    We recently purchases the 50" VIZIO tv to replace our previous LG tv. Best Buy had the best price and it was in stock. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the tv. Set up was easy (we did it in 20 minutes) and the picture and sound are excellent. Great product.

    This TV has been exactly what I could've asked for. Ease of use: This TV is incredible intuitive. Logging into apps, setting up new devices connected through HDMI, etc. I have connected 3 devices and an antennae over HDMI flawlessly. Casting: Casting to this TV from any device is so simple. Whether you are using AirPlay or casting from Android it connects with ease every time. Smart TV: Using the smart features is smooth and has never caused any issue. I often bounce between using the Smart apps on the TV and my xbox because they both work wonderfully. With prior tvs I would avoid their apps altogether because they caused so many issues. Field of View: This is maybe the first area the TV struggles a bit. If you are at extreme angles the picture can get a bit washed out.

    Great 4K tv for a single mom on a budget. My girls love that it works easy with Apple TV, phone, iPod etc. The set up was very easy. It could use a sound bar to enhance the sound. But overall great deal for the price and 4K technology

    Great picture and plenty of free apps to enjoy programs from. The sound is average, you'd do well to invest in a soundbar. The remote can be touchy for big fingers, it's easy to push the wrong button.

    Bought this TV as a replacement for my old 37 inch one. Right out of the gate the picture is awesome and has some great features. It is a light TV. One draw back is the stock speakers are not very loud. Other than that the TV is pretty great.

    My old Not So Smart television finally burned out and so I went out to Best Buy and one of the sales reps helped me find the best television for my budget. What sold me on this Vizio smart TV was the full array backlight (vs. edge-lit) that brings out more depth in darker scenes. The picture quality is amazing and the screen fits nicely in my IKEA entertainment center and fills up my living room like a movie screen. Sound quality took a little tweaking of the settings to get to my liking and I'm considering a sound bar for more of a cinematic experience. Vizio's SMARTCAST offers all the subscription services such as Hulu, Amazon Prime, Netflix, along with dozens of other apps. Setting it up with my Comcast cable and wi-fi was a breeze. I've had the television a little over a month and so far I'm happy with my purchase. It feels as if for $300 I got a $1000 TV.

    TV for the Bedroom I did not want

    I went to Best Buy to purchase a TV. But let's be honest, I wanted a low key cheap TV because it was going to go in the bedroom; which I didn't really approve of in the first place. See, we have a roommate, and I didn't want to crowd the living room. So i decided, sure, why not, harmless. Well, the sales rep (who was the most helpful I've ever had) showed me that I could get much more for the money I was going to spend anyway. He did it, he talked me into this guy. Now, I can never leave my bedroom. All I want to do is watch this TV. The picture and color are better than the TV in the living room. AND! They have awesome apps like Pluto where I can watch "live" TV. I've never watched so much Fear Factor and MTV Music videos in my life... more than the 90s. This TV has ruined my sleep habits and taken over the house. Best purchase. Worth it.

    This is the third Vizio TV purchased over the years. No problem with the other two but just wanted a new one to have 4K. Easy setup. Excellent picture quality and sound for the money. Would be nice if legs were adjustable though.

    I’ve had this TV almost 2 months. The quality is pretty good and has all the features expected. As other people have said, once you adjust the picture settings a bit, the view is good. Definitely worth it for the low price.

    Made this purchase as an outdoor TV - we're expecting to have it for several years to come as our friends have had the same Vizio TV outside their home for years! Color, sound, & picture quality are great...& so was the price!

    This is my first smart 4k tv I got for my room. Best choice ! Love how it has apps like Netflix and redbox on there. There are many more apps installed on the tv. Sound is good and quality is too. The remote is easy to use and has easy access options to certain apps. I like how it has its own tv channels although I mainly just use Netflix ! I linked my phone with the Apple home app and SmartCast app and it works great ! Virtual remote where you can change channels and turn on an off the tv from your phone. I can also mirror video or pics from my phone to the tv. I love this tv and will always stick with VIZIO smart tv ! Best Choice !!

    I've had no problems with this tv since I bought it and the picture is great for the price. Of course the picture is not as great as some of the higher-end models, but it is certainly an improvement from a 1080p tv.

    I shopped around for a budget 4K TV and went with this TV. Here's my quick breakdown: Picture: Great. Only gripe was non-HD content but it's a rare occurrence that I watch non-HD content. TV Menu Interface: Excellent. The UI is intuitive and the fact that it has Airplay and GoogleCast built-in are a big plus. Most of the streaming apps are here, Netflix, Amazon, Vudu, etc. The only streaming service not present was GooglePlay Movies... but that wasn't a big deal, since you can cast that from your phone. Inputs: Good. The number of HDMI inputs were decent with 3. Value: Excellent. I got this on sale for $275. Even at the regular pricer of $299, this is a good value with all of the features and picture quality.

    I bought my folks a Toshiba Fire TV for Christmas but they had trouble with all the apps and navigating between inputs, plus since they cut the cable cord, it was difficult for them to find something to watch (other than Prime movies.) So... I took the Fire TV and bought them them this one. The picture is bright and clear, navigating inputs is much easier, they only need one remote (unless they use the Blu-ray player) and with WatchFree, they have a ton of channels to watch, freely and without clicking on an endless number of apps. I wish I had bought the Vizio in the beginning... great TVs.

    Clear picture with easy to maneuver home screen. I think it’s a more appropriate TV for someone looking to run it solely as a smart TV. Have had a few issues with cable box connected to TV.
