We love it but . . .

Let's start out with the very positive . . . overall we're very pleased with the purchase. The picture and sound quality are excellent. This is the second 4K UHD TV we own, the other being a Sharp. Comparing the two pictures, although they are both exceptional, I'd give a slight edge to the Vizio. The colors seem more vibrant and the images are very sharp. So why not a 5 ⭐ rating? Twice now the TV has stopped recognizing the remote ( . . . both the Vizio and the upgraded Roku remotes) and once ( . . . so far) the entire setup process had to be redone from scratch. The TV had to be unplugged and replugged in order to get the remotes working again. It worked but it's a brand new set and we shouldn't have to worry about things like that. Would we buy another Vizio??? Absolutely. Would it be the only 4K UHD TV that we look at??? Absolutely not. But it would absolutely be in the running!!!

Great TV

I've never had a bad product from Vizio and I'm willing to bet I never will either. The 4k UHD quality is phenomenal. The sound is perfect, which is rare these days with TVs. It has a great range of apps and I'm sure, in time, they will add newer apps for some new streaming services. Overall I cannot complain about anything because, well, there's nothing wrong!!!

Good Price for size but not great overall

For the size of the TV, the picture quality is a little disappointing. Also, there has been multiple times where it freezes and the only way for it to be fixed is unplugging it, I wouldn't complain about that if i hadn't got this TV less than 2 months ago. TV's are expensive so it's not awful pricing considering the size but I was expecting more. Also, why is there no HBO app?

Hello charlie96, at VIZIO we pride ourselves on our highly rated picture quality. To make sure you’re getting the most out of you VIZIO TV, we’d recommend making sure your devices are connected with an HDMI cable, and are set to broadcast in 4K (2160p) or Full HD (1080p).

Great picture great features

Bought the TV a few weeks back... have only owned Vizzio TV for last 15 years. The set up for TV incorporates all the inputs I need with ease. This TV has revolutionized the way I watch TV. Satellite, DVD, local, and streaming.... Easiest TV to use I have ever owned. Love it.

Had to return it

I bought this TV at Wal-Mart on Christmas eve, hooked it up to our fiber internet. The move buttons would work fine and the picture was fine but when you hit the select button, such as changing the channels you had to wait for a few minutes for it to select the channel, same way with the volume you press up or down wait a few minutes then the volume would go up or down. It is like the processor inside was delayed.

Easy to maneuver

I am a television lover! With all the reasons to stay home these days; having this big beautiful screen with quality factory features.. well I will just say, the Vizio brand is a smart purchase this is my third one, still have my first two; a 32” and a 36” I think.. now a 50” in my new bedroom!!

It has everything

We purchased this a couple weeks ago and it has been great. Everything is available on this tv, you need no other gadgets to do what you want on your TV. You can even program your phone, tablet to the screen to do things as well. I'm older but learn alot of things everyday about this TV. It was diffently a great purchase at a great price.

Wonderful TV except....

This is probably one of the most amazing TV's iv ever owned except the fact that when I connect my PS4 to it and shut the TV off I have to soft power cycle the TV to get it to work or anything. It's very weird and drives me absolutely crazy because then my PS4 doesn't want to work properly either and after disconnecting them both, power cycling, and waiting some time things start to work normal. Also I can't click on alot of the apps that are "preinstalled" on the TV as well. Like Vudu, Tidal, etc. I've done 99% of the troubleshooting things and still have issues to this day

Hi Karmatose88! The TV turning off might be something with the CEC setting. We recommend turning CEC off or to ARC Only and seeing if the same thing happens. If it does, please reach out to our customer support team at 877-878-4946 and we would be happy to help however we can!

Vizio has to ask ...what's app?

TV has great picture, sound, and Google home integration. The number of free apps with live programming is astounding. The lack of an app store and some key missing players like a browser or disney+ (as of mid February 2020) is an utter disappointment.

First TV

Just got my first apartment and was tired of hand me down TVs, I basically stole the thing it was so cheap I love it! The picture is great, the Home Screen is easy to maneuver, the function is simple, and I paired it with a vizio sound bar and it's just an amazing set up.
