This review is from: Vizio VW26LHDTV20F 26 in 1080P HDTV Wide Screen LCD TV (Electronics)

I just purchased this TV from a local vendor, just to use in a bedroom (so I didn't need a huge size). I admit, I was worried about the quality of an unknown brand (unknown to me, at least), especially since the price was great. But as soon as I hooked it up (easy!), I discovered that the picture quality is excellent, the sound is superb, and the channel capability exceeds my much-larger plasma in the living room (a different manufacturer)--this TV detects channels outside my viewing area, allowing me to see NBC, for instance, from all the surrounding cities. It simply assigns extra channels these "-x" numbers. For example, I have 10 or 11 channel 26's, so if I click on "26" on the remote, I go to channel 26-1. Then when I click the channel up key, it goes to 26-2, 26-3, and so forth, showing me all the channels from Baltimore, DC, and even Richmond to the south--something my Tivo box doesn't do (since it can't assign more than one channel 26), my other analogs don't do, and neither does my big plasma TV do this. So it's just nice to see the channels that the cable company offers, if you have the capability to assign multiple channels to the same number. And the TV did it automatically at that. :)

In all, it's got great sound, excellent picture quality, and digital receiving, so it really is a great buy all around.

I purchased one of these from a local walmart to replace my fading SDTV(CRT). i was a bit apprehensive at such a quantum leap(going from a tube TV straight into a LCD HDTV). The tv has great picture, good simulated surround from the speakers; and is pretty user friendly. (though the remote I got with it doesn't match what the actual TV can do, as my remote has no "OK" button, but some of the features require the use of an OK button.)

Another drawback to this TV is it's lack of outputs, for my PS3 I had to leave the A/V connectors hooked up to my surround sound and then hooked up HDMI to the TV and then split the signal VIA the ps3's options. This was very annoying as I wanted the sound to come from both the TV and the surround system; instead of just one or the other.

Other than that, I'm very happy with the TV.

I purchased this tv for my bedroom about 2 months ago and it works great. I have my computer pluged into it and i have my xbox playing hd threw it. In my house every room we have a hd vizio in it just a gret quality tv for a great price. But dont buy it thinking it has pip( picture in picture) like i did. That got me very mad, evedently this tv doesnt have all the great feateres the bigger vizios have, like the one in my front room. Still great tv great price.
