Vizio E0VL review

 

Like most TV makers, Vizio offers a wide variety of features at different price points. The E0VL series reviewed here lacks the Internet and LED backlight options of the company's flagship XVT3 series , but its spec sheet and price tag hold the real...

Inexpensive for a 120Hz LCD; excellent color in bright areas; video processing handles 1080p/24 correctly; matte screen works well in bright lighting; solid picture adjustment options.

Reproduces relatively bright black levels; dark areas tinged blue; subpar off-angle viewing; benefits of 120Hz difficult to discern; fewer picture controls than some competitors; scarce analog inputs; ho-hum styling.

Among the least expensive 120Hz LCDs available, the Vizio E0VL series delivers a decent picture but falls a bit short of competitors.

Vizio E420VO Review – 42-inch LCD HDTV

 

Among the mid-range HDTVs that Vizio has introduced this year, this model has a permutation of some of the very good features to be released this year. The 42-inch set has the highest 1080p resolution which makes the images come alive. If you compare...

In keeping with the efforts by all HDTV manufacturers to keep the energy consumption low, Vizio has also introduced many features in this TV to keep the energy usage low. There is a built-in ambient light sensor which manages the brightness of the TV...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Happy with purchase

 

There are three things I should mention that are negative, but not worth being a con or take off an egg. My first negative remark is that there is a pressure spot. However, it's only visible when the screen is nearly black because the pressure spot is...

Uh... I don't really know what to put here. It's in great condition for a refurbished TV, but... coming from me, that doesn't mean much ; The best pro from me is that it hasn't died yet. I always hope that anything I get online doesn't die on me,...

It's one of those smart TVs with the Yahoo smart apps setup. I utterly hate that. I have found ways that I can remove it and change it to the Android or Google smart apps setup, but I don't have the funds to risk bricking (render 100% useless) my T.V.,...

Fully Satisfied

 

I do not use the speakers, nor do I use the remote. I cannot speak on the merits of either system.

The screen is bright and clear. All appearances suggest this was brand new, rather than refurbished. I have seen no signs of previous use ; Possibly the best black levels I've seen in the post CRT era ; I'm using this as a PC monitor, and it has been...

None thus far

Great Deal, Great TV

 

Got this for a youth room at work. It is a great TV. Couldn't even tell it was a refurb, because it still had all the stickers on it. Amazing picture and sound. I am looking to buy more Vizio TVs in the near future
