Positive - great picture - buy the warrantee replacement Review by getuclu

Great tv and lasted for 1yr 2mos. Glad I bought the warrantee. I like it enough that I am getting a Vizio replacement for 1 more try. I have a Samsung that I have had for 3 years and wanted a better picture, which the Vizio delivers. I am hoping I get more than a couple years out of the replacement.. We'll see.

Great TV Review by Rohit

This is a great TV I use it for video games, cable tv and as a monitor for my computer I haven't had any problems for the past 2 1/2 years and I know I won't have one soon.

The VIZIO SV320XVT Review by playtime

I had purchased a Samsung 42" for our living room and found it to be confusing to use at times. It was the top of the line model 1 year ago so I felt I had a great TV comparing it to other high end brand. I also purchased the matching sound bar with the DVD player with speakers to go with it but soon found the DVD player acting up. The sound was fantastic to say the least. I returned the sound bar to Costco's at that time I decided to replace the Samsung sound bar with one without the built in DVD player hoping to end any future problems. I then purchased a Samsung DVD blueray player only to gain another remote that just made this setup all the more confusing. I also decided after looking at the quaility of the Vizio sound bar finding it in my opinion to be much better made then the Samsung bar. Sure enough once it was hooked up it blew the returned Samsung sound bar away with its fantastic sound. Now this is what convinced me my next TV or Monitor was going to be a VIZIO so 3 months later I returned to Costco's and purchased the Vizio tv above. I now wish I had from the beginning purchased the VIzio products because of the ease of use - much better picture - color - contrast you name it this tv puts my Samsung to the curb. Its fantastic to my pc monitor also and with the pic and pic I can watch tv and use my pc at the same time although I hardly ever do. I have tried to change the factory settings to something better to my taste but I have found to just click on return picture settings to default is right on for me whether on my pc or watching tv. I would recommend not only this tv but any VIZIO products - by the way my Samsung DVD player decided after only running about 20 movies through it to keep my cd. If you guessed I returned it and traded it in for a VIZIO DVD player you guessed it right and I received roughly 30 dollars back for a better DVD player made my VIZIO. The higher priced or rated products are not always the best and I should have known this at my age. I might give my 42 inch Samsung to my grandest son and purchase a larger VIZIO tv "have you seen the pictures on even the larger ones they sink most other brands down under. Purchase a high quaility VIZO at a discounted price regardless of the product. Just my opinion from my experience. Cheers.........

Awesome TV! Review by Scorch

Got this to take to college in a few weeks, and I've definitely been liking what I see so far. Great picture overall. I can tell a huge difference between my older 60Hz panel and this 120Hz one as far as smoothness. I will admit I'm not a huge fan of the wheel selector knob on the side, especially since it's literally the only way to control the thing on the panel itself, but it's not that big of an issue since I do 95% of that with the remote anyway. Speaking of which, I like the remote. The buttons are very clicky.

Overall this is an excellent LCD panel that I would definitely recommend. Looking forward to enjoying it in college!

Um....AWESOME Review by mapleleafs89

I was glad to see these available in Canada, never heard a lot about them but I saw them at Tiger Direct and went and did some research, it seemed like a pretty decent brand with good prices. Much better than any of those low budget tv brands out there. 120hz is amazing, never will I go with anything lower again. Good range of inputs, the remote is awesome, thought it would be mediocre so I bought one at the same time but ended up taking it back in favour of the vizio remote. Great picture, smooth motion feature is pretty nice, makes television look much more realistic. Picture in picture is awesome with customizable size, I play NHL 10 on my xbox and have the hockey game on in the right corner at the same time; simply awesome. The sound is better than I expected it to be, comparable to my sony. The style of the TV is beautiful, very slim and glossy finish looks very. I dont know how popular these are in the States but by the looks of it they are becoming more popular by the day here in Canada. I will be buying vizio again.

