Beats previous front page deal of $480 from Costco a year ago.
Free pick up / curbside delivery
I didn't post this for no reason. I have this exact deal from the prior years Costco front page deal. I paid $480 and had it delivered free. It's been in my living room and it's great especially for the price. There is a voice remote for those interested in the software and Apple airplay. It's very responsive - most people complain about it being laggy but they don't realize you have to turn off the energy saving feature of the tv. It has local dimming and eArc which I set on low and use. The picture quality is no OLED but I have no problems with it at any time of the day I turn the brightness up all the way but keep other settings at 50. Have been watching the World Cup in 4k and it's awesome. We don't watch tv a ton and technology is always moving so quickly so this is great for us but may not be for you. For now, until 4k becomes the standard for tv channels etc - this will suffice. Good luck!

Hisense u6h shows better reviews, mainly better brightness and upscaling from 480p/720p/1080p than this Vizio.. Also Hisense has Google TV OS, so opening YouTube app takes 2-3s, whereas this Vizio's SmartCast OS takes 9s. https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/hisense/u6h

Not own Vizio smart TV....
I have a Vizio now, not a great OS. Had to plug a Roku in to get anything out of it beyond a couple of select apps. Maybe that's changed now, but in general, would say it's worse than Samsung's interface.
I got this model during last years BF deal for the same price. It's the lowest end of Vizio and it shows. Terribly slow interface and apps are lacking so I really regret purchasing it. Bought it for a vacation home figuring we don't need anything robust but in hindsight it's not the best choice. You definitely need an external smart device like Roku or Apple TV to make this tv useable. Also currently waiting for Vizio to replace it after developing major vertical lines in the picture. I bought 2 other cheap Hisense Rokus and they are excellent for the money. No more Vizios for me.

Bought this tv several months ago. Was looking for a budget tv for casual viewing in the family room... And I agree, picture quality is not very good. Seems more like 1080p than 4k tbh. However, I do like the interface a lot more than the Roku interface.
I pick up Vizios for free on FB marketplace all the time. So many dead within a few years. Replace a few capacitors and reflow solder on the boards and get another few years until it breaks again.

Could be worse....this TV is actually better than the Elements and Westinghouse brands.
To get faster interface, just attach TV stream they had for 15 bucks. works great.
So what is going on the TV world. Why does a 1500 dollar TV look better than 500 tv.
The answer is whites and viewing angle. When you compare two TV at the store, look at whites. more so with white lettering. And when you poke your head up and down do you see like the screen is getting darker. I do not mean wide angles...just like 20 degrees.
Pure whites. Great contrast (no IPS screens)...and finally...no DSE....
With solid whites and great contrast...you get PUNCH in the tv.
Did TV look better years ago for the same price...yes they did. New models did not get better...in many cases they are cheaper. Samsungs use to have Samsung panels...not any more.
TV technology sucks. And LED suck. OLED are great..but expensive.
Microled TV will be the future...and even a cheap Vizio with microled will look damm good.
