- Awesome internet TV Review by Ole

This model is awesome for size and price. We live on a busy road and are using this unit in the bedroom which is next to busy road which is load. We can set the sound level to 22 it blocks out road noise and still sounds great. The wireless setup works perfectly with netflixs with our wireless N router, works as good as CATV. Good instructions easy to setup. We bought at Costco where you can't go wrong.

- Great deal Review by Rutrag

I bought this set to upgrade from a Vizio VP322 (32" 720p plasma). I paid $539 for the unit including tax due to an instant rebate. I had no probelm hooking up an XBox 360, blu-ray player, and cable box using the HDMI ports. That picture was great. However, I hooked up a Wii through the component jacks, and the picture was awful. The white was excruciatingly bright and the text on the Wii's home screen was illegible. (This was on a Saturday.) Fortunately, once in game the picture was okay. The following Wednesday, I decided to use the optical out from the TV to see if I could streamline the audio hookups going into my receiver. While double checking that everythign still worked as expected, i was delighted to discover that the Wii homescreen looked as it should. I guess either Vizio or Nintendo (or both) updated their firmware to solve an apparent incompatibility issue. (The Wii looked fine on the older Vizio.) Using the online apps at first is a little clunky, and I actually found my univesal remore to general be more functional than the supplied Vizio remote EXCEPT when it comes to the online apps. I haven't gotten the chance to really play on the Xbox with it yet, but the demo screens for Halo 3 look awesome! Blu-ray and HD cable look good as well.

- Love this HD TV with built in wifi and netflix app Review by Surya
-
Just purchased this from costco for $499. A full HD tv for this price? That's right, aswesome price. I can connect to my home WIFI and use Internet Apps that comes with it to watch streaming video from netflix. I can connect using ethernet cable as welll. Haven't tried other applications like radio, e-mail and live TVs. But, this is what I really wanted for a long time. With 4 HDMI inputs, I can connect my HP entertainment PC, blue-ray and other devices at the same time. Audio is very good but can be extended to dolby using external speakers.
Time to say bye bye to cable TV. I can subscribe to Netflix for $7.99 a month, a lot better than $50 for cable TV.
I wish the ambient light sensor was little more sensitive. It does not respond when I turn the lights on in my living room. The remote control is too smooth and has a tendency of falling off your hand. I also wish the TV could respond faster when I change the channel or press a button on the remote.(Posted on 1/11/11)
- Great TV! Review by Mase2w

Just got it at costco this weekend (at the store) not online. This TV is sweet! It has the Vizio Yahoo Internet apps, which are ok, I wish there were more options and I wish it had Pandora. At the store, there was hardly any difference between the E421VA and this one (as far as viewing goes). The E421VA has a 120Hz refresh rate, and this one only has 60Hz, but it still has an excellent picture. The sound is actually pretty good, too! One of the best features is the Wifi and the 4 hdmi ports with the ethernet port and usb ports. Overall, it is a great buy and got it at Costco for $500 with a $80 instant discount.

This is my second Vizio Flat Screen HDTV. Absolutely love it. Bought them both from Costco. My last one was purchased 1/8/11 and got it at a great price from Costco. Simple to use & would recommend to everyone. You won't regret it.
