Side by Side Comparison of: VIZIO vs VideoSecu vs Sanus vs Samsung

Easy setup, once my internet was working properly, i had to restart my router. Everything fell into place. I want to just stay home and watch Amazon Pride movies. If you have HBO you may feel cheated, cause you get some HBO movies with your Prime Membership. This television is beautiful. Once your smart tv is set everything falls into place with all the add ons.

This is our first HDTV. Television entertainment is not high on my family's list of activities. Although after seeing the fantastic picture that this TV produces we'll probably being enjoying it more often.I have this wall mounted with a Cheetah mount. Cheetah Mounts APTMM2B TV Wall Mount for 32-65" TVs Bundle with 10-feet Braided HDMI Cable and a 6 Inch, 3-Axis Magnetic Bubble. This wall mount fits this TV size perfectly.I am using a Vizio sound bar. We are very happy that we purchased this sound bar. The audio is much fuller and more realistic compared to the TV's speakers. VIZIO SB3820-C6 38-Inch 2.0 Channel Sound Bar (2015 Model)I also purchased the Vizio XTR303 remote. This remote makes searching through apps very easy. VIZIO XRT302 KE Internet Qwerty Keyboard Remote for Select VIZIO TV'S

Very Good Set and Affordable. Amazon has (on the remote) an access button for Amazon direct link to their website. The remote control does take some getting use to but offers many menu choices and set up cues. Picture quality (like most sets now) is good. This set allows TINT adjustment whereas many 2015 TV's no longer let the user correct Tint. Sound is fair but does offer output for speakers. The built in Smart TV also is good and works well and offers many choices (by pressing the "V" button) on the remote - which can only be accessed by having wifi in your home, office or business. One fatal flaw is no built in guide when using Over the Air digital channels. The info for program is limited to the station you are tuned to. No guide what so ever.The installed apps are: (most are pay subscriptions) However some are free :Netflix / Amazon Instant Videos/ iHeart Radio/Vudu Movies & TV / Hulu Plus / Pandora / Spotify / Twitter / Yahoo News/ Yahoo Fantasy Football / Yahoo News / Yahoo Screen / Revision 3/ B Music/ iFood.Tv / HotList Web Videos /Multimedia / Ebay / Yahoo Weather / Flix Fling / Flicker / Crackle / Yahoo Finance/ Fandango / Yahoo Sports / Tune In / Facebook / and Plex. There are firmware and updates that Amazon and Vizeo will provide for this TV.The semi-gloss screen can be an issue if there is bright light or shadowing from light sources. Some Televisions are completly glossy as well as laptops so this is something to consider when thinking about a new set. For Streaming Video YOUR internet connection speed must be 1.5 Mbps and higher.An Ethernet cable can be connected to the back of the set. Power supply from the TV is to YOUR right of the set (facing the TV) the connections for plug in devices and inputs are to the left of the TV . There are 2 HDMI inputs and 1 USB as well as your Component and Composite inputs.

My review is a non technical one for people who just want to know if this is worth the hard earned dollars. I really wanted a 4k TV, but after doing a ton of research I decided that while 4k is amazing, it just didn't justify the huge jump in price. If budget isn't an issue then skip this TV. I've had this for 2 days and it is one of 4 in my home. The first thing I love about it is the picture. It is crystal clear. You can easily adjust the settings to optimize based on the room you're in. Once you have it the way you like it you can sit back and enjoy. I tested the picture by going through various types of shows and movies. No pixelation or any noticeable issues. The remote is nice and simple with 3 extra buttons for Amazon Prime movies, Netflix, and iHeart Radio which is awesome. I tested these services and again the picture was awesome. I have a 150Mb wireless connection so the streaming was flawless.I checked out the sound next. I don't ever recommend using only TV speakers, but this was adequate. Not bad, not great. I have since hooked up an old Bose 321 system and it's perfect. Get an inexpensive sound bar and you'll be happy.The only minor flaw for me is the width. It's decent plus I watch it from the front not the side but it would have been nice to have a thinner profile.Lastly I must mention the delivery service. This was as good as it gets. You schedule a day and time slot. They call as they are coming to which was nice. There were 2 men that carried the TV into my house. They unboxed it, put on the legs (I'm not mounting this on the wall), put it exactly where I wanted it, then removed the box and all packing material and took it with them. Just awesome.Overall I don't think you can get a better TV and delivery service for the money. A high end 65" 1080p TV with a 240 refresh rate? Come on now. Enjoy!UPDATE: Now that I've had the TV for a few weeks I can say it is really one of the top I've owned. Again, while not 4k, the picture is outstanding. Blacks are deep, and no pixelation, stutter, or any issues at all. I'm very happy with this purchase, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find any TV of this quality for this price. Hope this helps.

