 Exceptional value December 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is my second Vizio set. We were so happy with our first set, Vizio was always a contender when we looked for a second HDTV. This set comes with picture in picture, which was a requirement for me. Visio appear to be the only manufacturer that supplies this option in sets in the price range. We are very happy with our selection. And of course the fact that the set comes with one year "in home" warranty makes this a hands down winner! Excellent picture, great contrast. I definitely recommend this tv.
 solid picture November 21, 2008

The HD picture on this set is very good (and I have only seen 1080i and 720p so far). Do not be fooled by the price. The SD DVD progressive scan picture (480p) is also quite good. Regular SD (480i) is pretty ho-hum. In fact, if you have a sizable tube and are not planning on upgrading to HD service (although major networks are free with an antenna and look great), you might as well hold off. This is the case for any HD LCD. They are designed for HD and all of them just look so-so with standard definition.
The sound is also solid, very impressive for a flat panel. It also has ample inputs, although the ones on the underside are a pain to hook stuff up to (prepare to be cranking your head sideways to see just where the HDMI plugs in).
The remote is the weakest point of the set. It has a layout that in not intuitive. I still keep looking for the 'menu' button to play with the picture and features forgetting that you have to press the orange 'V' in the middle.
All around though, the set is a good value. If Sony or Samsung are not in your budget, you will not be disappointed by this Vizio. One more thing; I think the 120hz feature is a fad, at least for films. I haven't seen it for video games, but for movies it just doesn't look right. Some blur is natural. So, don't be lured away by that as it is a feature I would rarely have used anyway.
Better than than the VU - Tuner Tips August 31, 2008
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This is a better than average set. The feature set is excellent 4xHDMI etc.
Compared to the VU42 (which we had also), this has a nicer picture and much more control through the menus for Picture and Sound tweaking.
The HDMI worked perfectly with our laptops and good screen controls allows you to adjust margins to use the full screen.
I've had many HD sets over the years, for the money this is a good deal.
Tuner Tip: In our area, Cable doesn't scramble many digital channels, but many are just sound, duplicates or unwanted. This set seems to have a cap of 500+ channels, because while we could tune in more channels, The Channel skip did not show them. But this set has "Partial channel search", which allowed us to manually seek ranges of channels and customize the channels the way we wanted. The VU did not have this and forced us to flip through 50 or so "bad" channels with no way to remove them.
