TV WITH WALMART ACCOUNT

I never had the Vizio brand of TV. I ordered it for a child. I was unaware that a Walmart account was needed to operate the TV. So I made a secondary account using my backup email account. I feel an invasion of privacy. The sound quality is poor. I’m going to try to return the tv or sell it.

Not what I bargained for

Great overall value for the money. I like that it includes a lot of apps and it has a pretty decent picture quality. The sound is a bit low. My major issue is that this TV does not hold WiFi signal. It is horrible and extremely frustrating. You can't watch anything without the signal going out at least every two to five minutes.

Don’t buy

No I would not recommend this product. The first day I got it I had to create an account just to even get it to start up. Then on top of that it lags so bad. Turn volume up/down it freezes, then jumps straight high or low. Can’t pause stuff sometimes it pauses itself. Then I have to unplug it to reset it cause it don’t have a reset button on the tv anywhere. Multiple reviews saying the same thing. Only wished I would have read them before buying.

Worst remote ever

The remote is an absolute nightmare, smooth, useless in the dark. I have to find a flashlight %26 a pair of glasses any time I need to change a channel, volume, HDMI function. I had to spend a ridiculous amount of time filling out personal information on the Vizio screen before the TV would function. The HDMI function just shifts randomly without request, interrupting viewing, and there are only 2. Person installing said there was no place to attatch direct cable. Picture is ok, slightly dull, slightly green. There may be a way to fix this, i will have to figure that out. Has a lovely feature that plays beautiful relaxing music with lovely slightly animated restful scenes, mountains, cabin with fireplace. My objection is that it just randomly switches over to that on it's own. i would have returned it but didn't have time .

Only Buy If You Have An Internet Connection

This TV Requires you to setup a VIZIO account, Requires Internet connection at start up before you can do anything and kept stalling or timing out while in setup mode. I had purchased 2 of these for separate areas and both stalled out taking about 1-2hrs to setup on each tv.

Great Purchase

This was I think the best purchase I’ve ever made in my life. It has a great picture everything works great and I love the price it is so very much worth the price. You can control it from your phone you get all kinds of channels and movies FREE with the app.

Absolute Trash

Absolute trash. I bought 3 of these because I have had and loved Vizio products in the past. I replaced 3 Roku tv’s with this junk. All 3 glitch, lock up, constantly have to be restarted and mind you they’ve been up less than a week. Now I know why they were on sale. Now before I get ahead of myself I have spectrums 500 mps service. I work from home and have no problems with 5 Roku tvs. I upgrade 3 of them from 32” to 40” Vizio and this is what I get. What a mistake.

Christmas Gift

The pickup was pretty easy and fast. Returning home the steps on how to setup up was pretty simple, the instructions was easy to follow. The picture and sound quality are great. I bought this Tv as a Christmas Gift for my mom to have in her bedroom which was a upgrade from the previous one she had. She loves and enjoys her new tv

Value and Quality

It's worth the value and more. Installation was relatively easy. I was waiting on a family member to come and set it up for me , but after waiting for over a month, I decided to do it myself. I am a senior and didn't really want the hassle of setting it up, but to my surprise and delight it went smoothly . Preinstalled apps help a lot especially if you already subscribe to some of the streaming services. Once I got the hang of what I was doing it went smoothly. I am extremely pleased with my purchase.
