There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So, this was highly rated by various tech sites, and the criticisms were few and probably barely noticeable during real world use. Anyway, took the plunge and purchased. A fantastic decision. Relatively light, so easy for 2 people to lift and set upon a wall mount. The packaging and manner of extraction are ingenious and nicely protects the valuable QLED tv.
Before you rip open the box, read all the outside information, especially the side panel. It give you directions on how to remove the box from the tv. Follow those directions and you'll be glad you did.
The tv is very easy to install, and onscreen setup instructions are pretty foolproof. I chose to use hard wire ethernet to speed up the connection process, and later setup my wireless connection. But, to be honest, I know that using wired connections will be much quicker and reliable than wireless. However, Apple Airplay requires source and tv to be on same wifi to work. So, I'll keep the ethernet connection, and I saved the wifi name/password for selective needs.
For some reason, the tv had the picture setting at Vivid, which was a great picture, but very bright. The onscreen instructions said 'Calibrated' was the suggested setting for normal viewing. I chose "Calibrate Dark" which gives me a great picture with a touch less brightness.
Interestingly, while watching a Mission Impossible movie, I switched from Calibrated to Calibrated Dark, and then to Vivid. During the scene where Cruise is climbing the glass tower, the Vivid setting gave an unbelievable picture, incredible images of metal and glass, reflections, and scenic nuances. So, for normal tv fare, I think Calibrated Dark is great, for movies the Vivid setting might be best. I am still experimenting with what is best for different source material.
There is an issue regarding viewing from an angle. To be fair, this is an issue with most flat screen tv's, except plasma and maybe OLED. If I stand at an acute angle to the tv, yes, the picture is not crystal clear nor color true. Does anyone ever stand at this position to watch tv? No. For a 55" tv, most living rooms will have the sofa at least 7 feet away. Mine is about 7.5 feet away from the screen. My sofa is almost 100 inches wide. At all points on the sofa, the picture is uniformly fantastic. And sitting on the armrests, the same picture as sitting in the middle. So, yes, technically there is a cone of viewing, but it is far from a narrow zone.
So, this is a spec'ed out 4k TV, in my opinion. I am actually trying to justify purchasing another for the bedroom.
I think the picture on This tv is absolutely beautiful and well worth the money. I am very happy with this purchase. There have been complaints that Disney + is not a preloaded app for this tv, but the Disney + app has recently been added.
I would definitely recommend this tv.
I am going to keep updating this until I get this POS out of my house. To say I will never buy anything from Vizio is an understatement. This is supposed to be a TV. You press the button and it turns on. That's the basic function. But I tell you, this thing fails at that basic task at least 30% of the time. And you know when it does that? The time you're rushing to watch a live sports event. So you bring it up on your phone, click on the Chromecast option and the frigging TV refuses to turn on. If it's feeling charitable, it displays the Vizio logo that looks like an upside down V. If it's feeling particularly bitchy, it just doesn't even display anything to acknowledge my mashing on the power button.
Do not buy this TV. Do not buy any TV from Vizio. Stay away. I have 3 Samsung units with none of this issue. Heck, "my TV crashed" is a sentence that's never occurred to me before this experience. I hate that I bought this POS and I hate that something is holding me back from taking a baseball bat to it.
To recap: PLEASE BUY A DIFFERENT TV. This TV isn't the one for you. Unless you're Ted Cruz. He knows why.
-- Update 05-2022
I bought this TV in November 2019. I still haven't destroyed it in a fit of rage. But it's not because the TV has improved in quality. It's still an absolute piece of junk. It's a testament to my maturity cos younger me would definitely have smashed this useless piece of junk a la Office Space. Prior to this TV, I didn't know TVs can crash and crash so often. It's the absolute worst and I will never buy another Vizio product ever. And I will continue updating this review until my maturity fails me and I smash it in a million little pieces.
Once again DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK. Or any TV from Vizio.
-- Update 11-2020
This TV is the worst TV I've ever had. Do not buy it. If I could return it, I would. As it is, I will probably destroy it in a fit of frustration in the coming months. DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK. I regret buying this TV.
-------------------------------
I've had several Samsung smart TVs, mostly from Costco (great deals, Costco-specific models with not all the bells & whistles). This time I read the reviews and decided to buy this Vizio 'cos of the great picture quality. The reviews were right; the picture is great. But everything else is horrible. The apps suck and are so frigging slow to load. The NBC app in particular is so bad, I could drive down to the NBC affiliate in DC before the app loads! When it does load, it's in 720P...in 2020! The SMART Cast feature in general is subpar. For some odd reason it won't play premier league. I can cast any other live video from the NBCSN app to it with no problem. But for some reason not premier league. Did not have this issue with any other Chromecast in the house.
Bottom line: find a better TV. This is a horrible product.
