    I ordered this tv and it never works properly. I cannot access the apps all the time. Sometimes they do not show up at all. I don’t know if I just got a bad tv or if it’s just the quality of this tv. I wanted to exchange for a new one, but by the time I actually hooked it up I was out of my 15 day time frame.

    I’m returning this tv because it’s the worst tv that I ever bought. When you adjust one show if you change to another channel the color is messed up again. There is no getting the color correct for all stations. My non hd stations has a line running thru the top.

    Picture quality low, smart features awkward to use. Very difficult to navigate between smart tv, and channels - HORRIBLE! Don’t so small on screen you have to get right in front of it to see channel or? No owners manual - online only Top it off with Best Buy impossible to stop order weeks before shipping and ability to talk to no one. Best Buy sucks!!!!

      Hello John, at VIZIO we pride ourselves on our highly rated picture quality. To make sure you’re getting the most out of your VIZIO TV, we’d recommend making sure your devices are connected with an HDMI cable, and are set to broadcast in 4K (2160p) or Full HD (1080p). You can also individually adjust your picture settings in the menu. For brighter rooms, try using the ‘VIVID’ picture mode for a brighter, more colorful image. If you’d like any assistance adjusting these settings, our customer support team would love to help you dial in the TV to your preference, you can reach them at 844-254-8087.  VIZIO

      Hello Nations, Thank you for the feedback. A few things that might help you get the kind of picture quality you are looking for. First, make sure the Display is getting a hi-definition or 4K signal. This means making sure that you're source device (like a cable/satellite box) is capable of HD or 4K, and that it's connected to your Display with an HDMI cable that can deliver the HD or 4K picture. You can also change between pre-set picture modes on the display by pressing the PIC button on your remote. This will toggle between a few picture setting that look good in different situations. If your display is in a bright room try Vivid or Calibrated. If it’s in a dimmer room try Calibrated Dark. VIZIO

    Poor Quality TV

    Interface is painfully slow and glitchy, it’s extremely frustrating. After attempting to install updates, now the tv won’t turn on and must be unplugged and manually reset. I have a more expensive Sony tv that works seamlessly most of the time and I have never had to unplug it because it glitched out. All in all, you get what you pay for.

    I paid a little more for it because I thought it was supposed to be a little better than the models that are cheaper than it. It has no on screen guide. The layout is terrible. You have to be super quick with the remote or you end up starting your process all over again. It’s just not user-friendly at all. I can’t complain about the picture but that’s about all

    Worst purchase I have every made from Best Buy. Read the reviews and they were pretty positive. They were wrong. The “smart” tv doesn’t stream very well. Buffers like it’s 2002. The remote is garbage. I would take it back but the hassle with the COVID protocols ain’t worth my time. Had to buy a Roku stick to stream properly. Never but Vizio again.
