JUST AMAZING!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't realize how bad my TV speakers were until I got this VIZIO sound bar. The sound is crisp, full, and makes everything more enjoyable to watch. Super easy to set up and looks great too. I absolutely love this product and feel like it was money well spent.

Pleasant Surprise

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 20 year old flat screen went dark! I've had other Visio flat screens that worked well so I bought one off the shelf to replace it. I thought it would take a while to get it performing and to get used to the controls but it was up and running in less than 10 minutes. The voice prompts made it an easy process. It was affordable, had a great picture and the programming was easy to tweak to our satisfaction. We're really happy with this Visio! I'd give it 5 stars but I'm sure something could be improved. I don't know what…

Difficult to set up with cable service

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't like that the TV won't work unless you download their app and provide your personal information. Every time the TV is turned off and back on it defaults back to Visio service home page. The input function to change to HDML1 or anything else won't work with a universal remote, you have to use the Visio remote. If you don't mind that it's a good price for the picture quality

Doesn't work right

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally connected my Vizio to the internet to see what was available on the Vizio Watch Free. When I press the button on the remote I get the channel pop up and it tries to go to channel 5 instead of bringing up the screen for Vizeo Free. Not a very "smart tv"

The worst purchase I made!

I can't afford most smart televisions, that's why I purchase this one that was on sale. What a mistake! I've had this product just over a week and Every Day while watching the tv in any one of my apps the tv freezes. When it freezes it takes 10 to 60 seconds, or never refreshes. While enduring the permanent freezing process the power button will not work, leaving me to unplug it for a reboot. During the frequent buffering before it freezes the volume button causes the tv to freeze temporarily and hitting the volume button several times the tv freezes and the volume goes up or down and and freezes again for only one notch of the several times I pressed the volume button, then I have to wait for the volume button to activate once with for the three or more times it was pressed, leaving me to wait for it to complete the action of the volume button complete the action of going up or down and waiting for it to go up or down just once and it freezes refreshes freeze again, go up or down another level just once and I have to wait for the process to complete because I hit the volume button several times. For example, if I hit the volume button several times or more I have to endure the volume to go up or down Just once freeze and go up or down another level freeze, go up or down one level freeze refresh and go up or down another level, if I had hit the bottom 10 times I have to wait for the volume process to complete One level freeze and refresh 10 times. Most days if it it permanently freezes I have to unplug the tv to reboot. The experience of watching a tv is supposed to be relaxing, all these freezing problems causes frustration and annoyance.

You get what you pay for!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the 3rd Vizio TV I've purchased, and each one has been a little worse than the previous. This one is slow to respond to the remote, and it doesn't bring up the channel I select; I have to use the +channel button to get to the right place after numerically entering the channel I really want.

Amazing features! Amazing picture. Amazing price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the 32-in full HD Vizio for my camper fifth wheel. This TV is an upgrade from an old 24-in Samsung TV. The first movie we watched was avengers and end game Blu-ray. It looked fantastic. This TV rivals a more expensive Sony 4K TV we have in the living room that says a lot. I'm really impressed how far Vizio has come. I would like to comment on how cool the app is that syncs up to your TV. It's your secondary remote. It also has access to all the settings and features and apps. Again, I'm really happy with the operating system for the TV and how fluid and smooth and intuitive it is.

Excellent picture, complicated navigation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed a tv this particular size. I wanted a roku operating system. Its easier to set up and navigate. But the store didnt have one in the size i needed. This vizio has an excellent picture. But set up, navigation and the app interface are more difficult to work with

Couldn't Have Been Easier to Set Up

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with my Vizio purchase. There was none of the usual angst with setup. I bought the Vizio brand because I have had good experience with its quality and reliability. I always get a great product at a great price. I have two other Vizio televisions in my home--one 12 years old, and the other nearly 20. I have never had a moment's trouble from either.

Good enough for the price

Purchased this on a Monday. The quality of the picture was great but I noticed there's a lag with the remote even though the batteries are new and the wifi connection is strong. The tiles on the home screen also seem to go out and force me to unplug/plug the television often. Minor issues that shouldn't happen within the first three days of purchase.
