Take a pass on this one

I'm sure how this TV has high reviews. We put it in our kids play room and it's been nothing but a headache. It's impossibly slow, the home screen takes several minutes to load, apps and channels either take upwards of 5 minutes or just never load at all. The audio is terrible, everything sounds like you're listening to a recording on someone's phone... 0/10 cannot recommend. This is a piece of junk.

Hello marjorie, as televisions continue to have larger screens with thinner profiles and sleeker bezels, there is less room for large speakers. To help get the best audio quality out of your VIZIO televisions speakers, we’ve included settings like DTS Studio Sound to provide the highest performance possible, while maintaining the thin, sleek, bezel-less profile of your television. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio settings feel free to contact VIZIO support. For top of the line audio performance, you may also look into purchasing a VIZIO Sound Bar, there are several models available with wireless subwoofers for enhanced bass, rear speakers for true surround sound, and our new line of Atmos Sound Bars. In regards to loading times, there could be a few things that cause lag or apps to not respond correctly, and I would like to learn more so we can assist with troubleshooting. Please visit support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’. We’ve got agents ready to chat, text message, or speak with you on the phone.

Great Tv at an affordable price

I must say that for a Sony TV guy I was impressed with the quality of this tv. So far it has been great and it has some nice features that I wasn't expecting with a bargain tv. I don't use it for wifi or smart tv stuff, but for regular tv and connection to my pc it works wonderfully and the picture quality is very nice.

Good but not quite for us this time.

We loved all the features with the new "smartness" however, we knew that we would have to get a soundbar which we aren't able to purchase right away. We had the TV next to our air conditioner and could not hear even at 100%. If you ha e a quieter household (or AC), then you may enjoy it. We love VIZIO though and are going to try a higher series and 50". We'll let you know about that one!! (We returned and are upgrading.)

Bad TV

This television hasn't been working right since I got it. It shuts off right in the middle of movies and shows,then won't let me watch them? It's now not letting me watch anything. It was set up properly and hooked up to a very strong internet. I just can't figure out what's wrong!

horrible

I bought the tv online and it came broken, fedex should be picking up the tv tomorrow but my NEW and replacement tv was supposed to come today, then it delayed to Sunday, and now it's cancelled. This is just extremely irritating and irresponsible on walmarts part. Just do a pickup order or buy from store instead because they aren't careful with packages.

Rarely, damage will occur during transportation, and since our packaging has been certified to prevent damage while in transit, we’d recommend you reach out to the shipping company and retailer to file a claim. Most shippers will allow you to file a claim and reimburse you for the cost of the television.

Would Be Nice If It Came With A Functioning Remote

Nothing like getting a tv and the sound won't turn down! Remote they sent is faulty and volume buttons do not work. Trying to figure out who to contact for a replacement remote is such a hassle! Will definitely stick back with LG and Samsung next go round.

Just saying.

Great tv, The free channels are cool too. Video games have really good graphics, All in all, for $200 this tv is well worth the cost. It gives you more than you paid for. The 10 mins of updates when i first plugged it in was annoying. But hey, Cost and quality, 10.

This "smart tv" has got to be the "stupidest" tv ever. It locks up, the smartcast will not work except thru a Hotspot. It cant be controlled thru its remote. You power on the tv it goes to smartcast and locks up. Never will i ever purchase another Vizio tv, "smart" or "dumb" either one. Absolutely ridiculous....Bull___t!!!

Check your ports for compatibility!

I had to return this TV the next day after having it delivered. Could not determine on-line what type of ports for hml hookups (flat or round.) Went to store - no "out of box" model was on display. Nothing on sides of box (there used to be icons) to let you know types of hookups. Took a chance. These TVs used to have two ports to accomodate flat and round cable lines. Now - only one. Wrong one - only round and my hookup is flat. Whoever decided to remove printing the icons from the outsides boxes - to let you see what ports are on the TV backs - made a major consumer information mistake. I lost much time because of this.
