Vizio VO47LF price range: $799.99

The good: Relatively inexpensive; accurate color temperature after calibration; accurate primary colors; solid uniformity across the screen; excellent connectivity with four HDMI inputs and one PC input; attractive finish.
The bad: Produces a lighter shade of black; inaccurate color temperature presets; below-average off-angle viewing; just two aspect ratio modes with HD sources.
The bottom line: Despite our usual picture quality quibbles, the well-equipped Vizio VO47LF 47-inch flat-panel LCD stays true to the company's good-value reputation.
As Vizio continues to prove itself capable of competing in sales against the Sonys and Samsungs of the world, the company keeps tweaking its formula of offering plenty of bang for the buck, especially in the features department. The newly designed VO47LF, a 47-inch flat-panel LCD, has four HDMI inputs and plenty of picture adjustments in addition to the now all-but-standard 1080p resolution (for what that's worth). Its image quality stands solidly in the middle of the road, with those lighter black levels and subpar off-angle viewing characteristics seen on many other budget LCDs, but balanced by good color accuracy, at least after adjustment. You can still find numerous larger, 50-inch plasmas available for around the same price, but if you must have LCD and want a big screen for smaller money, the VO47LF deserves strong consideration.
Design
Vizio's HDTVs have, for the last two years, embraced a Chevy Monte Carlo-style two-tone paint job, with black glossy bodies above silver speakers. The VO47LF breaks that trend to fall in line with most of the other HDTVs available today, dressing itself entirely in black. The edge around the screen is glossy, framed in perforated matte black, and the entire cabinet is slimmer than previous Vizios and, to our eye, marginally better-looking. The company kept its trademark light-up, er, trademark, which glows white when the TV's turned on and orange when it's off. It's a good thing the glow is dim, because there's no way to turn it off.
The unusually comprehensive, well-written manual unfortunately lacks a specifications page, so we turned to the Vizio Web site to discover that the VO47LF measures 44.5 inches wide by 29.8 inches tall by 10.5 inches deep with the stand and 44.5 inches wide by 28.5 inches tall by 4.5 inches deep without. That's more compact than the company's previous generation of panels although, unlike some previous Vizio models, the VO47LF doesn't let users detach the speakers.
The remote control for the VO47LF is quite good, with backlighting behind just about every key, plenty of room between buttons, and a sensible layout that should be easy to learn for most users. Many of the keys along the bottom double-up on different functions, and they can be hard to differentiate at times, but we did appreciate the array of keys that provide direct access to each input type (TV, AV, component, and HDMI). The clicker can command three other pieces of gear.
Features
A native resolution of 1920x1080, or 1080p, tops the VO47LF's spec sheet. It's the highest pixel count currently available and lets the display show every detail of the highest-resolution HDTV material. That's all well and good, although at this screen size you'll be hard-pressed to appreciate the extra detail. No matter; everybody's going 1080p these days, especially in LCD, so it's almost a nonissue at this point.
Picture-adjustment features, however, are an issue, and the VO47LF has a solid palette to choose from. The three color temperature presets are augmented by a "Custom" mode with individual controls for red, green, and blue. You can also customize the standard picture controls independently per input, and we were happy to note the presence of a backlight control. The set also has a variety of settings in the Advanced menu that are generally best left turned off, with the exception of the noise-reduction control, which despite its relative ineffectiveness should be engaged for noisy sources.
Unlike many HDTVs these days, the VO47LF still includes a picture-in-picture option that allows you to watch two programs at once. The set offers a choice of just two aspect ratio modes with HD sources and four with standard-definition. The Wide mode with 1080i and 1080p material results in zero overscan, but we would have liked a mode that overscanned a bit, so the occasional interference visible at the extreme edges of some HD channels could be eliminated.
