Smart TV means Smart TV

I purchased this TV to have a larger set in my living room. I already had 2 Vizio TVs. When I set everything up and turned it on, it automatically connected to DVD/Sound system. I started to program my TV channels but it too was done. I am very happy with the V-Series Vizio thus far.

Do not buy!

I bought this tv only to find out that Smartcast which operates the apps on the tv needs an upgrade. This meant after several hours with support I was told that the tv is not broken, but they are working on an update, but don't know when that will be released. I was told to cast what I wanted to watch from my phone onto the tv. Why would I do that when I bought a smart tv for a reason...back to the store it went.

Do not use with Nvidia shield

Thought I would be able to ignore the smart functions and just use my Nvidia shield to stream. Nope. System incompatibility with CEC between them means they don't turn on together. Very annoying. Stop trying to make TVs smart. I'd rather have the things that plug in be smart.

Hello, the television CEC function should allow power on and off functionality. We’d really love the opportunity to have our tech support team run through some troubleshooting steps to see if we can get the TV up and running for you. When you have a free moment, they’re available through text message, chat, or over the phone. Just go to support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’.

Awesome television

I bought this television earlier this month (6-2020), as an upgrade from my old one. I absolutely LOVE my purchase. It has so many features. It's amazing. Vizio is my brand of choice from now on. It came perfectly packaged, no scratches or dings. It was just as advertised.

Lasts about 3 months

We are on our second one since January...looks like we're going to have to try a different brand since the vizio only works well for about 3 months and then starts lagging or not turning on, we continuously reboot and up date...very frustrating and not worth it.

Love it! Just one issue

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tv has lasted about 3/4 years now. It's great! The only thing is that once in a while the sound will turn off when there's quiet moments in videos/ movies. Problem seems to be resolved on its own and then the issue returns. It's annoying but besides that the tv is great!

Not Working

I set up my new TV just 4 days ago and up until this afternoon, it has been great. Now it will give me the information bar only. No channels at all. I've tried several different things and am now on the Vizio website looking to see if there is something about this under "Support". If not, the TV will go back tomorrow.

Great product!

Very happy with our new Vizio product. We started buying Vizio after one of our Samsung TV died. My first Vizio purchase was nearly 10 years ago and the TV still working perfectly. My infant children (then) put our first Vizio TV to the test. Since then we have purchased three more!

Waste of money!

I bought my tv in December. It has purple and green lines going through the picture. Unfortunately I lost my receipt. I went to the retailer I bought it from to see if they could look it up. They told me I'd have to contact Vizio so I did. I was told they couldn't do anything without the receipt and I'd have to go to the retailer. I explained that I already had and was told to contact them. I asked for a manager to call me and they told me first thing in the morning they would.. we'll they did not so I called back the next day. Same story would not let me speak with anyone else. I bought a Vizio because it's made in the U.S. If a company is so poorly run and don't back there products the shouldn't be in business. So I wasted my money and time trying to resolve the issue. So I can watch tv I purchased a different one certainly not a Vizio. I will let everyone I know that it's a poor brand and not to waste their.

Very Smart TV ..

Love the resolution 4K and the streaming features, I can see YouTube with just a couple of click on the remote without having to indicate what HDMI to use. Very cool product. Very happy . This is my 4th Vizio .. I had an older 55" and it was not 4K and would not work with Amazon .. so I bought this one which is 60" much better.
