 Good Quality for the Price September 9, 2010
Kevin Mumaugh (Cheyenne, WY USA)
I've had this TV for a few weeks now and am thus far very happy. I connected the TV with my X-box 360 as well as my DVD/Surround Sound system and they all work in perfect harmony. The picture is fantastic. Its a bit bright at times, but this is easily adjusted in the picture controls (which are easy to navigate and even come with a number of presets if you don't want to fiddle on your own). The size of this TV makes it optimal for an office or bedroom, but if you are like me (poor and in a small apartment) it is great for more general use.
I can't really speak much for the sound system. I heard it once when I first turned the TV on, but I now have all sound routed to the surround sound (which, if you have this TV in a room larger than a bedroom, I would recommend). I have to agree with other reviews though in mentioning that the remote for this TV has an extremely small operational range that can seem to vary on a whim. If you don't sit all that close to the TV, a universal remote is a good idea.
Great product for the money August 27, 2010

Great picture quality, sleek appearance, easy setup. A nice additon to my office as a 2nd monitor and tv.

WILLIAM GOSSELIN
[[ASIN:B002T922OC VIZIO VM230XVT 23-Inch XVT-Series 23-Inch 1080p LED LCD HDTV Excellent purchase,
Exceeded my expectation, the 240 hertz gave superb sharpness, clarity and color intensity right out of the box. The size was perfect for my home office and would also be great for a bedroom. I am connected to DIRECT TV Satellite service. I would honestly recommend this HDTV to anyone that would want a smaller TV for the home.
 Firmware patch for sound issue (for anyone having trouble) August 1, 2010
Anonymous (NC USA)
This TV has been one PITA after another. First the remote died. I took out the batteries and left them out for 24 hrs then put them back in and it has worked since then (but I recommend getting a programmable universal remote because the range is not good on the Vizio remote).
Then the more serious issue - the sound corruption issue, after 30 minutes, consistently. We tried getting this addressed through the Costco "concierge" service (a joke), and Vizio's warranty. So even though it was still under warranty because it is a 23 inch TV, they said WE had to pay for shipping to a repair center. Shipping on a TV like this would cost a lot... they would not admit that it is a manufacturer's defect. A consistent issue like this (I compiled over 20 separate online reviews from different customers with the problem) IS a manufacturer's defect. Just because a couple of people here have not had problems does not mean that it is not a common problem. Also a good portion of people hook up separate speakers and cut the TV volume off so would not notice a problem with the sound corrupting.
So Vizio customer service argued with me, failed to take responsibility for the defect, and accused me of causing the problem through misuse. Disgusting experience, and I will NEVER buy from this company again because of their phone person's lack of knowledge, sense, or civility.
Well as a last ditch effort I wrote an email asking if there was a firmware update I could apply by USB and miracle of miracles, there is a file called fwsu.img sent by billie dot vanengen at vizio dot com with a pdf containing instructions for upgrading the firmware to version 2.17 via USB.
The firmware upgrade to 2.17 PERMANENTLY resolved the corrupted sound issue. Why wouldn't the phone support person be aware of it? If this wouldn't have worked, I would have just sold it on craigslist to try to recoup some of the expense (with an honest description of the sound issue, to target someone who would be hooking it up to speakers anyway) and been even more disgusted.
Now today, the new Vizio issue du jour is that everything looks pastel (no deep blacks). Contrast and picture settings make no difference, but unplugging the HDMI and re-plugging it in corrects the issue. SO SICK OF THESE BUGS.
Like I said, will never buy another Vizio product again based on this. Hope the info about the firmware update this helps other people.
The fact that the firmware update addresses the sound problem shows that it is a known issue, also known as a manufacturer's defect.

I use this TV mostly for playing video games, and they look fantastic. I can really tell the difference when my games are in High Definition, and the screen produces very clear images. Also the screen was wider than expected, which is a good thing, yet it can still easily fit on my desk. It is probably the thinnest TV I have ever seen. Until pure LED TV's become affordable, I am going to stick with this one.
