An ok tv

I have had nothing but issues with this tv. It won't connect to wifi half the time and the times it is connected it buffers and skips like crazy. It is the only device in the house that does this so I know it isn't the Wi-Fi.

Bad engineering

Good Television with the exception of channel returning to channel 1. If you turn the tv off for any reason you have to fine the channel you were watching. It has to be bad engineering.

Waste of Money

Its 1 year later and this television is stuck in demo mode and doesn't recognize the remote most of the time. I contacted Vizio and of course because this is 9 days past the warranty date they would not help me. So I do not recommend this TV or this brand. We will never make another Vizio purchase again. Their product is junk.

Great TV, but know what you're buying.

This is a great tv, great sound, great picture, yadayada… however, I purchased this smart tv bc I wanted a smart tv for my workout gym. This being a smart tv and a non-Roku tv, I assumed it would have WebOS on it.. my fault yes for the assumption, not knowing Vizio does not have a support for WebOS as does LG or Samsung does. So I am unable to stream certain apps that are not in the App Store such as Bodi Beach body fitness for the P90x and Insanity. That being said, I am still ok with it since I can Cast my phone to it but would've really loved to have WebOs, or an updated App Store. All good tho for the price.

Do not buy

Needed a smart tv for the Spectrum app. The tv took forever to set up and had to add a Vizio account. No where does it tell you that a Vizio account is permanent and you can not end the account. No where does it tell you that Vizio TVs can not download the Spectrum app until after you install and program. Took TV back and got a Samsung Smart TV. Contacted Vizio and can not get rid of Vizio account is permanently attached to you once you are tricked into adding the app. Highly discussed with Vizio as a company and purchase. Wal-Mart was great and has nothing to do with the deceitful nature of the Vizio company.

Freezes while streaming live tv

This tv cannot handle streaming live. It constantly freezes. I know it's this tv because my other tv, laptop, tablets and phones all have no problem streaming live with our internet. This can be the only thing using the internet and it will lock up. For some reason I have the same problem when trying to use the Disney app on this tv as well. It's frustrating.

Hate this tv

I wish it had an interchangeable base or the base in the middle. It can't sit on my dresser like my old tv did, I will have to buy a wall mount now Annnnd I hate that there is no way to turn the volume up or down manually. There are no buttons except for the power button and can't find the remote to change channels and volume.

A TV with limited channels.

The channels for smartcast and the free channels were of no personal interest, no major channels with major live sports events. The sound volume was limited. Beautiful lpicture.. I tried to use air with antanne but buildings all around my ground apartment got only 4 channels. Thought I would be able to cut the cable but no TNT, TBS YES. ABC, CBS THe Mets network or MLBN live baseball games. In the future, if you can figure out how to get them for free channels, will purchase another VISIO .

Hello James, 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. 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. When searching for local channels with an antenna, there are factors like the buildings in the area, position of antenna, and other environmental factors that can help determine what channels are found. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio or channel settings feel free to contact VIZIO support at 844-254-8087.
