It's got clear picture

My husband and I bought ourselves a gift and we love it. It has so many features that I still have no idea to use. It is confusing a little. I just stick to my regular shows I like. Only down fall is I pay for discovery + and you can't use it on this tv only the other TVs in the house can.

Loyal customer

I own a Vizio TV and my only option when looking into a larger one was to purchase another Vizio. The clarity is great. The only critique is the sound quality. I am able to listen to my music on my older Vizio with excellent sound quality (mostly bass) but with this one it doesn't have the same smooth sound. It doesn't sound bad, but definitely not the same.

great features BUT......

Bought our unit 3 weeks ago and set up was not that bad even though the written instructions were minimal. We are in our mid 70's and mainly watch local channels and Netflex.This was our 4th Vizio product over the years in both TV's and sound systems. We tend to be product loyal so it was only natural that we purchased this unit. Even at my age I was able to use the online manual and found all the information I needed. It is a great unit that performs well.But, we had to return it. There was no provision for slower minds and poor dexterity when it comes to moving around in certain areas of the unit. If you are too slow punching the button to move on then you are taken to whatever you were on. This made it difficult to move from Netflex to local channels. There is a button on the remote for netflex but not for local TV channels. If there had been then we would be watching this unit today. I would not recommend this unit for a disabled or aged person but I would recommend for a young person. No doubt the quality is there.

Good value

It's a different navigation method than my last TV, and it's taking time to get used to. There should be a "TV" button on the remote for quick navigation, but there isn't. The channel display could also be bigger. My old TV displayed the name of the Show when I clicked to the channel, but this Vizio doesn't. Overall, no regrets.

GLITCHY

I bought this TV at the end of December. It has limited smart features fine for the price. My issue is the tv glitches, wont shut off, you cant select apps, screen flashes and so on . I am sure this is just a defective TV because I have had several Vizio products and never had an issue

Aside from problems with the remote to start, grea

Initially they remote acted up, but the service person on the phone was super helpful, and I now know how to troubleshoot the remote. It's undergone that there are no control in the actual tv, so the remote is all you have, but so far so good. Great picture! Working beautifully since kinks worked out. We've enjoyed it more than going to the theater!

Very good tv in this price range

The picture and sound quality are great as is the smart TVs interface. The watchfree has a lot of content that we actually like to watch. Only issue is the sound is a little glitchy when switching sources it will get muted and you will have to switch to a different source and then switch back to get the sound to play. Not a big deal only slightly inconvenient. Also was disappointed that they went away from the remote with the QWERTY keyboard on the back. Overall very happy with our purchase!

The worst television I own

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We get a lot of square inches per dollar spent. However, size does not matter here because it is the most annoying television to own. The software constantly crashes, so much so that I have to hard-reset the TV regularly. The black detail makes the picture worse than a 1990's pre-LED tv. Somehow there's styrofoam inside the screen. The sound is atrocious, as the tv rattles with low or loud sounds. This was so annoying that I had to buy external speakers. The app control constantly crashes or has buttons redirect you in an infinite loop, e.g., once you enter Watch Free, you will not be able to go to any other app until you perform a hard reset. I bought two of these TVs and only one shows pictures, the other only turns on for a maximum of eight seconds, so its just sat against the wall for about a year. You might think that the TV is such a good deal that you're willing to take the gamble. For your sanity, please do not. I cannot convince my wife that we need to replace it, so I'm stuck with a tv that has the lowest quality for any sports game and is the worst with video games.

Great TV for the price

I find the TV setup was quick and very easy. The controls are easy to understand and mounting the TV on the was was a snap as all mounting brackets seem to work. A couple of complaints I have is that the Plex app is lacking some the features you find when it's running on a Apple TV or other streaming device. My major complaint about the TV has to do with the sound. I purchased this TV for my home office and find the sound is very tinny and sometimes hard to really hear without turning it up really loud. My older 60" Vizio has way better sound quality.

Couldn't be happier

I bought this as a replacement for a 50" Visio that was in my son's room for Christmas ( it was 10 years old ) , he absolutely loves it, instead of streaming through his XBox, all the apps he uses are already in the TV, great picture and quality. Highly recommend this TV
