It's a Good TV... when it works

I've owned Vizio products before with no issue, so didn't think twice about purchasing this TV. I did read some negative reviews about it but I know there's negative reviews on all products so I didn't think much of it. That was three months ago and I am now finding those negative reviews to be true. We have constant connectivity issues where it'll just randomly drop its connection and the only way to solve it is by either unplugging the TV or rebooting it —I know it's only an issue for this TV because it won't happen to our other TV's. Every night at 11 PM on the dot, we have this same connection issue (not sure why it's always that time.) We also have some audio issues that'll happen out of the blue. We'll be watching our shows with no issue, and then randomly the audio will act up and the best way I can describe it is that it sounds just like your voice would sound as a kid when you would sit in front of a fan and talk into it. The solution for this is to back out of the program and go back to it, and then it corrects itself. I had high hopes for this TV but these pesky issues have us searching out a new one. Maybe it's just this particular model, but I'll know now to trust the negative reviews I read on future products.

Easy to set up and use

We bought this to replace our 40 inch tv and it has been super. Great picture and easy to set up with our ps4, dvd and surround sound. The on board speakers are fine for the spoken word but not great to action sounds so we have a sound system for that.

It was difficult in getting my VIZIO setup.

I had a difficult time trying to get my Vizio setup. It didn't have the greatest instruction. Everything was online. I wished I had a paper manuel to refer for assistance. I had to watch several different Youtube videos to figure out the setup. It didn't have the current updates. Since I purchased my tv, I couldn't watch any streaming channels for 4 days. I wasn't really happy with the purchase, but it's better than it was. I am a previous owner of Vizio television and I really enjoyed my old tv, which still works. I wanted an upgrade where I could stream from my WiFi.

Good for the Price

This TV is a nice upgrade. I do have some issues, can't always get it to use the special features and sometimes volumecontrolis off. But If I unplug it and plug it back in it normally sets things right. But i've only had it a couple months, so not sure how long of a life it's going to have lol if I'm already having issues with it.

Clarity

The wife and I have started watching K-Dramas which with our old TV we weren't able to read the sub text too well, so we were often times needing to pause the program and ask about plot lines. This set; problem solved. Great colors and easy to understand menu.

Outperforms!

I purchased this TV after the Insignia I purchased stopped working after 1 year. I have other Vizio televisions that has lasted 10 years so I decided that I would stay with the tried and true and purchased this Vizio. I am so excited for the updated features, visuals and sound quality!

Overall decent

Minor complaints. Sometimes it just shuts off wifi capabilities. (Despite being 7ft from the router and everything else continuing to connect and remain connected just fine). The remote app shouldn't have premium features. It's a remote ffs, but that's more on the devs of the app.

Poor Quality

I heard good things about Vizio, I actually have a Vizio sound bar that I like. But the TV I purchased didn't meet the standards I was looking for. It was 50 inch I could see pixels the sound of the speakers was terrible, screen was very bright. All in all I returned it and brought a lg.

Vizio smartcast is everything you need!

We LOVE our Vizio smartcast tv's! We have purchased a total of 3. We have 2 and gifted one. The picture is clear. The menu area is easy to navigate. Chromecast BUILT IN!! No more plug in on the back of the tv! I can cast from my phone, tablet or laptop to the tv screen. You can access SO MANY apps from the menu, too many to list! On top of all of that, you get 140 FREE channels! You can watch game shows, court shows, movies, westerns, shows and more!! You can DITCH THE CABLE with this tv! The only negative is the volume. We have to turn it up to about 43 to hear it well. Other than that, this is the best tv we have ever owned! I recommend them to people ALL THE TIME! A personal care home where I volunteer has even purchased them!
