Great picture!

My old Samsung TV was beginning to lose its picture so a friend recommended video to me and I am completely satisfied 100%. I have a 58 inch and the price was fantastic. It is easy to maneuver with all the apps on the controller and I can also use the airplay function to display YouTube and other apps that are not included from my phone or computer. Overall I would say this was a great find!

Not good

Bought this tv brand new and it glitches... flashes from the movie screen to smart cast screen whenever I'm watching a movie. Sometimes when I watch a movie lines go across the screen in a stripe pattern. The tv doesn't respond to the remote sometimes, it's a brand new remote and batteries. I bought this myself and took it home, it was not dropped or damaged in my possession. I gotta say I'm disappointed.

Hello Username773, can you give us some additional details about the issue you are experiencing? For your situation I would recommend a power cycle of the TV, and then to doing a factory reset if the issues persist beyond the power cycle. This is not typical so I would like to learn more so we can assist with troubleshooting if needed. Please visit support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’. We’ve got agents ready to chat, text message, or speak with you on the phone.

WoW!!

I splurged on myself and bought this fantastic piece of ART!! I'm remodeling my family room and the only thing missing was this awesome TV.I couldn't pass up the affordable price tag! I'm so excited about all the apps features and free TV. The picture and sound are superb. Not to mention how it made our family room come together. I recommend it to my oldest daughter and she bought two for her home I can't wait to read through and watch the videos that your company has provided for us. So far it's been easy to use and really fun when we come across new and exciting apps . I'm a very satisfied customer, thank you.

I should've saved the box.

Worst tv I've ever bought. All the reviews made it seem great. The Smartcast doesn't even work. They tell me it needs a firmware update but that firmware update is not available. So no Netflix, Hulu, apps, or anything. This is not a smart tv. It's basic junk.

Returned after two days

Volume wouldn't go up or down when pushed on remote, Netflix or any other app would start up then shut down and go to Home Screen! I read up and lots of people had the volume issue. Said we needed to reset. If I have to reset a new tv I don't want it. So we returned and got different brand.

Great picture for a good price.

We chose to receive TV over the air. We are 30 miles from a large city and still get about 50 stations. Use internet for Netflix, YouTube, etc. using the built-in apps. Works great except for when exiting some of those apps sometimes the screen goes black and I have to turn it off and on a few times to get it going again.

Solid performance but with a couple quirks

I recently purchased this TV as an upgrade from my 55-inch unit to increase the performance for Xbox gaming and screen real-estate. The Vizio set up is fairly efficient except for the smart tv apps. While it is understood that the apps come from multiple sources, Vizio could do take two actions to improve the customer experience: 1) insist that all app providers follow the same standard when including with Vizio. Some of the best is using a QR to activate the service on the TV eg., Disneyplus. the worst are RedBox with archaic interface input screens. the second is to "persistent" the account information in the Visio account profile and auto complete the process. This is the 3rd Vizio unit, each having to be updated -- which takes about 1 hour. The quirk issue is with the picture and sound settings. These menu options only change with the input selected. For example, what is shown for the Apple TV input settings on the Vizio is different from Satellite and for Xbox. this makes it VERY difficult to understand what settings are available and to troubleshoot. in my case, after switching from XBOX to Cable input, the sound would not play. it turns out that AUTO input for sound is not correct for my configuration. I needed to set this to 2.1. This took me 2-days of troubleshooting and lots of internet searching. I did not know if it was the TV, XBOX or Cable. Frustrating during the effort.

Not enough available apps

There's no way to pick and choose all the apps that I want to add. In this day and age people should be able to add any available app they choose and that's one of the major downfalls of this tv. Also, better gaming picture settings would make this tv better IMO.

Hello Sleepyhead, VIZIO is committed to giving consumers access to as much streaming content as possible. SmartCast televisions deliver today’s most popular apps like Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and others on the SmartCast TV home screen. The TVs also come with Watchfree, a no cost service that provides hundreds of channels with no additional purchase or registration requirements. SmartCast televisions also support Google Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2 so that you can share content from the latest applications on your phone, tablet, or computer directly to the TV.

Not impressed.

This TV has settings best served for folks who use cable or some other type of paid programming. My problem is, I don't have anything like that. I enjoy free local broadcasting with a simple antenna. Another problem is the remote control. The numbers at the bottom of the pad make it a two handed affair to change channels. And if you press any of the wrong buttons it takes you away from local broadcast and its an ordeal to get it back.

This application will do everything your current remote does and help you discover what applications will help you watch your favorite shows and movies. We do also support voice control using Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Worse than the vizio I was replacing

The day we bought it and set it up it kicked me out of Netflix and went to the home screen. Then I decided to change to watch local channels and the screen was scrambled and would not fix itself. The Vizio I replaced would just freeze up and cut off. The day I replaced it was because that morning I turned it off before I left and then that night it would not come back on. We had only had it 3 years.
