I began my quest for a tv at walmart with a budget of $600-700. I first noticed that this tv's image quality was superior to any of the other standard lcds and superior to most of the LED tvs that were hanging on the wall at twice the price. Since it was Walmart, and they are notorious for having crappy tv feeds, I took this with a grain of salt and decided I would visit another walmart to see if the quality differences were the same. They were. I couldn't believe how natural the sharpness of the E420VL was at this pricepoint. I'm a photographer so my eye is trained to spot sharpening artifacts (halos, etc) and this tv had none. The picture had awesome definition with the sharpness set to 1, which is fantastic. Another thing I noticed were the natural looking reds. One thing I've never liked about LCD tvs is the over-blown reds that are almost fluorescent looking. The colors of this Vizio looked like a CRT monitor. I thought to myself "the image quality is good but how will it handle blu-ray or fast-moving video?" I got online and found only positive reviews so I decided to check out more tvs at Sam's and BestBuy before making a final decision. After looking at both places, I just couldn't find a TV with better image quality for under $1500 bucks. Even some of the "higher-end" vizios didn't have the picture quality that E420VL has. I'm a very skeptical person so I just found it really hard to swallow that this TV would have look this good at this price point. I was aware of Vizio's quality control issues in the past but having read a lot of reviews on this particular model, I couldn't find the negative reviews that have plagued certain Vizio models. To make a long story short, I went back to Wal-Mart and bought the E420VL for under $600 bucks. A few tweaks later, I love this thing. Here are a couple of settings that I use on my to get a phenomenal picture:Picture Mode: MovieBrightness: 47under Advanced Picture:Smooth Motion Effect: LowReal Cinema Mode: Precision (The combo of low Motion Effect and Precision reduces the Soap Opera Effect inherent to 120hz or higher TVs)Adaptive Luma: Extend (more detail in dark areas; this combined with 47 brightness created a natural-looking high-contrast picture)

I work for a Cable TV company installing so ive seen LCD tv's at there best and worst. This is definetly a top tier tv. 480 analog and digital pics have very little distortion and blur. The hi def is amazing. So crisp and vivid. I am very impressed with the tv for its price, and image quality.

I generally only write a review if I'm either incredibly disappointed or incredibly impressed with something... Fortunately, this TV falls into the later category... I am definitely very impressed with this TV. I didn't buy it from Amazon (it was $600 at Costco when I got it), so I can't comment on delivery/etc, but I can comment on the quality of the product. It's amazing. I've connected multiple devices to the TV; Blu-Ray, PS3, XBox360, Upconverted DVD, HD Cable, etc... Everything looks great. The menus are very easily navigable, and I've haven't had to adjust anything since the first day that I've had it. 1080p sources really do look amazing (and 720p is NOTHING to sneeze at)... I really have nothing bad to say about this TV. My PS3 and XBox360 look incredible. Highly recommended, man!