We loved that the back panel of the VO47LF was equipped with enough HDMI jacks--four in all--to outfit the most console-heavy entertainment system. We also appreciated the VGA-style PC input for analog computer connections (1920x1080 maximum resolution). There are also two standard AV inputs, one with composite video and one with S-Video; an RF input for antenna and/or cable; an optical digital audio output and a stereo analog audio output. This set is missing easy-access front- or side-panel connections.
Performance
The short story on the VO47LF's picture quality is that it can't muster the depth of black seen on many more-expensive panels and its initial color temperature could use some work, but we did appreciate its accurate primary colors and adjustability. After our standard calibration (click here or scroll down to Tips for our picture settings), we checked out Castaway on Blu-ray, comparing the Vizio with the budget Insignia NS-PDP42 along with our reference displays for color and black level, the Sony KDS-55A3000, and the Pioneer PDP-5080HD, respectively.
Black-level performance: The depth of black produced by the Vizio VO47LF is about average for a budget set; not too bright but definitely not nearly as dark as better flat-panel LCD and plasma displays we've reviewed. From the sweet spot in front of the TV, dark areas such as the night sky over the FedEx tarmac or the shadows inside Tom Hanks' Jeep Cherokee appeared a bit darker and more realistic then on the Insignia, but not nearly as rich as on the other two displays. However, shadow details, such as the tangled depths of Helen Hunt's hair or the folds of Hanks' jacket, did appear less distinct on the Vizio than even the Insignia.
Color accuracy: Calibrating the VO47LF's color temperature improved this area immensely; unfortunately the Warm preset was entirely too red (it measured closer to the 5,400K black-and-white standard then the ideal for HDTV of 6,500K), while the Normal and Cool were unacceptably blue. After adjustment, white areas such as the captains' shirts and the froth of the water entering the airplane looked much more natural, although in dim areas the tone was still too red. We also noticed that, as with many LCDs, the black and near-black portions of the screen were tinged with blue.
Primary colors were relatively accurate, from the lush greens of the jungle island to the blue of the ocean and sky to the orangish-red of Hanks' canvas bag. Color balance also stood the test, as evinced by his not-too-ruddy face in the first couple days of being stranded. We did notice that colors in general lacked the kind of punch and saturation we saw on the Pioneer, a symptom of lighter black levels, but accuracy was solid overall.
Video processing: As with nearly every 1080p LCD we've tested, the Vizio fully resolved every detail of a 1920x1080 test pattern, but as usual it was next-to-impossible to see any difference in detail between this 1080p display and the 720p (er, 768p) Pioneer. The Insignia did appear a bit softer in some highly detailed areas, like the rock face or sand or an overhead shot of a jungle floor, but we chalk up that difference to the Insignia's unusually soft picture, not to any advantage the Vizio's 1080p resolution brings. The VO47LF failed to properly deinterlace 1080i film-based material, but as usual that failure was extremely difficult to spot in program material.
Other considerations: As with many LCDs, the Vizio's performance falls off if you move off-angle from the sweet spot, at a rate that's more noticeable than many other LCDs we've seen. The darker areas of the image wash out, and from extreme angles a characteristic reddish tinge sets in. On the flipside we were impressed by the uniformity of the VO47LF's picture across the screen, which remained solid except for the extreme upper-left corner, which looked a bit brighter than the rest in the darkest scenes.
Standard-definition: The Vizio turned in a mediocre performance overall, with a few jaggies visible on moving diagonal lines, some softness in high-detail shots unless the sharpness control was maximized, and relatively ineffective noise reduction.
PC: Although the analog PC input accepted 1920x1080 sources, they looked soft and text appeared choppy, and the set was unable to resolve every line of horizontal resolution, even after the "auto adjust" feature was activated. Via HDMI, PC sources looked superb as expected.

