It was a lemon

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had issues with this t.v. from the very beginning. Constantly had to unplug it to get it to unfreeze. Apps wouldn't load, volume wouldn't work and then would go up all of the sudden. We returned it within less than a week. Noticed another on at customer servive that someone else had returned, also.

Great pic, great remote and apps, easy set up

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Set up was easy and fast, remote has app buttons facilitating quicker access, great selection of apps for streaming, and picture and sound quality are excellent. I am not using cable, just streaming via internet.

Not worth it

After less than two years of purchasing, the tv is no longer working. While the light shows it is receiving power, it simply will not turn on. A quick google search shows that this is a common problem with the main board which now needs to be replaced. Do yourself a favor and just spend a little bit more on a tv that will last and not just one you don't know what to do with after less than two years.

So far so good

Bought today at a Walmart store here. Brought home and installed stands. Hard to install screws were hard to see in the little enclosed spot. Finally got them to extra light and extra person. Take a long time to initially update tv. I had no problem there. Then it downloads the apps fairly quickly Color and sound good. will register later too cumbersome in setting up

Beautiful Picture!

We have a 55" Vizio Smart TV in the living room and it has been a great TV with a beautiful picture for at least 8 years. And when we had to switch over to Chromecast for our Google tv plan we were looking for something that would work well with it. And the Vizio TV did work great with it. So when we are now replacing our old tv's that are no longer compatible with our Chromecast we decided to go with Vizio again. And it was a great choice.

Does what I needed plus more.

Bought this TV for our den to watch when cable goes down. Great picture and sound. I won't be using any services that third parties can track. To marketing, I would have purchased two weeks earlier if the remote showed online it had a number pad needed for over air channel selection.

Worst tv I've ever owned

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this a little over a month ago. "Smart" features are ridiculously slow since the beginning. About a week ago, when the tv is first turned on it won't do anything. You then have to go into menu and reboot the tv. Half of the apps have stopped working all together. No updates addressing anything.

Flaking App Software

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The video is decent. The speakers are horrible, a soundbar is a must. The Smartcast software is very flaky. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The only real way to fix it is to do a factory reset which is a hassle. Then hope the next software update doesn't screw it up again.

Forced upgrades to the OS.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Continuously updates the software breaking things and confusing my wife, who's not a technology person. Please give me the ability to decline updates to the OS. I just want to have the TV turn on and go straight to my preferred input.

New model not as good as old model

Had to replace our Vizio that we had for 10 years. Loved it better than the new Vizios. Easy to set up but didn't like the idea of this new one packaged without written instructions. Sound is not as great as our old one. May end up buying a sound bar. The sound has a vibration noise occasionally. The worst thing about this tv is if you're sitting to the sides of it it fades out. You have to sit directly in front of it to see a perfect picture. We had to rearrange our living room chairs! This is disappointing. Our first Vizio was perfect. That's why we purchased this brand again. Next time we might consider a different name brand. Although it's not a horrible tv. Just not as good as our old one.
