For the price it does fine for us. Nice picture but needs getting use to since I replaced it with a high end mote expensive tv that died and didn't want to buy another expensive tv. Sound could be better but again will do for us. Lots of new tech features and easy to connect to tings like Netflix and Amazon Prime TV overall a good TV for the price

This unit provides a lot of bang for the money. And, the Pluto TV is a nice extra if you want something different and apart from needing a cable subscription. So far smooth sailing with easy set up and intuitive controls. Need to learn more about casting! definitely recommend

Purchased to replace a Samsung that went black on the whole right side, after 15 months of use. Ironically, it had been purchased to replace another Samsung that developed a huge white spot in the middle of the screen. Done with Samsung. So far the Vizio seems to have been a great value. With the pandemic keeping us housebound it has virtually been a life saver!

So far so good! I like it more than previous model. I had a vizio, D- Series but the picture is much better. It has 3 hdmi ports, I dont particularly need more than 2 but...it also has a USB, audio adapter and an ethernet! It has many more apps and updated features than my previous model as well! I am still figuring it out.... I would have given 5 stars but I'm still learning how to use it! It has 6 direct app buttons on the top of the remote, (I would like other App options,) and I haven't figured out how to add or remove the apps on the main app menu! It should be easy, However, I'm not tech savvy when it comes to remotes!!! Overall it is a great TV that I hope to have for as many years before tech is upgraded and I cant possibly live with this hideous dinosaur tv! I am very happy with this purchase, I didnt spend a small fortune as I had for the previous model I did have and it is much nicer out the box!!! Would recommend!

We purchased the 58" 4K UHD Model the first thing is how the color is so shockingly Bright that it just jumps out of the screen and fills the room with all these wonderful, magical,beautiful colors and the picture is so clear, and vivid and it's just like really being there with the actors and actresses you can almost smell the ocean air from the beach as you slowly walk in the oceans edge carrying your shoes to keep them dry. And you pause long enough to kiss that gorgeous woman that you married so long ago "50" years ago and she still can stop my heart just looking at her so you gave her something that makes the world in front of her eyes seame as beautiful as her. Wow what a television and a new future ahead for visio.

At first I was very disappointed with the colors. I feel Vizio needs to put more info on color balance and calibration. But lo and behold in the settings conveniently able to be read like a book in the television menu I was able to locate the color calibration chart complete with the tuning digits. I was able to fix the color and for the price it's a good television.

Let me start by saying I have 5 Vizio TVs going back almost 15 years. All had been really great TVs & still work. All but the one I bought 2 years ago. After 2 years half the display has gone dark. Go figure that the newest one is the one with issues. So I decided to replace the unit with a newer version. Got the V505-H19 & turned it on & could instantly see an issue. Looked like it had a frame around the display. The outer edges (about 2" thick) were brighter than the rest of the display. This was most noticeable when watching sports. Especially hockey or anything with a white or bright background. So I packed the unit back up & exchanged for a 2nd unit. And yup! Same exact issue. Seems to be a big design flaw the the LED board. So I packed that one up as well & have returned it. Probably will now, after 15 years of buying only Vizio, go with a different brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The V705x-H1 is my third TV with HDR, and the first that doesn't suffer from notable zones of backlighting, I'm guessing with due to the full backlighting array they list. Dark darks, bright brights, and no evidence of bleeding light, which makes gaming (especially menus where there're hard corners,) a bit better. On HDR this is the first TV I've owned where I felt it does HDR as advertised. I had a few moments of disbelief when playing games and ended up filming as it did not seem to be only a 60hz refresh rate. I'm pretty sure in the days leading up to Black Friday I've seen it listed as “120hz effective refresh rate.” This led me to researching effective vs actual, and I'm reading from this they're doing some wizardry to make it appear a higher refresh than it is. Overall, it looks great, you can game solidly on it, but if you're a twitch sniper this TV probably isn't quite your thing. As an older FPS gamer on PC/Xbox, this refresh rate does not affect me adversely. Games are also beautiful, until you attempt to photograph them with a cell phone and it just looks meh. Installation was done with me and my wife, who's got a frozen shoulder and still managed to heft up half the weight of the thing. I think in total it's about 50 pounds and we managed to get it up on the mount I had with no issues. While I think I could have potentially done it alone, meh, two people can easily do it. After initially powering up you've got a fairly long firmware update to sit through. I started it wired on a gigabit connection and it was a long few minutes wondering if it was coming back up. It did, no complaints there, but it did appear to be dead for a while. Just plan to wait for a bit. The OS is your standard Vizio SmartCast, and if you're familiar with that the only difference is it appears to be significantly faster than on older models after a few minutes of being installed. It was slow for about a minute after the initial update, but now it's great. I have a feeling it was doing work in the background while I was attempting to get right into playing with the new TV. I proceeded to set up Plex, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and I swear I'm forgetting something, and got to watching. I did some comparison testing and went to the other couple of TVs and watched the same things again, and also on my phone to see what all differences I could discern. The answer to most streaming was not a whole lot other than sheer size, although I did determine I liked the HDR significantly more on this than on my older VIZIO which I believe had 30 or so lighting zones. I've spent a lot of time watching this over the past few days, and have determined that the only reality breaker that presents itself for an OCD observer is that the top of the screen appears ever so slightly a different shade when we're looking at non-moving gray. Totally unnoticeable on other colors or during movement, but the backlighting or edge lighting or something doesn't look perfect at the top when 1) gray, 2) viewed from lower angle. This had me standing on a couch watching 4K videos in an attempt to see whether the effect was visible dead on, which I think I determined it maybe is but you need more OCD than I have to notice it. So tilt the screen if you see it. You will want a sound system of some sort. The speakers are good, but not great. I don't claim to be an audiophile, but once you get a decent sound system you can't go back. If you haven't watched over the air broadcasts due to cable or streaming, I suggest you check out your local over the air stations with an antenna (you'll need to get an antenna.) The video quality will make you wonder why you're paying cable fees to watch a pixelated mess. Also useful for when your cable goes out. Overall, it's a good solid TV. There are plenty of videos on why it's a great gaming TV due to the processor, I'll let you check those out for yourself. It's crisp, sharp, dark and beautiful, and I have no complaints.

Had the TV about a month. I like it, but the instructions were pretty poor or lacking. I have gotten used to operating it, mostly by trial and error. Still don't like some of the features but have figured it out. The picture is good. I would buy it again and recommend it for a reasonable price.

We own three VIZIO tv's. We love each of them. We bought the Smart TV-V505-G9 TV because we had a good History and knowledge base with Vizio TV's. Our new VIZIO 50" Smart TV was perfect out of the box; setup was simple and well documented. Happy Days Are Here Again!
