Don't buy, will break after a year.

After a year or so the screen became fuzzy. Loss of detail. Then started the other problems. Smart cast stopped working. Kept giving errors. Now it doesn't see the cable box. Tried factory reset still has all these problems! Piece of junk! Waste of money! We never even used it that much!

Great with one exception

This tv has been great for the most part. But every now and then, it get hard to operate/restarting after coming from the Google Photo screensaver function. I see a blank black screen and can not get back to the smartcast screen. I have to unplug my TV and plug it back it to restart the smart cast. Other than that, it is a good TV.

Remote/screen

The remote has to be press very hard to input information. I don't believe it works how it should. Changing from screens is some what hard because the time it's set up to changed the screen quickly. I have had two Vizio TVS and never had these problems.

Awesome TV

This is an awesome TV, especially for the cost and size. Very clear picture and easy to navigate to what I want to watch. I did have to use the online way to get cable sit up because I had never purchase this brand but it worked great with just one additional step.

Disappointing Screen Brightness

The power cord sent with this unit was defective, so before I could even set the tv up, I had to wait 2 weeks for a cord to arrive. If your room is bright (sun not hitting the screen), the screen is washed out, so viewing is impossible. Now the screen is going blank in the middle of my programs. I think I got a lemon....

A brand I will avoid from now on

The crystal clear 4K display had me excited to replace my 10 year old HDTV. But pretty soon I began to notice the lag time between pushing a button on the remote and seeing the results on the display. Recently, Vizio integrated it's "WatchFree" feature into the broadcast (local antenna) input making it very difficult to navigate the local stations I've watched since I was a kid. No matter how many times I favorite certain channels or remove other channels, Vizio keeps them in the guide along with an excessive amount of advertisements. The TV is buggy as can be, sometimes the sound will stop working until the TV is unplugged and restarted. I've been more impressed with ALL the other streaming hardware brands that Vizio does not want me to mention in a review, and wish I had kept my 'dumb' TV and connected it to one of those products. I already bought the Vizio sound bar (because the built -in speakers are not great) after I bought the TV so I could careless if I win a sound bar.

Great Purchase

Although I am still learnings all the product has to offer, I am enjoying it tremendously. I now understand why they call it a SMART TV. The size is perfect for my entertainment center, the picture is crisp, and the sound is massive. Most of all I like watching YouTube and streaming shows using Smartcast instead of a tablet. This is the best purchase I have made so far.

terrible sounding tv, with black lines

over a month now with my vizio tv. sound quality is terrible and no settings anywhere to fix it. none.....also when you try to get a really nice picture and your right in front, then while watching tv these black lines come and go as they please. i check the setting and had to put them back to factory settings. thats the only way to get rid of black lines. sorry i did purchase this model. really sad to have this stuff out on shelves and black lines seemed as if i were watching a very very old television. sound quality too. bad really bad

Love my new tv!

I haven't had an upgrade ever that I've bought in my own until this tv. An I love it!!!!! Smooth format from the different options. Remote control is nice. I do wish it had a microphone it it thought to use speech commands. But other than that the design and overall use I am highly satisfied. It also pairs good with my sound bar.

Perfect

Purchased this unit for a very large room in our home. Price was excellent, setup was a breeze and the picture and functionality outstanding. My better half (who can be a bit discerning) loves the set as well and has commented numerous times about the quality of the picture and how well the set goes within the room. I'd highly recommend this television.
