Was working well until recently

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this TV for over a year now and it was working fine until recently. It would have its moments where it would freeze and I would have to unplug the TV for it to reset, but that hardly happened. About 2 months ago I lost the remote, so I started using the app in place of the lost remote. I am not sure if it is the app that is messing with the TV, or if the TV itself is starting to glitch out more. My TV now freezes at least once or twice a week, sometimes more. Other than having to get up to unplug it, it is a great TV with all the features that I need.

way better than it should be at this price

Of course you can get a TV that's either got blacker blacks (OLED, etc.), higher resolution (ultra-mega-4D nonsense), more limitless feature set (smart enough to do and turn in your kid's homework, so he can stay focused on important stuff ... like what's on TV), or that's a smidge cheaper or way way more expensive. Those are all outliers. If you're just looking for a great picture on a big ole screen, with tons of streaming options out of the box and more coming in OTA all the time, with much better sound than something so thin ought to be able to produce, that's as easy to set up and operate as it is reliable and affordable, then take my advice. We created our spreadsheet laying out all the specs. We visited the five different stores, gawking at and comparing at least a dozen makes/models and prices. This Vizio was easily the overall winner on paper and on display. And a year later, we still couldn't be happier with it.

Outstanding value. Packed with premium features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Three years ago, I was introduced to VIZIO's SmartCast M-Series HDTVs. At that time 4K (2160p) displays were the mainstream standard, with HDR (High Dynamic Range) being the new must-have feature for Ultra-HD home theater displays. Since then, 4K HDR Smart TV's with improved Stream/Casting features have become the market standard. For the 2021 model year, VIZIO has adapted by dividing their HDTV product lines between value-driven and premium-feature consumers. For under $300 you get a 58-inch 4K UHD display loaded with HDR10+ support, SmartCast 4.0 technology, 802.11n Dual Band Wi-Fi, and VIZIO's new V-Gaming Engine featuring Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and AMD FreeSync. In this review, I test the VIZIO V585x-H1 58″ 4K HDR Smart TV. This review covers the 58″ VIZIO V585x-H1 model, which joins a wide selection of value-priced 4K displays available in the following size classes: 40″, 43″ 50″, 55″, 58″, 60″ 65″, 70″, and 75″. VIZIO's entire V-Series shares identical performance hardware features and connectivity options, regardless of panel size-class. Each arrives with a one-year VIZIO Parts & Labor warranty, and free Lifetime Technical Support. Panels on VIZIO V-series displays deliver a 60 Hz effective refresh rate, and presented in 16:9 aspect ratio. VIZIO's proprietary Ultra Color Spectrum technology delivers a wide color gamut, and offers a dynamic contrast ratio of 200,000:1. VIZIO V-Series black levels are reproduced by a full-array local dimming solution, which is to be expected considering their value pricing. VIZIO's M- and P-series panels offer increasingly-impressive local dimming zones that deliver incredible black levels – for an added price. This 58″ VIZIO V585x-H1 model measures 51.38″ x 32.43″ x 10.24″ (1305.05 mm x 823.72 mm x 260.1 mm) with the stands installed, and weighs 32-lbs (14.6 Kg). Without the stands, this display measures 51.38″ x 30.02″ x 3.39″ (1305.05 mm x 762.51 mm x 86.11 mm) for panel only. If you plan to wall-mount this display, the VESA-compliant mounting pattern measures 300 mm x 300 mm, and accepts M6 screws up to 14 mm long. The viewable angle for V-Series panels is 178° horizontal, and 178° vertical. All 2021 V-Series home theater displays feature 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz dual band 802.11n Wi-Fi. Users wo are in need of Bluetooth or 802.11ac connectivity should look to VIZIO's M- or P-Series HDTVs. With such a streamlined feature package, power consumption is one area where the V-series shines. In standby mode, power consumption is a miserly half-watt or less for this 58″ display. During typical use, power consumption rises to only 90 Watts for the VIZIO V585x-H1 model. Energy Guide estimates $20 yearly cost based on 5 hours/day. Smart TV's have come a long way since their introduction, and VIZIO's SmartCast 4.0 technology proves that point with widespread compatibility for their budget V-series lineup. Every popular streaming app is supported, but if you find yourself wanting to ‘cast' to the TV from another device, it can be done from any of the following platforms: Android 4.4+, iOS 9.0+, Mac OS 10.9+, Chrome 28+, and Windows 7+. While offered to the value market, the backside of V-series Smart TVs deliver some premium features not typically available at this price segment. 4K HDR panels aside, you get a wide array of connectivity options: three HDMI 2.1 ports, Composite, Ethernet, USB 2.0, and an over-the-air TV tuner – something not available on many 4K displays. Two rear/bottom-firing 10W speakers offer decent audio output, with good mid and high-range reproduction. Outputs on the V-series include three HDMI 2.1 ports with eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel), a Digital Audio output (TOSLINK, S/PDIF), and an Analog Audio output to enable sound to a wide variety of legacy home theater devices. The USB 2.0 port is specified for storage devices formatted with a FAT32 partition, but NTFS also works. VIZIO's SmartCast mobile app is available for those who keep a device handy at all times, but for everyone else the XRT140 remote control is more than capable. This remote adds six quick-launch buttons at the top, along with a Watch Free button to browse over-the-air and streaming stations. Two Duracell AAA batteries are included for the remote. If all else fails, a basic set of power, volume, and input select buttons are available at the side of the display. Much of 2020 has been spent at home, with plenty of free time consumed by seeking relief in front of the TV. These conditions push value to the forefront of consumer concerns, and place added interest in the market segment. VIZIO's 2021 V-series models account for this, and strike the ideal balance of premium features with budget-friendly pricing. For under $300 you get a 58-inch 4K UHD display with HDR10+ support, versatile casting compatibility, full streaming service support, a wide variety of input and output connections, and VIZIO's new V-Gaming Engine featuring Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) with AMD FreeSync. As I evaluated the VIZIO V585x-H1, it was difficult to avoid comparisons to the M-series products that I already own. Really, there were only two standout features missing from V-series: 1) Wireless-AC compatibility, which, if I'm being honest, has no perceivable impact on streaming service quality when compared against Wireless-N, and 2) local dimming zones for darker black levels, which are actually still nice and dark with full-array local dimming. I've handled this 58″ VIZIO V585x-H1 display more than most people will handle their home theater television during its entire product lifetime. I've wall mounted it, and moved it to three different table top locations. I've turned it over several times, and handled it while going up and down stairs. This display is very rigid, and quite durable. VIZIO provides a one-year warranty to the original purchaser against defect in materials and workmanship for non-commercial usage and ninety (90) days of commercial use. Limited technical support is provided for the life of this product. If a SmartCast M-series product covered by warranty is defective, VIZIO will either repair or replace the unit. Consumers may reach VIZIO technical support at techsupport@vizio.com, or by telephone at 877-698-4946. In conclusion, I recommend the 2021 VIZIO V-series displays for budget-minded consumers wanting a versatile 4K Smart HDTV with HDR10+ and a full compliment of streaming services and casting compatibility. Heading into Black Friday priced under $300 for this 58″ model, you cannot possibly go wrong.