One thing i like that is and improvement over the previous generation is the fact that the Netflix, I heart radio and Amazon buttons work as power button also. The remote control designed in wonderful! TV picture is great.

Awesome TV! Great picture. Awesome veiwing angle. This TV is huge! The remote doesn't have a qwerty keyboard like the m-series remotes, but that's fine. I didnt really need it anyways. The stand or legs of this TV are far apart. If your going to stand this TV up on a TV stand or something, the stand needs to be at least 4.5 feet long.

Having owned or installed about 10-12 different mounts I have to say this is one of the easiest and most sturdy mount out there. It hugs the wall and there is no sag like in the mounts that extend away from the wall. Its give you the ability to tilt the screen and is very simple to use.Very simple, sturdy design the just works. After replacing an existing mount because the articulating arms caused sag, I couldn't be happier with this one. So, when one of my TV's needed repair and I was removing it from the existing mount, I decided its time to buy a 3rd one.

Exceeds my expectations and delivery was on schedule. The mount does exactly as described. Holds my 60" nice and steady. I suggest using the mounting spacers for additional room to access tv connector panels at the rear and kind of helps for tilt adjustments. I actually installed cables/ power cord and set tilt prior to my son and I mounting "My Precious". LOL. Looks and works great for us!Measure and check for postion and straightness, as many times as you need, before drilling your pilot holes. BUT.. if your measurements are slightly off to one side, the sliding feature will bail you out. It won't help with leveling. You've been warned. LOL, GOOD LUCK!

I mounted an olders 47" LED TV to an exterior wall, and had no difficulty, although it is important to follow the instructions carefully, and get everything very level. This TV is quite heavy, and the mount holds it securely. Very strong lag bolts are provided to hold it in studs, which I recommend. My only concern is that it seems like it would be possible for someone horsing around to slide the TV off the mount if they really wanted to. The TV looks much better on the wall than it used to on a table, and we can tilt it a bit.

Just make sure that you have studs 26 inches apart and you should be fine. There is enough data on this page that you should be able to take measurements and know where you are going to place this mount before you even order it.That being said. I opted for this model over a model half the price because I read it has quality parts, and it also has tilt. Even if you don't think tilt will be valuable for you based on where you are going to watch your television, it might be valuable for you if you need to hook up components to the TV afters it's been mounted. If I want to hook up a new HDMI connection after installation, i don't need to take down the television (Even though it's easier than you think it might be with how the attachments work). I can just tilts up the television and i should be able to reach what I need.I am using this with a VIZIO M70-C3 70-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV (2015 Model) and it is working exactly the way I want it to. It is worth the price with the sturdiness, quality of parts, and tilt functionality.

This mount was perfect for our Samsung TV. It came with all the hardware we needed to do the job. There is a lot of adjustability left and right, and it tilted even more than we needed. The instructions were clearly written by somebody who understands English. It took less than 30 minutes from start to finish.You will need some tools to completed the installation. We used a cordless drill, 7/32' drill bit for the pilot holes into the wall. A ratchet and 1/2" socket to screw the lag bolts in, a level and a stud finder.

Bought this TV Wall Mount for my Samsung UN75J6300 TV. The mount was easy to install, and it's very easy to re-position the TV once it's on the mount. Price was incredible. Similar mounts were running for over $100 at Best Buy. Very satisfied with my purchase.

When I received the TV, it worked for one day and then wouldn't turn on anymore. I skipped calling Amazon (I bought this TV from Amazon Warehouse) and went straight to VIZIO in hopes that the TV was still under warranty. Fortunately for me, it was under warranty and they paid for a local repairman to come to my house and fix it. The TV now works as if it was brand new. The only reason I give it four stars was because it was broken upon arrival. Aside from my initial hiccup, I love this TV and would recommend it for the price.

Picture on this set looks great and the input lag is low for playing games (when set to game mode) which is what I bought it for. the sound can be difficult to hear unless turned up quite a bit so I usually turn on a stereo to make up for it--this was a known issue going in so I can't complain too much about it.The apps seem a little clunky/underpowered/laggy; they take longer than I'd like to boot and if I, for example, start a YouTube video on my iPad and stream it to the TV it will launch the YouTube app, hesitate for a moment like it's going to play the video then load the standard interface like I just launched the app on the TV. Pushing play on the iPad again will show a pop-up w/ a play button which will then play the video on the TV--kinda weird behavior, but a minor inconvenience.

