Good but not perfect

I bought this three days ago, I had some trouble setting it up with my PS5. Works on HDMI 1 and 2 but not 3 or 4. Features are great and the setting details are great. Just wish there was a simple way to know what does what. There is blooming on some white text but nothing major and doesn’t effect the picture. Still waiting on Vizio to activate HDMI 2.1 and the features that come with that but overall a solid buy and looking forward to the updates.
I don’t have too much to say since I unboxed it a few days ago. Although it doesn’t have an App Store, it has a ton of apps and the navigation is speedy with the processor. Any apps that it doesn’t include like HBO Max can be Airplayed/cast from your phone. I upgraded from a regular LED 1080p tv and the colors and contrast are superior in every way. We had an Apple TV device to stream quality shows, but we were able to ditch it because this TV has a bunch of apps that stream 4K Dolby Vision etc. including a version of the Apple TV app. I had to choose between this and an OLED which were priced similarly, and although this tv doesn’t have true blacks like an OLED, it gets pretty darn close. What really makes it worth it for me is the brightness that allows the colors to pop. We got the 75” which has 480 local dimming zones. It compares to the higher end Samsung QLED (Q80T) so it’s a great deal for the price. We have a large window in the room and the Christmas tree lights, and we don’t notice the reflections at all. Only complication so far is we had to adjust the native audio settings since eArc setting wasn’t enabled after plugging in our sound bar. The image quality is wonderful and the TV does an excellent job upscaling 1080p and less resolutions. I was surprised how good Zelda BOTW looked on the TV despite being under 1080p resolution on switch. Actually all my switch games look so good on this TV. Highly recommended.
Beautiful, bright picture that allows HDR to pop. Had this TV for a year and I can honestly say I'm glad I saved the money instead of buying OLED.
Some issues have arisen over AirPlay casting early on, but that has largely been resolved with firmware updates. Minor lags in changing inputs and navigating menus are annoying. SmartCast has a ways to go to compete with the likes of Roku or Apple TV, but it's okay.
