Great for the price

This tv fits like a glove in my entertainment center. The color is good and the setup was easy once I was able to install the firmware update. Getting the update not exactly seamless, though. My only dissatisfaction is the number of apps available. I have to screen cast to get HBO Max. Streaming just gives a much better experience.

Very nice TV!

Just bought it a couple of days ago...so far so good. Playstation 5 looks great on it,and the menus and setup are very intuitive.The tv automatically recognizes what I have plugged into my hdmi inputs when I power them on,and I can control them with the Vizio remote...nice touch! Also,it was at a great price,$289,with a 3 year warranty at Sam's.

Not what I hoped for.

I know several people who have this exact same television and have not had these problems. I have had so many problems with this unit. It constantly tells me that it can't find smartcast, it loses the internet connection a lot - right in the middle of watching it. The picture quality is sub par due to what I can only imagine is the connectivity issue.

Hello MStreb66, you should be able to have the SmartCast and app interface at all times as long as you are within an average range from your router and your network connection is stable. We’d really love the opportunity to have our tech support team run through some troubleshooting steps to see if we can get the TV up and running for you.

Great features

I bought this for our bedroom and mounted to wall. It has a great color picture with no pixelating and the internet connection is smooth and reliable. only issue is sometimes updates start right when I turn on tv and ready to watch, have to wait for those to finish before picture starts

Beautiful Picture, Awesome Color

The TV is excellent, glad we purchased it, however, had a complicated time setting the TV up. Turning it on took a lot of time, not having an indicator that the TV was on, pushed the button many times then it came on. I would suggest that more information be supplied regarding set up, turn-on and options showing how to connect to a satellite system, which selection should be chosen for cable, antenna, and satellite. More of a user manual should be supplied.

Nice tv but few bugs

I've had it for about two months now and every once in a while I have to plug it out and plug it back in from the electrical socket because pressing the power button shows a blank screen. I've also had to factory reset it because the date said 1999 which didn't allow me to watch Hulu. Would rate it 5 stars if those issues didn't happen.

Should've done more research!

This TV is great if all you want to do is watch regular cable TV. As far as being a smart TV, it's not so smart. There's no browser on this TV and you cannot download apps. It's extremely frustrating. I thought being able to cast would be a good thing but not so much. The sound and the picture do not sync. In other words you get the sound before they move their mouth. Again extremely frustrating! I was going to change from regular cable with spectrum to their streaming service and save myself a boatload of money but now I can't because I can't download the app to my smart TV. Worst purchase I've ever made. If I only knew then what I know now I would have returned it and bought a whole Roku TV system. All of that is beside the fact that the menu system is terrible. It's awkward and doesn't give you enough time to make a choice before disappearing. Even the tech from spectrum was not impressed with this unit. Now, unfortunately, being on the low-income side of life I'm saddled with this thing for however long it lasts.

Easy setup

This tv is the easiest to set up. I had no trouble adding on a soundbar, which normally takes forever! The picture is great and the sound is also pretty darn good, since I have a hearing disability. Don't always need closed captions with this tv. Thanks!

Great features!

I bought this TV about 3 or 4 months ago and it was good. I like that it's a smart TV and I can watch other show on apps. One thing is that it's slow coming on now and I can't get the base to work with it. The volume is not all that good. But good price.

TMI

I bought this 60" after the first 55" Vizeo quit powering up after a week. Like the size and is VERY difficult to navigate. It has too much stuff for me I just want a TV with Netflix and roku.was nearly impossible to operate the sound. Couldn't find the sensor. It finally started working this morning. If I didn't have internet I'd be screwed. No Manual - had to go online and download to print the features I wanted. Finally figured out how to get netflix-bought a ROKU to get other shows that I like.
