Should've done more research!

This TV is great if all you want to do is watch regular cable TV. As far as being a smart TV, it's not so smart. There's no browser on this TV and you cannot download apps. It's extremely frustrating. I thought being able to cast would be a good thing but not so much. The sound and the picture do not sync. In other words you get the sound before they move their mouth. Again extremely frustrating! I was going to change from regular cable with spectrum to their streaming service and save myself a boatload of money but now I can't because I can't download the app to my smart TV. Worst purchase I've ever made. If I only knew then what I know now I would have returned it and bought a whole Roku TV system. All of that is beside the fact that the menu system is terrible. It's awkward and doesn't give you enough time to make a choice before disappearing. Even the tech from spectrum was not impressed with this unit. Now, unfortunately, being on the low-income side of life I'm saddled with this thing for however long it lasts.

pure technology and at a good price.

I saw this brand for the first time in the house of a boss of my wife and I loved it I have an LG 4K smart and the Vizio they had was not as new as mine but it had an incredible image quality and menu so I loved it .and finally I was able to buy one.

Great picture!!

I purchased this tv to replace an older 37” tv and it's really a great tv! So easy to use and setup and I love that you just hit the cc button for closed captioning. I love it being a smart tv so I was able to get rid of my plug-ins attached to my other tv. Hopefully this tv will last and with no problems!

Great TV for price!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great TV. Solid picture quality with several preset modes which adjust warmth, brightness, etc. Total customization is also possible. Quite light for its size and very easy to mount on the wall. Minimal bezels. Good connection options. Several built-in apps including nice buttons on the remote for Netflix, Prime video, etc. Automatically detected my connected AV receive via the HDMI 1 - ARC port and allowed for immediate control of my connected Android TV box - very cool. Only complaint is the brightness variability most easily seen on solid color screens due to the LED lamp array; however, this is totally expected given the price point of this device. So far, very satisfied.

We have the 4KUHD Model

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.

Very happy with this TV

I bought this TV a few weeks ago. It was easy to setup and the smart-TV features worked great right out of the box. This is the second Vizio TV we've owned, and even though we've been pleased with our older Vizio, this one is so much better. In fact, we liked this one so much, we went back and got a 58" version of it, and gave this one to our daughter.

Great price for features

Our TV dropped on the floor so looking for a replacement (which I also used as a monitor for writing) required a TV that could hook up (HDMI cable) to my laptop or “cast” from my tablet - well it has both of those and offers some 100+ free channels (love watching America's Test Kitchen) - was easy to connect Prime and Hulu

Don't recommend this model

Bought this model 8 months ago. I am now on the 3rd tv!!! The 1st one the apps would freeze so they had to send out new TV. Second TV, started turning itself off all the time!!! Now on my 3rd and the stupid remote is faulty. Press power button, volume goes up; press "ok", then volume changes or it fast-forwards or who knows what. Nothing really works as it should! My very first VIZIO lasted over 15 years. This one is horrible!

Good picture

I bought this in November and it only worked for 2 days. I did all the troubleshooting that was advised then contacted Visio for help. They gave me a few more tips and when nothing worked they immediately sent me out a new one and drivers that delivered set up new one and took down bad one. This one is great and they quickly took care of the issues with first one.

Quality Picture, Great Sound, and Plenty Apps!

Though they still work without any problems, I bought two Vizio V-Series, one 65" and one 70" screens to replace two of my older Vizio televisions that I had for fifteen years. So far I am enjoying both to the fullest. I have only one complaint. I wish that I could add individual apps. I have apps that I use on another streaming device that I can't use on the Vizio. I bought the smart tv in hopes to eliminate the other streaming device, Roku. I use my cable tv app, Spectrum on my Roku and want to use it solely on my Vizio. I can't. Other than that, I love my Vizio product. Thanks for the space.
