Vizio E480i-B2

Inexpensive. Lots of online services and apps. Four HDMI ports

Oversaturated colors by default. Relatively dim panel throws off effective contrast ratio. Poor shadow detail

You need to expect to make compromises if you want a big HDTV for much less than $1,000. Generally, budget HDTVs usually have a boring or chunky design, no additional features beyond simply working as a display, or a mediocre picture. The Vizio...

this TV is excellent...for the owner that has the apps issue, call Visio...they will remotely download a new firmware...they will occasionally upgrade the firmware, and push it...you'll get a msg on tv...takes 10 min to call them...its true the remote...

none

Value

Turns off randomly - firmware seems buggy - smart apps dont work - no known timeframe for a firmware release (if any will happen)

Clear crisp picture, included wifi

The apps on it are mediocre. But I've bought a roku anyways

Great all around and does everything as advertised

App market is still limited

Good TV, high resolution and good picture. Nice and bright with little light bleed from the top and the bottom

Sound is weak and tinny, not bad for TV speakers but not going to impress anyone. Smart interface can be slow and laggy at times. Wireless connection for internet seems flakey, with direct connection with Ethernet, no issues