This is a great TV without a doubt, picture quality is very good especially after you tweak it a bit. A great feature is the audio digital out which delivers bitstream regardless of source so the receiver can decode whatever comes in. My [more expensive] Samsung cannot do this and delivers only PCM or DTS:Neo for the apps like Netflix etc.Having the 2 feet make it more stable for such a big screen if you dont wall mount and the small frame looks really good. The remote is not the best with no backlight and squishy buttons but I used a Harmony universal remote anyway so no biggie for me. I got this for a family member and wish I had kept this one and given them the Samsung which says it all really.

This TV worked great, for 2 days. Then it just started freezing after you start it and try to execute any menu commands. I called customer service (Vizio) and the troubleshooting steps verified that it was defective. No repairs or replacement options are available for this model, so they've told me I have to send them pictures proving the TV freezes (aren't all pictures frozen?) along with proof of purchase and they'll let me know what's next. I'll update the post once I learn more.My primary mistake: I tossed the box to the TV after a couple of days of it working. If I hadn't, maybe I could have just returned it through the more friendly Amazon method :(**Update: After awaiting a promised call from Vizio that never came, i contacted them and they instructed me to mail them the TV back for a refund . No prepaid shipping or anything. I decided to call Amazon and they were brilliant. Replaced the TV and provided return labels for the busted one!My replacement hasn't had any issues. I suspect that my original froze when I connected it to my PC via the Plex app to use it as a media server. I didn't set that up on my replacement TV and haven't had any issues. That may not have been the cause, but I thought I'd share in case it helps anyone.**12/2015 UPDATE**So far, no issues with the replacement TV. I watch Hulu, Netflix, Amazon VOD, Crackle and even movies off of my USB drive (MP4 format) and haven't had any issues. Bumped the rating up to 4 stars now. Still can't give 5 because of the poor customer support from Vizio.**12/2016 UPDATE**Still using the TV and it works great. Someone on YouTube found a fix for my original issue, which involves resetting the TV's network card, but i haven't needed it. Really love being able to play movies off of a flash drive!

I've had this television for about a week now, and all in all, it's definitely a worthwhile purchase. But with all its pros come some cons. So let's break this package down, and take a look at why you should buy this TV if you're in the market for a thirty-two-inch, and why you should be prepared to not completely love it.First, the pros--1. This television's wireless. No Roku, no Chromecast, no Fire TV needed. You just open up the settings, find your network, plug in your password, and...voila. You're ready to be disappointed by the latest season of Orange is the New Black.2. This television has a native refresh rate of one-hundred-twenty hertz, with a simulated refresh of--I think--two-forty.That's not something you see in a lot of thirty-two inch budget sets. Most sit at around sixty hertz, which is fine if you'd like to pretend you're living in 1847, but this modern America, dagnabit. I want my one-hundred-twenty hertz of smooth motion goodness, and I'm not settling for anything less. And speaking of picture quality...3. It's 1080p. Says it right in the title, but I thought I'd remind you in case you'd forgotten already.4. It's cheap! And I don't mean cheap in terms of build-quality. That's actually pretty good, which I'll elaborate on in my next point. No, when I say cheap, I mean most sets with these specs at this size would be going for AT LEAST a hundred dollars more. And even most of the ones sitting at THAT price range will be trading off for either 720p or sixty hertz to keep the price down. What Vizio's offering here is an amazing deal, and Amazon's sweetened the pot with an extra ten dollars off for Prime members. Even Costco isn't selling them that cheap. Then again, you can't pick up a hot dog and a drink for a dollar-fifty while you're on Amazon. Or at least, you shouldn't.5. The build quality--it's actually pretty good.6. The smart menu's easy to access, unobtrusive, and looks about as good as a smart menu can look.Okay, now, on to the cons--1. The smart menu feels a little cluttered. It's got a lot of apps most people won't need, and despite an admittedly short time playing with it, I have yet to figure out how to remove the ones I don't use.2. For having such great specs, the picture quality on this TV doesn't blow me away the same way my fifty does or my old forty. I'm not sure why that is--maybe it's a setting I've missed--but that realism just isn't there to the same degree.3. It's thick. Not huge, mind you, but thicker than some of its counterparts. Did this bother me? No. But for some, I know, thickness is a big factor, either for practical reasons or bragging rights. Because, you know...that's a thing, I guess.4. There's no digital audio out. There's optical, sure, because that's the future. And there's RCA, because...that's the past? But my RS-160s are located in the present, and they operate on digital. Now, this obviously isn't a HUGE deal, since you can spend thirteen dollars to convert your optical to digital, or spent four and change on some RCA adapters, but if you use headphones or a sound system reliant on a digital audio out port, be sure you order some kind of adapter to get it working with this set right out of the box. Because apparently, RCA's still a big deal, but your headphones are a thing of the past.In conclusion, this is an amazing deal for a great TV, and despite some very minor flaws, I'd recommend this to anyone looking to spruce up their dorm room, bedroom, office, or studio with a sleek budget television.