really hard to beat for the $....after about an hour tweaking

Pros: connectivity, out-of-the box to on in less than 15 minutes
Cons: angle viewing, not-so-black blacks

Summary: I spent an hour trying to mimic the color/picture of the 50" Sony Bravia sitting next to this TV at Costco today... not by choice. I had to return a Vizio 42" plasma as the screen had developed green and red specks (my kids called them the bees) in the black areas of the screen after about 18 months. Lucky for me that set was bought before Costco's return policy changed last year. Anyway, I was pretty wary of buying another Vizio, and was set to buy a 42" Panasonic Plasma (which was sold out) or possibly even a 46" 720p Sony that was the same price as the Vizio. Then I found this new model up front, but the picture left a lot to be desired as it sat on the shelf. I couldn't take my eyes off the picture of the Sony next to it, but at 50", it was too big for my space, and at $3K, twice what I had to spend. Anyway, after about an hour of tweaking, stepping back, tweaking, stepping back, etc, I finally had the picture at what I consider pretty darned close to the Bravia...which was reason enough to bring it home and give it a try here. So far, so good. The best part about it was that I got $130 back since what I paid 2 years ago was more than what this (bigger, nicer) LCD set is today.

Average Joe's dream TV

Pros: Excellent Value, 4 HDMI inputs, decent picture

Summary: At a price point of $1393.00, this is a tough value to beat. If price is not an issue AND you are a serious A/V person, this TV is not for you. The Pioneer and Panasonic plasmas or Samsung and Sony LCD's operating at 120hz crush the picture this TV can generate. We won't even get into sound.
BUT...
The Vizio is capable of handling an Xbox 360, PS3, Wii (you can see where my intrests are at), Cable or Satallite, surround sound (i.e. home theater in a box) and still not use all of the ports. For me, that means no seperate receiver and all of my sources go direct to the television giving a clearer picture and ease of use.
The black levels on the picture can hide some of the details - especially when viewing Blu-Ray, and the black bars on the top and bottom of the picture are not dark at all. However, the picture is very bright regardless of the amount of light in the room and the tv offers a good picture from all angles. The speakers are not great, but last time I checked, even the high end panels were not earth shaking.
I spent about $2000.00 on the Vizio, PS3 and a Panasonic home theater in a box (strictly for audio use). All items were purchased at Sam's or Wal Mart, so even if they break in a year, I can return or exchange them at no extra cost. That is a tough value to beat for someone who likes to watch the news after work, sportcenter, some cartoons with the kids and some movies and games on weekends.4 out of 4 users found this user opinion helpful.

No better deal for the dollars
by jobyshokk on March 21, 2008
Pros: Picture, size, features vs. $$, great remote, extras
Cons: Speaker sound is a bit 'tinny'

Summary: After reviewing (in person & online) many, many brands & models of LCD TVs, my wife & I decided the Vizio VO47LF was the one to get. We purchased this last weekend for under $1400. The store's display of 'flats' had this Vizio w/ a S-brand 42" on one side & a P-brand 46" on the other. The P-brand was a definite 'NO'... My better half stated the S-brand had a better picture, so I grabbed the Vizio's remote & tweaked the picture, then asked her if she wanted to pay $600 more for less TV. We went home w/ the Vizio...
Our out of box experience was excellent! The included HDMI cable & cleaning cloth are nice touches. Setup took no more than 15 min. using the default settings. The remote was already programmed for the cable box! Had local cable turn on HD the next morning & all we could say was 'WOW!!' all day long.
Current attached items are;
Motorola HD/DVR cable box via HDMI
Panasonic HTiB (standard def DVD) via component in
Kodak HD camera dock via component in
Laptop via RGB in
To us & our friends, the picture quality is fantastic!! The black levels seem deep & the color absolutely jumps out at you! Even from side angles, we don't notice an unacceptable amount of picture degradation. We tested fast action TV by watching a few minutes of NASCAR & saw no noticeable ghosting on this unit. I'm sure some video aficionado would say it can be tweaked to look better, but as average homeowners, we're very satisfied with the picture as-is.
The menu is very intuitive & simple to navigate.
The overall look of the unit is very classy - all matte black. MUCH better than the silver speaker grill style on previous models. I also like that the bezel is not 'piano-black' as the shine can distract from the picture.
The included 'universal' remote is probably one of the best I've ever used. It's very sleek & has good grippy feel to it. Nice backlit pad. Cable box was pre-programmed OOtB - nice!!
The HD photo dock allows us to view 8.2mg photos in 720p & watch HD video taken w/ the camera. They look truly stunning on this TV.
The cable/DVR box is a newer model from Motorola, seems to work fine w/ the TV. All channel/DVR/menu functions work w/ the Vizio's remote.
The HTiB is an older Panasonic standard def DVD/VCR combo w/ 5.1 surround. Haven't quite figured out all the HTiB's button assignments to the Vizio remote, but had this issue w/ other univ remotes as well. No biggie...
Since we use a surround system, the built in speakers are moot to us. But we did try them out watching The Matrix. They were OK at normal levels, but became tinny as the sound was turned up. I wouldn't let this be a deal breaker as they were far from unacceptable.
This is our first flat panel TV & I will -without hesitation-, buy, recommend, sing the praises of Vizio.4 out of 4 users found this user opinion helpful.

