Like sitting on the front row at the movies.
This is not a TV, it is an experience. I have another major brand that is two years old and the difference in the picture quality and features from it to this TV is no less than amazing. We don't have reliable internet in our rural area so I can't use the smart cast or other features. I connect it to DIRECTV and the features are fantastic. The colors and detail are unbelievable. It is not easy to connect and program but once it is up and going it is worth the effort. The sound could be better, I have it connected to a sound bar so that is not a problem. I use closed captioning most of the time and due to the size of the viewing area the captioning is not so distracting to other viewers. I would also like to see several more USB and HDML outlets but that is not a game changer.

Very unfortunate experience
Worst TV ever. Every time I want to stream YouTube or videos from my phone it won't work. Complete waste of money! I can't even use my TV! I highly recommend looking into another item as this TV has caused problems since I got it. In multiple occasions when I use apps like HBO, Netflix, or the freeTV service it provides, the only thing that will show is a black screen! I have never written a review before on Walmart but I would like to save anyone else the trouble than to purchase this item.

    I had this tv for two months then lines started showing up and after having it for only 5 months I got to turn it on and the tv was grey with multiple lines thankfully Vizio did have a warranty so we'll be able to get a new one but it's that's not something you want to do then do NOT waste time buying this tv

    Not Good Quality
    I have had this for almost 1 year and the screen is now flickering on the bottom half. Until this, I havent had any major issues, just small inconveniences such as having ro reconnect to internet and a reset once. I have contacted Vizio regarding screen issue and waiting on a response as its still a few days before warranty expires. I would ezpect a tv to last a lot longer than a year before issues develop.

    Brilliant picture, fantastic l!
    fantastic picture and insanely good price considering the picture and features. not a fan of the video set up and registration process compared to when I set up the one in my master bedroom which is the same TV just an older version from 2 years ago. I like the upgraded remote and think most people with smartphones will love the setup process. I'm just a little old school. quickly set up with my streaming device, though average users can happy use onboard apps from the app store.

    WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TV
    Very disappointed in this TV. Sound is terrible. Need to turn volume high to hear it and then it's such a tinny sound it's difficult to listen to. Would not recommend. Not sure if company would replace but hope they do. I've always bought Vizio before.

    Not great wont buy again, and already shopping for
    Worked fine for a few months… not the SmartCast home page takes a long time to load if it does at all without having to be restarted. It doesnt always play apps and has to reboot often. Sometimes the screen goes black but continues to play the sounds from the show aswell.

    Cheap price point, not meant to last!!
    I’ve had 2 of the same TV’s in the last year. The first tv stopped working after a few months, the display was not operable. Returned for a tv of the same brand size and series, it’s lasted about 6-8 month and have already developed lines across the tv so it’ll die any day now.

    Beware; Smartcast OS is Bloatware
    So far so good. It starts up easily enough. However, the Smartcast Operating System bloats the menu with dozens and dozens of proprientary and partnership apps that seem to slow down performance greatly. Apps that our family has zero intention of ever using. Vizio attempts a 'slight-of-hand' claim that "everything is managed online" and this glut of data isn't kept on the TV. But all THAT means is that this slowdown is eminating from the TV drawing down more unneccasary data whenever it's being used, choking at the speed of our internet service. For those of you who don't know this; such bloatware is how products like pre-installed laptops and this Vizio TV are delivered to the market at scale for rock bottom prices. They compensate the actual market value of the devices by bundling lucrative contracts with other service developers. The Smartcast OS does not allow the user to delete any of these unwanted apps.

    Buyer Beware!!!!
    I bought this TV in June 2022 and already has streaks and lines running through it with a purple tint. It's crazy to pay this much for something and not even last 1 year. My advice “buyer beware “!

    Do not buy .
    Do not buy. It worked fine after a couple of months, and that was it. The screen goes dark, and it glitches. So the worst TV ever. We go to two same Visio, And they are both acting up. I wish I could give it a zero star.

    Great television for the price point!
    The Vizio 65” television was a great purchase. We have had multiple Vizio sets over the years and they seem to never disappoint us! The screen looks amazing and the colors are perfect! My son loves the graphics too, he's a gamer so graphic quality is a must! The Vizio sound bar connection was easy and clean! Also, having one remote control to do everything was nice! It controls the Apple TV, the sound bar and you can also navigate through the PS5 console! What a great buy!
