SPECTACULAR CLARITY and Technically ADVANCED!

I bought my VIZIO 50'' Class 4K HDR Smart TV and it has SURPRISED me and my entire family with its CLARITY, ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, and SOUND!! I am thoroughly enjoying this VIZIO 50" in my new MANCAVE!! Since our adult kids have moved out of our home, I can now have a special room (MANCAVE) just for me and the VIZIO is just the right TV for me!! Thank You and I purchased it at a GREAT PRICE too!!

Absolutely Love It!

I have had Vizio televisions before and I have to say I will never purchase another brand! The features, picture quality, and sound are far superior over any comparable brand in the same price category. I would recommend Vizio to anyone looking to upgrade or replace their current television or tech.

Love it

I enjoy my new cizio tv a lot. I am a little haes of hearing though so I purchased a visio aound bar to help. I haven't received it yet so I cant comment on that. All these speakers come our the bottom or back and ita not a fault of visio but design of all TV now. Picture is great.

Great TV

My TV came with all the apps that I like already on it and some I've never even heard of before. The picture quality is awesome. I would recommend this product to everyone. Why but a brand new TV, when you can get a referbished one for a lot cheaper like I did.

Great for the price

I purchased this TV roughly 4 months ago and have not had many issues. Once or twice I had an issue regarding Wi-Fi connectivity. It was quickly resolved by rebooting my Wi-Fi and disconnecting and reconnecting the TV. Could possibly be attributed to the Internet router or Wi-Fi.

Over all great tv

Bought our 50” Vizio 4k tv a few weeks ago now, upgraded from a 50” 1080 vizio and there is a clear difference, a lot more capabilities. During the initial set up the tv froze a few times to where I had to physically unplug it and plug back in, aside from that everything has been working great with out any issues. Use for gaming with Xbox, netflix and streaming movies.

First Smart TV

We bought as a replacement and is our first smart tv. Picture clarity is great. Glad the user manual is built in, took a minute to figure out and is now easy to use. Rated four stars instead of five due to sound quality - an external sound source is most likely necessary. Glad we purchased and would buy again.

Great features

I bought as a Christmas gift to myself. So far I love almost everything about it. Its full of apps so I don't miss cable service. The picture is great & the sound is almost great. There are some things, like action scenes, where I'll hear a muffled popping sound coming from the tv. I'm still trying to figure out whats causing it.

Great Features!

This was a great TV. Had all the bells and whistles but due to this we ended up returning them (purchased 2). We were using them in our home gym and planned on connecting a Apple TV to them so all the bells and whistles were not necessary. We went with TVs that are less expensive and no smart features because of the Apple TV.

