I had recently purchased a Samsung LED-LCD 42 inch for my living room which is a great TV. I wanted one smaller for the bedroom and got this. Quite disappointing on all fronts. The packaging was extremely poor and I don’t know if something was wrong with the set because of that but whatever the reason, I returned it. Not worth the money. Will continue to do research for a small set for the bedroom.

This TV has a HUGE power plug that sticks out of the wall 4″ defeating the purpose of a razor thin TV. The plug is so large that you cannot mount the TV in front of it to hide it. It ends up being a big rectangular box coming perpendicilar out of your receptacle. To add more visual distraction there are large white letters saying VIZIO on it so it stands out even more! You’ll see what I mean when you unpack it -I thought it was a mistake when I saw it. The TV itself has a nice, slim profile, but is useless with this type of plug. Along with the other review on this page, the sound is really TIN-ny. Sounds like it’s in a can. I cannot recommend this TV unfortunately.

Revised the review, returned the item back to Costco because it suffers from back-light bleeding both the left and right edges. This set also utilize edge-lit LED backlighting, as opposed to local-dimming technology. Most of the image quality advantages often associated with LED backlighting–like deep blacks–are only available on local-dimming displays, so we don’t expect radically better performance than standard (CCFL-backlit) LCD displays. So in other words not much you can do with deeper blacks. My issue was with even the logo was washed out. VIZIO was the first for me and the last. I ended up with DYNEX DX-L24-10A even though this isn’t a LED the screen is 24″ to 24″ (25″)and uses less power. There is more inputs and suppose to have Ethernet connection. The panel not matted you can almost see yourself in there but with that though the image is deeper in black and contrast is right on par.

I ordered this from Costco online ($299 shipped). It is a great monitor/tv that has some shortfalls. I have this hooked up to a Neoflex LCD Stand that allows this stand to elevate, rotate and flip.
Pros:
-The video is incredible, 1080p and it shows.
-Great PC monitor that displays text well.
-Styling is great! Very Apple-like.
-Good amount of AV/Comp/HDMI connections in back.
-Better than any other monitor in $300 price range.
-Has Optical Audio Out (Which I haven’t used yet)
Cons:
-The audio is like the other reviewers say, “tinny”. It’s really bad audio, but I have mine hooked up to PC speakers.
-Channel surfing is very slow, 1-1.5 seconds between channel changes.
-Some quirky quality control issues:
– Random loss of video signal when hooked to Macbook. Easily solved by turning On/Off. Has happened twice in last 2 days. Not sure what the problem is yet.
– Had an issue where Mac could not connect properly to HDMI-2, but fine on HDMI-1.
-Remote is “ehhh”, not great.
Advise:
This screen resolution is awesome, the speakers suck. Buy a NeoFlex LCD Stand from Amazon to attach to the VESA mount on back. Also the stand has screws that can be removed. I would recommend this to anyone willing to compromise on speakers (Apple Monitors don’t have speakers).

I never own vizio before, mostly only go for know brand. But I head good review and is led and price is not too high.
Prior this i own several other monitor like hp 2505m and samsung 23″ led. both are good monitor but suffer very poor input lag. This other hand suffer none, i try pes 2010 and nba 2k10 in high setting, almost no lag, while other 2 monitor previous i own suffer lag, this is the same game hardware and windows 7 professional set up.
The design i must gave this one higher than even samsung led one, the build quality of this one is bit better and a bit nicer look. I like that has metal edge. Samsung one lack many thing, no speakers and no tuner, while vizio have both and about similar slim design.
This one do had glossy screen, might be pro or cons for some people. I like glossy screen, this one isn’t too heavy gloss like hp, the led backlight make nicer addtional of light without too much extra of power.
This is not local dimm led unlike the big 55″ counsin. But does has smart light sensor that samsung led monitor don’t had.
The remote that come is very sleeck glossy design, is small suitable for me. I like the fact that i can plug optical sound from my logitech z680 to the monitor and work great, the speaker plug component audio cable to my pc.
The major cons of this monitor, doesn’t come with any cables except its own adapter. no hdmi, or vga or even antenna.
This tv has no DVI input, but i get to work with hdmi to dvi pc input. Older game might not detect 1600×1200 in warcraft 3. but all new game i try no problem with 1080p.
This tv actually produce better picture (with adjustment) than hp or samsung, out of the box is poor pictue, many setting got turn off, you need to turn those on. I like the fact i can use my remote to control monitor menu, samsung led one is very hard to control the menu with only touch button.
The build in speaker of this tv is very good, crip sound, only down size no bass like most tv anyway. Just get some decent speaker, suggest you grab one that has optical out.
You can’t mount this tv out of the box, and can’t adjust height or swivel, if you are tall person you might need something to stand up this tv. Make sure you register warrantly thought vizio or might not get warrantly at all.
Vizio did make home run in this slim size led tv that suitable for both tv and monitor user. I am happy buyer as now, if you had amex card make sure use it cause you never know what happend after 1 year.
