Outstanding Picture & Features
I absolutely love this new set, but the availability on Amazon led me to “reverse showroom” it, where I found/researched it online and wanted to buy it here (Prime, duh), but ended up getting it from Best Buy right away rather than wait for it to become available in 1-2 months. (If you haven’t heard the term “showrooming”, it’s where people browse a real store, find what they want, then go online to buy and save money.)
It’s kind of a hard-to-get set right now (Aug/Sept 2013) because it’s so highly rated by all the review sites. There are a lot better reviews than mine that go into very specific detail, so I’ll just add my $0.02 and say yes, it’s a killer set that is definitely worth waiting for or seeking elsewhere.
Edit: Oops – I meant to review the Amazon version of this set (click “More buying choices”), which is $150 cheaper than this supplier, but backordered (“Usually ships within 1 – 2 months”).
Great 32 inch Smart ED HDTV for the money
We purchased the Vizio M321i-A2 Smart LED HDTV to replace the 37″ Polaroid HDTV in our bedroom after it was taken out by an electrical storm. We searched many brands and sizes, but since we have had such good luck with our 37 inch Vizio, we decided to stay with the same brand, but go a little smaller. The set was super easy to set up and the picture and sound are great! A great LED HDTV for the money.
A really nice TV with a great collection of features. Good picture, low energy use, and easy to use menus make this TV a winner
The setup for the TV is extremely simple. You can be up and running in about 5 minutes. The Vizio control menu allows easy access to Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and a bunch of other apps. This model is very thin with a very low profile. You have almost no border around the TV so you are getting almost all screen. The TV has great brightness controls so you can make it work in about any room. I have mine in a game room mounted on a swinging wall mount and it works great from a wide range of angles. Also, because of its thin body, it sits great on a wall even on a swing arm mount. The sound is decent for a TV in this price range…plenty of available volume but it is not going to blow your Dolby loving socks off.
Over all I have no complaints with the unit. It looks nice on the wall. The picture quality is certainly better than average and very good for a TV in this price range. I love the easy to use menu and the easy to set up Wi-Fi capabilities.
This is a great bedroom or side room TV or even a good primary TV for a smaller room. Vizio continues to impress me and at their price point, I honestly don’t think you can beat them.
I have several Vizio TV’s around my house. I put them in bed rooms. The primary reason is that I like the smart aps built into the TV and the picture quality cannot be beat at that price range. I set them up with Netflix and Amazon Prime in the bedrooms and guests can watch movies while they visit.
