We recently purchased this television from a different store but were impressed as soon as we turned it on. We had received a 24" Vizio LCD for Christmas, but its quality was severely lacking - the picture went dark very quickly if you viewed the screen off-center, even about 10-20 degrees off axis - to the point that having the television on top of a chest of drawers caused it to be too high to watch TV with any decent quality. We returned that one and bought the SV320XVT and were blown away by comparison.

Pros: The 1080p quality at 120Hz makes digital television channels look great. Device buttons are easily accessible for changing inputs instead of pressing a single "Source" or "Input" button multiple times to get to the input you want. There are three HDMI inputs, which is great for a cable/satellite tuner, Blu-Ray player, and another source (we use it for the Canon 7D's video output). The viewing angle is excellent, especially for an LCD. We were able to get a... Read more

"We were looking for a Bedroom TV that didn't dominate the whole space so we were excited to see the "slim-ness" of the unit and the small bezel around the LCD. The unit is nice and light so it can be easily transferred and wall mounted.

The picture quality is great, it's quality exceeds our three year old Phillips LCD and equals the PQ of our two month old 52" Sony Bravia. HD signals from BLU-RAY and TiVo HD (w/ HD CableCARD) look wonderful with rich colors and sharp picture. The Smooth Motion (120Hz) does create the "Soap Opera Effect", but it can be turned off in the setup men. There are plenty of video tweaks in the menus just like the other Major Brands.

The sound quality was really good. Obviously nothing that gets you to 5.1 home theater level but has plenty of options for audio mode adjustments.
The build quality is wonderful, solid, slim, design, down to the box it came in. The remote is good, looks pretty, the channel up/down Volume up/down button... Read more

I have owned many LCD TV's over the years. From Sharp to Sony and from Magnavox and Toshiba. My most recent was a beautiful 24" LED TV and a 46" Sharp Aquous LCD TV. I have also owned over 5 32" HDTV's, the most recent being a Sony KDL-32S5100 and before that a 40" KDL-40S4100. While I was entirely happy with the excellent quality of the S4100 the S5100 was HUGELY disappointing. The S4100 had some higher end specs with a 10-bit panel and a very nice casing. As the SonyKDL-32S5100 nearly directly competes with the Vizio SV320XVT I will compare the two. As a cost saving initive by Sony the S5100 dropped all the quality parts. It has a lesser 8-but panel and the casing overall feels cheap and is a much lesser quality than I had come to expect from Sony, especially in this price range. The Vizio however screams of quality.

The looks of this set is absolutely beautiful. You can truely tell that Vizio took their top of the line parts and put them all into this awesome package... Read more
