I’m in the market for a large TV and would like a 55”, but 52” is generally the norm, so this is very appealing to me.  Is Vizio a quality brand?  My brother has a 42” Vizio, and it looks good and all, but it was from Walmart, and I don’t generally equate TV’s from Walmart with highest quality, but maybe things have changed in the past few years?  I was almost settled on a Samsung 52”, but this 55” is the perfect size for me!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ike Skelton]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2008 10:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Vizio intros 55-inch 1080p XVT HDTV, soundbar, more goodies]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</guid><description><![CDATA[From what I hear they are a decent, budget TV.  You're getting what you pay for (i.e. not the best black levels, contrast, color accuracy).  The problem I always hear about (and the reason I've never bought one) is with their customer service.  If/when something goes wrong with it, good luck getting help. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[daaper]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2008 3:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Vizio intros 55-inch 1080p XVT HDTV, soundbar, more goodies]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</guid><description><![CDATA[daaper, I can speak of their customer service. I bought a 42" LCD two years ago last August. Around the 10th or 11th month the video board went out making the picture on the screen look like it was on LSD. I snapped a picture and posted it to a couple of theme boards and then sent an email into Vizio's support.<br><br>In the email, I included the URL to where the pictures could be seen online. I was asked if the display was wall mounted and when purchased. I provided this information in within days I had a pair of individuals in my home unmounting the broke display and installing a new unit.<br><br>The cost to me was nothing. The amount of aggravation to me was one email and one reply. I guess this must have been an anomaly if others had grossly different experiences. Will I buy another Vizio? Of course I will. I bought this one to replace the family room boob-tube and it has more than performed that role.<br><br>What is more daunting if the fact that most cowsumers buy into marketing than anything else. For instance, if you were to buy a 55" 16:9 1080P HDTV then you better not sit more than 6 feet from it (if you have 2-/20 vision) or you will not be able to resolve that 1080P resolution.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GhostDoggy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 21st 2008 5:28AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Vizio intros 55-inch 1080p XVT HDTV, soundbar, more goodies]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</guid><description><![CDATA[Vizio has been budget brand until very recently.  It used to be that anything Vizio put out was considered the very cheapest of the lot.  That isn't true anymore with these XVT units.  While quality control is still a little iffy, the contrast ratio and refresh rates of these panels are pushing even the highest rated panels currently on the market. If this 55" is even remotely up to the task of these stats, I'd gladly put it up to a Samsung or even a Panny Plasma, for that price who wouldn't?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[disciple83]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2008 3:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Vizio intros 55-inch 1080p XVT HDTV, soundbar, more goodies]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/20/vizio-intros-55-inch-1080p-xvt-hdtv-soundbar-more-goodies/</guid><description><![CDATA[I definitely think it's time for an upgrade with this 55" at that price.  My parents have the Vizio 47" XVT and it has been better than anything they have had before.  I saw that Vizio is doing text alerts now too.  I signed up just so I can find out when this giant goes on sale!<br>vizio to 67463.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Soxman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 5th 2008 1:21PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
