Reviews of the Vizio VO47LF

  • 6.2

    CNET Review

    March 19, 2008

    The Good: Relatively inexpensive; accurate color temperature after calibration; accurate primary colors; solid uniformity across the screen; excellent connectivity with four HDMI inputs and one PC input; attractive finish.

    The Bad: Produces a lighter shade of black; inaccurate color temperature presets; below-average off-angle viewing; just two aspect ratio modes with HD sources.

    The Bottom Line: Despite our usual picture quality quibbles, the well-equipped Vizio VO47LF 47-inch flat-panel LCD stays true to the company's good-value reputation.
