Most Helpful Customer Reviews
Great
TV for price, I bought this TV at Costco this past weekend, I searched online for
reviews before buying the Vizio M420VT Vizio model but there was not many reviews
on this TV. I took a chance and took one home. So far the TV is working out
great. Enjoy the LED edge backlighting technology because it creates a very
sharp contrast. I did notice there is a slight lean with the screen towards
the floor, so I took the stand off (metal bracket) and added some felt to
the front part where the screen goes.
Overall the TV looks good with crisp images.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DCR and
Ambient Light Sensor don't work correctly, otherwise good TV., I love my toys and this is my main TV. I've experimented significantly
with each of the features and functions. Overall this is a very good set at
a very good price, and the picture is beautiful. However I dock 3 stars for
the following reasons. First, there are some feature limitations I find very
unfortunate. The set has no analog audio output and no speaker outputs,
meaning without a digital amp you are stuck with tiny built-in speakers.
Second, there are a number of bugs and features that do not work properly
(as of firmware v2.05). First, the ambient light sensor creates a super-dim
picture in any lighting environment. You can make it slightly less
"super-dim" by first setting the manual backlight control to max before
enabling it, but it will still be quite dim under most lighting condition.
Also, the DCR function is incompatible with most digital inputs. With it
enabled, the screen fades randomly in and out from completely black during
movies or when attempting to use the menu functions of the BD player. With
DCR disabled and the ambient light sensor disabled, the picture is great,
but then you have to manually adjust the backlight whenever the light in
your room changes. Vizio does not post firmware updates, but it is possible
to update the firmware on the set if you complain long and loudly enough.
Their tech support, while accessible, is pretty terrible. Their suggestion
for any non-working feature is to just turn it off. I wonder what their
solution would be for a non-working TV?
I take my reviews seriously, if you find this review helpful please give it
a thumbs-up.
