Great price for great features!

I bought this television to replace my older Samsung smart LED tv. This Vizio tv has a better picture and the overall smart TV operating system is so much faster than my previous one. The apple airplay also makes it a world of difference to watch shows or listen to music I can't access with the apps available on the tv. I'll be buying vizio's from here on out!

Perfect size, good picture, poor interface

I have had a few HD and 4k sets over the past few years, from the likes of Samsung, LG, Vizio, and others. Of all of them, the Vizio has the worst user interface of any of them. Not very intuitive, lacking some controls that are available on other sets, and a menu system that makes you hunt for the setting you're looking for. That said, the picture quality is pretty good, the connectivity options are great, and it is the perfect size for the armoire that used to house a CRT TV a long time ago. Finding a 4k TV in a 40" form factor is difficult, and the picture quality on this one did not disappoint.

Great Price... Low Quality

We bought this TV after having a great experience with a 70” Vizio that we had used for almost 7 years. The disappointment started from the moment we turned on the TV. At the top of the screen (especially in dark environments with a dark screen) this TV displays white hold at the top of the picture. It really distracts you from the viewing experience. In addition, one of the TV's speakers is now blown, and we've never turned the volume above 25 out of 100. Every time there is a show or movie with strong lows/bass, the right speaker buzzes like crazy. Overall, very disappointed, and tfis will likely be our last Vizio.

Needs some work...

I wouldn't really call it a smart TV. You can't download apps that aren't already pre-installed. I don't use iHeartRadio, I use Spotify. So I'm unable to download the app to listen to music through my television like I normally do. You can use Alexa to manipulate the TV, but only when it's on. Alexa can't turn on or off the TV.

Big screen with a fair price!

I bought the Vizio 70” a few weeks ago. If your not used to a high resolution TV this model will do the job. What I was excited about was the smart features. I can turn my TV on or off along with other options using my Voice, no more searching for the remote! I can also change TV source adjust volume and other voice commands. Having all the major streaming services with the push of a button on remote or sent from my phone. The best feature for me wS the VIZIO channels that are included for free! I believe 100+ great for someone like me who doesn't like paying a heft cable bill especially when they are offered free through VIZIO.

Good TV, Excellent Value

This is a really great TV for the price point. The picture is great, it is super light and easy to mount. I love the smart TV features, we use it for 100% internet TV. There are only two small issues. Every once in a while the operating system hangs up and you can't select the apps you want. Even returning to the home screen doesn't seem to remedy it. Sometimes you have to keep selecting different apps to finally get it to return to normal. This has happened twice in a month, not a super big deal, it feels like it's probably a bug fix that may get fixed in a software update. The only other small issue is the sound quality is not the best. Its not bad, but if you like to listen to music etc, you may want to connect a secondary surround sound system. Overall this is a great product, I don't think you'll find a better 50 inch 4K TV for the price.

Wonderful Television

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My household has been needing another Smart TV for quite a while Amazing lightweight television that can be mounted to your wall if you choose. I absolutely love the Vizio V-series 55' tv it well exceeded my expectations,! Ultra HD color spectrum is honest to goodness perfect! Equipped with automatic updates & features. Works with Google assist. & you can stream & more rright from your phone has hands free tv voice control. So exciting to be able to hook it up & within 5 minutes the apps installed on it start working immediately. it connected to my Wi-Fi services extremely fast and I was able to watch live TV on an app that's already. installed great sound wonderful picture quality very lightweight

Great visual experience haunted by buggy firmware

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] (Note: This review is of the 2019 V-Series, aka v405-g9) The picture quality of this TV is truly excellent. And SmartCast, Visio's Smart TV interface, has a decent front end and I'm still getting firmware updates, about 2-3/yr. Bad things:. The onboard speakers are crap. Order a Vizio sound bar and the disable the onboards. You will thank me. 2nd gripe: The remote is unlit and cheap feeling (tbf, my original still works mostly every time, despite many abuses). My most negative experience with this TV has been with the stability of the firmware updates. Over the years this TV has suffered from what I can best describe as semi reproducible bugginess. The soft work glitches are not crippling but they can leave certain features disabled until the next firmware update in rare cases. In the end I think this comes down to you get what you pay for. I got a really great screen for an extremely low price and the hidden cost is that I need to unplug it into a hard restart at least once a week. I've learned to live with it ;-)

Very disappointed

My friend has bought Vizio TVs and had no problem. But she has the smaller ones. We should have known because we first got a 65" and the screen was broken, we returned the same day. The second one 65" had half the screen black and read the 65" had a problem with that. So we got a 60" and the sound doesnt match all the times, I have to turn it off and back on again. After every commerical it is off again. So disappointed and the sound isn't very good.

Terrible!

I bought a Samsung tv last year and have really wanted a Vizio for a long. So we bought one for our new house to put in the living room and it is awful! It glitches off, it just shuts off without even touching the remote! I hate this tv I will be returning it and buying a Samsung!
