Great Buy

Got this TV during black friday. Was an open box item and had the 50% off coupon. The TV overall is decent and picture quality isn't too bad either. Setup was easy but did take quite a bit of time. The remote is very basic so you have to use a bit of intuition to figure out some of the symbols. The chromecast feature actually comes in handy at times and is easy to use once you get it set up. Sound is okay...sometimes it depends on what I'm watching. I haven't had a chance to see the full benefit of the 4K, but since this is in my bedroom, it's not a big deal. This is definitely not my usual Samsung, but the price was too good to pass up. The only downside is the lack of a cable connection. I am a cord cutter and this would have been an issue but luckily I have a Tablo connected to my modem so I don't need to have my antenna plugged directly into the TV. For other cord cutters who don't have this set up, this TV is NOT for you.

good idea but not so good product

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this for the surface. Everything was great until I noticed that when I typed, there would be repeated letters. Seems as though the keys were sticking. So had to return. Since I didn't keep the surface, there was no need to try another keyboard.

yay for couplers

Needed something to extend the connection from my TV to Wii. Instead of buying the expensive long cord that they sale, bought the couplers and attached to cables I already own and it did the trick. Now I have no wires showing in the family room. Woohoo!

Need to watch again

This movie is defnitely not for those that can't follow a complicated plot. But for those that can, this is a must see. I still haven't figured out what I believe to be true...i keep flipping back and forth. Either way, it was a great movie and one that I can watch over and over and notice something different each time.
What's great about it: great plot/story
I would recommend this to a friend!

Glad I didn't believe the reviews

I am perfectly happy with the armband. Yes, it was hard for me to get my iPod in the case, but then I realized "oh i have a 2nd gen and this is for a 4th gen". The 4th gen is probably skinnier. Anyway, after I struggled to get my iPod in, it fit snug and perfect. The armband fits nice and firm on my arm without slipping or moving around. Perfect for my workout. The controls are easy to use; I did not have any problems adjusting the volume or changing the song during my run. Two drawbacks: 1) velcro is very tough, so you might struggle a bit to get the right fit and 2) if you sweat a lot, this thing gets drenched. But it dries quickly. I suggest once you get the fit right, don't mess with the velcro.
What's great about it: snug fit, easy access to controls, nice look
What's not so great: hard to get fit right
I would recommend this to a friend!

How many HDMI inputs are there, and audio video inputs? Also what does Chromecast mean? Is this A-Reliable TV, also do you have very many returns on this version . How long will it be on sale I would like to purchase it before it goes off sale. Thanks.

There are 4 HDMI inputs (3 on the back/bottom of TV and 1 on the side). There are the standard audit/video inputs. Chromecast is a device that you use to "mirror" what is on your tablet/phone directly to the TV. These are usually sold separately, but the Vizio has it built in. This was my first time buying a Vizio, but my sister has had one for years and not many issues. Hope that helps.
