bad idea tv

This was a mistake on my part. It was very hard to set up, than when I got to the end I needed a smart fon to read qr code. I don't have a smart fon, so I wasted an afternoon trying to get it to work. It would of been nice to know this kind of stuff before I bought it.

    Annoying green screen if death

    As long as you don't mind resetting the TV multiple times a week, you won't mind having this TV! The green screen of death! It is absolutely annoying. There is also a lag of response when you press the buttons on the remote. It the sound is decent and when the picture is working, it is crisp and clear.

    NO. JUST NO.

    Just get another brand. This TV has sooooo many technical problems. And I encountered every. Single. One. In like the first month I had it. I fixed most issues by buying a $50 Roku. I should have just went with another brand. PLEASE do your research first. I did mine and I regret buying this. I don't drive so returning was near impossible.

    The quality is OK but the only issue that I have is the Internet service. It takes this time to load any of your smart TV apps that you watch on your phone on your TV is most likely due to the fact of my cape the quality is OK but the only issue that I have is the Internet service. It takes this time to load any of your smart TV apps that you watch on your tv. Might be cause of internet service

    Great price for great TV

    I purchased this television sight unseen but was pleasantly surprised of the visual quality. It is smaller than expected but that was my error. Very happy with ny purchase

    Buyer beware

    This tv is terrible. In order to hear it from 8 feet away you have to put the volume on 100(loudest possible.) and then it's still too quiet. The operating system glitches on half of the streaming apps and you have to reboot it almost every day. The WiFi receiver is weak so you have to place it close to your router if you don't have a WiFi extender in your home. When you use the remote to change anything you have to wait for 5-10 seconds for it to execute-no it's not the remotes batteries I tried swapping them 2 times. Poor quality. The only saving grace is the picture is pretty good.

    I love my new tv, but I'm not too impressed with the new streaming service. Too much work to find the station one wants to watch. But that's not the tv's fault. There is a terrific picture. The remote is easy to use. When the system isn't buffering the sound is clear and crisp. This is my second Vizio, I only got a new one because I needed a smart television.

    The brand was a waste of my money. It becomes stuck on the channel so you have to keep refreshing it, the volume sucks %26 the picture fades out. That's what I get for being cheap you get what you pay for. I should've stayed with TCL.

    disappointing sound

    The picture is clear in this tv, but the sound is not good. It sounds as if the speakers are blown. i missed the return window because we didnt set it up right away, so I will need to buy bluetooth speakers and see if they work better.

    Visio 40 tv

    Limited to this size in order to fit cabinet. Replaced a 15 year old Visio that was zapped by lightning. Hope this one works as well and lasts as long as the other one. Easy setup and connection to WiFi.

    Worst Vizio tv ever.

    I have owned nothing but vizio tvs. From the time they first started making the. that tv still works great. this new tv that I just bought has had nothing but problems. the HDMI ports wont play video from a PS4. that was the first problem. next problem is that because it is a streaming tv it needs Wi-Fi to stream only it cant keep a Wi-Fi signal strong enough to stream amazon Prime movies. simple fix would be to wire the tv only there is on Wi-Fi port in the tv. so now I have a 250$ streaming tv that doesnt do anything that i need it to do. total waste of money. Vizio has begun making garbage TVs. guess you get what you pay for. my advice to anyone buying a tv is spend the extra 50$ and go with a LG or Samsung of the same size. im sure you ...

    Probably stop shopping at Walmart again.

    To be honest i almost took the TV back I don't appreciate how Walmart stops me at the door to look to see my receipt. Over a purchased that the person just watched me go through the line and pay for it almost made me return it I stopped going to Walmart for about 5 or 6 year ago over this and more likely I will stop shopping at Walmart because of this incident.

    Not user friendly

    I replaced a n Amazon Fire Toshiba 32” with this. Bad move. This tv will not allow you to put most of your own Apps on here such a as Discover, TLC…. You cannot add a Bluetooth speaker. The remote doesn't have a pause or a microphone. The Apps you use don't move to the front of line. You mostly have to mirror your apps to tv from another device which it does have. I like the size

    Vizio

    I am replacing my older Vizio TV with this one after it had long-served its purpose and gave out. This newer model, D40f-J09, has a lot of smart features, great sound and a vibrant picture. The only thing I wish it had is built-in bluetooth (but i can attach a separate bluetooth receiver myself which i intend to do). The only major complaint is that adding the two legs to the bottom of this TV due to their design is outrageously-complicated and caused me to curse quite a bit.
