One of the best movies of the last decade.

Great protection for discs

These movies have never looked better.
Steelbook packaging is much more protective of the discs than the sleeves in the regular collection.

Amazing Picture Quality/Value But Buggy Software
on February 28, 2021
Posted by: bradroc
Verified Purchase:Yes
Let's get one thing out of the way... 4K content on this panel looks AMAZING. I can't believe you can get such great picture quality at this low of a price.
I like the design of the tv. The glare isn't too reflective. The user interface is intuitive. Vizio gets so many things right about this tv.
So why can I only give this product 3 stars?
This tv set has a few MAJOR software bugs.
With Covid and all tv manufacturers putting out their first HDMI 2.1 tvs, I absolutely expect and can tolerate minor software issues.
What I can't tolerate is a basic feature like the Luminance setting, resetting itself every time you power up the tv, change inputs/sources, initiate a new HDMI handshake or even just change the channel. It seems like there may be a few other settings that reset themselves as well (Eco Mode for one), although none are as obvious as the Luminance setting. It would also be nice to be able to set the Peak Luminance setting to OFF to properly calibrate for SDR content, but this is less of a huge deal for me.
If Vizio fixes this Luminance bug, I will immediately add another star to the review. And when they fix some of the smaller software issues that almost all other tv manufacturers face with HDMI 2.1 VRR at 120hz and HDMI handshake squirreliness, then this becomes a full FIVE STAR product.
To be clear, I am going to keep this tv and in the meantime, pray to the engineering gods that Vizio eventually releases a firmware fix for the Luminance bug/settings resetting issue.
The fact that such a basic feature has yet to be fixed does concern me, but I've only had positive experiences with Vizio supporting and updating their products, so I'm keeping the faith until they prove me wrong.

Feel every word, every moment, every emotion, elevated. The new VIZIO Elevate 5.1.4 Home Theater Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X plus 18 total speakers with separate tweeters and dual woofers to breathe thrilling life into the latest movies, sports, gaming, and more. Revolutionary auto-rotating Adaptive Height Speakers blast sound off the ceiling, delivering completely immersive overhead surround sound. When rotated forward, these speakers provide a wider soundstage and clearer vocals to standard surround and stereo modes, particularly great for music. Voice Assistant Input lets you use the voice-enabled device you~re already accustomed to (sold separately) right through the sound bar, in addition to convenient Chromecast built-in and Bluetooth streaming. Three HDMI ports connect two 4K devices to the TV with eARC making setup clean and simple.

Great product
on January 29, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
Best soundbar I’ve ever owned or heard.
Sounds great for both music and film/tv/video games.
I have sources going directly into the bar so can’t comment on eARC performance.
Out of the box the bar is very bass heavy but sounds great after turning subwoofer and bass levels way down and using Direct EQ for video sources.