I purchased this set on tuesday and after a few days I am going to do a short review. I will update next week after I have had more time with the settings.Overall it is a very good set. Picture is great, features are great and it looks awesome mounted on my wall. I like the minimal design, I like the minimal remote as well, even though most people seem to be upset there isn't a keyboard. The only function button on the TV itself is a small power button on the rear of the set, near the HDMI ports, for turning it on and off. I am fine with that, as I have several remotes that program and I don't plane on "Losing" the remote like some reviewers are worried about. (see: too lazy to look for it). here's a couple of categories:Design: 5/5The bezel is thin, and sexy. The set itself not thick depth-wise, but not too thin either. It weighs about 55 pounds and is easy to move around. The Vizio badging is in the bottom right corner, and is very minimal and classy. I'm so glad they no longer do the lit up Vizio emblems.The screen itself has a matte finish, and hides glare definition, but no all the glare. If you have an open window directly across from it, it will show. But at least it only shows as a glare, not defined images. This should be expected, and the matte screen hels a lot.Picture 5/5The picture is outstanding. I'm talking overall picture here, not the clear motion and added bells and whistles, I'll get to that later. As for the picture, each preset color/contrast setting is done very well. I primarily use the VIVID setting, as it is the brightest, and the colors just pop on the screen. HD content is phenomal. This is what 1080p was designed for. I'm talking true 1080p content. Not HD ota channels, and not netflix over Wifi, (i'll explain in a minute.) I'm talking blu ray discs, or native 1080p video files direct on USB drives. It looks phenomenal. We watched Noah and Malifecent on the USB drive in 1080 format, and it was ultra realistic, and the colors were amazing. All the settings help each scene or movie type look better. Let's understand one thing though, you cannot just run the complete factory settings on ANY TV. You have to adjust them for your living room, for your movies, and for your liking. This applies to all televisions. They are NOT iphones. They don't set themselves up. They have basic general settings, and they look fine, but to get it to look as good as they do in the store or online, you need to make some adjustments. If you're making a 1000+ dollar investment, you should learn how to use it. Not all the settings or features are for everybody. That brings me to the next topicPicture add ons 3/5Don't get me wrong, I know somebody likes the clear motion stuff, I just don't like it very much. That being said, I;m basing my score on it's functionality on this set, not my preference. Clear motion works amazing with native 1080p content, at the proper frame rate. That means Blu ray, USB video files, Ps4 content (except for FPS games) it runs clear and looks good. I have my PS4 wired with an ethernet, and the non native 1090p streaming app videos look good too, but any streaming 1080 videos that rely on bandwidth for their resolution it just looks cheap like a soap opera and all the defects are put on larger display. While I understand this is an overall Wifi issue, it is more prevelant because of the clear motion, and it just isn't there yet in terms of making the picture look better. If the processor somehow could detect settings and slow itself down, it'd be much better. As for video games, in 1080p at 30fps destiny looks amazing normally, but the clear motion caused so much clipping and dizziness it was unplayable. Do not expect to play high frame rate games at 1080p with clear motion. The jagging and clipping is brought out even more, because the processor thinks you are missing frames and adds frames where they aren't there. Same thing goes with the black detailer and the noise reduction engine. Anytime the signal coming in is questionable (high framte rate, low bandwidth streaming on wifi) you will notice pixelation and blockiness. It's not the TV, its the data and the technology. It's trying to make up for missing information, and it just doesn't work. I gave this a lower score as a result of the technology itself, still not being there. To be fair I haven't seen it work properly across all platforms with ANY TV, even the hgih end sets. AS for the local dimming feature, I notice the blacks look very deep and dark, but I don't have anything to compare them to as I came from a plasma set that had the same deep blacks as this set. The contrast on this set is phenomenal.Video Games 5/5Once I tweaked the settings, raised the framerate and changed the contrast settings, this TV actually makes my PS4 games look BETTER. The ms delay is unnoaticable. This is me coming from High end Samsung plasma with almost no delay, and moving to an LED and this latency is EVEN BETTER. You just have to remember to turn off clear motion, and turn off film mode, turn on game mode, and adjust the frame rate setting to HIGH. Advanced warfare looks real. Destiny looks like a CGI movie being played, and its insane how vivid and clear the colors are. Blacks are intense and deep too. Once the settings are correct, there is no clipping at all, and its playing at 30fps the whole time. This is only possible with an ethernet connection, I wouldnt risk it with a Wifi connection unless you're playing a game that isn't online based.Apps 2/5Here's where it goes bad. Vizio apps have always gotten the job done, but not been flashy. While on this set they certainly still do, they are starting to feel aged. The app button is nice, and scrolling through the wheel (although slow) it has all the apps a few presses away. What concerns me in this category is that they have a netflix button, an Amazon button, ....and an Iheart radio button? Who needs that at one press? Ever? It's 2015 and the third button should ALWAYS be a HULU button. If not, then just give us stickers with the remote and let us program the buttons ourselves. I'm still not sure if you can or can't program each one, I'll update if that changes. As for the apps themselvs, they fell just like the console apps on PS4 or Xbox, and are slightly better than the versions available on Roku. The app list however.... is much to be desired. No WWE network, No FxNow, No Mlb.tv, No Sunday Ticket, and lastly, NO web Browser. It also has no current option for "throwing" or "casting" from your mobile device, which is something I think they should start adding to these sets. The app fucntions themselves render using the app menu over my Ps4 fairly useless, at least until I get an ethernet cable ran to my TV now too. I have a gaming router, and it doesn't matter where you are or who you are, wifi is not better than a wire. Streaming varies on signal strength and everything from cell phones to microwaves can screw up your signal at any time. One other thing I'm having issue with, the netflix app, whenever it goes on to the next episode after it plays one, the next episode comes up and it puts it in a PIP window in the top left. If i pause, the netflix menu is still full screen, but the picture image is in the top left. Weird. I'm certain its the app, not the set, because it only happens to netflix.Compatibiliy 5/5This set plays all the video files i have on my network drive, and works with every connection I have hooked up to it. I just wish it had that option to throw my Experia data to it. Guess I need a Chromecast.Sound 4/5The speakers are kind of low volume, but to their credit, the sound is accurate and has a depth to it. You have to turn the volume up past 50 to start hearing talking parts, and that's kind of wierd for me, so i'm not giving full stars there. Lets be honest though, don't expect much out of a flat screen tv sound wise. If you're not pairing a flat screen with a surround sound or at least sound bar, thats your mistake, or its in a room where sound isn't an issue for you.Price 5/5It says it all. There is no tv with this kind of picture, this size, in this price range, Brand new. Period. Vizio owns that market.Overall, for me its a 5/5. For everyone else, being fair, a 4/5.Its a great set, I dont regret my purchase at all. It looks great, and sounds great. it does everything you can expect it to. It only lost that final star because the apps leave a little to be desired, the extra processing options don't do anything for me personally,and I'm being fair. They don't apply to me, so for me this set is perfect.This set is worth more than what they're charging.I will update any changes or if I learn more.Any questions, just ask!

