Great size and value

This tv was a great buy , the only compliant I have with it would be that dark scenes with lighting in background comes off with a weird glow . I had a vizio 55” LCD prior and it was a lot cleaner and more fluent as far as the picture goes . In all for a tv this size you can't beat the price for the size ,most things we watch look great it would just be movies with a lot of dark scenes that have some issues .

Hi Jbemiller, thank you for leaving your feedback. At VIZIO we pride ourselves on our highly rated picture quality.

great features

I like most of the apps. Wish I could add to them. I like the built in chromecast. At first I had trouble with focusing the picture and color. It just didn't seem very clear to me. Also it seems like I have to adjust the picture size a lot. The one thing I would of really liked is a back lit remote.

Really not the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this TV for a couple years now and I'm really not impressed. The smart tv function doesn't allow for me to add apps that are not already installed on the TV. So my specialty apps like Angel Video and Newsmax are not able to be installed on the TV but can only be cast from my phone. The sound quality is also not good at all - no wonder they're also selling a sound bar. This TV is mounted in my small bedroom, so the sound doesn't have to be hugely loud, but there are times I have to turn it up pretty loud - louder than it should be, and my hearing is just fine. Overall, not a fan.

Hello ReneeXC, as televisions continue to have larger screens with thinner profiles and sleeker bezels, there is less room for large speakers. To help get the best audio quality out of your VIZIO televisions speakers, we’ve included settings like DTS Studio Sound to provide the highest performance possible, while maintaining the thin, sleek, bezel-less profile of your television. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio settings feel free to contact VIZIO support at 844-254-8087.  For top of the line audio performance, you may also look into purchasing a VIZIO Sound Bar, there are several models available with wireless subwoofers for enhanced bass, rear speakers for true surround sound, and our new line of Atmos Sound Bars.

Picture quality

It took a bit to fine tune the picture quality. The manufacturer presets did not dramatically improve the picture quality. Some of the settings Contrast, Color, Tint, and Sharpness are not available for fine tuning when using HDMI 1 - had to switch to "Watch Free" to fine tune the picture to my liking. Once I figured the workaround, I have an very crisp picture.

99% of the time its amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this TV for 2-3 years and its a great TV! They keep improving on the ‘smart tv' side with updates. The only flaw is on rare occasions the apps can freeze up and you get stuck and basically have to unplug your TV to reboot it. Then all works well again.

Great TV

I bought this TV to replace my 9 yr old plasma tv in my bedroom. I love this TV. With a few personal adjustments, it is just what I wanted. You could not beat the price. Beautiful picture and great apps. It's nice to be able to watch everything I want without changing rooms.

great TV

bought this just over a month ago and am very happy with it as i have been with all my VIZIO TV's. the initial setup was the more of a pain in the butt due to all the updates it had to do to even use it but probably bothered me more cause i set it up right before an NFL game, lol. all in all, love it also like the cast and airplay being built in

Great choice!

We bought our Vizio just before Thanksgiving and, never having owned or set up a flat screen TV before, needed help. We called the customer service line, expecting to be forced to communicate with robots and suffer long wait times. We were thrilled when a real-life human answered the call, was friendly and patient, and easily talked us through installation. We love our TV. Picture and sound quality are great. Best purchase we've made in some time. Thank you!
