VIZIO 32-inch Full HD 1080p Smart TV with DTS Virtual X Alexa Compatibility Google Cast Built-in Bluetooth Headphone

I just received my new Vizio 40" Full HD Smart TV, and I’m very impressed. The picture quality is excellent — bright, clear, and sharp with vibrant colors. Setup was quick and easy, and I was especially surprised by how strong the Wi-Fi reach is. It picks up my network better than my previous TVs and streams smoothly without buffering. All of the smart features work exactly as advertised, and it truly seems to deliver everything the manufacturer claims. Overall, this TV is a great value and performs exceptionally well. I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it. Read more

Well, Vizio pulled a fast one on me. Last week I started receiving messages whenever I turned on my 9 year old 32" Vizio, that Netflix and other apps would no longer be supported. This means only satellite TV or old fashioned antennas would result in a picture. Since I cut the cable 2 years ago, this meant the perfectly working TV would be useless to me. I gave it to a friend who wanted it as a computer monitor. Because I have another Vizio and it gives me good sound and good picture for a reasonable price I decided to order this one. Set up was very simple. Adding streaming apps was fast and there are a LOT to chose from; both free and subscription. When I tuned it to a program, I thought the sound was kind of muffled and hard to hear without increasing the volume pretty high. So I went into the settings and under Audio there are 3 options for sound quality. Factory set up was the worst (muffled) option. I chose the option that produced clear, sharp annunciation without having high volume. Because of this, it's the best sound quality of any of my 3 current TVs. Picture is great and almost no lag time when changing programs or channels. I had no trouble with inserting the feet - screws and holes lined up perfectly. I am once again very happy with my Vizio TV. As each older TV bites the dust, each will be replaced with a Vizio. Read more

The picture quality on this VIZIO 40" 1080p TV is really good, especially for the price. But the TV freezes several times a day (3–4x daily for me), and the volume occasionally gets stuck. It’s frustrating because the display looks great, but the reliability isn’t there. Read more

Bought this TV to replace an older (as in a tube) TV in the bedroom. Didn't want to spend much money as this is used more to catch up with the news and such, not for high-end viewing experiences. The setup was really easy even for someone who is not completely technologically inept but not a tech-nerd either. Had to create a Vizio account which was a bit meh but you can't really get anything these days without an account. Have noticed some buffering on a couple of occasions. Not enough to be a major annoyance and I think it has more to do with our Wi-Fi connection than anything else. The sound quality leaves something to be desired as there are times when voices are a bit garbled and then suddenly get better. The picture quality is fine for my eyes. For the price I paid, this is a perfectly acceptable TV. My son has had a Vizio 7 years now and it has worked great, so I wasn't too hesitant to get one as well. Read more

I saw several complaints about the sound quality, and "You'll need a soundbar or some kind of external speaker(s)", but that wasn't the case at all. The sound quality on this TV actually isn't bad at all. That was the only thing holding me back from purchasing it, so I didn't have very high hopes going in. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised. Not that it sounds right up there with the best or anything like that, because it doesn't and it isn't, but the average user shouldn't have any problem with the sound quality straight out of the box. The picture quality is equally as surprising. It's a 1080p TV, so don't expect mind blowing clarity, but for what it is and what it costs, it's really nice, and with all kinds of settings that I've never heard of. I actually did very little in the way of setting this thing up. I remember reading somewhere just a few days ago that Vizio TVs are factory preset to the taste of individual countries that they ship them to, and after reading that, it made sense to me why there was very little adjustment necessary. LOL I think I spent more time getting it out of the box than I did making adjustments. Setup was a breeze. It found my Wi-Fi immediately, I put my password in to get it connected, and inside of a few seconds, it was ready to go... or so I thought Naturally, the first thing it wanted to do was install a bunch of updates. Doesn't everything anymore? After downloading, installing, restarting, installing, restarting, installing, restarting, I was finally ready to do a channel scan. Yeah, I got cable TV out of my life over 20 years ago, and I haven't missed it one bit. The scan took three to four minutes and brought up like 48 channels. I'm still working on this input called Watch Free, and as near as I can tell, it's kind of a mix with your station presets and other select material probably based on those stations. In the 3+ weeks since delivery, I haven't experienced one flaw, lockup, random restart, random power down, glitch or hiccup out of it. There are a few little things about it that I'm not too thrilled about, namely the complete lack of RCA inputs, only two HDMI inputs, and when inputting channels on OTA TV using the number pad, it brings up an on-screen numberpad, but instead of intuitively hitting the center button, you have to use the arrow down to navigate to an area at the bottom of the on-screen keypad, and when you get to the correct tab, THEN hit the center button. Next, arguably the most used controls on the remote, the channel and volume keys... Why do they all now place those keys so low on the remote? Those keys are way down near the bottom to the point that you don't really have any room to hold onto the remote. The remote is also narrow, thin, short, and VERY slippery. Overall, I guess it's ok, but a universal remote is probably in my near future. As the title says, keep your expectations reasonable, and you shouldn't be disappointed. If you want a TV that performs like a $1000+ set, then go spend $1000 on a set, and you'll be just fine. As far as its current price tag of $138 is concerned, you're getting a LOT of TV for your money. EDIT: At almost two months in, I've been able to integrate it into my entertainment needs without much of any learning curve, and I'm still happy with my purchase. Read more

I bought this TV for my home gym, for music and workout videos. I needed something with Bluetooth so I could stream to the workout room stereo system, and it works perfectly. The picture is beautiful for a lower resolution 40 inch screen. Another feature i just love is the ability to have the USB ports turn off with the TV because I use all Govee RGBIC lighting and didn't want to keep unplugging it. The WiFi works flawlessly and stays connected. My ONLY complaint is that the power cord is not removable. Since this TV is mounted high on the wall I wanted a 15 foot power cord for the Vizio M series TV's but I can't use it on this M series, so now I have an extension cord end about 3 feet up the wall. I do not watch actual television so I can't chime in on all the built in channels, but for my needs it's perfect. Read more
