Wonderful TV except....

This is probably one of the most amazing TV's iv ever owned except the fact that when I connect my PS4 to it and shut the TV off I have to soft power cycle the TV to get it to work or anything. It's very weird and drives me absolutely crazy because then my PS4 doesn't want to work properly either and after disconnecting them both, power cycling, and waiting some time things start to work normal. Also I can't click on alot of the apps that are "preinstalled" on the TV as well. Like Vudu, Tidal, etc. I've done 99% of the troubleshooting things and still have issues to this day

Hi Karmatose88! The TV turning off might be something with the CEC setting. We recommend turning CEC off or to ARC Only and seeing if the same thing happens. If it does, please reach out to our customer support team at 877-878-4946 and we would be happy to help however we can!

Awesome!!!!

I brought my tv about a month ago. I absolutely love it! It's got great picture and sound quality. Apps are organized and easily accessible. I like how customizable it can be made to my likes and interests. I recommend this tv. I looks so nice in my room and is the perfect size for the space on my wall that it's hanging. (:

Great TV!

I purchased this TV for use as a computer monitor for telework during the COVID-19 virus threat. It has worked amazingly well. It's better than having two separate monitors. Once the virus threat is over, and I can go back to work, we will use it as a great TV in our bedroom.

Functional

I bought this TV about 6 months ago. Easy set up. Had to work out some bugs originally with some connectivity issues but all were relatively easy to solve. Very easy to use and navigate between apps different settings make experiences i.e. gaming, movies, etc. Fun to tinker with.

Great Purchase/Great Value

I recently purchased a Vizio 4K UHD 40" for my wife's office. We're so impressed that when we go for our next upgrade Vizio will be giving Samsung a run for our business. We have a Sharp 4K UHD in our bedroom and we seriously enjoy our Vizio even more!!!

Great picture!

I bought this tv a month ago and we love it. Has great picture and sounds amazing when it's hooked up to the sound bar. Love that it's a smart t v. Wish the speakers in it were better. When the movie is loud without the sound bar it rattles when there is too much base. Other than that it's great.

Archaic WiFi Protocall

This is likely my last purchase of a VIZIO TV. They insist on using an archaic WiFi protocall which requires you to set your router using WPA. The problem is, WPA is not secure and has been replace by WPA2 in 2004!! So VIZIO, you are only 16 years out of date, and this is a new TV! This WiFi setup must be done in your router, which means, it makes your whole network insecure! This is unacceptable.

Lots of Features

My main tv died suddenly so I did not have an opportunity to research a new one. I have small Vizios scattered throughout the house and was pleased...so decided to have a "Vizio house". I was not disappointed. My new "v class" 505 was reasonably priced, has lots of smart features that I am still exploring, a clear image...and fast refresh time. The only downside that I have found thus far is the poorly designed remote. Its is neither intuitive in any respect...nor ergonomic. Still...no regrets in the purchase. Great buy for the money.

Detailed pic/great color

I bought this TV 3 weeks ago and so far I'm happy with it. The only thing I dont like Is the speakers have been moved to the back of the TV so when the TV sits in the nook area toy have to turn the volume up louder to hear it which I don't like. My previous Vizio had the speakers on the bottom front of the TV and it was ideal for those of us who have homes with a built in TV nook area! Love the TV itself but previous design with speakers on the front was much better!

Needs some improvement.

I bought this a few weeks. I went back and forth between the Vizio and a Samsung. Went with the Vizio because we have had others and have been happy. The sound quality on this tv is poor. There seems to be no way to add apps to this “smart” tv, which has been a feature on my other Vizios. Over the picture is ok and it's not a bad tv, just not as good as our Samsung.

Hello Mark2021, this TV uses our SmartCast Platform which offers a host of built in apps, as well as support for Google's Chromecast, Apple's AirPlay 2, and voice support for SIRI, Google Home, and Alexa. You are not able to manually download additional apps, however new apps are added to the platform often. If you find there is an app you want to watch that is not on SmartCast you may be able to cast it using Chromecast or Apple AirPlay from your phone or mobile device. In regards to audio, 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.
