4Not bad, not great
By MinneMan
Unboxing it, I was impressed by the construction and design. I didn't see evidence of cutting corners to keep price down.Turning it on, I wasn't impressed by the picture at all. It was dim and had too much contrast and not enough gradation of tones. None of the presets were useable so I had tailor a custom setup. It took some messing around with the settings over a couple of days to get a picture I could be satisfied with. The automatic backlighting feature, which adjusts the brightness to the room's ambient lighting, was getting in the way so I had to disable it.Comparing it with two other flat screens TV's I have (non-LED), I think this one is the least bright and the least able to finely render the delicate color shading of skin tones. It also seems to have an odd color palette on solid tone graphics. I have two computer monitors that are LED and are they're bright and render color very well, so I don't blame the picture deficiency on being LED design.To get it bright enough for my needs, it lost some of the depth of the blacks, but it's not bad in that regard. The image is sharp enough to read very small text across the room. Viewing angle is superb in all directions. The image doesn't change in appearance as you move from side to side.The sound is decent. You won't need an add on sound system unless you want to hear bass. The SRS surround simulator is interesting. It can over-exaggerate the spread of the sound sometimes, but it does help on most content. The feature that automatically rides the volume for you is pretty useful.The remote is quite nice and was easy for me to learn, although I don't need it. The thin frame case is simple and elegant. The base is very stable. The screen is not very anti-glare and I can see reflections from windows and lamps pretty clearly when the unit is turned off. Not a big issue when it's on.It has 2 HDMI inputs along with the older style analog inputs. For those adding a sound system, it has an optical output (fixed volume) and a pair of RCA outputs (selectable fixed or variable volume).All things considered, it's a good value. It seems well made. If you're looking for a knockout picture or wanting to use it in a very bright room, maybe there are better choices out there. If I weren't very tightly constrained by the space I have to fit a TV into, I probably would have returned it for a 40", of which there seem to be a lot more to choose from.

4Considered returning but going to keep
By Sigglet
Purchased this for our bedroom...finally ready to upgrade from an ancient, miniscule television.Despite only having 1 review at the time of purchase, I selected this model based upon size-to-cost, Vizio's reputation, product specs. and because it has a digital/optical audio out. Surprizingly, and probably to the disappointment of many who later buy sound bars/systems, many Samsungs/LGs around this size/price range do not have a digital out. That's idiotic even for low end systems.Packaging was excellent. (Though if you have delivery concerns re: security/theft note it ships in a Vizio box - people are going to know it's a brand new flat screen. I arrived home to it just sitting in my common entranceway.)Set-up is straightforward and super-fast. Remote is well-built but nothing special. Sound is suffcient for casual viewing, but for gaming or an immersive movie watching experiance you'll need to upgrade. (That's true of almost all internal TV speakers.) Sound maintains well at high volumes.Black levels are quite good for such an inexpensive TV. Level of detail is great and I haven't noticed any artifacts, trails, etc. BUT, as other reviewers noted, there is a brightness issue with this unit - noticed it right away. Menu options are basic and, because there is no real backlight control, it doesn't seem changing settings would remedy the problem. I spent a couple of days going back and forth, trying to decide whether I should return this TV - it's just nowhere near as bright as the 46" Samsung LCD in my living room. But because we are using it in the bedroom, typically with the lights low or off, I've decided to keep it. It's a good quality unit at an excellent price, and other than the backlight issue, delivers in every way.

5Works great easy set up
By Greta J Stager
We got this as a gift for my 89 year old grandmotherSo we did not want something to complicated but we wanted the qualityThis was a perfect combination. Just an FYI make sure you remove the auto dim or you wonder why it doesn't look as bright as it should. We figured this out and it made the tv pop.