Buy the extended warranty
by okiepainter on December 6, 2008
Pros: great picture and price good looking TV
Cons: Had it a year and the screen went black while i was watching it. I think they want 400.00 to fix the problem. I didnt have the extended warrenty, if you buy one get the extended warranty you will need it. (power supply problem)
Summary: great picture, the sound quality isn't great, but overall it's a great and easy to use TV for the price.

Summary: I've tried 6 HD sets in the last year,all priced at around $1000. Most of them are below average for the money (Samsung Plasma,Toshiba LCD). The Panasonic had a great picture,but the blacks were always unclear. TheSamsung was a great LCD,but costs $400. more. Plasma's use too much juice and are too heavy. The samsung's all have headphone jacks.The menu on the Vizio is too small. But for $900. you can't beat it. And Costco extends the warranty to two years.

One of the best HDTVs I've seen

Summary: Many of the HDTVs that I have seen offer mixed colors and fuzzy images at best. I think this is an exception. When I connected my Xbox 360 to this beast, I used the HDTV settings. I cranked up the resolution to its highest at 1080p. After I threw in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company, I was blown away. Maps and interface options were crisp and clear in RSV2. In Bad Company, the different battlegrounds looked like real cities and fields.
You are going to need HD channels to watch regular television. My old satellite box will plug into it. I can watch TV, but the resolution on it only goes to 480i or so. This low resolution makes shows look grainy and unclear. But that's the box's limitation, not the Vizio's.
I think that the connection ports are a bit hard to access. They are arranged vertically on the back, forcing you to either hold the television at an angle or to move under it in order to connect something. That can be a little annoying depending on where you keep your Vizio. However its array of ports make up for it.
CNET's review states that it shows a lighter shade of black and it has poor off angle-viewing. After watching programs and playing games on this Vizio, I am inclined to say that this may not be the case. I could be wrong, but the black colors look great and I have no problem watching it from odd or indirect angles. Just my opinion.
Overall, this Vizio offers a solid package for those in the market for a new, large HDTV. You can connect several of your devices to it and the picture is great. The guy at Sam's Club even said, "No one has ever brought one back." That says it all. This Vizio is a great 47-inch TV.

