Vizio E552VLE price range: $649.99 - $748.00

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.

Summary: We bought this tv, and have been very happy with the picture quality, but the wifi connection has not worked. We have already had a replacement, and the same thing, only this time hard wire doesn't work either. Save the money and just get a TV... I am in the process of trying for a refund since they conveniently swapped my tv, so now i cannot take back to the store. Buy another brand!
