Nice Quality Review by Magi

Just bought the Razor 23" TV for a bedroom, and was pleasantly surprised to fine the nice quality of all its packaging. Excellent directions, easy to read large booklet and easy to it understand with pictures. Telephone numbers to get in touch, and just a pleasant all around package. Easy to hook up a usb cable for your pictures in the back and view all your pictures too. I have a dvd, video combo hooked up to it and it was all so easy to do. Would recommend to anyone who likes to watch movies, Tv, in the privacy of the bedroom.

Sweet TV Review by goodgame

I've been looking for the perfect high definition tv in a small form factor. Sure, 720Ps are inexpensive and you can get them anywhere, but I wanted the full blown 1080P. I started looking about 6 months ago, but didn't see anything that really fit my budget or particularly interested me, plus I wanted to wait for the LED backlighting technology to hit the shelves. Local dimming and prolonged life for the win. Then, while at Sam's club, I spotted this bad boy for $300. It lives up to it's name: the profile of this panel is very small, Plus 1080P, especially in a smaller TV like this 23", equals razor sharp clarity.

I use it for my xbox360, and as a computer monitor. It works really well for these applications. I don't subscribe to cable or satellite, nor do I really watch TV at all.

great bang for the buck Review by hobbist

great audio and picture via surround sound and led backlighting instead of the
outgoing-outdated ccfl backlighting with decent 23" size screen from a
reputable television manufacture all at a affordable price that makes this deal
difficult to impossible to beat. the only thing that prevents it from being a perfect 10
is that the remote control is not backlit, other than that this tv set is perfect.

Great TV Review by soupy39

I love this new set! Picture and color are better than most bigger TV's. Vizio TV's are wonderful. I especially like the LED. A great TV for a low price. Great job Vizio!

Great HDTV for Xbox Review by Jason

Well I just purchased this Tv as a Gaming Tv for Xbox 360 and this is absolutely amazing. It is so nice my wife decided to take it and use it for her tv in the bedroom. although it is only 60 Hz it appears with no lag whatsoever. I have since then recommended and showed off this TV to all my friends and they went and got them. I am so satisfied with the new look and design that I am going to purchase the Vizio 110 Blue ray player on Wednesday just to compliment this Tv. I am a nerd when it comes to reviews and I love to look everything up as far as quality and performance. This tv at this price point is amazing and looks so sexy with its thin design. Go out and get one as there are plenty of places that have these on sale.

overall good Review by gsmith

Originally bought to put on top of chest in bedroom but had to mount on wall with full swivel mount due to picture fading out when viewed from any angle other than straight on. Ended up liking wall mount better and picture is great as long as you're not viewing from an angle.

overall, nice tv Review by js

Bought both a samsung LED 23 inch and the vizio to compare picture quality and sound. We have it in our kitchen in a "shadow box" custom made to hold a tv. It sits above the frig which is above eye level. We are very pleased with the angles that you can view without distortion unlike the LCD set. The sound is a bit tinny, but we don't watch movies, etc. in the kitchen. So this is fine. You can adjust the sound by turning off the surround sound. This allows you to add more bass, etc. The color is great. The only negative is we have a very bright room and there is alot of glare reflecting off the "glossy" screen. You don't have that with an LCD. Otherwise, we really like the set.

Awesome TV! Review by MattyZ

I bought this tv after doing a lot of research between brands. The quality and price of VIZIO is something to be recognized. Everything down to the material and build quality of the remote is impressive. I have this tv in my bedroom, perfect size, and soon getting a mount for it. I use it with my Xbox 360 and it looks gorgeous. The SRS volume control is a great feature especially at night, and the surround sound works pretty good as well. Would HIGHLY recommend this TV to anyone. It's light, slim, and it produces awesome whites and deep black colors. For a TV this size theres nothing better. I will deff. be buying another VIZIO product in the future!

Great tv Review by Coolio

I bought this tv for my bedroom and xbox 360 and a little to use as a monitor.
For the price this is was one of the best tv's out there because it has the new
technology of led backlight and the contrast ratio was pretty good for the size
the sound was ok but when you get used to it it was fine. Most of all it was great for my 360. It has full HD wich was really nice for the size and even though it was 60hz there was no lag like they said there would be if you didn't have 120hz. Trust me for this size 60hz is fine. Overall for the price and the new technology and it's size portable to move compared to a biger LCD. This is truly one of vizio and the best 23" tv's you can get.

Good second TV. Review by Josh G.

I purchased this TV at Costco a few days ago, and it has impressed me so far. The picture is excellent. The sound has been good (although the display model at Costco had its speakers blown out so they were crackling, which did make me a bit nervous). I have it in my living room now, holding a place for my VF552XFT which should be arriving in a few days, thanks to Vizio's VIA VIP program. After that I am going to get a wall mount and move it to my kitchen, where I think it will be great as a TV to watch games while cooking, etc.

The only things I really don't care for are the touch buttons on the screen for channel, volume, etc., so I just use the remote, and the other thing is the menu system/setup. It just seems clunky, compared to other TV's I have had before.

Good TV Review by J

For the last three days I've been trying to find a 32'' 1080 TV with a contrast ratio over 10,000. (of course for a reasonable price) Then I came across this 23" LED for cheaper than it is on this site, so I compared everything in the store for about 45 min. & said screw it LED is the "new thing" & no matter what I'm going home with a new TV!
Iv'e had the TV since lastnight & with all these vivid colors I can't even tell the picture is 10" smaller from my last 32". VIZIO GOOD JOB!!
..only complant is for some reason I have to hook my 360 directly to the TV instead of the VCR & getting cable. I can't get any cable) HDMI?

Overall Good TV Review by Spencer

I got this TV from Costco today and its awesome. I bought it for my bedroom and for use with my PS3. The picture is just fantastic and I love it. The only problem I have had is a buzzing echo sound after a few minutes of use on the PS3 with a HDMI cable, but other than that its a great TV.

Great TV Review by gman

Great TV for the Price I paid at BJ's ($299.00). Bought this for my bedroom. Waiting for Digital Set Top Box from Verizon, however, anaolg standard definition reception is exceptionally sharp. Colors are bright and very vibrant. Backlight LED technology creates a bright and clear picture. Can't wait to view digital1080p channels via HDMI input. Highly recommend purchasing this TV.

Great Set! Review by dbsimms63

My wife bought me a VA22LFHDTV10T for Christmas for our bathroom and I was thrilled, until I walked into Costco today and saw the Razor. OMG! What a picture for such a small set. So I picked this up for $299 and am taking the VA22L back to Target. Don't get me wrong, the full 1080p on the VA22L is great, especially for $200, Target sale price, but for an extra $99, I felt the Razor was well worth it, especially for its size and features. I just can't wait for the VF552XVT to come out as it will be gracing my living room and retiring my 2003 Sony 34XBR 800 720p/1080i to my bedroom, at least until it quits working, then another Vizio will be in the room. My daughter saw the Razor and liked it so much, I'm returning the 24" Samsung T240HD that I got her for Christmas as a HDTV/computer monitor, and am getting her a 23" Razor too. I love Vizio, great products at a great price.

Great Choice Review by Dylan

After a very long search for a tv for a bedroom, I bought this one. It is the perfect size. The display is amazing, and the sound is great. Set up was very easy and quick. The tv also works great with my playstation 3.

Great TV And Computer Monitor Review by TonyG

I bought this TV hoping it was a good PC Monitor and was I right! Sharp colors great resolution. Picture on tv is just beautiful the best I have seen. Deep blacks vivid colors without being too strong. I highly recommend this TV to anyone and for those that are looking for a great computer monitor too. VIZIO is the best!
