Great picture, but...

Just picked up the new VIZIO V-Series 50" and the resolution is perfect, sound is great, but the smartcast feature is shaky at best. When attempting to first run my tv, the tv wouldn't connect, then after getting connection to the WiFi, I was able to get Amazon Video and Netflix setup, but after attempting to setup Hulu the entire smartcast system stopped working and, while netflix and Amazon Video still work, no other hotkey (VUDU/Disney+/Redbox/Hulu) or the smartcast homescreen work. I have tried multiple factory resets, soft restarts and nothing fixes the SmartCast features. I'm going to try and call customer support this afternoon, but I am about ready to return the TV.

Good so far

I just bought this and setup was fairly easy, except for the fact that I can't get it to accept a view higher than the 1080i setting; this is supposed to be 4K. My grandson son has a VIZIO TV and I'll have to have him show me how to access the internet and free shows/movies.

Vizio v series 55"

I've had Vizo tv's before and they all had great picture . This one is great also and I'm not disappointed. I usually play Xbox one x on monitor and hooked it up and was surprised on how good the picture is on this size tv and was able to use all 4k settings on xbox. I gave it only 4 star's because with all features the remote is harder to use than any tv remote I've had before, it took awhile to get use to

Perfect For My Needs

When I first decided to buy this TV, I had no knowledge of the many features that came with it such as AirPlay, Smartcast, and the wide variety of built-in apps that make the set more enjoyable. That combined with the amazing size and view of the screen make me really appreciate the quality that Vizio puts into their products.

Very Glitchy

I bought this just a few months ago & am already having problems. The volume on TV isn't operating correctly. It gets stuck to the point I have to unplug, wait a minute, & plug back in. Still haven't figured out the volume problem. Can't beleive it is only 3 months old.

Great picture

Overall I like the TV. I also have 3 other of different sizes. My biggest CON is the remotes suck. Buttons stick. Drop it and it's all over the place. Come on I cant believe that your designer didn't see this. Does not fit at all in your hand. If center button is not pushed square on you set of buttons you wish you hadn't. Thus is the first remote I have EVER held that makes me want to mash it up against the wall. OVERALL the tv itself is AWESOME.

Ehh

I bought this on a whim when my old tv quit working.. and this tv has horrible sound quality (the audio will blare loudly but you'll have to turn it up to hear talking). The biggest issue is I constantly have to unplug it to restart the tv.. the remote won't work half the time. Don't know what's wrong with this thing but very disappointed in the quality of this Vizio.

Lots of features & good picture for price.

I bought this as an early Christmas gift for the household. Almost immediately I noticed the sound of people talking did not match their mouth movement. It was very frustrating. If I changed the channel, then went back to the desired channel a couple of times, the problem would clear up or at least improve. However, after about six weeks of use, I'm not noticing the problem as much now.

Nice tv but came with problems

I bought this tv almost 2 weeks ago. Got home and set it up and everything worked fine except the Netflix app which is the main reason I purchased it. Called immediately and let them know what was going on and that I did all the troubleshooting. Made me do all the steps all over again only to have same problem. So basically I bought a brand new defected tv. They set up a appointment for a technician to come fix it which I still have been getting the run around about til this day. If it's not fixed soon just returning it and getting my money back (ALWAYS KEEP RECEIPTS!). Was a big fan of Vizio but now will start trying out other brands.

Please read.

Paid 300 for a 50 inch tv that can run 120 FPS, all good on that, volume is ridiculous, tv has to be all the way up to barely hear it, bought a sound bar for it, doesn't work because the o ot sound bar that will work in the vizio tv has to be a vizio brand.