Great mount. I initially ordered a cheap cheetah mount, which was too flimsy, a pain to assemble and overall garbage. I've used Sanus in the past and actually had a mount that i have return due to my TV being to heavy. There customer service was awesome and they cross shipped me a brand new mount that was rated for my TV. Don't go cheap, go with Sanus and you'll be a happy camper!

Unsure how to approach this review. It ADVERTISES as a Low Profile mount..... and to that end it certainly succeeds. It was so low profile I couldn't even get to the inputs of the tv without completely removing it from the wall (no easy task with a 75" tv). Getting to the tilt adjustment was also impossible, So I had to remove it and purchase a different one. Works exactly as advertised, and for a smaller tv I would have loved it, but for a larger tv it didn't work out so well for me.

I used this mount for 4 TVs recently ranging from 40"-65". It was nice to be able to use the same mount since you get used to the particulars of installing it. The install is not hard once you locate wall studs (I did not trust anything but studs). The mount holds the TV pretty close to the wall. My only complaint is that some TVs require the use of spacers on the back on the TV, which negates some of the low-profile aspects of this mount.

It felt like real good quality but like almost every aftermarket wall mount, I had to go to the hardware store to get proper bolts. I bought a Samsung 65" and it required 'Standard VESA' m8 45mm long bolts. 3 sizes of m6 and 3 sizes of m8 but the longest m8 was 30mm.I went to the hardware store and they only sell 30mm, 40mm and 50mm. So I got to buy the 50mm and cut them down since 50mm is too long. He knew exactly what I was buying them for. Lots of wall mounts have this problem.I wish VESA standard really meant VESA standard. If i had known, I could have purchased the proper size ahead of time instead of having to use a hack saw on $2 bolts.Loved the mount itself.

