Can't go wrong with Vizio

I had my last Vizio for almost 12 years & although it still worked like a champ, it was time to upgrade. The 58” V-Series seemed like a no brainer. It's a great size & you can't beat the price. So far it's been outstanding. The picture is great, super easy to use/navigate & I love the SmartCast feature, tons of great apps, I don't think I've switched over to regular cable since I bought this two months ago. I'm not a huge tech person but the built in USB, AirPlay & Chromecast features are also winners in my book. Not that it's a deal breaker but I wish I was able to connect headphones via Bluetooth & a voice remote option would be nice. All in all, great TV for the price, I'm super happy & if it's anything like my last Vizio, these babies are built to last.

It's good, but missing a few other apps.

I bought this TV A few weeks ago and I mean i love it but it's would be way bette if there was a way to download other streaming apps like AppleTV, HBO, Cinemax, to name a few. Most of the apps I use are not available for this TV and that's kind of disappointing. Other than that quality is good, sound is good. Over all it's a great TV.

Great tv for the price! Love Vizio

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only one plan would be that the streaming services freeze up now I can't see if this is on Vizio sound or whether it's just a streaming app either way occasionally Netflix or etc. will freeze up and I won't be able to turn the TV off. I have to unplug it I've tried updates, but that doesn't seem to work, other than that the TV is great and the visual quality is great

An awesome TV

We have an older M series smart TV and D series smart TV. Both have issues with their "Smart"-ness. This V-series is awesome so far. Everything works smoothly and actually makes things easier. Hoping Disney + is an available app soon, but the included chromecast makes it easy to use as is.

Very impressive and the price was right.

This is my second Vizio TV but it is my 1st smart TV. Hands down the thing that keeps be coming back is the picture quality and color...not to mention my 1st Vizio is 7 years old and is still working as well as it did the day I bought it! This new TV was very easy to set up and was in use shortly after I got it home. Love this TV!

Full of features!

I bought this t.v. a month ago and am very pleased with the quality of the features and the materials used to make the t.v.. It has a bigger screen than others I've had prior! The features make using it so simple o ce it is all set up! Still learning and discovering fun tools and features!

Solid TV needs better Smarts

So far I am pleased with my Vizio TV though I haven't had a chance to fully immerse myself in 4K as I don't have a 4K player nor have I streamed a 4K movie. I like their SmartCast platform but to be honest I prefer the ROKU platform more and would strongly recommend Vizio consider that platform for its smart TVs. Why re-invent the wheel? The remote needs to be re-worked - it needs to have a "notch" on the bottom so your finger rests comfortably as you use it and helps you know which end is "up". Also, for a fairly large remote, the buttons are tiny.

Ok features.

Have had about 2 months. Was very busy and finally set up a couple weeks later. Hard to read screen from a few feet. The remote does not work very good. Sound bottom is almost non responsive. Wish I had done a little more research. Online directions are very vague. As far as I have been able to find apps can not be added. Wish I had purchased non smart version or another brand.

Easy to use

Good TV, easy to use, friendly features and lots of options. Image quality is SO SO for a 4K TV. It's not as good of picture quality as you would see from an LG or a Samsung but we've been happy with other Vizio TVs in the past so decided to give this one a try.

great value.

i bought this about 3 weeks ago. was torn between the vizio and Tcl. I chose vizio for the features that were available for the price. even though the vizio was $40 more than the TCL I still chose it. the main reason was for the direct full array vs full array. I checked various different reviews between the 2 models. and every one gave a light edge to the vizio in all but one category. the streaming service. TCL offers ROKU while vizio offers it's own version. since I don't do a lot of streaming I went with the vizio. besides I can always get a Roku unit anytime.
