One of the most frustrating purchases I've made...
on July 25, 2016
Posted by: Ryan
...and I once owned a French-made car. I did some research online before making this purchase, but obviously not enough. If I'd known then what I know now I would have saved money and frustration.
1) I'd like to echo what other 1-star reviews said about the smart phone app. The remote that comes with the TV is wholly inadequate and the smartphone app to control your TV is a fad that I hope dies a quick death, alone and unloved. I have a 10 year old daughter who is begging for a smart phone...I don't need Vizio complicating things by making it impossible to easily control the TV without one.
2) Love watching Amazon Prime? Good, you'll still be able to on your smartphone, but not on this TV. Vizio stopped working with Amazon in 2014. But that's nearly impossible to tell from the packaging or online information...
3) I have a lot of movies on USB drive; who doesn't. There is a USB port on the TV but according to the Help Desk tech it's only for firmware updates. (???) Why would there not be a working USB port to play media on a Smart TV?? This TV has a component input and three HDMI inputs for media and that's it.
The options through their 'smart' services are frankly lacking. This is not a TV for people looking to 'cut the cord' on cable.
Since buying this tv I've had to buy a Roku, USB (SS) to HDMI cables and a longer power cable (enjoy the 4' cable it comes with). I'm starting to wonder if I wouldn't have been better off getting a regular flat screen TV, since nothing that Vizio provided is worth a darn. At least I would have had a decent remote if I'd done that.
I would only recommend this TV to a friend if I was trying to offload that TV and considered his friendship expendable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
