    Posted by: from Tupelo, MS on 04/02/2013I got this TV because I wanted a good LED 1080p device without having to pay a fortune for it. I researched several models and had previously purchased a Vizio that I've had for around 5 years. It's been a great TV, so I decided to go with them again. I'm not dissapointed. The picture seems a little bright on the sides at times, but it's not bothersome. I will say that (as will all HDTVs) you should have HD service if you buy one. The picture quality isn't great at the 50" size I purchased if you're not viewing HD programing. My only complaint is that the "apps" that come with the TV are lacking when it comes to items peope will actually use and the remote doesn't have a hidden keyboard that slides out to make typing easier. If you are looking for quality, but don't want to spend a lot of money, I think this TV will be a good choice for you.

    I love my first Smart TV
    5
    Posted by: from Orlando on 04/01/2013I have not purchased a TV in about 10 years, so I knew I wanted a quality TV, and I was not disappointed! It was easy to set up and has a great picture and price! My only hangup is that I cannot figure out how to get the picture to use the full screen. I have tried the widescreen/stretch/etc options and it still has a black border around it. I need to do some research....

    Great T.V.
    5
    Posted by: from Lexington, N.C. on 03/31/2013Great for watching movies and looks even better for PS3 games. When you first turn the T.V. On it has about a 10-15 second black screen before it gets going. Other than that no other issues. Easy to hook up to the Internet .

    Posted by: from Illinois on 03/31/2013My 2nd Vizio and I like this one better than the 1st. Smart TV is a breeze setting up (and using). Picture quality is very good. For the price you'd have a hard time beating this unit.

    Posted by: from Palm Bay, Florida on 03/30/2013This is our 3rd VIZIO TV and were are very impressed with the quality and price point. This TV has excellent picture quality and the built-in sound is very good also. This is our 1st Smart TV and we were very surprised at how easy it was to set up and get connected to our wireless network. At this price for this size Smart TV, you can't go wrong.