Everything you could ever want in a tv

My mother in laws tv just quit. I looked for a tv with several features, that easy to use and good quality. I have owned Vizio before and loved them. So we compared this tv to several others in its relative class. The Vizio was by far the better deal with more features and bang for the buck. Fantastic sound and picture right out of the box! You can't ask for more than that.

Glitches

Sometimes the apps loose connections with the internet, even after I restart my apps, tv, and router. It's crazy, for the TV is hooked up via ethernet cable. The solution has now been to disconnect the TV from the outlet and wait 10 seconds. Sometimes it doesn't work, but simply repeat until it does. The other day I wanted to factory reset my TV, but the option was not there. Like it would not load the tab under system. It simply glitches sometimes unfortunately.

Mine didn't work so well

The mirror casting doesn't work. I didn't buy it for this feature but I was happy that it had it. Then I was disappointed because it doesn't work. The cord is on the short side. Our house is older and it's not our priority to do electrical things at this point. We just got it today so I haven't experienced it all.

Great value!!

I am truly impressed with the value this TV offers. Picture quality is WELL above comparable TVs in other brands. Smart TV features are plentiful and run well. Features like both Dolby Vision and HDR10 at this price point is amazing. Full array backlit LED is welcome as well and the contrast is impressive. Remote is a bit cheap but it gets the job done. All in all I doubt there is a better TV for the money to be found.

Great Picture

Had another brand get a line through the middle of the TV after 3 years. I have another Vizio 6+ years old and it is still going. Saw this for a great deal and decided to replace the now broken TV. Has an even better picture than the other brand. App navigation is great (other bad reviews said theirs were laggy...mine has no issues). Only reason not 5 stars is because I've already had to reset the TV to factory settings due to the wifi all of a sudden decided to not connect. Hope it is a one-time issue.

Fantastic TV

I love everything about our new 70 inch Vizio TV. I have been a long time customer of the Vizio Brand. This TV exceeds all expectations. Easy to set up, easy to operate. Picture quality is absolutely Fantastic. I Love this TV so much that we purchased one for our Church to display, video and power point presentations for our Church services. Best of all the built in Chrome Cast feature is very important for me, because we enjoy streaming a multitude of sports casts that are not available on normal cable tv service. We absolutely love this TV and would highly recommend it!

Great when it is working correctly

The sound will go off or not come on and has to be unplugged and restarted. The video drops and sometime the connection can be wiggled or requires unplugging and restarting. e have a service request for a replacement. We have an email that has a tracking number that does not work. When the trouble ticket is accessed after searching for the entry to key in the ticket number, it says it may be a while before the replacement ships. Still don't know what is to be done with the defective one.
