| | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get. - Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
- Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

 An excellent HDTV |
| Review Date: August 2, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Joe Hayes, Snellville, GA USA |
I recently purchased this TV for our workout room to help pass the time while running on the treadmill. I must say that I am very happy with this TV. It is big enough to see from across the room, the picture is very sharp, and the sound is pretty good. I am feeding it with HDMI from a splitter off my cable box and it works awesome. I also have it connected directly to the cable feed and standard definition viewing is OK but a wide screen always looks that way on standard def. I also have to agree with the other reviewer, because it is an anti-glare screen there are no issues seeing the TV from across the room, nice.
I mounted mine with a simple wall bracket that was about $25 that was from Amazon too, http://amzn.to/dk6igS. The wall bracket fit perfectly, works great, and was really easy to install. I will add some pictures to the product page later.
Thank Vizio for another great product!

Great Buy For A Student Going Back to School
|
| Review Date: August 15, 2010 |
| Reviewer: KEN 03, |
| Package shipped and arrived earlier than I expected, as usual with Amazon, and besides a hole and small rip in my box, it was a great buy. The picture quality was superb and the overall design is great. Only downside is the sound wasn't all that great but it's expected from a small TV such as this. It's perfect for a college student such as myself who lives in a dorm, or anyone who lives in a small apartment or small room. Doesn't take up too much space at all. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a small TV with great picture quality for a reasonable price. |
Vizio 22in LED, great!

| Review Date: July 18, 2010 |
| Reviewer: C. Bruder, Ocqueoc, MI |
Purchased this TV from Walmart for $250 (should have gotten it from amazon cheaper, but i like to look at a tv before i buy it).
Used primarily for HD Video Gaming (it is my travel set).
This tv is FANTASTIC.
PRO's
Crisp, clear picture.
The sound is much better than i expected from a small tv/speakers.
It is very thin, and very light. i have no problem lifting and manuevering this tv with one hand.
CON's
The 22in Vizio does require some fiddling to get the best picture out of it.
TruSurround is to be used at your discretion. However, i like it. It actually makes me look behind me sometimes, dangit. (this is good, lol)
The viewing angle up and down is not so good. I have a stand that is slightly above eye level, and i have to crank up the brightness to keep a clear picture.
OVERALL
Great TV, great buy, if you can find it for $200 THAT WOULD BE A STEAL! |
Perfect TV for a small/medium sized room!

A perfect TV for a small to medium sized room. Buy this TV...for the money and what you get out of it, nothing beats it in its class!
Picture quality is awesome and the TV is very thin.
Again, for what you pay for it (bought it at [...]), nothing beats it. |
VIZIO M220VA REVIEW
|
| Review Date: August 17, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Eddie J. Walton, Canton Illinois |
Nice thinny with exellent 1080p quality. Easy set up but go easy putting the stand on, the clips could break.
If you have hdmi plugs, use them for best picture quality. The 22inch monitor is small but its perfect for a bedroom or small room. This thinny has LED and LCD so I just had to have it. I know LED's are the newest and price testy so far but this outfit seems to be a great buy.
I recommend another good choice to match this awsume flat screen jewel. Hook a DVD/DVR HDMI/IorP up the unit with the hdmi cables. oooh!!sooo good.
I got a Toshiba DR420 HDMI/1080I dvd player/recorder from Amazon awhile back and love it also.
This dvr/recorder was another great Amazon purchase.
I always return to Amazon before I buy anything. No tax, free shipping,fast delivery and you will always find exactly what you want.

Good Mid-Range LED TV
|
| Review Date: May 6, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Jonathan C. Huang, |
I recently purchased the new VIZIO M220VA 22-inch LED TV, and so far it seems to be a solid performer. Of course, I feel that it is my obligation to point out that this model is NOT meant to be a high-end set. If you purchase this with such an expectation, you will be disappointed. However, if you are looking for a good, affordable LED LCD TV with great picture quality, you would have a difficult time finding a better bang for your buck than this.
Let me start by expressing how very annoyed I get when I read reviews that get so caught up in only pointing out superficial flaws and never even touch upon the most important aspects - picture and sound quality. Yes, this TV does have it's quirks: the remote is a little stiff and can be a little fickle sometimes. The stand is difficult to put on and 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. Standard definition content looks sub-optimal, but this is due to the nature of how SD video is scaled by HDTVs in general, and nothing to do with this model specifically. 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.
The screen has a matte finish, which is great if your environment has lots of lighting, as the matte surface will suffer far less from glare than a glossy screen would. There is a never-ending debate over whether one type of screen surface is better than the other, but I'll leave that for another day.
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).
The VIZIO has a decent number of inputs in the back, with 1x Composite, 1x Component, 2x HDMI, 1x VGA w/ Audio, 1x USB (for photos), and an optical input for a home theater sound system. It is worth noting that HDMI and component inputs are located directly on the back of the model (composite inputs are on the side), so if you are planning on wall-mounting it, it may be difficult to plug in the necessary connections if you don't leave enough room between the wall and the TV.
Also, it is worth noting that the previous reviewer stated that there is no way to remove unwanted channels individually. This is FALSE. Under the "Master Channels" menu, you have the options to "Mark All", and "Unmark All" channels. Hitting right on the controller allows you to move up and down on the list to select individual channels to add/remove.
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. |
a strong contender in the 22-26 inch class

