There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Second, the connectivity issues with the subwoofer (and connected satellite speakers). There will be intermittent drops. It'll play for 3 seconds, then drop and reconnect, and do this for endlessly. The firmware is up to date (1.12.11.1), the subwoofer is 3-4 feet away from the soundbar. I have re-paired them, nothing helps.
It's such a pain, I really regret buying this when so many people warned others about these exact issues. Even if Vizio can fix this, I don't really want to keep this setup. I'd rather pay another $100 more to have a working setup.
2022 Update: Still not working, firmware update 1.31.06.1 has just made things worse. Never buy anything Vizio, please listen.
Won't bother changing for a different brand.
Top reviews from other countries
I tried the Vizio app but it would not find the soundbar, it's easier to setup without it and I have not touched it since. Setup honestly took me and my daughter about 10 minutes, my Sony TV picked it up right away (via eARC) and have had no issues.
Of course after trying it for a week or two, the famous return begins. First you by it from Simple Works, but Stateside answered your message. It's goes like this for a couple of weeks, to find out that it is Amazone that gives it to you. Here the kicker, they won't give you a refund after 7 days after they receives the system, but they kindly tell you that it will take an extras month after they received it. You call Amazon and they will give you stupid answer like, well they have to open the boxes, looks at it, which can take 2-3 weeks. If you want my advice, go to the nearest store that sell better systems and not only they will give you tech support, but CUSTOMER SERVICE, then if you do not like it they will refund you no hassle.
LIKE I SAID IF YOU WANT AFTER SALES SERVICE, TECH SUPPORT OR REFUND YOU WILL FIND IT AT YOUR LOCAL SOUND STORE
