For the price it's okay...

At first it wasn't operating properly... Next day I turned it on and it was functioning properly... Go figure... It has a glitch but if you press the home button it seems to clear it... Overall not a bad unit... Wish it had Roku built in having to use two remotes is bothersome...

Not impressed

This was bought to replace a Phillips Roku 32 inch for a bedroom that blew out in a power outage. The set-up was so confusing, and one of the screens i needed wasn't coming up. No manual or set-up instructions. You have to go online. Had to keep restarting til it finally came up. Vizios live tv is horrible compared to Roku. Plus, every time you change a channel, it has to refresh, so there is lag time. I've never had that with any TV before. Remote does not have a previous channel button or pause on it. The picture is great, though. I've only had it 3 days but still deciding whether I want to take it back or not. I'm looking for a new TV for the living room and I know it won't be a Vizio.

WiFi password limited to 24 characters

This TV is inexpensive -- around $159, IIRC. I bought it to be able to run pet youtube videos for my bird -- first-world kind of stuff. ;) It functions well, but I literally had to set up a guest WiFi network with a password at 24 characters because this TV cannot connect to a WiFi network with a higher character count, and mine is way higher than that. In the mid 2020s, this is, IMHO, inexcusable.

Don't know what is meant here ...

Top quality Smart TV in this price range. Not able to keep ALL selected channels at the 6x9 aspect ratio. Exc Menu and Settings. Easy to unpack and set up. VIZIO isn't an LG but it's not junk either. Well made. Perfect for the bedroom/basement, etc. Well worth the price and Walmart ships it to you in a couple days. Perfect for the sports game room. .

Great Value

I rated this tv 5 stars, not because everything about it is exceptional, but because it is such a good value. The picture quality, sound and set-up are really good for a 40” tv at this price point . And the Vizio app/platform has some pretty good free stuff and makes navigation easy.

Nice TV, Not Nice Remote!

This is our fourth or fifth Vizio TV. We like the brand and have never had a problem with any of them, except this new one. The TV has a great picture and has all the apps we use, but unfortunately, the volume button on the remote doesn't work some of the time. When you unplug the TV and plug it back in, it will start working again but it's a pain. I will be contacting Vizio for a new remote!

Not good performance

I purchase two Vizio smart TVs and both have the same issues. Picture is great on both, but there are a host of problems. 1. The TVs can only be turned off by unplugging them. Otherwise, they turns back on every 10 mins or so when I use the remote (creepy). 2. If that’s not enough, every two or three days they reset themselves and have to redownload apps, confirm your language and permission s over and over again. I have not had these problems with other Vizio smart TVs in my home. Usually it’s one and done.

Beware of this Vizio model.

We purchased this model due to space limitations. Wanted a larger screen but would not fit. Took it home, hooked it up and tried the setup process. The screen would continuously scroll through bars on screen, then Vizio logo. After a couple of minutes of this the menu would finally pop up. As soon as I tried to make a menu selection the screen would black out and the process would repeat. Tried it several times with negative results. I returned it and got another one from the rack and purchased it. I took it home, unboxed it and plugged it in. The second television had the exact same problem. I contacted the Vizio tech line this time and was advised to try a factory reset which I performed. The issue was not resolved so I returned the second one. It looks like there might be a defective batch of TVs. I don’t think I could have picked out the only 2 bad ones out of the 20 or so in the rack.

The picture quality and ease of use are great, and it is the largest TV that fits into our entertainment cabinet. But the sound quality is "scratchy", especially when the volume is loud and there are action scenes playing. I use the TV speakers for casual viewing, but I had to buy a sound bar for watching movies.
