not happy at all

Ive had nothing but trouble with this TV. It's to the point that whenever I turn it on, I dont know if the TV will work or not. It is constantly losing connection to wifi. The remote does not work all the time. I end up having to unplug the tv, wait, and plug it in again hoping that will fix the problem. sometimes it does, sometimes it does not. Keep in mind, I have my TV on a high plant shelf in my bedroom. That means everytime I need to unplug it, i have to go out to my garage and lug in a ladder. Its a real pain. I have 4 other TV's in the house and not one of them gives me any problems.

Awesome, love it, so much better than Roku.

I did not want a Roku television! This TV is so awesome it has everything and more that I could ask for. So glad we decided to go with this television. The apps on this TV are so much better than ruko and so much easier to use. I would recommend this to everyone.

Vizio is a new favorite.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a Vizio 24" D Series as a Christmas present. I am enjoying the ease of the tv. The functions are easy to use. Many of the popular apps are available to use and preprogrammed in. It has a great picture.

Absolutely HATE my tv

I wish I had never bought this piece of CRAP! Worst mistake I've made was purchasing a Visio Smart TV! The intelligent people who are not competent enough to get the firmware issue taken care of since April of 2021 need to be removed from their position. I have to deal with this problematic tv typically 3x a week! Each call to support takes at least 30 minutes and they usually end up doing a factory reset 95% of the time. Beyond frustrating going through all the bs steps when we eventually get to the factory rest that I mention in the beginning of the phone calls. I highly recommend you purchase a different brand than Visio! I have 3 other smart tv's and have had zero issues with them!

Awesome Product

My wife wanted a slightly larger tv for the bedroom so we purchased this 40” Vizio after great success with two other Vizios we still own. It was ready to go right out of the box. The only issue is when I switch to Vizio free tv it was difficult (for me anyway) to switch back to cable.

Visio 43" tv

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this Vizio to replace my old Vizio. I love this brand cause it always shine though all others. The price is right, the performance is the best and the extras are amazing. Only had it for a month but enjoying all the upgrades from my old Vizio.

You get what you pay for… trash

This TV is another example of “you get what you pay for”. I bought this for my bedroom… just wanted to stream and have a decent picture. It does stream and does have a decent picture. However, there is such terrible lag that I spend more time waiting for screen to respond to the remote commands than watching anything. The speaker quality is atrocious!! I don't expect much from television speakers but this is horrible… even with the bass turned down there is buzzing from the tv enclosure. Don't waste your money!! I will be replacing this television and throwing this one in the trash where it belongs. Sorry Vizio… just speaking the truth.

Bad purchase

do not buy this tv. Constantly gets stuck on off mode or on mode. have to unplug tv to reset. Updates makes you jump thru hoops just to get to the channel you want to want watch. Latest problen tv is stuck on vizio free channel. Can't watch live tv. Tried to reset for 30 minutes. Next the remote will become a permanent fixture in the tv. Very disappointed in this SMART TV.

Great picture, unreliable software

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Software/firmware updates automatically with sometimes surprising results. Some recents, for example: Change channels and volume gets muted, so the mute button must be pressed each time to get sound I use antenna for OTA local channels, but after the latest update the channel selection does not loop to the lowest channel number as i scroll past the highest local channel number - it then enters streaming internet channels; i have to backtrack to get back into local OTA channels Previous firmware provided a memory function so the if i switched to a different channel, then pressed the PREV button to look at the first channel, then later powered off the TV, the later still powered back on, the TV would hold both the current channel and the same previous channel as existed before the power down. Now it does not. TV is still usable, but issues like this are annoying. Every automatic firmware update seems to introduce some new annoying function - or lack thereof - that must be figured out.

Couldn't get the colors right on it

Ended up returning it because the picture had to muck pink and green that I couldn't get out no matter what i did. After playing with it for 2 days I finally returned it. To because it was the perfect size for where I wanted it and I liked all the other features of it