| Review Date: May 17, 2010 |
| Reviewer: bradcs, NC USA |
| I must say that I am very pleased with this TV. It is a perfect fit for a bedroom. I beg to differ with some of the comments about the sound quality. The speakers are in front of the unit, not in the back as with many HDTV's. Yes the sound is a bit tinny, but it does not need to be cranked up to deliver sufficient sound for a 12x12 room. The picture quality is suberb for a smaller screen. The HD 1080p is indeed full HDTV and I am impressed with the LED backlighting. It is also a solid energy saver as it is rated at a 4.0 for energy efficiency. Yes, the remote could be improved, but I have to use a cable remote for my box so that is a non-issue for me. All in all I would definitely recommend this TV for the price. I am very satisfied with its performance thus far. |
About what I expected.

| Review Date: June 28, 2010 |
| Reviewer: D. Peterson, Ashland, VA United States |
I knew going in that this model, like most small flat screens, has tinny sound, so I can't ding it too hard for that. It sounds worse on some things than others and I can live with it for the types of shows I watch (History channel, TLC, news, etc.).
The picture is great - super clean with very natural colors. Even standard definition looks reasonably good, better than on my 61" model, I guess because everything's squished down more.
Rapid motion is more blurry than my 120Hz TV, but that would be a fault of all 60Hz models, which is pretty universal in this size/price range.
I'd agree with other reviewers that the remote is not ergonomically good, not fitting in the hand well and buttons that don't have a good feel. The volume is slow to change.
Overall I'm quite pleased with it. |

Very Good Value

| Review Date: August 5, 2010 |
| Reviewer: R. Clark, Ridley Park, PA United States |
Purchased from Amazon when they were price-matching WalMart's online price; even SS shipping arrived in three days. This TV (finally!) replaced the old 13" analog Sony that's been in our kitchen for 15 years.
Connected to our living room HT system via an HDMI splitter and 50' HDMI cable (which together added about $70 to the cost of the set) from the AV receiver, so it displays the same signal feeding the primary display (TiVo, Blu-ray, HD-DVD, HD cable box, Netflix, etc.). For this application we use the separate speakers installed in the kitchen fed by the receiver's Zone 2.
Also connected directly to our 40+ year old roof antenna (which hasn't been used since we got cable more than 20 years ago).
PICTURE (HD): It's just fine. Plenty of adjustment, and running a calibration disc from the Blu-ray player allowed it to be quickly brought into reasonable fidelity. Didn't worry too much about getting it perfect, since it's just there for casual viewing, but color fidelity is good, blacks are deep, and it's fine in the variable lighting conditions in the kitchen. There are a number of pre-sets for image adjustment, which I didn't use, and also picture enhancements like room-lighting compensation, which I also turned off. Typical of LEDs, the picture washes out as you move off axis, and this one seems pretty average in that regard. Uniformity seems good, especially for an inexpensive TV. No dead pixels.
PICTURE (SD): As long as the source is digital, SD image quality is quite good. I checked with an analog source (a DTV converter box), and it's as expected: nearly unwatchable. You need a digital cable box, satellite tuner, OTA DTV, or disc player with HDMI to get a good picture from this TV.
SOUND: We only use the internal speakers when tuning OTA stations, and the sound is just fine, much like the ancient CRT it replaced. Adequate for news and talk; plenty loud. If you were using this for a primary display to watch movies etc., I'd plug a set of decent powered speakers into the handy headphone jack.
TUNING: We live about 15 miles from Center City Philadelphia, and the set found and tuned (AFAIK) every digital station available, with ease. But that's with a roof antenna, so YMMV, maybe a lot. With a 1080p HDMI signal, the set had no issues with the 50' cable.
FEATURES: The remote is OK. The stand took some care and force to install, but was fine. (Note that it holds the screen tilted back maybe 10 degrees.) Didn't test the USB port. The set shuts itself off after a few minutes if there's no signal. The manual was nicely printed and written in clear English. The set was well packaged, and the apparent build quality was surprisingly good.
We're very happy with this TV. This is the first Vizio product we've purchased, and I'm hoping they're trying to be like Hyundai and become the low price/high reliability alternative to the established brands. Fingers crossed. |

| Bought this on Amazon for $251.00 total with shipping. Same set but older model at Wal Mart for $299.00. Very nice picture. Good sound. Lots of nice features at a very good price. Fast shipping! Very happy with purchase. |
Solid display for direct viewing angle.

| Reviewer: dhm19382, West Chester, PA USA |
| A very solid display with good picture - when viewed from directly in front of screen. All LCD displays loose image quality at some angle away from directly in front of the display, but this screen seems to suffer this problem more than average. It's only a minor issue for us, and offset by great picture and great value otherwise. |
