Vizio VO47L 47 inch 1080p LCD TV Review

If you are new here, you may want to subscribe to our feed.

Well, I have had this TV for a month and I absolutely love it.  It’s a 60HZ LCD screen, but honestly, I have a hard time telling the difference.  And talk about a value.  This thing was a great price – and the quality  is pretty amazing.  The picture is clear, bright, and color faithful.  The blacks aren’t amazing dark, but it’s good enough.  If you are in the market for a great quality HDTV, you would have a hard time matching the quality and value of the Vizio 47 inch 1080p LCD HD TV – VO47L FHDTV
