Vizio SV471XVT 47-inch LCD TV Review

Vizio's SV471XVT 47-inch LCD is packed with a 240Hz SPS system with Smooth Motion, a revised LCD panel and a power supply that exceeds Energy Star 3.0 guidelines. Priced at only $1499 it's a steal.

Excellent color reproduction ; Universal learning remote ; Great value for picture quality ; Energy Star 3.0

240Hz mode is unpolished ; Remote lacks discrete inputs ; Only 1 component video input on rear of set

Vizio SV471XVT HDTV Review - Intro

The $1499 Vizio SV471XVT is an update to the SV470XVT, which was one of last years top performers. And this new display is very similar, with the addition of a USB port. We found that performance was mostly unchanged from the SV470XVT, with the...

The SV471XVT is a minor upgrade from the SV470XVT in many ways; the performance is similar and the feature set is very close. The only minor changes are a slightly brighter screen, an increase in the refresh rate to 240Hz and the addition of a USB port...

Review: Vizio SV471XVT HDTV

This 47-inch HDTV with multimedia capabilities has an estimated street price of $1200, which sounds good. But there are major compromises to be made with image quality.

Excellent remote control

Can't turn off illuminated logo on bezel ; Images marred by digital artifacts

Our test jury was not particularly impressed with the SV471XVT’s picture clarity: The TV struggled with moving objects on screen, and occasionally had trouble with still objects, too—it displayed plenty of digital artifacts and pixelation in lab's...

VIZIO SV471XVT 47-Inch 1080p LCD HDTVReview

This 47-inch LCD flat panel continues VIZIO's tradition of bringing affordable, big-screen HDTV to the masses. Just don't get stuck sitting off to the side.

Despite the hard time it had with a few of the HQV torture tests and its relatively narrow viewing angle, the SV471XVT is still a large and attractive display that's capable of delivering tremendous color and clarity with high definition programming....

VIZIO SV471XVT LCD HDTV Review

The 240 SPS VIZIO SV471XVT improves on its 120Hz predecessor. Though both can generate a startling 3D-like image, this new model achieves an artifact free consistency.

VIZIO SV471XVT

The SV471XVT is a 47-inch HDTV that continues Vizios winning streak of providing decent performance at a great price. Atlhough this update to the popular SV470XVT HDTV is not the top of the heap in performance terms, it is good value for money at...

The screen itself is on the large side of things: it is about 4 inches deep and weighs about 44 pounds. It eschews the trend for thinner screens because it uses conventional CCFL (Cold Cathode Florescent Lamp) backlights rather then the up and coming...

VIZIO SV471XVT Review – 47-inch LCD HDTV

SV471XVT. The new 47” SV471XVT is one of the larger models of the newly launched XVT series of the VIZIO group. With the launch of the XVT series, VIZIO enters into 240Hz fray. This new VIZIO SV471XVT has improvised dejudder processing as compared to...

Now entering the 21st century

After fighting this urge I broke down and bought my first HDTV. So nice. Colors vivid, Sound is good enough. I hooked up a ion computer and a roku box. It's like night and day with my old tube tv. We played 720p episodes of the Office and Better off...