Just Buy It. Best Bang For Buck

Summary: I was just like so many other people on this site. "Which tv should I buy?" My main hesitation in getting this tv was that it wasn't a big name brand (Sony, Samsung, etc.). I have a couple friends that like their Vizios, but I just wasn't sure.
I just bought this tv yesterday, and it is AMAZING. It has great colors. HD cable looks great, the Wii (with composite cable) looks better than before, and even my DVDs look good on it.
A couple other great things:
- the remote looks good and controls my cable box and DVD player;
- excellent amount of inputs;
- the speakers work a lot better than I thought they would;
- the set itself looks great.
Only a couple drawbacks:
- the black levels are not the greatest. But, they are just fine. I'm serious...you'll be happy with them.
- there is a little ghosting effect, but very, very little! Don't let it worry you. I was afraid there would be a lot, and I can barely see it; it only pops up once in awhile.
- Finally, I heard (have not tried it) that the Digital audio output is not active when the audio source being sent to the tv is from HDMI. I haven't hooked it up to my receiver yet, but I read it in the manual.
I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TELEVISION!1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Four months of pure bliss!!!!!
by smitbret on June 19, 2009
Pros: Colors are very accurate if you've taken the time to calibrate it properly. Seems to have less motion blur than other 60 Hz LCDs that I've seen. An HDMI cable is included. Seems to have better audio than other flat screens. Bang for Buck *****!
Cons: The blacks could be deeper and the contrast could be a little better. The remote control feels flimsy. Not the most stylish frame and body (Samsung pretty much has this market cornered).
Summary: Matched up with my PS3 (as a media server), this was the perfect tv at the perfect price. I had spent two or three months deciding that I wanted the ...
Summary: Matched up with my PS3 (as a media server), this was the perfect tv at the perfect price. I had spent two or three months deciding that I wanted the Samsung 50-inch plasma. I'm a sports fan and a photographer, so motion blur and accuracy of colors was really important to me. On he eve before my purchase, I decided to swing through Costco and see if maybe I'd missed a television that should be considered. I saw this one on display and thought to myself, "Self, it's not nearly as good looking as the LGs or the Samsungs, but geez for $300 I can live with that." Went home and did my research and decided to dump the plasma and get this great LCD for $300 less than I was going to get the Samsung PN5A550. No doubt that I sacrificed a bit in the picture quality (Sorry, but LCD still cannont compete with the contrast and realism that you get with plasma). I have noticed no or very little motion blur. This tv seems to handle it nearly as well as the 120 Hz sets that I have seen without getting the funky "120Hz" look. In the end, I'm glad I went with LCD, because window glare does seem to be a little problem and the plasma would have been a disaster. I don't second guess this decision one bit.

Summary: The 30A version of the Vizio VO47LF has been significantly upgraded over the 10A version. What's interesting is that Vizio keeps so quiet about this. I didn't find out until I purchased the unit at Costco and looked at the specs in the manual. The Vizio site has only some of the changed listed on their site, but they don't specify the version. The manual is even the old 10A version.
Oh, I should mention Vizio now includes a a stylish all black universal remote with the tv. The Vizio site shows a small anemic looking remote, but the one that came the 30A version is pretty nice. The front is gloss black with a small silver Vizio label at the bottom and the back is flat black. It's designed to stand on its end if you want. Some of the buttons are a little small, and the gloss black remote attracts prints, but otherwise it's very nice.
I picked up this set, because at $750 for a 47" 1080p display, I couldn't beat the price (last one in the store and the shelf model). Of course, I also liked how it looked and performed against the Samsung sitting next to it. Here's a quick rundown of the improvements I noticed. (these specs come from the manual that I received with the 30A version. The manual on the Vizio site is for the 10A version.)
- Better Display. The 30A uses a new panel which displays 1.07 billion colors. The 10A panel displays 16.77 million.
- Better port access. There are now 2 HDMI, 1 Component, and 1 Composite connections all on the side. Another 2 HDMI, 1 Component, and 1 Composite connections, 1 s-video, 1 RGB around back.
- Improved Contrast Ratio. They bumped up the contrast from 1000:1 (2000:1 DCR) up to 1300:1 (6500:1 DCR).
- More Energy Efficient. It even appears they've improved the energy use from 280w avg to 157w avg. (set now featured on the Energy Star site).
- Lighter Weight. The 30A version (59 lbs) tv is even about 18 pounds lighter than the 10A version (77 lbs) (perhaps due to the change in panel).
- Thinner Bezel. The 30A version is now just under 44" w. The 10A was 44.5" w.
I've have not noticed any off-angle color shifts or dimming unless you're at the extreme edges. Even the speakers are much better than I expected (although I use a surround system for movies, etc).
I sat there at Costco and tweaked the Vizio until it looked better than the 46" 120hz Samsung sitting next to it (with the exception of really deep black levels and no 120hz).
Overall, this is just an excellent set. The only things that would make it better in my book would be 120hz, even deeper black level, a swivel stand, volume limiting, and if it cleaned my floors for me.
Now, will David Katzmaier do a review of the 30A version? Probably not, but it sure would be nice to see how this much improved version fares. I also wouldn't mind seeing the configuration they do for a dark room.
