I bought this to replace my fathers 50 inch and to do away with Roku. I like the picture quality but we still have to use the Roku because VISIO does not have an App Store. You can only use their approved Apps. If your purchase smartv you should not have to use a fire stick or Roku device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this Vizio smartTV for over three years and am glad I made the purchase. As ne streaming apps have launched, Vizio SmartCast has kept up. I was able to ditch my antenna and Firestick for a simple single interface. Even if I didn't want to pay for streaming, WatchFree+ and multiple other free apps would suffice. They even have apps for my toddler. Overall, I highly recommend Vizio brand smart TVs as the picture quality is exceptional, the apps are constantly updated or added, and the UI is super intuitive and user friendly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this product a year. They just pushed out an update and now the TV is frozen, the remote doesn't work. Spent hours online trying to fix. (this is a common issue) Finally spoke to someone and they are sending out a technician to try and fix. Still haven't heard from the technician. I'm skeptical and think the technician will only be able to put a band-aid fix if they can get it to work. (They only warranty the work for 3 months) Thus, probably going to be without a TV for another 2 weeks.

Its big picture is nothing special has Volume issues especially when switching to a hdmi port you cant add or delete apps i still have to plug a firestick into it to access tv services i actually watch and pay for! id suggest no this tv is just big and slow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this TV for a while now, and it never ceases to amaze me! Every time I start scrolling through all of the options, I find something new and fun to watch. The picture is great, as is the sound. One of the best purchases I have ever made!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the TV! Love the apps already they're ready for you to access. Easy to nagivate the features of the TV…changing the difference “brightness” of the shows you are watching. Just wish there was a way to download apps for extra customization

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my Vizio for 2 years and so far no problems. It's got great color. The sound is pretty much where you set it.....so I like me that as I have trouble with one of my ears. I like the easy on feature. The apps work good too. All in all it's been a great find for me thanks to my son's recommendation!!

I went from a small 40” in my bedroom. I knew I wanted to go bigger but thought “how big is to big for my room?” I decided to purchase this 50” and let me tell you it was the best decision I ever made. The picture is CRYSTAL clear, and the size is almost like having a movie theater in my own bedroom. I love the smartcast, and how all my favorite TV apps are a button away. Best purchase I've made in a long time.

I have always been a fan of the Vizio brand and have bragged on it numerous times. With this new purchase, I am extremely disappointed to the horrible sound. impeccable sound is extremely important to me and this sounds so cloudy, so often… Muffled. We are the music is crisp but the dialogue is unclear. I've had to turn the sound up in the 70s to get what I feel is a crystal clear sound. I can't help but think that is designed specifically to force customers into purchasing the Vizio Sound Bar. That in itself is giving me a very bad taste in my mouth for this brand.

I brought my VIZIO tv and realized that the volume was not working on the tv. I returned the tv for another one (same make & model). The tv worked for a week then would not turn on anymore. Apparently this is an issue that VIZIO is aware of because they have trouble-shooting directions should this occur. I couldn't get the tv to work so I returned the 2nd tv and got a tv from a different manufacturer which is working wonderfully. I will never buy another VIZIO product, nor would I recommend it to anyone.