Works great, feels sturdy. Holds my 65" Vizio well. I know it's a contradiction since this is low profile, but would be nice to have room to loosen the tilt more easily. Overall, it's a great product.

Mount installs easily and the instructions are easy to follow. It is almost impossible to adjust the tilt once the tv is mounted. The mount is a low profile mount but it is so close to the wall that you cannot reach the knobs to make adjustments.

Pros: Good picture. Loaded with features. The amazon and netflix buttons help get me where I want to go. The remote is laid out very well. Button positioning makes sense where on other remotes it does not.Cons: Tends to freeze up after more than 2 - 3 hours of watching TV. Sound quality is ok at best. I have it mounted about 3 inches from the wall. initially it was about 1 inch from the wall and the sound was terrible.If I did a 2 month in home trial and had the option to return it I would have. I've had this for about 7 months and there are days where I hate this TV and there are days when I think, it was inexpensive, the picture is pretty good and you got what you paid for. I have yet to think, wow this TV is awesome. So if you're looking for a decent TV at a good price this might be the one. If you're looking for a TV with excellent picture and sound, move along, move along.

Just a little background but I have previously owned Sony Bravia series, Samsung and LG TVs, the top end television brands. I was also a professional photographer and have spent hundreds of hours color correcting images. I also took a semester in college of color theory. So, although I am not a LED TV expert, I do know a lot about images, color and sharpness.The image on this television leans too much to the cyan side (cool blue color). Additionally, the clarity and pixel density appear to be lower than the more premium brands. Not all 1080ps are equal. Some televisions more efficiently display 1080p than others. When I tried to correct for the cyan it didn't quite color correct and went into the reds too much (the opposite of cyan). The color didn't really balance. To this TV's credit computer cartoons like "UP" or "Ice Age" look really good. Video games also look really good on this set. Computer generated cartoons and video games looked as clear, bright and colorful as any premium TV, however it was live action shots that had issues.This might not be an issue for some people and they may not be color snobs like me. However, if your previous TV was a premium one and you are expecting the same image quality here, then you should manage your expectations. The image, in most cases, will be somewhat noticeably inferior. If this is your first television (and you've never owned a premium brand TV before), then you probably won't notice it.Another issue with this television is that although the Smart TV user interface and functionality is good, the WiFi receiver on this thing is bad (as others have said). Okay, my WiFi router isn't very close, but I had to attach a Roku to this thing to get a decent signal. The Roku 2's WiFi receiver is infinitely better than Vizio's internal WiFi receiver. I don't understand the point of having good Smart TV functionality if you are gonna stick a bad WiFi receiver onto your TV? Anyways, just saying your WiFi router better be close. Real close or you'll need to ditch this TV's Smart functions and get yourself a Roku.Overall, in this world, you get what you pay for. This TV, in my opinion, is just good and okay. Three, maybe three and a half, stars.

This TV is ok after I got it to work; however, there are some things a buyer should know before purchasing:a) The TV is thicker than one might expect for a flat screen LCD display in 2016b) The remote is a bit clunky and slow in responsivenessc) The Amazon button doesn't do anythingd) I don't know why there is an iHeart radio button on the remote; it should be dedicated to Hulu (much more likely to be useful)e) The V button on the remote is supposed to show a full apps menu when double clicked: instead it is not possible to get the full apps menu as described in the quick guide.f) Setting up Internet seems pretty straightforward and the image quality is decent, so yay for that.g) If you, like me, don't care about setting up the TV for cable, antenna, or other and instead skip that part of the setup, beware: the TV apparently doesn't allow you to setup your apps unless you go through the TV channel guide scan first. Every time I tried to set up Netflix, it kept telling me to set up my Internet even though I had already done that, and I tried with both Ethernet cable and WiFi. Same results for Amazon and Hulu. It wasn't until I figured a moron had perhaps programmed the setup process that I decided to go through the TV antenna channel scan first, then turned off the TV (very important), then turned it back on again, and then tried to set up Netflix that it actually gave me the expected login screen for Netflix. After setting up Netflix, I tried the Amazon app, which again told me to set up my Internet. I again turned the TV off, waited a minute, turned it back on again, and voila, I was presented with the Amazon login screen. Then Hulu, and I was done.Now I am able finally to use the TV as expected, but... if you think, like me, that this should have been a much better experience, I would probably avoid this TV in favor of a Samsung or Sony or Sharp.At this point, I don't think I will return the TV since I got it working, but if I had known, I would have avoided this TV and bought something from a more reputable brand than Vizio. You will undoubtedly end up paying more, but probably getting a better product.

