[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review is for the Vizio 32” Class HD Smart TV D-Series. I set this TV up in my daughter's room, so she's been able to use it for herself as well. When I first set up the TV, I made sure to download the updates prior to use to make sure it works to its best potential, including the WiFi connectivity. After the updates were completed, I was able to test out the different functions and see how well the TV worked overall. Here is what I found after just a few days of use:
Pro #1: The setup for this Vizio TV was rather easy. It was pretty self explanatory and I was able to set it up within 5 minutes then it was ready to use.
Pro #2: The picture quality on the TV a great. The picture is clear and doesn't look grainy. There's even the ability to change the picture mode such as “Vivid”, “Game”, “Computer”, “Standard”, which makes the picture exactly the way you want it to look depending on what you are watching or playing.
Pro #3 & Con #1: The sound quality is good with most videos. When watching in most apps, the sound quality is clear and stays pretty consistent. Unfortunately, here's where the con comes into play. While watching videos on certain apps such as Hulu and Netflix, the sound levels will be too high one minute then get too soft during a different scene. It does not seem to happen with each show on those two apps, but it's happened to a few movies/shows I've watched thus far.
Pro #4: The app center home screen has a great platform. There are plenty of apps to choose from and all of the apps that we use in our house are offered on this TV. The home screen also has its own channels to watch movies and TV shows made specifically for the Vizio TV owners. They are plenty of videos to choose from so we'll never get bored.
Pro #5: The WiFi connectivity works exactly as it should. The only time I have an issue with the WiFi is when my own person internet goes down, which has nothing to do with the TV itself. I have yet to have an issue with lag when watching a video either.
Overall, I would highly recommend this Vizio TV. It has many great qualities and works exactly as it's meant to. The 32” is the perfect size for my daughter's room and the set up for the remote and home screen makes it easy for her to navigate as she's only 6 years old. With the quality I've noticed this far, I expect it to last us quite a long time into the future.
