VIZIO 43 Inch 4K Smart TV V-Series UHD HDR Television with Apple AirPlay and Chromecast Built-in

I bought this tv for one reason.... Playstation 5! I didn't want to spend $1200 for a game tv but I wanted to be ready for the 4k capability of the ps5. All I had was a 5 year old HD 43" for my ps4. Its mounted on my wall next to my beautiful 55 inch Samsung that is used for streaming movies. This is for gaming only and is off to the side of the main tv but right in front of my recliner. I know it's not the highest picture rating for movies but that's not its purpose. What it does have is a great color range...4k display...pro gaming engine that makes input lag superior and lower than most other high end tvs. It's only 60hz refresh rate (limits you to 60 fps) but the PS5 sweet spot for the first few years will be 4k 60 fps anyway. Most games that will have the 120 fps will make you drop the resolution down to 1080p. I will always choose 4k with 60 fps. I just set it up and it even makes my ps4 games pop! Can't hardly wait for my ps5 pre order to arrive in a few weeks... but I'm ready! Game on! It even has hdmi 2.1!

Game mode causes a black screen freeze, which has a quick fix (Unplug, and plug back in to get rid of infinite black screen.), and if you disable Apple Airplay, it causes remote input lag. But other than the issues, the pros are, picture and sound is great and even if there is no App Store, they have almost all of the popular apps. Read more

Beautiful image quality. Works great with my Apple TV and Xbox One S. It has a really intuitive interface with *SOME* lag but if you’re using a multimedia box like a Fire TV Stick, Roku box, or Apple TV, it shouldn’t be too much of an issue. Great value for the price. Read more

Good smartTV with a decent price, but vizio tvs are kinda buggy. Had a couple issues with my Vizio sound bar that stopped working until I unplugged the TV and sound bar and reconnected everything. Also had an Issue connecting a Ps5 to HDMI-1 (the HDR port) where the screen would keep going black after a couple minutes until I went into the setting (>Picture>Advanced Picture>Gaming Engine) and turned "Game HDR" on. Another issue I've noticed is when running a speed test through the network settings it will only go up to about 15-16 Mbps, but averages around 10 Mbps. Samsung smartTVs for example will cap at around 60-80 Mbps from what I've seen, Roku is usually 30-60. That being said I've never had an issue with Netflix, Prime, or any other app, but there's clearly a limitation with either the network card or the processor that is causing such a low speed cap so keep that in mind.

This was so bad that I actually returned it after only a couple of days of use, and then bought a TCL Roku 4k TV (at about $20 cheaper) to replace it, which was an easy decision when I compared this pile of trash to the TCL I already had (in my living room, this one was for my office/man cave). Here are all the ways that this purchase was a fail for me: - Sound isn't soft, it's totally busted and not-usuable for my XBox One without a soundbar -- literally everything sounded like digitized static and was ready to blow. I like connecting speakers anyway, but this was unusuable - Software is horrible, crashed TWICE during my initial setup, which was a red flag, and generally takes a long time to switch inputs, go to menu, or do anything on the menu. UI is really unintuitive too - If a device turns on, it switches to that input, which is cool, buuuuuut sometimes this happens when I don't want it to -- for example my cat brushes his tail against the XBox One while I'm playing Switch and suddenly Mario falls down a hole because I need to find the remote to switch back. There's probably a way to change this, but good luck finding it with these confusing menu options (which aren't even available from the homescreen btw) - You can't download apps like on a Roku or Fire based Smart TV, you are limited to what has a Vizio app, so no HBO Max for you! Plus, clearly app developers are going to focus on this less, so the apps aren't going to be as good - Could not get or stay connected via Apple Airplay or Chromecast. I had zero problems with the same devices on the same network with my TCL after I replaced it. I updated software, I did hard resets, and nothing made this work consistently. Weirdest of all was when I tried streaming a preseason MLB.TV game that I actually successfully got on the TV from my iPhone -- it was running fine, but then as soon as I started casting it to the TV it slowed down and buffered for MINUTES. I'd say maybe this was the MLB app, but again, zero problems with this exact case on my TCL Roku 4K TV I'll admit, I *LOVE* my older Vizio 1080p TV, so I was really excited to see what they've done in the last few years to stay ahead of the curve, but I'm really disappointed here and TCL is now my go-to in this price class (although I'd be open to try some of the Fire TVs by Insignia or Hisense) and I'm not sure I'll ever buy a Vizio TV again.

So I had finally upgraded from my old TV, I honestly don't even remember when I got it. Decided to buy this TV mainly because I had bought a PS5, and overall it does what it needs to do in terms of quality. Picture is nice, sound is great, love it when using my gaming consoles. The TV apps that it has is great, although there are some that isn't available (like Britbox) and my capture card (for streaming) doesn't work. But those are minuscule things to worry about and doesn't affect my rating on the TV itself. Read more

Its a beautiful smart TV, got it for cheap on black friday.