Great picture, Very easy set up. Loved that it had amazon and netflix built right into it plus many more apps but they seem very outdated and do not work very well. The built in wifi is not very good and when we do use the built in apps they do not run well and are very fuzzy. We had to end up connecting our apple tv for a better picture to use the same apps that the built in firestick had. The tv does have an ethernet port in the back but it's not a practical position because not many people will have internet directly behind their tv. On a positive note all the connections in the back hdmi, power, component are all pointing down making it easily mountable.

First: a major complaint: the default setting lets your TV watch YOU. I don't want my viewing habits passed along to the manufacturer and marketers, so I turned off that setting. But I only learned about this "feature" by reading something in a tech article. Shame on VIZIO and other manufacturers who are doing this. It's completely slimy, and I probably wouldn't purchase from VIZIO again.That said, the TV works well, has a good picture quality, and was relatively easy to set up. I've had some trouble with the "smart" functions; it doesn't play nicely with my DirecTV remote, and the remote that comes with it is ridiculously complicated, hard to see, and generally annoys me on a regular basis. I end up using my DirecTV remote because at least I can see what's on it.The sound is mediocre at best, but I use headphones much of the time so that's less of a problem. I'd strongly suggest purchasing separate audio equipment.

I read a few of the reviews before buying this product, so I was aware of the issues. My daughters loves it. Out of the box I had issues with setting the internet connection, I had to reset back to factory default several times with support on the phone. I got the Amazon Prime app to connect once, has not work since. Netflix works fine. My primary issue with the TV is the wireless connection, when I read the others who had problem with WIFI I regretfully dismissed it as people who are non-technical since my primary job is a Wireless Engineer, well guess what the WIFI sucks on the TV, I had to run a RJ45 cable to TV.Technical support was very helpfully but very lacking in pieces i needed help with the most, getting Amazon Prime to work. The TV is worth the money I paid for it lacking the wireless issues.

It holds our 60" TV on the wall just fine, but it is not level. All brackets were installed as directed, and a level was used to confirm rails were even, but the TV definitely slopes down. Even uninstalled and tried again with the same results. Leads me to believe the holes on the rails attached to the TV were not machined evenly. If you're watching something on TV, hopefully it is good enough to distract you from the uneven mount.

Somewhat weak. Can bend if TV too heavy for it. But, overall a good product for the reduced price I found it for in Amazon Warehouse Deals.

Didn't fit the UN65JU7500. Had to cut the rear bush off into half. Overall a decent one.

Overall the mount works well. As noted in other posts the lateral bar that you mount to the wall is quite short for larger TVs. We bought an 80" Vizio and the lateral movement was maybe 1-1/2" per side. If you studs are off, this can create a big issue positioning and centering the TV. It does not make much sense to have it this short other than streamlining production and saving cost.Other posts are also right on tilt and access to the back of the TV. Low profile is great but you must have tilt established before mounting larger TVs and know where (or plug in first) the power and other cables.

Works Ok, but more difficult to install than others I"ve used.

The screws that came with this mount will not fit a Samsung 65 " Curved TV You will need to purchase (4) M8 - 1.25 x 25 MM (metric) screws to attach the mounting brackets to the back of the set. Other than that I would give 5 stars

I am giving this TV 2 stars as when it worked properly it was just fine. Of course after the warranty expired I started having problems. You used to buy a TV and it worked for 50 years, in the modern world you feel you have done well if a TV makes it 50 weeks.To sum up my problems the TV started shutting off or losing connections just by hitting remote buttons or sometimes just on its on. The apps such as Netflix would freeze up or not connect, volume would not work, you name it and I assure you I have tried everything. I literally had to power on and off or reset the TV 10 times a day to get it to work. Again, this all started post warranty.As I write this I am watching TV without volume and again, everything has been tried. Both my Vizio and cable remote used to work the TV, now neither will communicate with the TV. All I can do is power it on by the power button on back and that is it. I think of it as a visual work of art now representing how technology now controls our lives in the modern world, not an actual TV.18 months. Sad.

TV itself isn't bad but it can't go more than 10 minutes on Hulu without freezing up. A computer and a tablet placed right next to the TV do not experience this issue and it seems isolated to the TV iteself. There are a ton of forums on this issue that I discovered only after I subscribed to Hulu. If you are a cord cutter then factor in the price of a Roku or similar device because it cannot handle Hulu at all. It does do fine with other services such as Amazon and Netflix.

