Customer Review: Some problems out of the box but still pretty good
Pros: 1. Price/Value (got it for $525 brand new on Ebay) 2. # of inputs 3. pretty good audio Cons: 1. Layout of remote isn't too good 2. Power cord is ridiculously short 3. The VIZIO icon in the middle of the tv stays illuminated after turning the tv off! I find this to be very annoying! 4. The color black on this tv isn't dark enough. Misc. Issues - My tv had (2) dead pixels. Not noticeable while actually using the tv, but they are there. Was advised by tech support that they only replace/repair the LCD tvs if they have (5) or more dead/stuck pixels. - My major problem with the tv is (and I'm not sure whether it is just mine or with this model in general) is screen uniformity. The top right, bottom right and bottom left are all very visibly brighter from the light that powers the LCD screen. Keep in mind that I watch tv in an almost completely dark room so this kind of thing would be amplified especially when the screen is black or watching a widescreen movie. I'm in the middle of making a claim with Vizio for this problem and pending their approval I will have a technician come out to fix the problem.
Customer Review: Great TV, Great Price
We bought this TV because CNET rated Vizio as the top budget brand. We have not been disappointed!!! We have the 1080i model (has since been replaced by 1080p). The TV picture is very clear. The screen has no problems with glare, despite being next to a large window. The sound is excellent (and I'm hard of hearing!). The newer models of the tv come with 3 HDMI connections, which is awesome. There are also plenty of other connections available. We have the cable box, dvd, and computer hooked up to the TV, and could hook up at least 3 or 4 more things! Everything interfaces with the TV perfectly, the resolution is excellent. The TV is also very lightweight, which is great for dusting! The TV is very attractive looking and we get lots of compliments on how it looks, and how clear the picture is. I would recommend this to anyone!
