So far so good but...

I picked this TV up today. Set up went fairly smoothly but several hours later it's telling me it can't tell what is in the HDMI ports. I used brand new cables but I swapped them out for the ones that worked fine with the old TV and the TV still has issues. I wiggle the cord, any of the cords, and it suddenly sees the connection so I don't think it's the cords. I'm a bit worried that all three of the HDMI ports are loose. I really don't want to have to take this thing down and drag it back to the store so I'm going to give it a bit more time but... I'm worried now. Other than that it seems to work ok. It picked up more channels from our antennas in the attic than our last set did so that's a perk. There's a good selection of free channels to watch as well. It's iffy with our Spectrum Cable box via the HDMI port and I can't see a Spectrum app as an option. I'm looking to see if I can cast stuff from the Spectrum app to the TV. (I REALLY DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO RETURN IT!) It says it can't download anything over the wired connection but we have no issues with streaming so... I think it isn't being honest about that. The image quality is fine for our living room but the text on the on screen menus could be larger. We have to get up and stand about five feet in front of the set to read that stuff. We'll see how it goes...

LOVE THIS TV!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second Vizio purchase and I absolutely love my TV's! I've tried many other brands but Vizio is the best, hands down. It has all the features I love! The picture quality is amazing and being able to download and use all my streaming apps is easy and convenient. I would highly recommend!

TV picture is great, love casting ability, but...

I have owned numerous Vizio TV's without ever having a problem. After purchasing another brand that died after 2 years, I went back to Vizio. Screen is great, I love that I can cast to the TV -- especially using Apple Airplay. The only disappointment I have and single reason I gave 3 stars instead of 5 is the lack of ability to control what displays on the main screen. You can't remove apps or customize what shows on the main screen. Very disappointing!

Overall a good product

I've had this for about 6 months, and for the most part, it's solid and hard to argue for the price. Occasionally the screen blacks out for a few seconds while on my PS4, and it has internet connectivity issues now and then. There was a very subtle ripple at the far left center screen that I've been unable to smooth out, so that's a mild annoyance.

I Love My VIZIO Television!

I have been a lover of VIZIO product for almost 10 years now. I brought my first in 2013 and never looked back. It was a 42” flat screen. I decided to get a bigger screen this year to get ready for football season. So I purchased a 50”. My next move is to get an VIZIO soundbar to complete the set. I just love the brand. Great picture and the color is on point. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Great tv great value!

Bought this tv around a month ago and so far so great! It's super easy to set up, casting to the tv is great. My only complaint is that the interface is a little busy. No way to add apps that I can tell (just subscribed to discovery plus and don't see a way to add that on yet?). and if you want to find an app you have to like filter through the tons of already installed apps. BUT that's fine because I can cast whatever I want to the tv. Great picture and sound. Love the remote layout.

Nice tv but few bugs

I've had it for about two months now and every once in a while I have to plug it out and plug it back in from the electrical socket because pressing the power button shows a blank screen. I've also had to factory reset it because the date said 1999 which didn't allow me to watch Hulu. Would rate it 5 stars if those issues didn't happen.

Great Sound

I have had this for a while and i really like it. It is a little more complicated than I am used to but, it has a lot of nice features; I am unable to contact Tech Support by E-mail to send a copy of my purchase receipt and that is the only problem.

So good that had to be destroyed

Bought this a few months back to replace an older Vizio that was past it's prime. It was fantastic with all of the apps AND a ton of free channels you could watch anytime! My middle son saw the majestic capabilities and began his plot of ruination. He may only be 2 years old, but he uses an unsuspecting and often times adorably endearing appearance to cloak his dastardly deeds. I had received an email inquiry from Vizio asking about my experience thus far at 11:20 AM. He could sense my interest but knew I would likely ignore the email along with the 92,310 other unread emails in my folders. His moment to "carpe tv-iem" was impending. He had to act. By 11:22 AM, he had successfully vanquished the villainous antagonist. Thanks to a rogue empty bottle that had been propelled at rocket speed, the screen playing Little Mermaid was left split in two. The irony of Ariel singing as the moment it happened happened and me being a redhead is not lost on me. I believe that this was his declaration of war on gingers. If you want to help combat the efforts of this tyrannical subversion of the matriarchy, start today. Replace the the very TV was not allowed to continue bringing joy to our family. Seriously. Please. I think he thinks he is winning now. And he may have swayed the 1 year old to join his ranks.

Great quality

We have purchased two VIZIO Smart TVs within the last three months, and are looking at two more within the next six months. We love all of the features and the super easy set up. Picture clarity and sound are great. I almost gave it 4 Stars as VIZIO doesn't support Discovery Plus, but I'm hoping they'll send out an update that will provide that option.