My first HDTV and I am very happy Review by kt1ao

I bought the TV from Dell online in December and since I've had it I can only say that I've been very happy. I do wish I got the 37" since Dell was running a discount of about 150 dollars but overall I'm amazed of the quality. Also the selling point that interested me were all the inputs. I pretty much can hook up anything to this and be happy. My roommate has an old Gamecube and a VCR, I have my xbox and my blue-ray player, and our Macs that we have hooked up to watch videos online on the TV. Everything is hooked up and we don't have to swap cables. Very nice. Most HDTVs only have HDMI and component but no s-video or what not. So besides the quality the choices of inputs and vizio's reputation had me sold.

Love this television and as my first HDTV I'm going to be a loyal customer to this brand.

Love my SV320XVT Review by Kayaker

I researched the TV. I have had this TV for about 4 months, and I love it. Great sound, picture, and functions. The 3 HDMI ports are in use with my DirecTV, DVD player, and a desktop. I can watch tv, and also check on the computer by clicking to the HDMI port , where the computer is also running in the background. I sometimes adjust the settings for Movies, but it is great most of the time, with the last way I had it adjusted. I would recommend it to everyone. Sam's Club had a great price.

70th b'day gift. Review by mystie

I purchased this TV for my ex husband as his 70th b'day gift. I also own the 55" Vizio (plasma) and was always pleased with how it performs for me. But, I have to tell you that when i set this up , I was blown away by the sharpness of the picture quality. I could even tell what backgrounds on various TV shows were painted or photographed ! It was like i was watching a play on his TV. Now I am seriously thinking of replacing my Sceptre 32" bedroom lcd TV with this one and relegate the Sceptre to pc monitor status.
Great set excellent price!

New 2 Vizio Review by Suprfry

This is the very first Vizio I purchased. Normally I'm a hardcore fully loyal Sony customer. However, when I was shopping around to replace the tv in my bedroom, no one seemed to have any Son'ys available! I do believe the excuse was that Sony was getting ready to launch the newer updated tv's/products. Well, I purchased this tv because not only was it the size I was looking for, the price was reasonable and it included the USB port for listening to music, viewing pictures and/or videos. I have to say that I really really LOVE this tv! It's actually so slim I can set it on my bedroom window sill! This tv has great picture quality and my Blu-ray movies look awesome! I couldn't be happier! I highly recommend this tv if you are in the market for a 32" tv. Another feature of this tv that I'm very impressed with is the option to connect red and white RCA cables for audio out. That came in very handy when connecting my older amp to the tv so I could get more volume when playing my music via the USB port. Thank you Vizio, you have one great tv!

WOW!! Review by Wayne

Previewed many, many HDTV's in all electronics and found Vizio to be the best at a great price at BJ's. Picture is unlike any sets I've had before; Bright, clear...amazing!
Only drawback is adjusting sound quality. Sounded "tinny" at first, but, was able to adjust to suit my taste.

Great TV - Excellent Picture Quality Review by Matt In ILM

I bought this TV when my 14 y.o. RCA CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) died. I'd been looking at sets f/a while; knowing that I wanted to upgrade to a flat panel/LCD. I did a fair amount of checking w/all vendors & bought my new set (Model: SV320XVT) @ Costco.
I got a great price on a great TV. It is everything I'd hoped it would be. & I even get advanced/enhanced (more) channels f/my cable provider.

I was so impressed w/this set, I went back & bought a 26" Visio (Model # VA26L-HDTV10T) to replace my old/back-up set. That set went on the other side of the house.
Both deliver excellent picture quality @ a very reasonable price.

Way too early to discuss longevity/dependability but I'm happy w/my two purchases. Do your research because, TV sets, like all things electronic, are still evolving. They are lighter (in weight), bigger (in size), deliver better picture quality & use less electricity.

I looked @ both of these purchases as 8 - 10 year investments. If you think like I do, you'll probably want to buy reasonably new technology now. No one wants to replace their TV every few years (like I do w/my computers).

& both sets can be used as computer monitors; that is cool.
Big TV has USB port and the ability to view 'other' media; not sure why that wasn't included in the smaller one. But that is a minor sticking point.........

Very Impressed Review by Justin

I bought this SV320XVT at my local Sam's Club. We were replcing an older 27" tv that was not our primary tv in the house. I have two other Vizio's that we use regulary and have been happy so I thought I would give this one a try, I could not be more happier. We have a 60" Sony HDTV as our main tv but the picture quality on this new tv is far superior to our Sony. I wish I would have known about Vizio's quality before purchasing my Sony. You will not be dissapointed with a Vizio!!!

