Wonder features and apps

We purchased this tv when our Samsung 55" suddenly went on the blink only one month after its year warranty. We had planned to go small, like a 50," but the 58" was the same price as the 50" so it was a no-brainer! We are so happy with the quality, size and the price.

Best tv and features for the size

My 2nd VIZIO and I am always happy with the quality for the price I pay. I wanted to go bigger and better but I have a small living room and this was the best I found. Most other tvs this size are 60 hz. I watch a lot of sports and this tv does the trick. I don't know if this tv is truly 120hz. The description said so. Id like to see it on the box though in big bold type. TRUE 120 HZ. Great tv and the gaming engine works well too. Blacks are dark, contrast is good, and I can watch it in a sunlight room with the blinds open. And 3 hdmi's. And I don't think the factory speakers are bad either. Worth every penny.

Great picture, good sound, great features for apps

I Bought this back in March 2020, compared to a lot of other similar sizes and brands. I am very pleased with this 65” Vizio V-Series smart TV. Great price for the features and quality. I would definitely recommend one of these in your bedroom or living area. I have mine in my bedroom and it's perfect. Also I would recommend a sound bar for better sound quality for larger surrounding areas.

Software issues galore!

We bought three of these for various locations. At first, they seemed like such a great deal... but they're designed to keep updating their software. Almost EVERY update has produced different issues. Almost every one has been less stable than the last one. Vizio seems to keep making quick fixes to issues instead of actually FIXING the problems. Sound gets fuzzy and distorted, sound fixed but close captioning keeps bombing out, captioning works (kind of...) but entire TV locks up, etc... No matter what the current issue, it'll be consistent across all three TV's. It happens SO much that I've had to install separate power switches so we can reboot them easier. BUT... They were priced nicely. Next time, I spend more and buy another brand. Vizio has gone downhill since the earlier days.

Beautiful picture. Great features. one flaw

This TV was bought for my mother-in-law's space. It seemed great after initial setup, but when she tried to turn it on the next morning, there was no sound. The TV reported "no audio signal." I checked all the connections and eventually unplugged the TV and restarted, and the sound was back. Unfortunately, this was a chronic problem. Some research online confirmed that I wasn't the only person with this problem. Some people who shared their solutions seemed okay with unplugging each time they wanted to watch TV. Others tried other solutions. For convenience's sake, and because it wasn't for me, rather my mother in law, we returned the product to the place of purchase and bought another brand. If it had been for me, I may have experimented a little longer to try to find a solution. I have another Vizio TV, and have not had similar problems.

Great Bang for the Buck!

I am a hard grader and the only reason this is not 5/5 is because we have no hours on it thus far. I bought this for the wife's gym area. Easy set-up and ready to rock in no time and feature rich. Money well spent in my book and she is going to love it!

It's ok

The tv is ok. The quality of the picture is great but the sound quality is horrible. I really like the fact that I can screen share my iPhone but when I tried to set up my home I was very limited to what I could do and then I tried to set up Google assistance but that was also an epic fail. Also I think there should be an option to add and remove apps from the tv.

reply from Customer Service

Hello Crystal5055, 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. We would love to help with setting up your Google Home and other devices. When you have a free moment, they’re available through text message, chat, or over the phone. Just go to support.VIZIO.com and click on ‘Contact Us’.

Glitches

Sometimes the apps loose connections with the internet, even after I restart my apps, tv, and router. It's crazy, for the TV is hooked up via ethernet cable. The solution has now been to disconnect the TV from the outlet and wait 10 seconds. Sometimes it doesn't work, but simply repeat until it does. The other day I wanted to factory reset my TV, but the option was not there. Like it would not load the tab under system. It simply glitches sometimes unfortunately.

Fully back lit

This is one of the TVs that is fully backlit that stays consistent from every angle the colors do not fade an you can see this TV from every angle in the room I love it my old LG was fully back late but you would get picture fade at an angle I love this Vizio but you have to be patient when it's time to set it up because it has a lot of downloads before you watch the TV other than that very satisfied. I love the Vizio logo that shows when you first turn it on thank you Vizio for making a quality product.

Quality and clear picture

My first Visio...I usually buy Samsung or Sony TV's but since this was for a second hm and I didn't want to spend allot of money I went for it. I'm very pleased w/the colors/clear picture as nice as my expensive Samsung I bought 2 yrs ago...Need another large screen and will again consider your brand
