Product Manuals

Q: We have a 36" wide opening for a tv, will this fit? Dimensions say it will but can someone measure exactly and tell me if they are just shy of 36" like it states? If so, it will fit. Thanks!

A: Yes. I just setup the VIZIO D40U-D1 TV and it measured 35-7/8" wide by 23-1/4" tall, including the stand/legs. It is 21-3/8" tall without the stand.

Q: Why does this TV have an analog tuner? I thought there was no such thing any longer as analog, that everything switched over to digital some time ago.

A: The tuner on the D40u-D1 is both an analog and digital tuner. There are some cable providers who still use analog signals. Thanks!-Jesse

Q: Does this TV get Google play

A: No, this does not get Google play.

Q: Does it stream Amazon Prime? I didn't see it listed. Thanks!

A: It has Amazon instant video and Amazon Prime.

Q: What is the weight of this tv?

A: 17.2

Q: I just got the vizio model D40U-D1. is the there any way to see the OTA signal strength of a channel using my outdoor antenna?

A: "MOST" VIZIOS - GO TO MENU> SYSTEM INFORMATION AND THEN SCROLL DOWN TO CHANNEL INFORMATION-SIGNAL QUALITY

Q: Can I plan video from a USB? I'm told the SmartCast ones can't so I want to make sure this one can.

A: This model supports video, audio and photo file types. Please feel free to contact us at chat.vizio.com or 1-877-878-4946 and we would be happy to help you. -Randal

Q: Does this TV Upscale form HD to UHD?

A: Vizio is using the word "upscale" very loosely. The source resolution is the resolution you get. It tries to make it look better but there is a HUGE difference between a native 1080P source and a native 2160P source. You cannot make the original signal much better than it actually is. Just think about the difference between a DVD and a Blu-Ray in an upscaling player. Anyone can tell the difference. In fact I to me it is quite the opposite. Bad resolution sources look worse on better TV's.

Vizio has lived to it'a Reputation
The TV is " Awesome" . It has been a little getting use to the Vivid 4K color , cause I was use to the every day High Definition , but once You adjust the color to your liking You will expirrience an amazing spectrum of color . Watch a movie like " Avengers" or " X-Men" or even "Mad Max" and enjoy the wonderful color it has to offer . If you stand in front of it you will notice pixelation and it sorta looks Bad , but when You see it from a good Distance it gives You what You want to see , Amazing color . The world of 4K is broad and pending the brand and price it will give You more , but this Vizio 40in D series I am truly Happy and Satisfied and recommend . I bought as an upgrade for My bedroom from an older Vizio model 32 in and it is more than I expected . I believe the 40 in has already been replaced by a 43 in but they are improving every time . Just take the time and compare and You also will see what I saw , Give it a shot and You won't regret it .

One of the best Budget TV/monitor I have seen!
I have a 27" 1440P IPS gaming monitor and I have been trying to find an adequate replacement for my older AOC 27" 1080p TN monitor that I used as a 2nd monitor. I have tried 4K monitors but they weren't HDCP compliant so no 4K streaming would play on them despite their high speed HDMI. I thought I might give the Vizio a try. It's 14ms response is glacially slow compared to a monitor but thanks to reviewers here I gave it a go. It makes a great monitor and even better TV. I play Doom at 2160p with a EVGA GTX1060 as a secondary monitor with no stutters, tears, artifacts and great frame rates. Same with every game that supports 4K resolution,. The Netflix 4K streaming is incredible (Stranger Things, Narcos, Orange Is the New Black, etc). It seems to be the last of the tuner equipped TV's as well. For the same price as a 28" 4K monitor I now have most of the better streaming features of my Fire Stick, a TV, and a great monitor. The speaker is adequate but it also outputs over variable stereo jacks and HDMI. It was plug and play with Win10. It was light enough for me to use my articulating wall mount that should only handle a 32". I have a 70" Vizio E series 1080P TV and I just don't see that much difference with the budget D series. Very happy with the TV and with BB's return policy you risk nothing to give it a try. The only negative I can say is the presets for me are kind of a waste. I run on either Computer or Game. Vivid is atomicallly bright and the other three are either too dark or have unrealistic hues. Other negative is the WORST remote I have ever used. So small and crowded I constantly hit the wrong button and impossible to see in a dark room and just not well laid out. It is also impossible to set up wireless when connected to an ethernet cable and for some reason it shows about half of my actual speed when connected to a wired connection. Given all that those are just annoyances to me and definitely not deal killers especially at $379!

Excellent gaming display
Great display. Plenty of connection ports. I am not using this to watch cable TV, I bought it for streaming services and to pair with an Xbox One S. Although it does have several 4K HDMI ports, only one is 4K@60hz, where I have the Xbox hooked up to. I wish it had HDR, but you would need to spend a lot more money for a TV with that feature. Netflix app at 4K looks fantastic. I like that the info button from remote will show the current display resolution for what you are watching. Also I was happy to see this model had an RCA Out port. I hooked this up to a Logitech Z323 computer speaker set that has RCA In port, so I have great sound at minimum expense. The available apps are about standard, I would like to see a few more big name apps added, like MLB.TV or HBO GO, perhaps Visio will add these later. Overall I would highly recommend this TV, especially as a game display.