Great TV! Review by Andy

Awesome Review by Bobbie

Bought this TV yesterday at Costco for my 12 y/o son for his room. He had had a sony 20" and to play the games on X-Box the screen was way to small to see. After reading the rest of the reviews, I dont know what else to say except I never expected a 32" basically unknown name mfg.'s TV to have such a wonderful, crisp, clear picture & sound. My son has his surround hooked up and when he plays his games, when they shoot at each other (in the game that is) it sounds as if its real.

I am SUPER happy with this TV and will probably buy another one at some point when my 55" TV in the living room dies. I would love to get something like a 60-65" to mount on the wall, so this is giving Vizio the chance to make that size.

Thank you Vizio, you have blown me away with your product.

Best Bang for your buck Review by MSLady

Totally impressed by the value and picture sharpness of the Vizio. I have purchased Sony /Phillips products in the past and this by far is the best bang for your bucks. My family and I enjoy it! Thanks Wally and Visio.

2nd Vizio product Review by Wawa

Own a 37 inch Vizio and am extremely happy with it, however I chose to purchase a smaller version for the bedroom and the price at Costco vs Vizio was unbelievable. Needless to say I purchased this 32 inch slimline at Costco and could not be happier. Fantastic picture. Only regret can not program the Vizio remote with Direct Tv.

Fantastic picture Review by stan the man

I just purchased this tv for my bedroom through Costco online. I got a great price, about $150 less than anything I could find with similar features at Best Buy, Walmart etc. But the best thing about it is the picture quality-it is truly amazing! We have a cable hook-up and it doesn't require a cable box to get HD. My wife just mentioned last night that it's almost like watching a different show compared to our 48 inch hd set(which also has a great picture). I have a 29 yr old son who is looking for something this size and I'm going to strongly recommend he purchase a Vizio.

Do not hesitate to buy this TV! Review by Mike

This TV is of excellent quality. The picture is just absolutely crystal clear and I couldn't be happier with it. It is my first Vizio product but I'm sure it will not be the last. I have never experienced better clarity on any TV of any size or make. I actually bought it to replace my 26 inch monitor for my computer. It also does an excellent job as a computer monitor. I have my cable box in HDMI 1, my computer in HDMI 2 and my Blu-ray disc player in HDMI 3 and this TV delivers an awesome display from either of these three sources. I bought the 3 year warranty just for the simple fact that this is my first Vizio product but I don't anticipate ever having to use it. I really can't say enough about this TV. It's appearance is very sharp. It just has a smart look to it. 1080p combined with 120Hz make this TV more than capable of handling the most intense action scenes without missing a beat. The back-lit "Vizio" insignia also adds a touch of class to the superb look and performance of this quality TV.

Tech Review of SV320XVT Review by Chet

Review of: VIZIO SV3200XVT, Size: 32" Resolution: 1920 x 1080 Refresh Rate: 120Hz. Background of reviewer: This is the 1st VIZIO I have ever purchased (I am a techie). I usually purchase high end Sony’s so I thus I am comparing this review on what I have had previous and about 30 other sets I have seen recently at various stores. The set was purchased at a national discount store at about 1/2 the cost I have puchased other sets at.

Color Accuracy: clear, accurate and sharp. Blacks could be a little deeper when compared to a standard tube set, for a LCD it is impressive.
Smooth Motion feature – no distortion or jaggedness found while viewing high speed images.

Viewable Angle (HXV): 178° x 178 - no problem viewing at angles described.

Tuner: ATSC/Clear QAM tuner – auto detected all television stations even some not on cable box.

Sound Level and Speakers: Built-in 10W x 2 Speakers – no distortion even at high level, sound level is more than enough than needed. Tested while walking on a treadmill at a distance of 10’ and had no problems.
SRS TruVolume™ - eliminates sound from rising during commercials – works excellent!

Zero Bright Pixel Defect Guarantee – VIZIO replaces tube on one dead or bad pixel most companies make you have several clustered dead or bad pixels.

