Picture quality

Got this about a week ago the first one I got was broke on the inside no outside damage. The replacement I got kinda sucks! The picture quality isn't very good my TV from 2006 had better quality. The coloring is kinda yellow can't duff it no matter what I try. Do disappointed! We just completed our forever home thought we would get a new TV to go in to and end up with this

Excellent TV. 2nd Vizio Purchase

This is my 2nd Vizio TV. The 1st is in the family room ( purchased 6 yrs ago) and is still an excellent TV ( picture /sound) perfect. I bought this 2nd Vizio to replace a SHARP TV where the picture was starting to get distorted. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Just wish I would have gotten the M-Series ( cause only a Vizio can top a Vizio!)

Great all around product

Up graded cause out old Vizeo was going out. after 9 years of heavy use. Vizeo products are great equipment for the price. This Product has great picture and the online aspect of this version is way better then the older version. Color is amazing and a crisp clear picture. The sound is very high quality for tv speakers over all would purchase again

Exceptional picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am completely satisfied with this purchase! I am so glad I chose this for my bedroom television. It is the perfect size and the clarity and sound are unbelievable. If you're in the market for television, this is absolutely one of the best I have owned in a while. Keep it up Vizio.

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!

Like it, but it's quirky

Had these two Visio tvs for about a year. Both work well, but both are quirky when streaming. I have a strong, stable wifi signal and Internet connection that I have zero problems streaming on to other devices, but both of my Visio tvs (43" and 68") frequently need rebooting during streaming. Picture will freeze, or drop out completely. No amount of changing settings will fix it (yes, I've performed all the suggested fixes), and rewinding the stream results in a complete loss of control. Only thing that restores function is hitting 'menu' and then 'restart'. The Roku tv we have has none of this problem on the exact same wifi/Internet connection, and it's further from the router than the two Visios. Love the picture quality, and they have amazingly good quality audio, just wish this streaming problem would resolve itself. Would I recommend a Visio tv to a friend? Yes, but with the caution that they may have problems streaming. Connected to DirecTV and even OTH they work fantastic.

Could be great, if it worked...

The TV has a solid picture with decent enough color depth and response time, but ongoing issues with audio quality and completely some completely non-functional features prevent the TV from being an acceptable offering, even at a budget price. Video (5/5) The picture quality is fantastic for the price point, especially when compared to other TVs in the price range. A little time spent calibrating the display and enabling the gaming mode brought the image quality and responsiveness into the realm of devices nearly twice the price (note: the input delay prior to enabling the gaming mode was one of the worst I have experienced, but that was an easy fix). Some light bleed can be spotted, especially on flat neutral backgrounds, think a solid grey screen. This issue is common in all sets at this price point and markedly less than many of the comparable TVs. OS (1/5) We were unable to correctly set the date/time for the TV. When connected via WiFi or ethernet, the auto-detect feature set the TV to Jan 8, 2020 with a time offset of 1 hour and 54 minutes. Attempting to manually set the time lets you select the timezone, but not actually correct the time or date. Most included Apps work fine, but the built in YouTube and YouTube TV apps loaded a generic "Page could not be displayed" error. The overall menu structure was functional, but not as user friendly or snappy as comparable TV models. Audio (1/5) Audio through the TV is hit or miss, audio from the included Netflix app works great, but casting to the TV via the built in cast feature or attached Chromecast Ultra produces loud popping noises and appears to alternate losing the right or left audio channels randomly. Connecting any external device produced complete cut-out every time audio was started. These cut-outs would last 1-5 seconds and only occurred when audio resumed after a quiet period (think every pause during speaking). This was tested on a PS4/Pro, XBox S/X, PC Audio and Chromecast Ultra. Multiple brands of HDMI cables were tested and each attached device was tested on a nearby TCL TV, which had did not produce the same issues. We attempted a factory reset and checked for updates via the system menu - these steps failed to resolve the issue. Given the seemingly numerous and so far unresolvable issues, I cannot recommend the TV, especially when other, similarly priced options, are available.

Overall a great TV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new updated allows for easier access to all apps and eases searching too. Great quality picture and sounds. Only downside is that the remote sensor is offset to the bottom right and the remote has to be aimed exactly there. I think centering would have been better.

Display quality is bad. Build quality is decent

Picked up this tv on 12/05/2020. At first, I was impressed with the tv. After a few days though, I started noticing the budget tv qualities. I came from an ONN brand 1080p tv. And after comparing them, the ONN brand one looks so much better. It's more vibrant, colorful and more clear. This vizio is grainy, flat colors and the screen uniformity is awful. I am being sent a replacement due to the terrible uniformity of the display. When watching shows or whatever, and the camera pans across a room or something everything looks like some parts are dark and some are bright. Very distracting, Hopefully the replacement is better.

Second week, it has been a good tv since purchased

First smart tv. Bought this 2 weeks ago. It's super light, so easy to carry it anywhere. I had a fire tv stick before buying it. For the first few days, the tv remote was working as the fire tv remote also. Then it stopped working as a fire tv remote. I bought this tv as they were offering 3 year warranty. So I guess am good for at least 3 years. Touch wood. The built quality seems nice. The video quality is good. The sound is also doing alright though it does not give that woofer effect. But it's a good one given the price. Till now it's behaving better than the 50 inch Hisense.
