Pretty good

I bought a 50 inch vizio smart tv about 2 weeks ago and so far its been wonderful. The picture is vivid, its got plenty of hdmi cables and a lot of cool functions including amazon video, hulu and Netflix buttons. My only problem is sometimes for some reason the picture wont display and turning the tv off and on doesn't help. To fix this if i load netflix it will load that picture and then i can load my PlayStation. So far this has worked everytime and hopefully will continue to. Im not sure if its something wrong with the tv or something else. On top of that sometimes my volume wont work. To fix this i turned the tv off and on. If these things didnt happen it would definitely be a 5* review

Lot of built-in apps awesome

This is my second Vizio my first was a 2015 m-class 50 in then I just got to the V class 65 in the only thing I do not like about it if you cannot adjust the picture size other than that awesome and the fact that it did not have a 2.1 HDMI and is only 60 hertz I can deal with it

Great except when firmware is updated

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this TV. Picture is great and easy to navigate. The only issue is when firmware is updated. One of the most recent ones caused us to have to reboot the TV every time we turned it on so it would see the signal from the source. Another one prevented us from using the remote properly. All are fixed relatively quickly but still annoying when sitting down after a long day. The newest update was the best so far because it allows us to use an app to control the TV. Love that since my kids lose the regular remote all the time. Anyway, it is a great TV other than some small glitches along the way but at least they fix them pretty quickly.

Great Television For The $

Ever since we started buying flat panel televisions, they've been Vizio brand. Mostly because they are a really good product for the price. Having said that, this is the first "Smart" TV we have purchased. And although the the picture quality is very nice, and offers 4k quality viewing, at 60hertz, it still doesn't look or feel as lifelike as my son's or father in-law's Samsung televisions. Meaning; Watching on one of theirs, feels like you're there in person while the things happening on screen are being shot. And they aren't even in 3D. Perhaps it has do with Motion Rate, or something else that I know nothing about. I just know it's not the same. Which was somewhat of a letdown. Also, it would be nice, if a "Smart" TV was capable of having access to a Playstore & having other apps loaded onto it. All in all, it's still a good product for the price.

It's the BOMB!

I bought a 40inch Visio for my bedroom and found to be AWESOME! So when I decided to go big or go home for a tv for my sewing room I definitely sought out the Visio. Trust me when I say I am so happy with this TV. Yes, it is enormous but who ever complained that their TV was too big (not me). The colors are vibrant and sharp and the smart part of it is a freaking genius. My only worry is that I will break or loose the remote because that thing is the key to the knigdom.

Decent tv for the price.

I bought this 3 months ago and I e only had a few incidents where the tv was unresponsive. The sound quality is horrible you have to have it up to like 60/70 to actually hear it. But since I game with it it's not an all the time issue until it's time to watch tv with the family. The color depth is really good, shows look very fluid on it but if you want Crystal like detail you'll need to go up a class. It is a perfect tv if you plan on gaming and moderate tv watching (only because of the sound)

Hello Thatgamerguy, 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. If you’d like any help adjusting your audio settings feel free to contact VIZIO support at 844-254-8087.  For top of the line audio performance, you may also look into purchasing a VIZIO Sound Bar, there are several models available with wireless subwoofers for enhanced bass, rear speakers for true surround sound, and our new line of Atmos Sound Bars.

Easy to use

I bought 2 50inch tvs when I moved from az to fl...I am not fluent with technology and was afraid I would need lots of help to learn how to operate them...I was pleased with how easy it was to start watching on them...Chromecast, hulu, iheartradio, and all the free movies and shows make it user friendly even for those of us who are technologically challenged...great product Vizio....!!!!

All the features we were looking for!

Very pleased thus far. Few weeks in and I love that I can stream from my Apple device right to the tv. I can even share my Mac book pro screen! It connected easily with all the streaming apps we use, with the exception of the spectrum app that one is not available on FireTv but we hope it will come in a future update. I would recommend this tv, the picture quality has been great thus far!

Frustrating

None of the features are connecting, get excited when I go to launch a feature and nothing. Downloaded SmartCast and set it up and initially saw the remote on my phone and then it went away and now all I see is the power button. Channel Scan couldn't locate my channels and no manual

Extreme Premium "VALUE!!!"

What a unexpected surprise! We bought this Vizio V555-H1 to replace our 3ish year old Samsung that burnt out its screen. Looking for the biggest bang for the buck, this TV did not disappoint. The features and free streaming channels affords you a lot of view entertainment. Image quality on this model surpassed my expectations for the price. Honestly, I was anticipating a dimmer screen but, the picture is bright and vivid. If your looking into value-minded entertainment investment look no further.
