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.

Love it, just missing one thing!!

The TV and apps work great. Love the fact the controller has quick buttons to get to Disney+, Hulu, and Netflix. Only thing with the TV, I would like to be able to add additional apps like HBO. Also the speakers and in the back of the TV and I have bookcases on either side so I will have to purchase a sound bar in order not to put the volume up loud.

The remote is the worst!!!

Picture quality is excellent! That being said, had we been able to handle the remote before purchasing, we would have looked at other brands instead. The remote is small, slippery to hang on to, tactical difficult to use for larger hands/fingers, and doesn't allow enough time between selecting features before defaulting back to home screen. All in all, the remote is difficult to use with one hand and difficult to use without actually looking at the remote. To add to the frustration....the tiny buttons and microscopic labeling on the remote makes looking at it in low light and/or without reading glasses difficult at best.

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.

Returned in time to get a refund

I purchased this TV so excited, from day one the TV froze, kept shutting off, took 30 minutes to come back, I was able to return it to where I purchased in time to get a refund and purchase another brand. Also couldn't download Sling TV at all. I was surprised that a App TV couldn't download some of the most common apps. Also I was unaware that my phone would have to be the remote although the TV came with a remote control I had to use my cellphone.

Hi NikkiNJ. While you can't download apps not on the TV already you can cast them or AirPlay them from your phone, tablet, or computer. This gives our customers access to thousands of different apps to watch the content they want to watch. The remote that came with the TV is a fully functioning remote and you can control every TV function except casting from the remote itself.

Good TV

I bought this TV a month ago along with a Vizio sound bar. I'm really enjoying the sound quality and ease of use. Only problem with this TV is it doesn't have Disney plus or DC universe apps or compatibility to Apple airstream either. This would be a great fix.

VIZIO V-Series 70” Class 4K

I bought this TV about 10 days ago and I really can't say that much about it yet, but as far as look, work, and performance of this TV, I am very happy!! Installation ware easy and self explanatory after plugin! This TV replaced my 10+ years older Vizio 42" LED TV (still working good just some apps stop working do to upgrades) and it was time to go bigger and better! Now let see how long this new Vizio TV going to work for us! Thank you Vizio!

Great TV with great features!

I bought this TV about a month ago and I am extremely pleased with the purchase. It was very easy to set up (took only a few minutes) and the features are great. It's very user friendly for those of us who aren't so tech savvy! The quality of the picture is very good and the purchase price was another plus! I selected a Vizio because I have had a Vizio for the past 10 years and you can't beat the quality and performance. I would highly recommend this TV to anyone that is looking for an affordable TV that is a quality product with any feature that you want.

Good screen quality

this is my first Vizio TV, so far i like it but it would have been much better TV if it had browsing capabilities, i really dont understand the concept of making a smart TV with many apps already loaded but yet it dose not have internet browsing app, i would give it a 5 start if it had browsing.

Another great Vizio TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just purchased our third Vizio TV. We were not disappointed. Just love the clean and colorful picture along with rich sound. The user interface and setup were so easy to complete. These are the best tv's for your dollar on the market.
