CNET editors' review
Vizio E472VLE price range: $609.98 - $674.99
- Reviewed by: David Katzmaier
- Reviewed on: 03/21/2012
- Released on: 03/01/2012
The good: The Vizio E2VLE delivers plenty of features for the price, including a 120Hz refresh rate, Smart TV and built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Its streaming video and audio selection is excellent. It evinced accurate colors and its matte screen helps picture fidelity in bright rooms.
The bad: Compared with other budget TVs the 32VLE showed even lighter black levels, and it failed to properly handle 1080p/24 sources. Its Smart TV interface can seem dated, as can its styling, even for a non-LED-based LCD TV.
The bottom line: The Vizio E2VLE series may appeal to budget shoppers who just want Smart TV, but subpar picture quality hurts its chances against the tough competition.

Good Budget HDTV!
by Elliott_J on June 30, 2012
Pros: + Picture is very good

+ Very easy to set upCons: - Limited feature remote

Summary: After a week with this TV, I've decided that I'm glad that I resisted the urge to buy a more state-of-the-art, and more expensive, model. This meets all of my needs, plus adds some nice to have features that I didn't think I would get for this price.
The most important thing, of course, is the picture. I am very pleased with it. For example, I watched the OTA broadcast of the first game of the NBA finals, and the picture was as good as anything I've seen with the demo loops they show at the stores. Also, I'm pleasantly surprised that OTA SD content looks good, too. I've seen some other TVs at friends houses that do a poor job on SD content. It also does well with DVDs, and other non-HD content, such as things I have encoded over the years.
The picture is incredibly sharp and detailed with an Xbox 360. If there are any image blurring issues in games, they are beyond my eyesight.
This TV also has a very good viewing angle. I don't notice much of a drop-off of image quality, even when sitting almost completely to the side of the screen.
The speakers are another plus. Not spectacular, but plenty loud enough to fill the room, and of good fidelity.
Another reviewer criticised the remote. I agree with that. It is of the "lots of tiny buttons" category, and not as responsive as I would like. But after programming the TiVo remote for the TV, I rarely use it, anyway.
The various setup/tweaking menus could have been done better. For one thing, I don't understand why, on a 1080p-capable screen, the text of some items is almost unreadable. Thankfully, there's not much setup to be done, and for the most part, I'm too lazy to be a tweaker.
The Internet connectivity and apps features are a mixed bag. The Netflix app is at least as good as what I have on a Roku box, and I will definitely use it; but the YouTube app , and some others I have tried are pretty useless.
Note, I suggest check low price for the Vizio E472VLE before you will buy it at: lcdhdtv2k12.blogspot.com/p/vizio-e472vle.html
Hope this helps, Enjoy!3 out of 3 users found this user opinion helpful.

Great TV for the $$$.
by C. John on June 9, 2012
Pros: Actually has color equal to/better than a few of my neighbors' Samsungs, Sonys, Panasonics and LG's and I paid a couple hundred less. And the symmetry, as well as clarity, is better than some of them.
Cons: Edge lighting gives a blue hue on the shadow box/stripes when picture doesn't fill up the screen -- wish it was dead black. Netflix works just fine, but the VIA should be updated more frequently -- still have a couple showing 2011 products.
Summary: Will go back to my first comment.
We can all criticise/nitpick anything.
But, it is a 'Great TV for the $$$.'Summary: Will go back to my first comment.
