VIZIO 32" Full HD 1080P Smart TV with DTS Virtual: X, Alexa Support, Google Cast Built-in, Support Bluetooth Headphones (VFD32M-08)

Plays great good picture and good sound

Well, Vizio pulled a fast one on me. Last week I started receiving messages whenever I turned on my 9 year old 32" Vizio, that Netflix and other apps would no longer be supported. This means only satellite TV or old fashioned antennas would result in a picture. Since I cut the cable 2 years ago, this meant the perfectly working TV would be useless to me. I gave it to a friend who wanted it as a computer monitor. Because I have another Vizio and it gives me good sound and good picture for a reasonable price I decided to order this one. Set up was very simple. Adding streaming apps was fast and there are a LOT to chose from; both free and subscription. When I tuned it to a program, I thought the sound was kind of muffled and hard to hear without increasing the volume pretty high. So I went into the settings and under Audio there are 3 options for sound quality. Factory set up was the worst (muffled) option. I chose the option that produced clear, sharp annunciation without having high volume. Because of this, it's the best sound quality of any of my 3 current TVs. Picture is great and almost no lag time when changing programs or channels. I had no trouble with inserting the feet - screws and holes lined up perfectly. I am once again very happy with my Vizio TV. As each older TV bites the dust, each will be replaced with a Vizio.

At a sprawling 32 inches it may seem quite small to many but for me it is absolutely perfect. The TV fits great inside my dresser and it is a saving grace to find a 1080p tv this small as many are only 720p. Ive been enjoying the enhanced picture quality from my old TV and its made my Steam Deck and PS3 look great and works well with both. Ive never had issues with the remote not working and it makes the TV easy to control and you can also use it with the Vizio app on your phone. Ive had some small issues like apps not working but all were fixed by a simple update to the TV. If your in the market for a TV and need it to be small while also looking great and being bright this is your best bet. Ive paired mine with a vision soundbar and its a great experience for both gaming and watching TV.

I bought this TV to go in a home-bar room that we created. I wanted something that wasn't too big as it was going to be going in between shelves that hold liquor. I also knew that this TV would mostly be "background" as most people hanging out in here at our parties are socializing with each other not really paying attention to the TV. This TV was the perfect fit. I have other Vizio brand TVs that I have had for nearly 13 years, so I trust the brand! This TV is super affordable and looks great! For the price and features, I find the picture and sound quality to be very good and do not have any complaints. Don't get me wrong, it is not QLED or OLED picture quality, but it also isn't QLED or OLED price! It is simple to set up and I added Amazon Fire Stick to it to access all of my other apps and programs on it. I bought two of these recently and I am very happy and content with the purchase.

Overall summary: In order to use internet apps you need to accept to data collection terms. Then after that you get sent to the Vizio home screen which can be very slow at times. Sometimes it can take a while to load (this is on a good-excellent Wifi connection). You can set the TV to turn on to your last used input, but you cannot set it specifically. It has 2 HDMI inputs, a Digital out, antenna, and a usb input. The USB does not read your video files on a flash drive if you were hoping to do that. The viewing angle isn't great from below, so it's best to be at the same height or above. Speakers are not great and not terrible. Below I'll list the pros and cons that I've seen so far. Cons - UI: - The home screen will often start with a full screen advertisement. - If you leave the TV on at the home screen, it will automatically play something at full screen. This can be bad if you're worried about a data cap. - You start the navigation on the home screen with the usual advertisements at the top. You have the other menus on the left but you have to move down from the top advertisements before you can navigate there. - Sometimes slow navigating or loading the home menu. I assume this is reliant on your internet connection so this can vary. Audio: - The speakers sound a bit cheap. I feel it's too loud on volume 1. I didn't test past volume 8 and it can go well past that. Antenna: - Say you're watching broadcast TV. For example you press channel 9, it brings up a keypad on screen, and it takes around 7 seconds to change to that channel. Pressing enter after hitting '9' just inputs the number highlighted on the keypad. You have to navigate down to press OK to goto that channel. - If you are getting a bad signal, an overlay on the screen says you're getting a bad signal and you can press up or down to change the channel. This can happen even when you can see and hear the show you're watching just fine. Video: - Viewing from 10-20 degrees below the tv can look too dark. However there are lots of video settings to compensate. Pros - Audio: - Has bluetooth audio that works well. Sometimes when you pair your headphones the tv will lag to compensate for delay. - Has settings to delay audio. - Adaptive audio control. - Settings to increase voices. However I haven't thoroughly tested this. Video: - Has a surprising amount of video settings. HDR color settings, being able to set individual RGB values, backlight, black control, game mode, pixel tuning, sharpness tuning. Seems feature complete in that regard. Other- - Has a restart tv function - Shows your wifi signal strength and appropriate info - No Steam Link or Twitch app - Has Plex. But no Jellyfin. - No ethernet port - Cheap remote - Has a favorite channels menu - Vizio offers alot of internet channels without having to make an account - Switching inputs to a PS4 for example will turn it on. Can disable this. Also your remote can navigate through the ps4
