40 inch vizio

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this back in April If I remember correctly. We'll after owning the tv for a short amount of time we have had apps that stopped working . We did all the recommended items and even did a total reset to factory settings. The apps still don't work. I find it to be inconvenient since we only stream. The tv was great in the beginning but now the most watched apps we enjoy watching we have no access to. I keep being told you are working on a solution buts it's been months now since I reached out to you with this issue. We are now considering replacing this tv that works fine and is only 6 months old.

Smart TV, clumsy user interface

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I expect more then I get with this tv. The UI prioritizes Vizio content. I want to just choose from my 3 apps YouTube TV, Prime video, and Netflix. Everything the is a distraction. It takes 3 clicks to get to the recent apps collection, which is down on the bottom of the screen and so small it almost disappears amidst the clutter of everything else. The orange highlight on the icon is very thin and not apparent given the amount of other orange content. Finally, the lengthy boot time and slow response times makes this TV seem 20 years old.

Hate this TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Transitioning from standard tv to Smart TV and it is awful. The time it takes to get to a channel that you want... the show is over! Takes way too many moves to get to anything. The commercials are unbelievably too frequent and too long.

Great picture, Streaming apps are buggy

The picture quality is excellent. Set-up was easy and straight forward. However, when using applications like Hulu, and Paramount +, ESPN, etc..the video stream is choppy, almost to the point of stop motion. The only remedies I could find in support are soft resets (uplugging for 10 minutes) or accomplishing a factory reset. The factory is a pain, because I had to input my log-in information in again. These still did not solve the problem. Most other TVs you can uninstall the apps and reinstall them and this will, more often than not, resolve these types of issues. However, with Vizio this is not an option. You can only remove certain applications. So, In order to make this TV watchable, I have to use a Roku player. There is no issues with stream quality with the Roku player, so the issue is with this TV. It's a relatively inexpensive solution, but why should I have to purchase a Roku player to be able to watch my brand new smart TV. Bad product Vizio.

Easy setup, great picture and a happy granddaughte

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Vizio has always offered one of the best TV's to the consumers. Setup was easy and the apps offered were perfect. The results provide a very happy granddaughter and a Papa can't ask for anything more.

Awful Tv

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this TV on Saturday October 4th 2025 the quality of the picture is awful, it was tedious to set the TV up and when I was watching a movie it would snap out of the movie and go back to the home screen so today October 6th 2025 I'm taking his TV back and buying a different brand of a television.

TV is great except for the stands

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always bought vizio -- very happy. But COME ON, the little stands are a PITA, and you have to have just the right size screwdriver (#10). This is archaic. Surely if IKEA can develop easy put together, snap in, stands, Vizio can?

Good TV, cheap price, stupidest setup ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just wanted a TV with an HDMI input. I did not want to download another app, sign up for more accounts, or have my TV usage monitored. In the end, I just wanted to plug in my device and use what I had already set up. I know being tracked and having my data sold is part of the price of buying a cheap TV, but there seems to be no option other than to do the most basic sign-up using fake information so they won't track you.

Smart TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 2 weeks AGO. I need it mainly for regular channels. I HATE IT!! When I turn it on, it goes straight to the streaming and I have to look through the settings just to find regular tv broadcasting!

Glitches

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since I have bought this TV, it has consistently glitched, experienced an error or crashed. It's not the connection, everything is up to date, it's been reset, unplugged/plugged back in….No other device in my house has issues.
