So far so good but...

I picked this TV up today. Set up went fairly smoothly but several hours later it's telling me it can't tell what is in the HDMI ports. I used brand new cables but I swapped them out for the ones that worked fine with the old TV and the TV still has issues. I wiggle the cord, any of the cords, and it suddenly sees the connection so I don't think it's the cords. I'm a bit worried that all three of the HDMI ports are loose. I really don't want to have to take this thing down and drag it back to the store so I'm going to give it a bit more time but... I'm worried now. Other than that it seems to work ok. It picked up more channels from our antennas in the attic than our last set did so that's a perk. There's a good selection of free channels to watch as well. It's iffy with our Spectrum Cable box via the HDMI port and I can't see a Spectrum app as an option. I'm looking to see if I can cast stuff from the Spectrum app to the TV. (I REALLY DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO RETURN IT!) It says it can't download anything over the wired connection but we have no issues with streaming so... I think it isn't being honest about that. The image quality is fine for our living room but the text on the on screen menus could be larger. We have to get up and stand about five feet in front of the set to read that stuff. We'll see how it goes...
I'm quite surprised at the value and quality of this 2020 Vizio V Series. After trying 3 other TVs, including a Samsung TU7000, a Sony 750H and a Sony 900H, I'd say this has them all beat. The first two because they were junk and had crummy picture quality. Beats out the Sony 900H because the picture is just as good for normal viewing, and while the operating system isn't anywhere near as good as Android, it's only half the price, so kudos to Vizio. I think my TV search has ended for now and when I upgrade again, I'll definitely consider Vizio again.
We are not experts on TVs, so take this review with a grain of salt. We do love the TV. We do not know how to use it yet, but it pretty much does everything on it's own. We are very pleased. Great picture quality and works well with our Wifi and internet service that is sub-standard. We live out in the country. It automatically changes the speaker system on my computer, but now that I figured out how to switch it back, that no longer is a problem.
I bought another brand of 4K TV and the picture was horrible. The people looked like they were dead and the color was washed out. I returned it immediately and went back to what I know, I have two other VIZIO's. The picture is fabulous, the color is rich. I will continue to purchase VIZIO.
Wife wanted to upgrade from our previous TV. Great pick-up on this Vizio TV. Happy wife, happy life. You won't be disappointed if you decide on this TV!!
