    Great Picture - That's about it

    The Good The picture is fantastic. Don't go lower than the M Series because it has wide color gamut and you want that for Dolby Vision and other HDR content. The local dimming zones make a huge difference. The Bad The SmartCast UI is really slow and jerky. It's also not flexible at all in terms of adding or removing apps. You're stuck with what's in the Vizio ecosystem. Switching from SmartCast back to HDMI via Harmony Remote isn't happening. I spent weeks with Logitech/Harmony support, including trying test device drivers for the TV but it's still no go. I came up with a workaround but the family can't follow it so it's not useful. Finally got a TiVo Stream 4K for Dolby Vision content and switching between the HDMI inputs works fine. So essentially, I'm not using the "smart" part of this TV at all. It's just a display. The Ugly It's not ugly. It's a nice looking display.

    Had a Toshiba 1080P LED that died after 10 years. Picked this up for 299 for the Master Bedroom and was blown away by the picture!

    If you're looking for a tv with an incredible picture, then this is it. If you're looking for an awesome picture and decent access to apps like you'd get on an Amazon Fire tv or Roku tv, then you are going to be seriously disappointed. Overall set quality is great, but it wasn't what I was looking for...but that was on me.

    A whole lot of bang for the buck. The only thing that would make it even better would be the ability to add apps.

    Always buy LGs....but thought I'd take a chance on Vizio.. Open Box did not state power cord. Had to drive back to store. Store Manager agreed to a $30 credit on account due to mistake. I very much value it when a store realizes they made a mistake and look to correct it. Cut the chord a few months back...still the 120 refresh is amazing. Next time will probably get a Vizio and not LF

    This is my 2nd Vizio TV & I have been pleasantly surprised with the quality. I did notice several other user complaints about a delay in launching certain apps. Maybe it’s a millennial thing, but I have yet to experience any bothersome delays in launching the apps, although I have not really used the TV that much at the time of this review. Purchased in August & just got it setup about 1 week ago.

    My first big flat-screen TV; many decided it was the best for my small space over the fireplace. Was one of the only brands that still have analog A/V outputs, which I need. Has many features I wasn't sure if I would use, but it's growing on me. This replaced a Hitachi 27" tube receiver/monitor; am now in the modern age! Most features were intuitive-no manual needed. Would have been nice if the remote had some backlighting, but it works great, and is quite small (I hate big remotes!).
