Wow! Just, WOW!
Backstory: Husband and I decided it was time to get a new TV that could output a better resolution and give me an overall more enjoyable gaming experience for a top of the line computer he bought me for a previous birthday. We checked different "Monitors" or TV's for different specs and resolution capabilities. We were EXTREMELY surprised to find a TV that could give off an amazing resolution (4K) that had multiple settings, wifi connections, 5 HDMI ports, and more, for being priced relatively cheap when compared to other similarly spec'd products. Unboxing/Delivery: We do have amazon prime, and we do get prime shipping, so we expected it to get to out house within 2-3 days. We were pleasantly surprised to find the TV on our porch the very next night while taking out the trash, Amazon hadn't even texted me that it was delivered yet! I expected the TV to be extremely heavy (the samsung 40 inch TV we have in the living room was extremely heavy), and was really happy to find that the TV, box and all, weighed just a couple of pounds and could easily be lifted with one hand! (I have no upper body strength, so this is a wonderful thing for me!) Unpacking the TV was a little awkward because of the way it's positioned within the box, and the bag of screws/stand stuff wasn't taped to the TV like every other TV we've ordered before, so that was slightly obnoxious, because we had dropped it on our floor and our dog ran off with it, the silly Saint Bernard! ;) The two stands popped right into the bottom of the TV with ease, and the screws and- after finding a flathead screwdriver because we apparently lost our phillips- were easily screwed on to make the stand secure. Usage: I immediately sat down to begin using the "monitor" for our computer gaming session that we had planned for the evening together, only to be extremely disappointed with the twitchiness/screen tearing and genuine lag with the movement of the mouse and the game itself. After realizing it wasn't my computer and checking the settings of the TV via the beautiful remote that the television came with, we found out that running a 4k resolution gave the TV a refresh rate of 30HZ instead of the 60HZ that we expected. My biggest complaint about this television is that we had to google it (mostly because I was pigheaded and did not want to return such a pretty television) to find out that only the HDMI 5 slot, is able to output a 60HZ refresh rate for the 4k resolution. If you want to have multiple gaming consoles, computers, or other hardware connected to this TV, then you will need to pick just one to have a decent refresh rate. Quick TL;DR Review: For us-- because I only use it as a computer monitor, this was an amazing price, for an amazing product. I would recommend this as a main television for any family, or as a wonderful computer monitor for the holidays. Extremely happy with Vizio, Amazon, and everything surrounding this product. #PleasantlySurprised Read more