Inputs: HDMI with HDCP x3 (rear), RF Connector for Internal Tuner x1 (rear), Component YPbPr plus Stereo Audio x1 (rear), S-Video x1 (rear), Computer RGB x1 (rear), Composite Video x1 (rear), USB Port x1 (side) – would have liked to see one more RF input.

Remote: Has many options but takes getting used to, very light weight.
Initial Setup: Plugged it in and scanned channels works perfectly!

Overall Impression: Excellent value! I would rate this television 9.5 out of 10 even when compared to the other high end sets I have owned or recently seen. The only reason I did not give it a 10 was I would have liked to see two rf inputs and the picture have a little deeper blacks though this is a problem of the current LCD technology we can purchase on the market today rather than the company.

Customer Support: I contacted the company on several technical questions before and after purchase their representatives were friendly, truthful and very knowledgeable

The Old Lady Said I Would Like It! Review by The Ferris

The old Lady I am referring to is not my wife in this case... It's the Old Lady outside of Sams Club that felt the urge to tell me that I had just bought a great TV. I was a little skeptical because I had just returned a VIZIO due to the quality of the picture and that sound and here I am paying more for the same brand. I got home, set it up, and held my breath when I pushed the power button.

I was not prepared for how much I was blown away by the XVT VIZIO! The picture was so crisp and the sound was very surprising for the built in speakers. Let me put it this way, we have a $15 cheap DVD player but watching movies with this TV feel more like we are looking through a window and watching the actors as they are filming the movie. It creates such a realism with whatever you are watching that I have to get used to it. Bravo, VIZIO!

Great Value Review by captmovie

Bought this SV320XVT Vizio TV from Sams Club at a fantastic price. Always owned Sony TV's before getting this Vizio. A breeze to setup and image quality is excellent. I was pleasantly surprised how well PIP works. Netflix HD movies streamed to the PS3 look pretty darn good. Vizio has won my future business. Thanks Vizio!

Extremely good deal on Pictue and Sound quality Review by Sandman015

Don't know what more to say from other positive reviews that i've read except for the fact that I love the 120hz smooth motion this TV gives and an extremely low price of $449.99 at Costco. Can't beat that! I have it in my bedroom, and makes you feel apart of the Movies. Highly suggest a blu-ray player with this tv. Even dvds look great on this set!

The only Knock I have on it is that the once i got this set, the cheap batteries it came with slightly melted my remote from over heating within 5 minutes. I have never seen that happen before. Thought they were installed backwards but when i tried it again, it heated up again. I'm lucky I caught it early enough it didn't start a fire or something. But a new pair of batteries fixed that problem

All Other Reviews Posted Here Are True Review by Jace

I've had my Vizio XVT for over a month now and I can attest to all of the postive comments posted. I bought the Vizio to replace a TV in the bedroom and am always amazed on the clarity and quality of the picture. An added plus is the audio. If you need a 32 inch, this is a great buy for the money.

Best tv for the money, couldn't find any thing better even in a bigger tv Review by Jeffrey

I Just bought this tv from sams club at an amazing price of 479.99. I couldn't find a better 32" 1080p 120hz tv any where. I was always a sony guy but I think I'm goning to be buying more vizio tv's from now on you can't get a better picture for any price. I love the picture quality on my satalite and dvd the hdmi connection made a big difference. I can't wait to buy a blue ray player or a ps3.

Will Never Buy Anything Else Review by Sue

I love this TV. I have a 47 inch in my living room I purchased 2 years ago. I will never buy any other type of TV. The picture and sound are great. When I brought it home I set it up next to the 47 inch TV before moving to the bedroom. The picture is a little sharper then the 47 inch, but both are incredible. We had the Patriots/Ravens game on both TVs, there is no other way to watch sports then HD. I would recommend Vizio to anyone looking for a TV.

A Stunning TV and Value Review by John

After doing much research and reading many reviews, I decided on Vizio and selected this model for a Christmas present for my wife, to replace the standard TV in our bedroom. It was easy to set up and connect to my new DirecTV DVR and Panasonic BlueRay player. I cannot believe how clear and sharp the picture is. The blacks are actually black, not a shade of green like some other brands I viewed. I also hooked up my local cable company and the in-set tuner works great. The documentation, procedures and on-screen prompts for the initial set-up and customizations is well thought out.

