SLOW!

We were so unsatisfied with the slowness of when you turn the tv on as opposed to when you finally got a picture and then it took forever to get the apps on. I know it’s not our internet because we had a tv in its place that worked great, we just wanted a larger tv.

Vizio is the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am happy with my purchase. I have a 55" in the living room and i just love it. I am replacing a broken TV that I bought about a year and a half ago. My 55" has lasted me longer than that and that's why I purchased the Vizio brand.

Vizio Vixin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was originally very disappointed with this brand new Vizio 40 inch TV. Now I think that it’s possible that the HDMI port problem gone. I’m not 100% sure just yet but I will keep an eye on the original problem and see what happens in the upcoming days.

Programming was too difficult for the avg. Persona

I brought it back to the store. The programming instructions were complicated and were too convoluted and did not respond to the security code sent via the website. This product was obviously developed by persons with a high technical ability. all this product did was frustrate me.

Good TV, Setup Unnecessarily Complicated

We have multiple Vizio TVs and are happy with them overall. Had to make a new purchase and chose a Vizio again. We were unhappy to see that opening an account/using the app was now a mandatory part of setup. We found the ability to select input for something different than your content not intuitive. We also set up a new tv at the same time for an elderly relative who does not use a smart phone and she would have struggled to set up the TV on her own.

Could be better, but is pretty good.

Having to get an account to use a TV is abominable, anti business as far as I am concerned. (any product) Has good audio , it needs a few more jacks on it, video-audio LR. It works very good, receives the WiFi in the basement like no problem at all. The picture is just fine, but like I said the sound is not all squaky like these thin TV's do. Price is very good, and would say to buy it.

Nothing to write home to Mother about

The VFD40M0808 40" was a replacement for our legacy (12yearold) Vizio E3901-A1 40" screen. The older set had a defect at the bottom of the screen barely noticeable yet we chose to replace. In doing so...much was given up! The legacy TV has more features of value that the new TV does not...all setting related. Very few options on new TV. Overall...We could have continued using old TV...we really didn't gain much! Or perhaps looked to there brands. The only 2 features we like are Alexa and Chromecast compatibility.

Seems to do everything.

Picture is amazing. I do have a few nits to pick that I believe people would appreciate. The first involves the bluetooth option. I noticed that there was a definite delay between the audio and the picture when using bluetooth headsets. This can be very distracting. The second issue involves setup. When I use the set I normally want to use the cable input (HDMI1). At present that means I first have to go through the menu to select cable. I would really like it if the TV could be made to come up in cable mode and then if I wish to make use of all the other features offered by VISIO I could navigate to the main menu to make use of them. In other words it would be nice to define the "normal" behavior at setup time.

Easy Set-Up / Remote Needs Color

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy set up! Wish there was a remote that wasn’t black … the buttons are quite difficult to see when you have vision impairment. Even if the buttons had some color to them would be helpful. Everything just blends in!

Very poor operating instructions.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Where is the menu button? Gave up trying to find out how to change language after initial setup. Too complicated to operate. Finding instructions is much too complicated. May be fine for engineers who designed it.
