VIZIO 22" Class Razor LED-LCD 1080p 60Hz, Full HDTV, 2.27" Ultra-Slim, M220VA 4.3 5 105 123
A very good value for the money This TV is a great value for what you pay. Its price is the biggest Pro by far. The sound is fine in my opinion. Many reviews complain tirelessly about the lack of bass, but it is a 22 inch TV ...not a 50 incher with large speakers built in. The easy and obvious fix for this is to plug computer (or external) speakers into the headphone jack on the tv. The biggest Con of the TV is the tedious amount of tuning needed to produce a nice looking picture. It is very easy to claim this tv doesn't have a good picture if you don't know how to maximize the picture. An easy way to do this is to plug in your computer and go online to find images to use to tune the contrast brightness...etc...etc. GREAT FOR SPORTS. NO muddiness or "ghosting" during high movement shots. Soccer looks amazing. Make sure you know how to set up and tweak a TV if you are buying this to maximize what you get out of it. It is a great TV if you know what your doing...if not your review will be like many others on here claiming that the TV picture is poor. 08/02/2010
Good Mid-Range LED TV This TV has it's quirks: the remote is a little stiff and can be a little fickle sometimes. The stand is difficult to put on, and in all honestly it literally took me a good 15 minutes to figure it out. However, despite these flaws, this television does deliver where it matters.Picture quality is quite good, especially for a TV in its price range. High-definition content looks excellent, and I have had good experiences watching 720p/1080p movies from my laptop (through the VGA output). The picture is bright, crisp, and contrast is great. Blacks are rich and solid, without losing the subtle detail in the content. Keep in mind, though, that in order to get the most mileage, you will need to spend some time to calibrate the settings to give you an optimal picture quality. Games look great and there is no ghosting with the TV's fast 5ms response time.Sound quality on the other hand is nothing to write home about. The speakers are a bit weak, but this is easily solved by using a set of external speakers. I am currently using an old set of computer speakers hooked up via the headphone jack on the TV, and they sound infinitely better than the TV speakers after turning off the "SRS TruSurround" option (some sort of faux-surround sound simulator).All in all, this is a good TV. It is certainly not perfect, and if you have more money to spend I would encourage you to shoot for a higher-end model. But for what it's worth, the VIZIO M220VA is a tough beast to beat in its division. 05/06/2010
Great Television Pros:The picture quality is crisp, with vibrant colors.It has just about every kind of port you could possibly want.It weighs next to nothing, and is super thin, which is great for those who have limited space.No annoying standby light. This isnt critical, but good to know for anyone who plans on using this as a bedroom television.Cons:The speakers are a bit weak. I plugged in an old set of computer speakers and was infinitely happier.The remote control has a mind of its own. It will randomly interpret whatever button you press as the "off" button.The stand. Lets just say that I will never take the tv off its stand, for fear of ever having to put it back on. Just when you have given up all hope, it will finally just snap into place, as it should have done 10 minutes earlier.Overall, I am thrilled with my purchase. It does what it is supposed to, and does it at a price I can agree with. 06/09/2010
Amazing TV at a great price! I was looking for a TV to use in my dorm room that was at least 22" and had a QAM tuner and I stumbled upon this Vizio. Right out of the box (be persistent with the stand) I loved what I saw. My XBOX looks absolutely great on this display. The sound left some to be desired, but after the first few minutes I never even thought about it.I truly recommend this television to anyone looking in this size range. It's a great value all around. 07/16/2010
