Cannot add additional APPS

I purchased this TV and couldn't wait to get it so I would be able to stream shows in my bedroom that my husband doesn't care for. I was very disappointed to find that the only apps I could have were the ones that came on the TV. At least I have Netflix, Hulu and Paramount. I am happy that it is a smart tv and I'll be able to watch it in my bedroom.

Crisp picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this TV during COVID when my son had COVID and he wasn't allowed to leave his room. I decided to put it in my room this year since he's out of the house. I've been very happy with the picture quality and easy link to the apps. The only thing that I wish is that I could get DirecTV app on there too.

Happy Wife

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife was so happy that I installed a new 43' VIZIO, but the sound is not as good as my 43" VIZIO that I bought earlier this month. The picture is of the highest quality. I love both of the 43" VIZIO we bought. Thank you.

What a mess!

Getting the TV out of the box could have been similar to disarming a nuclear missile. The white foam packing material was wedged in so hard I had to use my lawn tractor to pull it out. After attaching the two legs the real nightmare began with the programming. Sometime during the 3 1/2 hours I seriously asked the neighbors 9 year old for advice and guidance. After 20 minutes of gut splitting laughter he had it all set up in the time it took me to go to the kitchen and get him a Popsicle. WHY is it so complicated that a 68 year old retired senior engineer to set up his own TV. I'm going out tomorrow and getting another..

Not loving it!

I have had this TV a few months and never use it. It is sitting next to my old TV, which I do watch. The wi-fi disconnects..always. There are very few shows/movies I would watch that are free. My hope was to eliminate my satellite bill. That doesn't appear to be an option. I can not tell any difference in picture quality from my plain jane TV. I have friends that have smart TV's that are happy with them. I'm just saying it is apparently not for me. So, I regret the purchase.

So-So TV

I bought this for my son's room back in Feb/Mar 2022. It was pretty easy setup, but it would reboot and go back through the same setup a couple times before it was officially setup..... The Smartcast/VIZIO platform works good when it doesn't freeze up. I would go into Disney+, Netflix, etc apps and then sometimes it would take awhile to load, sometimes you would get sound and sometimes not..... would have to reboot tv and reset it to get it to work again..... we haven't been using it a whole lot lately, but continually have to do updates when we first turn it on in awhile.... I've reached out to Vizio a handful of times to get it resolved and all they say to do is we'll push an update to it and have to resetup everything all over again....... overall when it does work, it's an ok tv for my son, but wouldn't recommend for a main living room tv

Excellent tv with one major flaw.

The picture on this tv is excellent for its price point. However it has one major flaw, the speakers. I returned the first one I received thinking one of the speakers was blown or not attached fully. That wasn't the case. The second one had the same exact rattle at mid to high volumes. If you don't need great sound, this is a great tv. If you do, you will need to add a sound bar.

Great picture and sound

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this television a few weeks ago and have been waiting to set up my tv stand before using. It fits perfectly, and adds a great lift to the space. I was worried after seeing negative reviews, but there are absolutely no issues with the pictures or the sound quality. The one issue I have is with the TV stand legs, mine wobble because my electric screwdriver did not have a long enough neck to screw them in all the way. I would need a full length screwdriver. Overall, great!

Please with this product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use Vizio televisions throughout my home, including a sound bar setup. Their compatibility, picture and sound are great. I do have to restart or reboot them about every two months, unfortunately. Otherwise a good solid product.

Every update made this TV worse

This is the most disappointing experience I've ever had with electronics. It's my first smart TV, and I wish I just kept using Roku. I thought it was great at first, but every software update made it less user-friendly and less likely to work. I literally just spent 15 minutes just trying to play ANYTHING on TV at all for background noise, and gave up with no time left to actually watch a show, now. DO NOT BUY THIS TV IF YOU PLAN TO USE AN ANTENNA! I don't know why they'd even say it's compatible when it's not. It wants Wi-Fi even when watching antenna TV. It's ludicrous. I've had it a year and regretted it every single day for 11 months. I will never ever get a Vizio product again as long as I live.
