Chromcast out of date

Bought this TV to Stream Disney+ on Chromecast. Found out when I went to stream Disney, it didn't work. Had to find out through social media the installed Chromecast is out of date. Also Vizio has not released plans for an update. App to connect phone was also difficult. Had to hard boot TV and router. Otherwise I like the TV.

Hello Frowe14, You can view Disney+ on some VIZIO SmartCast TVs by 'Casting' the content from the Disney+ app on a compatible device. You can also use the AirPlay feature of your VIZIO TV with an iOS device running iOS12.3 or later or a Mac device running 10.14.5 or later.

Easy set up. Free Pluto. Great features.

Received TV as a gift for Christmas and really love the features. TV does an automatic systems update when you first turn it on. The ultra 4k resolution is truly remarkable for it's price point. Quite light weight for the size. I have it running on WIFI and have zero buffering issues; no drop outs using the regulars digital antenna. I really love this TV.

User Friendly - Has Everything We Need!

Was so happy to replace our older Vizio with the newer "smart" model that is loaded with all of the apps we use to watch movies and TV shows. Highly considering dumping our Dish now that we have this TV! Been using it for a couple months now and we absolutely love it. It's so user friendly our 4 year old figured out how to operate it and can easily pop on the shows he likes to watch. That is a bonus on busy mornings we are all trying to get ready for work/school - the kiddo is all set with the Sesame Street app! Highly recommend!

Great TV for the Price - Smart apps getting there

For average folks like me, this TV shows a great picture and the smart features are fast and plentiful. I don't have a high end TV with HDR content to compare - but to my eye I'm getting bang for the buck with this TV. SmartCast is getting there - though with some minor frustrations that have included an update that failed installation (right at the start), apps with weird volume issues but only during ads, and AirPlay 2 streaming had some ups and downs. Nevertheless, loading apps is fast and this is the only TV at this price point to give me as many smart features for integrated apps, AirPlay/Chromecast streaming from devices, integration with voice command (e.g. HomeKit), and comes at 43 inches which was my limitation. Plenty of bang for the buck that, hopefully, will only get better as SmartCast gets updated.

Great Tv

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just recently bought this tv I had and when I brought it home to set it up. I realized they had a new update that allowed to connect to Alexa and apple home device. This was a major plus and also made it to where you can organize the apps you use on it. Would recommend!

After "3" of these.

Will after three the third being the one i have were defective in one way or the other they finally shipped me a replacement with ( At the moment) one issue i believe. The only thing that is ongoing is when your using your cable ONLY you are LIMITED to settings you can use. The other are faded out .I can only use the Backlight and Brightness then it skips over Contrast,Color Tint,and Sharpness. Same in the advanced picture mode audio etc. But when i use anything else in the smart part like netflix, amazon, youtube and 4k player you can acess all of the settings. Doesnt make sense. Vizio says its a defect but yet still that way. But will keep it. The color on this tv are bvery nice. I do notice some granulations on some channels . Its worth dealing with Vizio they have been GREAT .Thanks

Great tv

We needed a bigger television with ability to stream Hulu and other services. This 50in Vizio fit the bill. I did purchase a sound bar (speakers are in the back -I hadn't noticed when purchasing. The sound bar is SO much better anyway! Easy to pair and works on the remote. We recently ditched cable and now just stream This Vizio also adds extra free shows and content.

Fantastic picture

I know someone with a Vizio, and the first thing that struck me was the clarity of the picture. Amazing, so glad I purchased one. The Dolby 50" has it's drawbacks, one is the audio. I don't have it running thru a sound system, just the TV audio, which does not have the depth and quality of sound I expected, but overall wonderful product.

Lots of features but not all work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only after able 9 months of owning the TV, some is the apps freeze after able five minutes is use or they do not work at all. All user manuals explain how to clear cache in strings but this TV does not have the option in settings. Have to run some apps from phone and cast to tv. Picture even blacks out from time to time. Tried master reboot, reset to factory settings, and unplugging for ten minutes. None help.

Easy to use and access internet programing

I enjoy the TV which was purchased for my master bedroom. Picture is great except for wide viewing angles, which the picture color seems a bit washed out. Still that is a minor issue and overall the picture is good. Also, I found that the TV seems to have no audio adjustments to enhance the sound. Other than those two items the TV preforms well and I consider it a great purchase and would purchase another Vizio TV as the need arises.
