give Vizio my phone number and email address just to be able to use the TV in any fashion. That is very shady, very dishonest, and very greedy. I am not a fan at all and I will be returning this product.

Poor quality and glitchy software!

First, no ethernet connection! Only 2 inputs and no RCA jacks. Reactions are EXTREMELY LAGGY! Takes aeconds to react to an input. Too many menus and setup takes WAY TOO LONG and you must register and create an account, and agree to ridiculous terms to stream.. i would never buy one of these again even having had positive feedback of vizio is the past..

Fantastic Picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to receive this Vizio tv. It's lightweight and it was easy to remove from the box and set up. I'm very impressed with the picture quality and the huge range of programming choices. My only disappointment is the poor Bluetooth/remote options.

Vizio 43". Easy to set up.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never owned a Vizio. I wish I had given Vizio a try a long time ago. The TV has very good picture quality, clear and sharp colors, the sound is good even with out a sound bar. The remote is comfortable in the hand, the keys are readable and easy to use. There is no "pause" button, you need to push the center button.

Great value

I had a previous Vizio tv that needed replacement (18 years old!) Opted for another Visio for value and quality. Having issue trying to use only my cable company's remote. I still have to use the Vizio remote to turn on tv and redirect to HDMI 1 instead of the Vizio home screen. Therefore I award 4 stars instead of 5.

excellent picture

Today's set up with TVs seems harder to me but then I grew up in a different era. I am approaching 80 years old faster then I like and this new technology is baffling to me. So, I had my grand daughter do it or the TV would still be unwatchable. But it seems to be a nice TV, and the picture is way better then my old TV. I had to Micky Mouse the existing wall hanger because it did not work with it. The holes would not line up right, but I am still good at making the unmatchable match. All in all, A nice TV.

Not very reliable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this television set the end of May because my wife had been very ill and I wanted a new TV in the bedroom for her. After four months of use the screen was scrambled and quit working. Since it was under warranty, I contacted Vizio and they sent me a used replacement set. The replacement set was defective and had bars going across it. They told me once they got the original set back and I have already sent it to them, then I would be eligible to get a replacement for my replacement. Not happy about getting a used television!

Sound leveling issue with headphone use

There are a number of things to like. This is a reasonably priced TV with good resolution. However, its relationship with headphones is not working. If headphone battery dies the tv sound blasts higher than the volume previously set. There are a few other congfigurations when the sound blasts. I've checked the leveling settings and reached out to support. Not sure I got a response, but I did get a follow up review on how support did.
