DO NOT BUY

I purchased this tv twice, and had to returned twice. It keeps freezing. On my second one, it was not only freezing, but apps wouldn't work. I called Vizio and they told it was defective and will send new one within 5 to 7 business days. Never got replacement, so returned to Walmart. Don't waist your time and money. Don't get a Vizio.

Trash software, not a smart tv, just a normal tv

The whole ui and custom app store doesn't work, all the apps launch then crash, or don't open at all, absolutely waste of money, its better to just put your money into a slightly more expensive tv with a smart tv app like roku or fire tv built in then a custom companies system.

NO PICTURE SIZE ADJUSTMENT!!

This piece of crap will not allow you to adjust the aspect ratio or even zoom the movie or tv show so that it fits your tv screen! ALL tv's have that option these days! So almost all of the movies available to watch will appear as a narrow strip across your tv screen. I HATE THAT!! The "WatchFree" app isn't any better than using tubi, free online. As a matter of fact, most of it is tubi tv. But the interface is worse making you spend more time looking for something to watch than actually watching something. Otherwise the tv is okay. I may return it just because it doesn't have a working aspect ratio adjuster or zoom feature!! GRRR!!!!!!!!!!

loved the vivid colors from this tv, that is why i gave it 2⭐sadly that is its only good feature. this tv freezes all the time. requiring customers to unplug and restart constantly. it happens in the middle of shows, while looking for something to watch , any time of day or night. more frustrating than it is worth. sincerely wish i hadn't purchased it.

Hello Becky, thank you for taking time to leave us your feedback. Typically, when a TV freezes up, that can be fixed with a power cycle. To power cycle a TV you will want to unplug the power and then hold the power button on the back of the TV for at least 5-10 seconds while unplugged. After those 5-10 seconds go ahead and plug the power back in and try again. If issues persist or you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us by going to support.vizio.com and clicking ‘contact us’.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only reason I am giving a 4 is that the Smart TV only operates on the 2.4 Ghz band. I realize this was an older TV model so no issues as we have a dual band modem in our system and the TV works fine.

I love the TV. but, I'd appreciate a manual with it. I have nothing explaining anything about the remote or how to set the remote with my cable system. I've never purchased something like this without a hand held, written manual. if you have one, please let me know so you can send me one. thank you.

Expected NEW received USED

The TV itself works just fine. I was a bit skeptical when I received remote and batteries in a ziploc bag inside the box. I was even more surprised that the streaming apps came with people's username and passwords already logged in. I'm rather disappointed in the fact I purchased what I believed to be a new television, only to find out someone already test drove this one. Walmart please check your returned goods ASAP. I hope Wal-Mart will do what is right in this situation. I should receive a credit since normally the open box policy is discounted

Not worth the money in any way.

Had this tv for a little over a month and the remote stopped working on only the buttons from the middle down. Unusual and it's nothing I could have done because the remote is always in one spot and barely even used maybe once every day to every other day. The tv itself glitches out or takes a minute to respond when you go into what you want to do or watch.

Returning

I am taking this TV back. You can't stream Spectrum, or any sports channels unless you want to pay $50 monthly for a service that does. The remote takes forever to respond and the screen has these light blue areas in the all the corners. The sound is muffled.
