 | 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

Poor Customer Service August 20, 2010 Donald R. Steigerwald VIZIO SV422XVT 42-Inch Class XVT Series 240Hz sps LCD VIZIO Internet Apps HDTV The TV itself is pretty good. I got what I ordered. I am a Sony person and have four Sony's in the house and have not a lick of problem from day one. I wish I could say that about this one. Most of my problem is with the customer service with Vizio. First of all, this set is supposed to have SRS sound control which appears not to be functioning correctly. Customer service flat told me that there is nothing wrong with the set but with the input I get from the satellite station. All of my Sony's do not have this problem. The set will also continuously recommend changing batteries in the controller because they are low. After three sets of new ones, I found this not to be true. Customer service advised me they will send a new firmware update that will correct this which as of this date has not happened. Their customer service appears to be a YES MAN service with no actual service.
Smooth Picture August 9, 2010 Cville Dude (Charlottesville, VA USA) I was pleasantly surprised with this TV in several areas. For those comparing this to Sony, Samsung and LG I believe you will find the Vizio compares favorably in terms of image, audio and especially motion against comparably priced models. The first thing I noticed on this set was the "reality" of the images when moving. It is hard to pinpoint the difference but it is certainly there. Whether or not this 240Hz is superior to standard 120Hz is beyond me or my eyes.
The internet apps feature is a nice add-on. So far I've found the Amazon and Netflix set up to be straightforward and surprisingly fast over wireless internet.
I see that there have been several issues with others having image or remote control quality problems. I have had no issues whatsoever and found the installation process (from Amazon) and quality to be top notch. So far this is a 5-star experience all around.
To summarize:
- beautiful image
- better than expected audio
- smooth motion is amazing
- top quality parts and delivery
Great TV for the $$ July 29, 2010 samplrgal We purchased this unit at Sam's Club in March for $848 not long after it came out. We were looking for a 240 Hz set 42 or 47". What sold us was the Internet Apps with the Netflix streaming - no need for a second device which saved us money. The picture is awesome and we have had no issues as noted with other reviews re: flickering etc. The only issue we had was with the remote. It would stop working after the set was turned on for a couple of minutes. If you reset the remote, it would work again for a couple of minutes. We tried resetting the remote via the Remote set-up on the TV and it again would stop working. A call to customer service and walking through a couple of tests he rendered the remote "dead". One was shipped immediately to us and all has been well since.
Excellent Choice! July 27, 2010 David Escobar Martinez (Denverr) My tv looks Great!!!
The only 2 thinks that i dont like about it is:
- The usb port does not work (Only for future updates)
- The internet apps does not have any browser. You have many apps but still can't navigate like on ps3....
I'd give it more stars but 5 is as high as it goes. July 9, 2010 Heather Barton I can't believe how much better this looks than my Panasonic 42" plasma. The 240Hz makes all the difference in the world and the internet apps are actually not as cheasy as I thought they would be. Awesome TV!
