tech support/performance Review by casper51

I shopped for the 47" (apps) for about 2mos. waiting to get the best deal. I did, $1075 w/shipping on e-bay. (patience) This is my 3rd flat screen and by far the very best is Vizio. It is rare to have a problem with this set but after continued nightmares from other "tech-support" sights, (i.e.Dish,Att,etc) I find it very refreshing to deal with Vizios' tech support. They are very helpful, explain things clearly, don't rush you, nor make you feel like its a dumb question you are asking. If they don't have the answer right away, I found they take your number, research the problem, then call you back with the solution to your problem. Besides all that, the quality of this set is far superior to any others I've seen at the stores.

Impressed to say the least. Review by Jeff

Shopped for over a year., finally pulled the trigger. Nothing out there compares to this set , specs-vs-price point.. Ordered thru Sams Club ,had delivered to home , UPS.
Box was pretty much destroyed , thought for sure TV would be in pieces too. To my relief , no visible damage and installation and start-up went without flaw ! Whew !
Initial thought was ... and bullet proof too !

Instructions and TV inputs well laid out. Pretty much plug and play with any components arrangement. Sound is excellent but went ahead and ordered the Vizio Soundbar with Sub anyway..turned out those are very hard to find right now.

Highly recommend this set !

Truly Awesome Machine! Review by coeschger

Our 5-year old DLP TV finally gave up the ghost, so we did a lot of shopping and researching for a replacement. We finally settled on the Vizio XVT472SV, even though it didn't quite match the apparent picture quality of other showroom sets. Quite simply, we are simply blown away by the picture, the ease of setup, and the overall quality of this TV! It is absolutely true what many say about the showroom images; once in our house and slightly calibrated, the picture quality is beyond compare. Picture quality is so sharp that sometimes I'm not sure if I'm seeing real people or computer-generated images! In my mind, you cannot find another HDTV with this level of quality at such a staggeringly low price!

Setup was a breeze. Attaching the DirecTV receiver and BluRay player were easy as well; from box to up and running in under 30 minutes. The remote is fantastic; the QWERTY keyboard is a nice addition. It would be nice if it were illuminated, though. Built-in Wi-Fi is fantastic; I connected to my wireless network in less than 1 minute.

The VIA Internet apps are a nice addition, although we really only use Netflix's streaming video. The addition of Pandora would be great.

The bottom line: If you are in the market for a new HDTV, the Vizio XVT472SV is a must-have!

Outstanding Visual Experience! Review by phanthom

This, after a two year search for the perfect television for our home, was my purchase. I am constantly amazed at the quality of this television on a daily basis. had a few problems initially setting it up. but, with a new DVR supplied by my cable co, we are rolling along beautifully.I truly recommend the purchase (if within your budget) of a blu-ray player. when I purchased mine I made sure I purchased one with internet capabilities. WOW. now i get free music with PANDORA, order movies fron NETFLIX, also has a range of other options as well. (netflix is an additional 8.99 a month).but well worth it if you watch a lot of movies, and you will, if you did"nt before this tv purchase. the cost of netflix is no more the cost of a few late fees on movies you rent at the movie rental stores. in short beautiful television for the price you can"t beat it. I looked at all the big screens out there this was by far the best one for the money. costco for $1200.00. it lets you do an array of calibrations to optimize the full range of high def capabilities. but the blu-ray player with a regular dvd is awesome, a blu-ray disc,FORGET ABOUT IT, it"s unbelievable. highly recommend this set.

AWESOME TV! Review by caddock

Had my 47"(without the apps) for about a month now and I have to say I am really impressed with this unit. For the longest time I was set on purchasing a Panasonic Plasma for my next TV, but seeing this Vizio next to the Panasonic at my local Sam's Club. I switched! The picture is beautiful(amazing brightness with vivid colors), the set-up is tremendously easy, the sound is not bad either. My surround sound makes it that much more enjoyable. My PS3 games look absolutely spectacular, as well as, my Blu-Rays and DishHD. I love the PIP(Picture-in-Picture) feature and the remote capability. Out of all the televisions I have purchased over the years, I've finally got the one that will control my surround sound and its features. My wife was a little skeptical at first because of the low price(she was thinking cheaper quality), but once I got it home, set it up, and had the HD going, she was blown away to say the least. Now she wants to put the 47" in our bedroom and get the 55" for the living room. I'm down with that. I strongly recommend this TV just as I strongly recommend the Vizio brand. Thanks Vizio, and keep pushing forward.

Amazed Review by Eric

I have been shopping for a year for a flat panel TV, everything from LCD to Plasma, 42inch to 65 inch, Samsung, Sony, etc (I have owned mostly Sony's in the past) and knew the moment I saw this one, that it was exactly what I wanted. Brought it home, had it up and running in a matter of minutes and was amazed at the picture quality and sound. Many of the scenes actually appear as almost 3D. I bought this one at Sam's Club and it was an amazing price as well. Time will tell, but so far this is the best value for the money anywhere in the market.

Top of the line. Review by Bill

My wife and I purchased this TV at Costco yesterday and are very happy with the picture character, versatility, and craftsmanship it embodies. As a professional videographer shooting videos in HD, I want my work to be displayed with the highest possible picture quality so that every detail and color captured by my expensive professional HD camera will be reproduced faithfully. This TV fits the bill. My latest project involves shooting beautiful nature landscapes in Southern Utah and this 47 inch Vizio model's picture is so clean and clear, with vivid colors so true-to-life, that I have to honestly say watching my videos on it simulates the actual experience of really being there.

The sound quality of this model is also excellent at reproducing the wide spectrum of natural sound effects featured in my videos.

After searching for over a month to come up with The Best HD TV to showcase my work, I feel I have succeeded by choosing this Vizio Flat Panel HDTV over the others available. I am very pleased!

i'm in love !! Review by jazzy g

Me and my guy picked up my tv right in time for the super bowl ! I'm the proud owner of a 32" inch (my first vizio) and DEMANDED that my true big screen would be one too !!! put the 32" in mybedroom and it didn't take my guy more that 20 minutes to get the 47" out of the box and proudly sitting on my mantle in the living room! the best thing it doesn't over power the room and just adds to it...! had to have a VIZIO after seeing the commerical about it being LT TV!!
