This TV is a BEAST!!! Review by shortyduwaaap

1st of all, this tv is pretty amazing. The things u look 4 in a tv are size, pic quality, connectivity and price.

Size: I had a 32" Philips which was a decent size... This 1 looks way bigger than that 1.

Pic Quality: It's 1080p, so u can't get any better than that. It's 240Hz which makes quality noticeably better. This might b the tv's best quality. The picture is so smooth that it makes 60Hz and 120Hz look laughable. Also IT HAS 3D!!! I've played a 3D game, a couple 3d movies on U-Verse and they looked pretty good. No expensive glasses needed and it was just like it was in the theater.

Connectivity: It has a bunch of hdmi ports (for TV, games, and 3d blu ray), a rgb port 4 my comp. So I can do it all with this tv.

Price: It retails 4 $1,000 which is a GREAT price 4 all it does. I got it 4 $600 thx 2 Black Friday and Sam's Club. You can't beat that.

5 stars, my best investment of 2011. I LOVE THIS TV!

Get it all on this TV! Review by Rypakz

This item was a black friday deal and eventually we were looking for a TV which it has it all. I'm talking about LED, Cinema 3D, 240hertz which makes HD movies super smooth, Wifi enabled, Affordable, So thin and Elegant. Well, you can find it on this TV! We chose a 42" since we're living in a small apartment and this really satisfies me a lot. We saved as much as 400 because of the black friday sale but i would still recommend this item for those who are looking for the best TV experience. 5 Stars!

Great Box Review by chuck0929

I got my Vizio a couple of weeks ago and am very impressed with it. I was surprised to find out that I can listen with my Sony blue tooth headset so as not to disturb the grand kids. I seems to work great and has a super 3-d picture. Love it.....
