Glitchy But Very Nice Picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this TV for a few years. It still works very well except for the smart features. I was only able to get it to connect to my Alexa app for a few months in the beginning. Then the app updated and I haven't been able to use voice commands since. Which is a main reason I bought this TV. I only ever watch TV while I'm doing artwork with both hands like sewing or knitting. And even when I do have the remote handy, the ok button rarely works when trying to pause or make a selection. This causes a lot of aggravation and I end up leaving the TV on pause or the home screen because I find it so difficult to do otherwise. So fairly early on in the life of the TV, it developed burnout. A dark area in the middle of the screen that's quite big. It's like a reverse vignette. It doesn't seem visible while watching TV but is extremely apparent on the home screen and on info screens. Overall, I really love this TV and the incredible sound and picture. I just really wish it worked as it was designed to. I got it on a really good deal, otherwise I think I'd be super bitter if I paid full price for a TV that had features I couldn't use. Knowing the risk of these glitches, I'd still very much recommend this model if the sale is good.

Overall very nice TV

Love the picture, love that it has audio output RCA jacks! Would like to have one more HDMI port. I run the sound through an amp so don't use the internal speakers. I hate that I can't add more apps, I only use Pureflix and ESPN+ neither of them are pre installed and you can't add them so I have to use a Fire Stick to access them!

Nice tv, good home screen layout&free channels.

Like this tv a lot better than our last smart tv. The Home Screen layout is perfect and the picture is nice. The only issue is we went from a 55” TCL that had its led die to this and the wall mount was an “x” shape for our old tv... when we went to put this on it requires a “H” shaped bracket instead so we had to buy a new wall mount.

smartcast

I had this my TV for about a month now, and the smartcast still will not load on TV. I went through all of the reset steps with customer service, still nothing. the only app button to work on the remote is the Netflix button . I was informed by customer service that they knew of the problem and it should be fixed with an update. I'm still waiting on update, so I can really enjoy my TV.

Great Purchase

I purchased this products roughly 2 weeks ago and I'm happy with it. The TV was easy to set up comes preloaded with several of those common apps eliminating the need for me to purchase another FireTv stick. The picture quality is great and the price for the TV was a steal for the features compared to Sony, LG or other manufacturers.

bad firm wear

I really like the picture on tv . However the only way I can use it is with my hulu box. The vizo company had had issues with the firm wear for over 3 months now. They keep giving promises to fix the issues that they know are causing the issues. However after 3 months no fixes have been made I am unable to access any thing on tv thru the vizio firm wear. i can even access the vizo free channels. If i had it to do over I would have bought a different tv.

I would buy another

Some of the display settings are disabled in game mode. It's sometimes glitching. The power button doesn't work anymore, but overall the price for the features and size is very reasonable. If you don't mind rebooting the TV every now and then I would buy another

Easy to navigate

After I owning this tv for a country of days I'm finding it easier to navigate around. The picture is clear and the sound is better than I thought it would be without a sound bar. The ports on the back are also in a place that is not obscured by the wall bracket unlike my older Vizio that bit it. Excellent price, too. I would definitely recommend this product.

Look good in the store

I liked the screen picture on the display at the store. Got it home and the setup took forever, it kept repeating. The menu options were confusing, only the power button worked on the remote (yes, I tried new batteries). It would freeze on certain apps like Netflix, and the only way you could get it to change was unplug it from the wall. And last but not least, it did not read digital signal from my digital antenna so I couldn't watch my local channels. So it went back in the box and back to the store.

The best deal out there.

I purchased this tv a month ago and what an amazing deal. I read the reviews online about this tv and they were all wrong. The streaming rate is smooth, not choppy at all. The colors are clear as a bell. It looks like a samsung twin the picture is so perfect. I cant tell you how happy I am to have gotten this fine product. For people paying more money for similar products .. a fool and thier money are easily seperated.
