The XVT3 stands among the best LCDs we've tested in the crucial areas of black level and color, and its matte screen--rare among high-end LEDs today--means superior bright-room performance compared with just about anything available… If you're in the market for a high-end LED-based LCD, and you don't care about 3D, the Vizio XVT3SV series deserves a serious look.

Sony: "Not long ago, the Walkman was as ubiquitous as the iPod is today, and Sony dominated the market for TVs, cameras, video recorders, and many other consumer electronics. But as Sony became a huge conglomerate with film and music divisions, it lost leadership in many of its core product lines... As a result, faster-moving competitors like LG, Samsung, Vizio, Apple... have outpaced this old-school innovator."

- VIZIO’s XVT™ Series HDTVs use Full Array TruLED™ LCD technology for significant performance advantages over competitors’ sets, with superior uniformity, better off-angle viewing and deeper blacks
 
- New sets have increased zones of Smart Dimming™ for greater intelligent control plus the ability to reduce LED brightness to enable pure black
 
- XVT553SV, XVT473SV and XVT423AV achieve unprecedented 10,000,000:1 contrast ratios
 
-XVT323SV LED TV is recognized as industry’s best featured 32” HDTV
 
- All XVT models feature VIZIO Internet Apps™, with integral Dual Band 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless networking and Bluetooth/IR remote with slide out QWERTY keypad
 
-VIZIO provides seamless state-of-the-art wireless Internet access through integral Dual Band 802.11n Wi-Fi, unlike competitive sets that require the purchase of external adaptors
 
- VIZIO’s business benefits from a leadership position in advanced technologies such as LED LCD HDTVs
