    I did a lot of research before buying this TV. More than one online review confirm that this has one of the best pictures on the market. It was super easy to set up and the picture is incredible. The extra remote control is a lot of fun to play with too!

    This TV has an incredible picture quality, on everything. The 4k movies are as good as I've ever seen. The Samsung tablet remote is cool, but the cast to TV feature is crazy cool. You have to experience all the new stuff to believe it. Nothing like it on the market..it's an amazing piece of electronics.

    This is a replacement for a 1 1/2 year old LG 49" 4k . I went to the store to look at a set with 4k AND HDR and fell in love. Picture (after minor tweaking) is astounding . Since I am primarily a streamer and don't watch network TV, the lack of a built in tuner is not an issue I also use the set as a computer monitor and in my living environment a 50" screen is perfect.

    The "P" Series received so many great reviews and seemed like the perfect fit for folks like us (among the last to pitch our crt sets)! We love everything about this television & use it mainly with a Roku media streamer. I know flat screen sets are said to have crummy sound, but we are happy enough with the sound that we may not look into exterior speakers.

    This TV has a great picture with movies and games alike. The black color is a true black, and all of the other colors really pop out. The frame is a silver aluminum design which looks great with any decor. However, make sure you enable the best picture in the settings of the TV. You'll find the settings on the tablet remote Vizio App.

    So I went to the outlet store on LBJ and Midway in Dallas yesterday. I was explained that once I buy the tv it's mine (all sales final), which I understood and that before I took it home they would take it out of the box and see what it's missing and test it to make sure it worked. It turned on and started playing a movie - great. The Best Buy employee loaded the tv in my car and I drove home. As soon as I got home I set the tv up and started plugging in my devices. It turned on and the Xbox loading screen appeared. I downloaded the smart cast app on my phone since the tv was missing the remote and started to set it up. AS SOON as I started the set up process the tv completely froze. Couldn't change the input, the volume and couldn't turn it off. I figured out I could long press the power button and it would turn off. Only to go into a boot loop. I would try and set up the pairing to the app and I would hear confirmation from the tv that my phone was connected and could visually see on my phone that two were connected, but again - the tv would freeze up. I wrestled with it for an hour while on the phone with Vizio and now I have these 2 options 1 hour after buying the tv 1) have Vizio send someone to come fix the tv for no more than $335 OR 2) Vizio can offer me another tv at a discounted price. So now I'll have to buy another tv on top of the tv I just bought which will be going in the trash.

    Got this TV in a open Box I was afraid stuff would be missing, but Everything was in there. Pretty good Quality for this Type of TV. I would Defiantly recommend Visio if you looking for a Decent TV that wont break your bank. The Tablet works amazing to do Screen Cast, plus your can install any Android app on it.

    BEST HDR DISPLAY UNDER $800

    When I got this display, other HDR 10 and DolbyVision HDR displays were too expensive or were OLED based out of my price range. As this is only 50" and in a space I can control the light spill this is by far the best display for my consumer needs.

    I like most things about this TV except the brightness which is hard to adjust. Sometimes it just looks a bit washed out bright.
