Nice but missing a few features

I like the t.v its nice, it has a great picture, the built in chromcast is cool but the reason for me giving only 4 stars is i would have like for it to have a built in web browsers with the ability to install 3rd party apps. Bluetooth would have been nice. And ghe built in speaker can be improved a bit but thats nothing that a good sound bar cant fix

Vivid Display

A great product for me at a very reasonable price. I replaced my living room TV with this model and I am thrilled! Setup was easy to follow and the additional features are fun to explore. My current favorite is telling Google to turn on and off the living room TV. I'm very happy with this purchase and would recommend this product to other shoppers.

For the first year it was great...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For the first year the TV worked great. I had absolutely no issues. However, pretty much as soon as the warranty expired, the TV started acting wonky. It's at the point that it has to be unplugged and plugged back in every few days or else it stops working right. It just stays on a blank screen without bringing up the home screen. Even when you change it from energy saving to hard restart, it still has this issue. I had a different Vizio TV previously this that never had these issues, even after 3 years. Pros: When it worked right, the aps loaded immediately. The screen stays clear and has a good resolution. I had no issues with internet connect, both hardline and wifi were good. The menu is fairly easy to work with. Everything is setup so that you can easily access whatever you need to in the menu. Cons: (Besides previously mentioned) The main cons are the app limitations. First, there is no way to download apps, update them, or clear their cache. You just have to wait for Vizio to add any new apps in a future update for the TV. It took almost a year after HBOMax came out for the app to even be added. The set up to arrange the apps in the list are also a problem. You can't remove any apps from the app row. You're stuck with ALL of them. When trying to arrange them, the TV has issues with freezing up because there too many items in the list to move them around without the TV struggling with its lack of memory. This means that in order to adjust what apps appear first in the lineup, you end up spending 30-45 minutes just trying to get everything set up the way you want to. There are about 50 apps that I've never even opened in this menu, but I have to deal with the lag issues because they can't be removed. When you start having memory issues with aps, it's hard to get around them. If there was a way to uninstall and install them so that you could clear the cache, the majority of these problems would probably go away. The last is the connection issues with Alexa. Ironically enough, I've found that it has everything to do with Vizio side. Every week or so, the TV loses connection with Alexa, and it's always on the TV side. Either the TV suddenly forgets it has a connection, or the website drops the TV from being registered from my account.

reply from Customer Care

Hello Sabriel, Sorry to hear you are not having a smooth experience. I would love the opportunity to have our technical support team learn more about the issues you are experiencing. You are not able to manually download additional apps, however new apps are added to the platform often with firmware updates. 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. To clear the app cache, navigate to Menu > Admin & Privacy. There you find the ability to reset the TV's apps. When you have a free moment, our support team is available through text message, chat, or over the phone. Just go to support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’.

AWESOME!

Love this TV! Everything about it is great -- size, coloring, ease of use. We have an Apple TV streaming box that I no longer need because I can connect to all of our apps directly from the TV. Works great with mirroring from my iPhone as well -- love this TV would buy more!

An Affordable Smart TV

My fiance and I had been wanting a Smart TV for forever (mainly because we were tired of trying to decide at night who was going to get up and turn the TV off since we are never able to locate our remote) but we thought it would be years before we could afford one. We happened upon VIZIO's V-Series and we were sold right away! We are super impressed with the TV. It's is so much more than just a voice-controlled TV and we are having so much fun learning how to use all of its features. A GREAT BUY!!

Smart TV

It's been a very great TV. Once in awhile does have its updates as expected. But, when we first got the TV it wasn't updating properly and after 2-3 weeks it updated and finally worked. Customer service had us reset the TV hard reset and everything and it didn't work until it did it on its own. Since then it's been great and very well priced.

Unstoppable TV for the price! Very happy!

Delivered on time without visible damage to box or unit. The TV works very well and I haven't had one issue with performance. I do wish it had Google Play store, but it already comes loaded with a lot of the big named apps. So far I would give this TV a 10/10 for being exactly what I expected by the stats of the unit. Great Job.

Good quality

I bought this a few weeks ago and it's really good. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because set up wasn't easy for me (had to do some trouble shooting) and support put me on hold all day. Other than that, it's a great product and I recommend it to everyone interested.

Great TV

I've had the TV for a week and a half and gotten a lot of use out of it. The apps work great. The picture is awesome (though I did come from an older tv that couldn't even handle 1080p so take that with a grain of salt). Best purchase I've made in a long time.
