Great TV

I have had my new Vizio TV for a couple of weeks and am very pleased with it. Set-up could not have been easier. The TV almost sets itself up. Still have a couple of things to do, like wire it for ethernet, but that's due to my having to wait on the cables I ordered. Right out of the box, it's keeping me well-entertained even without ethernet connected yet. I could not be happier with my purchase.

Defect

When trying to lower or higher the volume, it takes a very long time for the sound to change. Also when put on the maximum volume, it's as if the sound is still low. It keeps freezing when changing channels. And tv will turn off on its own. Overall it's either defective or poorly made.

Excellent TV

I enjoy the Vizio 40 inch 4K UHD tv. What I like about this tv is that the UHD shows greater detail than the 1080p full HD. I also like the red, white, and yellow plugs in the back of the tv to hook up basic or HD AV cables so I can play video games. This tv is excellent!

Just what I was looking for and even more

I brought this TV last month and I'm so happy that I did. I work in the electronics department at my job and whenever someone asks me what kind of TV should I buy I always tell them do yourself a favor and get yourself a Vizio TV you'll not regret it at all

Good purchase

We have not had the TV that long but the "smart features" are nice and no firestick is required to access premium channels. Reception is good and the product has an uncomplicated set-up with its built-in start up software to get the customer up and running. As the saying goes, "So far so good."

A few quirks

Only owned it since Superbowl Sunday! But, it synced nicely with my Vizio soundbar. My issue is that you can't change channels with tv remote while watching Cable, only with Smartcast, or local programs! So you still need your cable box remote. And while watching Smartcast, or Free tv, and you switch channels, it's impossible to get/view previous program watched. Needs a Centralized Numbered Channel Guide, so you know what Free tv/Smartcast channel you're watching!!

NICE!

Bought this to replace a Hisense TV that my son broke. This Vizio seems to be a great budget TV and so far I have not experienced any issues after owning it for a few days. I like the quantity of HDMI ports as well as USB ports and it's nice they can be reached from the side(as long as your arm isn't too fat).

Outstanding Quality and Value

Bought this to replace a 13 year old 50” plasma that's still going strong but lacks the smart tv features and with only 2 HDMI inputs. The VIZIO is an excellent upgrade into the smart tv genre. With 3 HDMI inputs, built in Chromecast, Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Amazon Prime Video, Xumo, and iHeart RADIO apps, there's plenty of entertainment options with an internet connection.

Feature hit or miss

My wife and I just got married and got a 50" tv for our new place. We set it up and I went with Vizio solely for the reason it had built in Chromecast and airdrop (since my wife) is and apple user. Well those feature are a hit or miss. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I like Vizio so I give it 3 stars cuz there customer service is great just hate that I have to soft rest my TV for get the features to work properly.

Balanced

It's been a year since I bought the TV. I enjoy the content that is offered, and resolution is good. Had to get a soundbar to make sound better. Have had a few problems, such as Google Home unlinking which required a soft cycle power, and sometimes the SmartCast App does not work appropriately and lag here and there. However, the price was not bad for this kind of TV.
