    I've had my Vizio for about a month and im very pleased with my purchase.. The picture quality is amazing and it is perfect with my PS4(online, HDR gaming etc.) The only downfall of this display is the sound quality.. A sound bar is a must have.. Otherwise, i think anyone will enjoy this TV for a wide range of things.

    I love the little table remote! It allows ease of access to smart features and apps. With a tap on the touch screen tablet/smart remote you can stream from internet, NetFlix, ...right to the TV screen! Many other cool features I'm still learning. Very good picture quality, I'm no Gamer using the screen just for cinema viewing.

    This is a really great tv. I've only had it a week or so and am still learning its features. Great picture with Directv. Have not tried any 4K yet. Other reviews indicate this tv's internal speakers are a bit week. This is true. I went back and picked up a soundbar. Happy camper.

    Bought a floor discontinued model for a great price. I was frustrated until we ordered a newer remote from the manufacturer. I could never figure out how to get tv stations without signing up for cable but now I can flip between very limited cable service & Netflix.

    For a TV it's great but connectivity honestly sucks when it comes to Wi-Fi or direct connection for internet. The colors are great and 4k is amazing but after a short period of time (few months) the TV screen starts to flicker and will sometimes fade out on half the screen.

    I really enjoy this TV. I tried a sharp TV first and the blacks just weren't dark enough so I returned that TV and have this a shot. I have been very pleased with the purchase of it. The picture is gorgeous and I can look at 4K videos all day because of how impressive this TV is. The only thing not that impressive is the tablet that comes with it. It's not a bad tablet but I use my phone instead for ease of use.

    The TV is good,. Even watching 1080 content. There is not much available 4k content to watch and 4k blue ray players are expensive. I used a Roku and Vudu and was able to stream Mad Max 4k. It looks great.

    The TV works great and has a beautiful picture. Not sure about the sound, because I hooked up my sound bar right when I got the TV. I love the 4k. However, I have found that the TV looses the internet connection often. This seems to be a problem with most smart TVs.

      Thanks for your purchase and feedback on the all-new VIZIO SmartCast™ P50-C1 model. We’re happy to share that we recently made changes to the product setup experience in order to make it easier and more intuitive. Because VIZIO SmartCast™ puts control of the display into your mobile device, we’re now able to make updates much faster and more frequently, right to your VIZIO SmartCast™ app. We recommend a reset on the TV as this may eliminate the loss of wifi connection if the issue is with the TV and not your network.

That’s why we’re committed to continuous improvement which is going to make VIZIO SmartCast™ the best streaming experience and easiest way to control your display from anywhere in your home.

    Vizio put a clear 4K tv with a tablet remote at a great price. The picture is vivid and the tv is fast. The smart features are great, I have a Samsung and a sharp and really like where Vizio is going with their smart center. The tablet remote gives you the ability to stream straight from the tablet and provides an alternative to having to deal with cable or satellite. Cool and convenient

    From the moment I first turned it on it impressed me, I've owned over 10 HDTV and 2 4K UHD, and for its price nothing comes even close. It's brightness, image definition and oustanding pixelation puts it at the head of it's class, My neighbor purchased his other brand UHD TV the same time as I did so we did a side by side comparison and he has'nt spoken too me since, I love it!

    This thing is awesome. I bought 2 of these. The clarity for the price cant be beat. I'll buy another ... heck ill consider one of these for every room. For tv that is so called better, you can get two of these for the price of one. The upscalling is great, playing 4k pc games on this display is awesome.

    Excellent picture quality at a great price. This product is not a tv per say, it is an uhd display, there is no tuner for over the air tv signal. Picture calibration is a drag, it may take a while to reach a satisfying picture setting

    There is a slight learning curve to this tv, but if you know how to use an Android device, it's very easy to learn. Smartcast is pretty easy to understand and if you download Google Home (formerly Chromecast App) to your Smartphone, Tablet, or Computer, you can stream that to the TV easily. It's a little confusing enabling 4k on this. Overall, awesome TV.

    This TV has a fantastic image quality the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because that image quality is rather narrow, you must be sitting in front of the TV to get the best image quality. Anything past maybe 15 degrees to the sides and the image loses quality rapidly. This is perfect for a bedroom where you know the TV will be right in front of you 90% of the time. I Purchase both the 55" and the 50" to test them out since they are different panels on each. the 55 has much better viewing angles but the picture on the 50 is superior... if you sit on the sides of the 50 its almost like viewing the 55 inch, if that makes sense. Audio is neutral, not completely useless but also not great, it makes due. get a soundbar or other ext speakers.

    This TV is great. Picture is perfect. Setup with the wifi was cake. Setup with the tablet was cake. Couldnt ask for more. Why pay thousands for another big brand. I love it.
