Customer Reviews
- Awesome TV Review by SmokinStroker
-
Finally talked my wife into kicking the 8yr old Sony to the curb. This TV is awesome. The 3D is way better than I expected. I'd go as far as to say it is better than in the theater. Best of all, the glasses are inexpensive and the theater glasses work too. My only wish would be that it have a variable analog audio output so that I could adjust the volume thru the SRS system using the TV remote. Upgrading to newer equipment meant new cableing( 1 optical and 2 HDMI cable) but well worth it.

- Awesome t.v., especially for the price! Review by Kidrock
-
This t.v. has a really great picture and the Vizio 3-D technology is really state of the art! The only complaint I have is that the instruction manual is not as thorough as it could be. I would like to see a manual with detailed descriptions of all the settings and options, when I tried to look it up the online manual on the website listed, I spent hours going in circles and still was never able to download it. Other than that, this is the best 3-D t.v. on the market today for the price!

- Love it Review by Crissy

This Vizio HDTV is great. My family is enjoying the 3D as well as the WI-FI and internet apps it offers. First Vizio purchase then purchased the Vizio 3D WI-FI blue ray player. I love the Razor sharp LED as well. A very satisfied customer.

- Great 3D TV for the price Review by Chuck
-
Really a great picture on this TV, and the 3D is very impressive, also. I wish the remote was lighted and larger, easier to use with big fingers. The sound could be better, i have an add on sound system and I think most people will want this also.
If you have more than one older device to connect to this TV you may have a problem since there is only one set of the old fashioned jacks. Most new devices use HDMI cables, and there are 4 HDMI ports on this set. I've had to attach my Wi to another set since it doesn't have an HDMI port and I've already used the one set of jack ports.
Better picture than I've seen on many more expensive sets, very easy to connect to your wireless modem.(Posted on 10/25/12)
- So far, so good Review by Gini
-
Just installed and so far love it. So many features. Great picture and easy to use and set up. For the price paid, if your interested in a high quality 3D set, you can't go wrong. Hope it last for many years.

- LOVE IT!!! Review by sleepyhead

Bought this in June of this year. I can't keep my kids off it. They love watching 3D movies.
It was very easy to mount on the wall. I just can't say enough about it. It's been a great investment!(Posted on 8/11/12)
- Love it Review by Dave

Setup was nice and easy. Picture is sharp and clear. Only issue was the remote. It had something loose inside of it. Vizio took care of it right away. Can't wait for football season.