V505-H9 2020 model 50 inch 4k TV

Finally , been waiting to do this ,...here goes ,... Vizio V505 H9 2020 model TV Bad stuff first , in case you don't read the whole thing . SmartCast 4.0 youtube app. does NOT play all HDR videos on youtube, as HDR . Some play in Normal mode , thus washed out looking . In particular , HDR videos from Jacob and Katie Costa Rica 4k HDR only plays as SDR Normal and looks really pale . The TV will NOT queue it up as HDR . However, All other youtube apps in other TVs and devices play the above youtube video as HDR . SmartCast 4.0 youtube app. needs to be look at . On a positve note , SmartCast 4.0 Netflix app. plays Dolby Vision very , very nice . youtube app plays HLG videos . 4 corner ghosting is visible when Sold color fills entire screen( same as with 2019 V-Series TV ) . At far left and right sides some of the Vertical Frame Work is visible when a Solid color fills the entire screen. Some delicate movie scenes reveal the above two conditions( corners and Frame Work ) Inside the Left and Right side areas are each filled with a single large pale blotch on each side . To hide it from view, view the Screan Head On . A Ceiling light near the screen increases contrast and further hides the 2 large inner pale areas of the Left and Right sides of the inner Frame Work . I am assuming this is a QA QC kind of thing of the materials and not a Defect . ( I never noticed that on the 2019 V-series TV ) The large pale areas are easily seen when standing above the screen and looking down on the screen when Solid Dark color fills the entire display . All Pixels work . No Dead pixels , No bright pixels . Also the Panel Checks Clean , No Dirty Screen Effect , as tested with youtube videos . Thus the 2 large pale areas are a mystery . White Balance calibration has 20 points . 2019 V-series TVs had 11 point calibration . colors and Tones are accurate out of box . i have not adjusted white balance ( No need to ) . Display is vibrant with excellent black levels and excellent black bars during wide screen movies and excellent black side bars during 4:3 programs . Computer use is very nice . Video card using 8 bit RGB 4:4:4 Full , Standard definiton : TV set to : HDMI input version 2.1 Backlight 3 Brightness 50 Contrast 50 ( with RGB input , TV Locks Out Contrast setting ) Color Level 50 Tint 0 Sharpness 0 Color Temp Normal Aspect ratio Normal Low Latency sync On Game HDR On Gamma 1.8 All remaining Picture settings are OFF . Plenty of Luminosity for Dolby Vision and HDR10 . Tone Mapping picture adjustment becomes available with HDR. HDR10 , HDR10+ , Dolby Vision , HLG , FilmMaker Mode IR remote is omni-directional ( nice ). point remote anywhere. 120 hz refresh rate at 1920 x 1080 ( computer DeskTop and games ) 3840 x 2160 max refresh rate 60 hz all 3 HDMI inputs support these formats : 8 bit RGB 4:4:4 Full 8 bit YCbCr 4:4:4 ( 8 10 12 ) bit YCbCr 4:2:2 8 bit RGB 4:4:4 limited ( 8 10 12 ) bit YCbCr 4:2:0 SmarCast 4.0 and Netflix streams Dolby Vision with Dolby Audio on the Optical output ( requires external Dolby decoder ). Been using Turtle Beach DSS2 box with headphones . Antenna TV gives Dolby audio on Optical output . Full gray Tone detail is decernable when Brightness is set to 50, on the computer . Making gray images , i can see down to Black Level 2 . Then level 1 and 0 are both full black . That is some Excellent black gradient detail . This TV has some amazing gray scale Tone visibitly with SDR and HDR . Witcher 3 computer game requires it's own setting: Backlight 30 Brightness 46 Contrast is Locked out , with RGB input signal . Tint 0 Sharpness 0 Color Temp Normal gamma 1.8 ( I use gamma 1.8 for All my presets ) Everything else is OFF TV channels : Backlight 3 or 10 Brightness 50 Contrast 50 or possibly 40 Color Temp Normal gamma 1.8 Everything else is OFF All My presets reflect the approach to make the image with a natural smooth gradient , like that from natural lighting . The TV can play blazingly bright , which is too intense , especially for computer use . See my computer preset for SDR Desktop use . Computer use and HDR . only use HDR when a program needs it . For everything else , keep the desktop in SDR mode , with HDR OFF . SDR programs and desktop should NOT use HDR. Thin bexel . 50 inch has a viewable 49.5 inch . Not perfect . 1 star drop for the corner ghosting and Frame Work see thru visiblitlty . And for the 2 Large pale areas of the Left and Right interiour halves of the screen . If i had a decent camera i would send you a pic of the paleness . Fortunately the pale areas are NOT visible during normal viewing . In Picture settings , it says : ProGaming Engine for Low Latency and Game HDR settings . Signal processing for image quality in this TV is improved from 2019 V-series TVs. Amazing Engineering . I never use the built in picture presents as they are too intense. The Backlight is cranked to 100 % ,... I never do that . Also the built in presets use Color Temp Warm . Use Normal , so White is White , and not some redish sepia . I have NOT used it's WIFi .I have NOT tried to Cast to this TV. 3 HDMI inputs all 3 are version 2.1 ( you can select version 1.4 if you want ) with HDCP 2.2 , 1 USB input , 1 Yellow Composite video input with RCA stereo audio input jacks . RCA stereo output audio jacks .. No video Component input . No computer VGA input. No DVI input . ATSC 1.0 TV Tuner . Nice for a TV , computer monitor and Streaming display . Many built in Streaming apps . Apps are NOT user downloadable . No Web Browser . The Vizio remote control from a 22 inch TV from year 2014 works with this TV . The only function it can't do is the Info button . It does everything else ! I'm surprised by that . The 2014 remote lets me navigate every menu for setup , even SmartCast 4.0 to select and play a streaming app. While at Netflix , the 2014 remote controls the Netflix app. The 2014 remote also has the same omi-directional range, thus this Range is because of the excellent IR receiver in the TV.
