Read Before Buying!
I don’t know if it was just the specific unit that I received in the mail or if this is a problem with all of these TVs but do not buy this! After hooking up the TV and getting all of the consoles set up, the picture and sound would go out for 2 to 3 seconds and then come back on. It was almost like someone was switching the inputs on the TV back-and-forth because when the picture would come back it would display the info bar at the top of the screen. I looked through Reddit and called Vizio’s customer service and nothing could be done about it. It only seemed to do it when it was in HDR and playing 4K. I tried everything to fix it, unplugged it from the wall held down the power button for 10 seconds and plugged it back in, it still did it, switched out HDMI cords, bought new ones that were made for 4K HDR, turned CEC off (someone on reddit said that worked for them), nothing worked. Amazon was kind enough to actually let me return this TV. I will not be buying Vizio products ever again. This was a terrible experience. If you are thinking of buying this TV and come across this review please look into it further before you do so. This is apparently a common problem with Vizio TVs and as of now there is no firmware patch or workaround to fix it. I will try to upload a video showing what I’m talking about later.
