Enjoying it

I bought this a few weeks ago, and I am enjoying it. This is my first smart tv so I am learning how to work it. The only problem I have had so far is adding an app that isn't already on the tv. There are several listed but I have one I need to access that isn't already loaded on to the tv.

EXCELLENT QUALITY

Purchased this to replace a 55" LED I had purchased years ago. Was afraid the 5" decrease would be too easy to see but instead, the quality of the 4K HDR makes up tremendously for it. Such crisp detail and the slim outline gives the screen an even bigger feel. SmartCast is great and there is SO many titles to go through so will never have nothing to watch. Only downfall of any of it would be the remote doesn't have a backlight so at night it's hard to see what buttons you are pushing (overtime will memorize where buttons on but still). Would recommend 10/10 and purchase again and again.

Great picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this tv about 5 years ago, and it still works excellent. The picture quality is excellent, but I don't think it's quite as 'crisp' as it was during the first year or two. The only other thing that has always been pretty annoying is that I have to manually clear the cache quite frequently, by unplugging the television and then holding down the power button (in the back) for 10 secs. It seems to be required more and more frequently also (almost daily at this point), or else it just freezes... it's just annoying, but then the tv works fine again. Also, the app seems to be garbage. It only works every once in a while. Most of the time it won't "find" my tv. Lastly, and probably the worst thing about it, is that it doesn't have the mlb.tv app, which makes absolutely no sense to me. But, there's literally no way to use my subscription on this tv without spending a ton more money. I should just be able to download the app and login. If I had known that, I wouldn't have bought it.

Another great Vizio TV

I bought this TV to replace a failing 39" unit. I did not get the warranty so, life is what it is. The only complaint I have is the side viewing gets fuzzy. Also I had to turn the sharpness all the way up to get the picture where I thought it should be. Overall, very happy.

Great tv!

This is the third Vizio tv I have owned. This tv replaced my living room tv which wasn't a Vizio. I have a Vizio in each of our two bedrooms, one of which still plays great after almost 12 years! This is the only brand I will ever consider purchasing. Thank you for making a great quality product!

Great features

Pros: I loved the VIZIO TV, it's loaded with so many applications. In reality, you don't need cable this TV has so much to offer. The picture is great and I love the built-in Chromecast option. Cons: I had two VIZIO trade-in, the 1st one the tube was gone when I plugin out of the box. The 2nd VIZIO worked for 2 weeks then the screen blackout had to take it back to the store. I didn't purchase another VIZIO 3rd time around just when with a different brand but I did like the TV. Cons:

Great picture

I love love love my TV. I am a Visio loyal customer and I would not switch for nothing. The reason I gave this TV a 3 star is be the sound is terrible. When I put it over 20 it start cracking and I really don't like that. Not sure what I can do about it if anything, but that is the only downfall for me

reply from Customer Support

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 by visiting support.vizio.com and selecting the 'Contact Us' option. 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.

Good when it works.

Had my Vizio for a few months now. Seems like the software has serious glitches. At times the menu screen with all the apps takes over a minute to cone up. One time becoming apparently frozen resulting in me completely resetting the TV. When watching Hulu when a commercial comes on the audio to my Vizio surround system cuts out and never returns. I have ensured both have latest software etc and I run a high quality home between the two devices. I am also disappointed that there is no HBO max app available for Vizio instead I have to use a roku stick or Xbox for that service.

Great Features

I bought this tv about 2 months ago. It was easy to set up and has been working great. It has all the apps that I need and no more need for my fire tv. The wifi connection seems more stable than my previous tv and the picture is great. For the price and quality I couldn't be happier. I did have one problem a few days after having the tv but I called the concierge number and they helped me correct it and no problems since. Very happy with my purchase!

Perfect size, good picture, poor interface

I have had a few HD and 4k sets over the past few years, from the likes of Samsung, LG, Vizio, and others. Of all of them, the Vizio has the worst user interface of any of them. Not very intuitive, lacking some controls that are available on other sets, and a menu system that makes you hunt for the setting you're looking for. That said, the picture quality is pretty good, the connectivity options are great, and it is the perfect size for the armoire that used to house a CRT TV a long time ago. Finding a 4k TV in a 40" form factor is difficult, and the picture quality on this one did not disappoint.