We already have several TV's in our homes, including a 70" rear projection and a 42" plasma. The Vizio has the best picture of them all.

Other than saying to the reader, BUY THIS TV, I have only one suggestion. Stock up on snack food. Once you install this TV, your neighbors will want to come over and you will never get rid of them until they purchase one of these TV's for themselves.

I obtained a great price directly from Vizio. Now if I could only convince them to extend a similar price on something along the size of a 65", that would make my year. I would be happy to go to the Pacer warehouse in Inglewood again to pick up a larger set, as I did for this one.

WOW just isn't good enough! Review by Braxton

This TV is to replace an 6yr old 24" lcd that was never very impressive. The Picture is incredible! The size is perfect, almost like a painting. Have had the TV for little over a month and it is getting heavy usage. Right out of the box it was up and running within 10 minutes. Great picture, color and clarity. Great sound. This is our first Vizio, and boy did it hit it out the park. Brings main room picture quality to the bedroom. This is definitely a superb TV and you won't be disappointed. We were so happy with it we bought another for the guest room.

Great value, Great picture Review by dogbone

Wanted a reasonably priced TV as #3 in the house so we went right to Vizio because of the reputation for the most TV for the money. We weren't disappointed. Abundant features, great picture, easy menus with enough preference selectability to suit all but the most finicky viewer. We have all our other TV's hooked up to cable - this one is hooked up to an old analog antenna in our attic. The tuner does a great job of bringing in the local digital channels; the picture is on par with our "cable" TV's. Our Sony blu-ray DVD plays very well with this Vizio model.
Buy it - you're gonna like it!

WOW!! Worth evvery dollar! Review by tutle

Big time decision went into the purchase of this top of the line Vizio. One thing that was really impotant to us was PIP and great sound. We now have both. I watch sports on the small PIP screen and when the team scores I just switch it over or this enables me to miss commercials all the time. The hook up was a breeze even for a senior citizen. The TV it replaced was 14 years old and still played great but we really wanted the HD for guests and family. Would have bought the mega size but not ready to get rid of the entertainment center yet. By buying the top of the line model we got 1080, 120 hz, PIP and POP, it is only 2" thick, and lots of HDMI plug ins. EXTREMELY happy with this model and VIsio in general.

this is the best 32" out right now Review by lance

until they come out with a 32" led tv this is the best you can get. we have been looking for a new tv for a good while. our old zenith finally went out. when my dad saw this one, i think he sh!t a brick. i have a friend with a 46" big name tv, he wants to trade. it is absolutely amazing. idk if anyone else has noticed the difference between tv and a home movie, how the home movie appears clearer. i watched flubber last night like it was a home movie if you get my reference. simply put, super clear, no lag, 0 ghosting

Simply Amazed Review by TV Buff

After waiting and waiting for the latest Vizio XVT series to hit the shelves, i did plenty of research to see if there was anything better currently on the market. after several months, i can honestly say no. This little 32inch really packs a punch! Its so lifelike, you will be sitting there scratching your head wondering how they do it. I have already re-watched several older DVDs and the quality and details that you can see are amazing!

The picture and contrast is simply amazing. This TV blows away several larger LCDs that my friends own, and we find ourselves sitting in front of this bad boy instead to watch football/baseball/basketball games. The speakers sound great, and the built in SRS features are extremely nice since i dont have to crank down the volume for commercials since it auto-levels the volume for me!

I have recommended this to a few friends and they have seen my TV and know the value of this product.

You will not be disappointed.

One Amazing TV! Review by Stephen

I originally bought my 32" vizio XVT for video games, and I have to say that this is an outstanding piece of equipment. I had a 23" samsung that would display at 720p. I wanted to upgrade to a larger television without breaking my bank. Initially I was going to go for a 26" vizio that produce 1080p. I am glad that I chose wiser because now I get to experience Full 1080p HD that also produces double the refresh rate @ 120Hz. This is a significant improvement in my overall entertainment satisfaction. The best part is seeing the displeasure on other faces when I explain to them the amazing deal I got.

O yeah, not to forget mentioning that Vizio is the #1 selling brand in America!!!
