Features and pictures are excellent.

I purchased this TV about 1 month ago and it was easy to set up and enjoy. I wanted a smart TV I could use out by the pool and cast from my iPhone. The option to cast works great where you have no cable or satellite set up. Price was great and it has every feature I need.

Good tv

Bought this tv on Black Friday because my old tv wasn't a smart tv. Good tv only problem is the sound isn't very good would suggest getting a sound bar because it's difficult to hear conversations on movies also has hookups for older devices which is a plus

Awesome definition but... SmartCast

We are enjoying our new TV's picture... however... SmartCast leaves much to be desired. There are a few apps, such as CrunchyRoll, that are not supported... that I would really like to see support for. Anytime we want to watch CrunchyRoll, I end up having to turn the XBox One on.... because Visio doesn't have an app for it. Another issue we have with SmartCast is quite frequently, at least 6 times since we got the tv almost 2 months ago, SmartCast just stops working completely. Even the buttons on the remote will not work, except for Netflix for some reason... However no apps, including Netflix, shows on SmartCast... the only resolution that I have found is unplugging the TV for 30 seconds and plugging it back in. It gets frustrating when you're doing this almost once a week.

BEST TV I HAVE EVER OWNED

I bought a new 50" VIZIO for the family room and moved my 10 year old and perfectly good VIZIO 45" to a bed room. The picture clarity on the 50" is a bit better, however, the other is still very good. The reason I chose VIZIO over other brands is because I have had ZERO problems, easy set up and exceptional clarity. I would not take a chance of another brand. A sound bar will dramatically the audio capability

Decent tv for the price.

I bought this 3 months ago and I e only had a few incidents where the tv was unresponsive. The sound quality is horrible you have to have it up to like 60/70 to actually hear it. But since I game with it it's not an all the time issue until it's time to watch tv with the family. The color depth is really good, shows look very fluid on it but if you want Crystal like detail you'll need to go up a class. It is a perfect tv if you plan on gaming and moderate tv watching (only because of the sound)

Hello Thatgamerguy, 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. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio settings feel free to contact VIZIO support at 844-254-8087.  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.

The remote is the worst!!!

Picture quality is excellent! That being said, had we been able to handle the remote before purchasing, we would have looked at other brands instead. The remote is small, slippery to hang on to, tactical difficult to use for larger hands/fingers, and doesn't allow enough time between selecting features before defaulting back to home screen. All in all, the remote is difficult to use with one hand and difficult to use without actually looking at the remote. To add to the frustration....the tiny buttons and microscopic labeling on the remote makes looking at it in low light and/or without reading glasses difficult at best.

Freezes all the time!

I bought this Smart Tv instead of a Roku but it has been nothing but problems. It freezes constantly and we have to keep unhanging from the wall to unplug and reset it. I was told by the sales rep you could add apps but this is not the case. I have several apps I have to download from my phone and mirror the image. This is so frustrating because my phone always has to be by my TV. The image resolution is probably the only nice thing about this TV.

Great TV

The screen is great! With 4K I use this in my home office/guest bedroom for stock trading so I can see all the action up close, then at night I'll watch something on the wide range of available streaming services. The price can't be beat! Most of my TVs are Visio. I never write reviews so that fact alone makes this a great testimonial! Haha!

Our second Vizio!

The bedroom Vizio has been outstanding for 12 years! No kidding, we've never had any type problem with it--I think it is a 32". That is why we bough the 65" Vizio for the family room.The 65" has provided a glorious picture, great sound, and problem free. Thank you for all your products!

Really nice picture!

Bought it for my wife for Christmas 2019. I was really easy to wall mount ( not overly heavy ) and the picture is really nice. The only issue I have is the Smart Hub. When I push the button, it comes up as a black screen (once out of 3 or so) I then have to reset the tv and it works fine ( that's why only 4 stars ) but other than that its really nice.
