When we first saw this t.v. I thought it was a return or refurbished t.v. because the price was so low ($698). My husband has been dreaming of a smart t.v. so we grabbed it right up. The picture is Gorgeous! I have been watching a lot of Nat Geo Wild! We finally watched "Avatar" on the "game" picture setting last night and WOW!!! The WiFi is great, we love being able to access Netflix, etc. and the movies load very quickly. We have surround sound connected, but the t.v.'s speakers are pretty good on their own. The only drawback is the remote control. It really should have a keyboard on the backside. Surfing the net is so much easier when it isn't one letter click at a time. That still doesn't take away from its value. Set up was a snap and the options are easy to negotiate. All in All, We Love this TV!!! We're still not sure it was priced right. LOL It's definitely worth more. So, Go Get One!

After to buy several TV's in Walmart, I decided buy this Vizio E500i based in my experience in electronics, and some commercials. My mistake! this equipment began working good about two hours, after that time I couldn't change the channel, volume, look for the menu, nothing. I have to put it off and begin again, after ten minutes the same situation, completely block the tv section. I sent it back for a refund, fortunately in Walmart is a problem. I'm not recommend this product because one of one is 100% wrong.

I never considered Vizio until I read the Consumer Reports reviews. Thank heavens I did that; it prevented me from making a major mistake with the big "blue box store" house brand. I have a very high-end 60-inch set in my main home and wanted a smaller LED set for a vacation home but didn't want to spend the significant fortune I spent on the other set. The Vizio does not have the picture quality of a set that costs over four times as much, but the picture is very good, indeed. For my own tastes the "standard picture" setting which is the factory default is disappointing. Change the setting on the video menu to "sports" or "vivid" or one of the other options and the screen just comes alive. The sound quality is very good. The wireless streaming functions work very well, and the set easily finds and connects to the wireless system in the home. Be aware you need at least 7 mbps or preferable 15+ mbps of internet speed to be able to use the streaming capabilities without frustrating buffering problems. But that is not a Vizio issue; it is true of all streaming services. I normally don't buy extended warranties, but Walmart charges so little for an extra three years of protection that it seemed silly not to buy it. If you want to spend a lot more money, you can find a set with a better picture, but if you are budget minded, you cannot go wrong with this set.

After 32 days the t.v. stopped working. I could not turn off the power by remote or button on the tv itself. The screen would suddenly show "Unable to retrieve data". I my cable box showed I had excellent signal. I could only get it to work again by unplugging the tv and turning it back on. Strange, and not a good sign for future. I had to return the t.v. Wal-mart accepts returns on tv's up to 90 days with a receipt. (whew). Too bad because it was a great deal.

Feel free to laugh as I realize flat screen TVs have been out for years now, but I believe in using something until it quits before replacing it. That brings me to 2013 before buying my first flat screen tv. I spent many hours researching my different options. Did I want LED, LCD, plasma, SMART capabilities, 120 vs 60hz, etc.. When I finally decided I on this Vizio, I was very hesitant because I was purchasing it online instead of in the store. It arrived a day earlier than expected in excellent condition. I only wish that Walmart had required a delivery signature. It would make sense considering the cost of replacing the item! Needless to say, I LOVE THIS TV!!!! It was better than expected in every way. The picture is amazing. I have brought people over just see it and they are equally impressed. I never understood what the big deal about HD was. Now, I completely get it. There are some programs where it almost feels like you could stick your hand right into the picture. I have already recommended it many times and will continue to do so. This product was definitely worth my money!

My husband and I are in love with this TV. With our old TV we were using a PC hook up so we can us the computer on the big screen because it was convenient. Now with this TV no more wires no more PC inside our Bedroom. This Big Guy is sitting all by itself on our bedroom dresser. The set up was easy and the HD quality is insane. We were watching 'The Croods' in Super HD quality and it definitely lived up to its name. If you haven't purchased this kind of TV before you should. It is worth it.

I bought this tv at an amazing price using Wal Marts Holiday Price Match feature on a day where Best Buy was holding a one day super sale on it, so as you can imagine I was super pumped. I was upgrading from my 42in LCD Magnavox, which I have owned for about 4 years. After having the TV set up for about a month, Im now contemplating a return or selling it at a discounted value of what Wal-Mart is selling it for. Let me tell you why.. .. CONS *PICTURE- First off, I'm not trying to totally knock Vizio or this tv itself, as it could just be a personal issue I have. Im 30 yrs old and have never had an issue watching a tv and getting headaches until this one. I can't watch the tv for more than 30 mins without getting eye strain and headache symptons. I have tried to adjust anything and everything with the picture and my vision is just not adjusting! This particular TV uses the LED Backlighting Feature, which you can dim, but it flickers when dimmed. The factory picture settings on the TV are awful, so if you do end up buying this, your going to have to tinker your settings to your own liking. I have watched tons sports, movies, played video games in a span of a month but have yet to find a picture setting that I can enjoy and stare at the screen without having an issue. I dont think the tv is 120hz as its stated, there are times it seems the picture is trying to catch up with the action while watching football, or just recently watching a blu ray the motion of the movie just seemed off. As of right now, I have gone with the RETAIL SETTING, with some personal adjustments, it's crazy bright, but you don't notice the flickering lights as much with the Backlight turned up to 100%. I did contact Vizio's Customer service, just to see if they could help me with setting up the picture, and they told me I need to see my eye docotor!?? Ok, well thanks for that. I'll end this con by saying, I can watch my 42inch LCD all day long, without any issues, maybe there arent as many features, and its not a "Smart" TV, but the picture is clear and doesnt leave me rubbing my head and eyes constantly! Also, the Smart TV features are pretty basic, it's all the same stuff that you'd get with a gaming system or Blu Ray Player. If you own one of those, don't let the "Smart" features sell you! Again I don't want to totally knock the tv, and Im sure there are plenty of ppl who would love this tv, there are some great PROS... 4 HDMI Ports- Perfect if you use multiple devices on your tv that support HD Super Slim and Light Weight, so easy to move around if your not sure what room you want it in and easy to get behind if you need to plug in another device

This tv is the best value you could possibly find, the features this tv boasts is very impressive, similar models from Samsung and Panasonic are going to get well over $1000. the wifi is fluid and responsive and all the apps work extremely well. love the thin frame, makes the screen look that much bigger. this tv is virtually perfect....I own a samsing led and love it, but this vizio takes the cake with its crisp picture, and honestly has the best audio ive ever heard out of a flat screen which is really impressive. go buy this tv. now!!

Best purchase I've made in a long time! My family and I absolutely LOVE this TV! The picture in awesome, sound quality is great and the built-in Wi-Fi is fun to use. The slim frame makes the 50" screen appear mucn larger. I highly recommend purchasing this VIZIO!

Well it simply makes no sense buying a product online which your money is good enough to have it shipped to your country but your money is not good enough to allow you to be availed of all the features. I downloaded app after app for movies and none worked. They all said they were not available in the Caribbean. The credit card would not be accepted as it only wanted US cards. Come on. So why would I buy a smart TV if it could do nothing but show everyone and everything bigger that a normal TV. I am disappointed because I feel as if my money has less value than people in the US....Which it does, but let's just say I paid the same amount that any American would have had to pay and I am NOT impressed...The faster VIZIO and WALMART can address this, the faster I can come back and edit my ire to pleasure.
