Excellent 4K TV for the money

Verified Purchase:Yes
I looked for quite awhile before purchasing this TV. I wasn't even considering a Vizio because last years model was not very good. Thankfully Best Buy had this on display and I was able to see that the 2017 model was a vast improvement over 2016.
Pros:
*Setup is a breeze, unlike last years models you don't need a smart device to setup.
*Picture quality is excellent. I used the preset calibration settings and I was done.
Looks great at 1080 and watched some 4K Youtube videos and was very happy with it.
No issues with motion blur while watching hockey and I didn't experience any juttering while watching movies. Hit all my wants and needs.
*Sound is very good, no need for me to add a sound bar.
Neutral:
*Be aware that you must use the Vizio Smartcast app in order to make this a "smart TV" no built in apps. This is not an issue for me as the app on my Android phone worked smoothly and it is easier to type on your phone/tablet keyboard than using a remote. Also I use an Amazon Fire Stick for most of my streaming needs.
* No TV tuner, this is not an issue as we either stream or use the cable box. No off air viewing needed.
* Side angle viewing isn't as good as the old LCD screen it replaced but better than most at this size.
Cons:
*No RCA video input so I'll have to get a converter for our aging Wii, not that it gets used much anymore.
*Stand is sturdy but I wish it were a center mount that swiveled like the TV it replaced.
