Best deal for the money

 

This is the first Vizio TV I ever bought and wanted to get a larger TV than the 37" Sharp Aquos I had. I was hesitant due to some of the reviews, but figured I could take it back if unsatisfied. I have had the TV for about a month and love it! It...

Start up a deal breaker

 

I had high hopes for Vizio. Standing back and taking in all the TVs, Vizio always looked good to me. Finally got the TV home and found out start up takes forever. It is 15+ seconds from the time I hit the button until there is something on the screen....

Great TV

 

Great TV, excellent picture for sports and movies. Good enough sound for news, Jeopardy, etc, but needs help for movies and anything immersive. I use a Vizio soundbar and a stereo for Breaking Bad and NFL.

sharp, clean picture, good refresh rate, nice interface, well done wifi modules like netflix, intuitive operations

marginal sound

Great TV

 

I can't believe the picture quality! I had a Samsung LCD but it died after 6 years. The Vizio LED is far superior. Sound is better also. Internet onboard is a plus also. Only drawback is not enough inputs. It has 4 HDMI but only one composite input....