I liked the TV. The picture was quite good. The remote was relatively user friendly and set up was easy. Adjusting the set was a breeze. BUT, I was very disappointed when after two weeks of use the input function started to falter. I really wanted to keep the set. However, knowing the hassles of trying to get it repaired, I decided to return it for a refund before the return period lapsed. I would say that it is a good value for $450 or under. After watching prices for months I got mine for $379 (new, original box). Prices vary hugely over an extended period of time.

Hard-wired to InternetPros:-Opens Amazon Video and Netflix in less than 10secs-CheapCons:-Sound is disappointing. Constant hiss from speakers. Highs frequencies sound distorted even when using optical output to receiver.-Noticeable light bleed from one spot on upper left edge.-Difficult to get the picture to look right. Lots of background blurr with motion.-Locked-up once and only reset after unplugging.

This TV has a nice picture and is a good deal for the price but do not buy it for its smart tv features. The apps are terrible and mostly broken. Do not even think of buying this tv for the Facebook app since it's broken. Just search on the Internet for Facebook on Vizio and you will see for yourself. Also note that there are no apps available that can control the tv in leu of the remote control. That's a serious disappointment.

I purchased this item specifically because I stream a lot of programming over Net Flix and Amazon and the size is perfect for the space in my home office. The streamed programs buffered too frequently to make viewing enjoyable. I do not have a problem streaming content on my computer, iPhone or Kindle. I concluded the problem was with the TV. I contacted Vizio support via live chat, went through a total reset of the tv as instructed. I was then kicked off the live chat because I was evidently on with the technician too long as he said he would have to end the chat session after 3-5 minutes even though I was having work my way through a total reset up process. The problem was not resolved, and I could not get the screen size to readjust on regular broadcast programs. I believe I will constantly have problems with this TV and have decided to return it. I guess you get what you pay for.

puts the television in almost an upward tilt - move on from this one

It is not designed for Samsung 7 series (at least for my 40"). First: I had to buy longer screws and extra washers. Secondary: there are no easy way to hide the strings that are used to remove TV from mount. Third: "10 degrees of tilt with the touch of a finger - no tools necessary" - that promise does not work as you cannot reach handles to loose vertical bars.

you pay for the brand

Don't buy from Vizio! They do not stand behind their products. Called and filed a claim within the warranty period and then started having the same problem a few months later and the tv died. They said they would replace it, but oops the warranty was no longer in effect so I got screwed out of a replacement. The screen just went crazy. It happened within warranty, but it sputtered back to life and lasted a couple more months. Just long enough to be out of warranty and even though I filed a claim within the warranty time they would not do anything about a replacement. Not a partial nothing zero zip. Go to Costco and buy a tv with a real warranty.

This TV has already broken within a year ! The on off button on back of TV doesnt work nor does the remote and the only to get the tv to turn on is by unplugging the wire from back and plugging back in. Frustrating.

I knew I shouldn't have bought a Vizio product. I've had this TV for a year and we hardly watch it... Maybe 3-4 times a month. My mother-in-law is staying with us now and watches TV all day... This TV turns off for no reason or starts blinking red, blue and green in the middle of TV shows. Sometimes it won't even turn on. I have to unplug it every time to get it back on track.It has decent picture and audio but its no award winner... But none of that matters if it turns off for no reason.

I bought this TV to have the capability of Netflix. Netflix would not work on this TV, right out of the box. (Other TVs in th home work fine with Netflix). Vizio instructed me to return the TV for repair, which I did. That was a 2 week process. After the repair, we re- installed the TV. Netflix still would not work. I had Vizio on the phone going through each step. Finally, she states that she will have to replace the TV since it has already been 'repaired' once. What!! Another 2 week process?! This is the catch...I purchased a brand new TV, but Vizio wants to replace it with a 'certified TV' (used). If I wanted a used TV, I would have bought one at the Good Will. Vizio...never again!

TV died after 60 days of use. Make sure you get the extended warranty on this device as it's likely to spend the majority of its time being shipped between your house and the repair facility. or, better yet, buy a product from a reputable manufacturer.

Had to unplug and plug back in in order to turn the TV on. Once it was on, if you used one function button (i.e. volume) you could not use another function without turning the TV off and on (after unplugging and plugging back in). Very frustrating! TV is being returned!

one side of brackets for tv has to be filed in order to hook on bottom of wall bracket.I bought two sets, but one of them has a problem.

There are other competitors out there that seem to make very similar products, and the differences are minor spec wise.

It does not fit my PLED 65" TV.
