Is this Coby model TV as good or better then Vizio?

I would say Vizio is a more highly respected brand. My brother ha a 32" lcd Vizio and I have the 32" led Coby. The picture on both is great, but the sound on the Vizio is WAY better than my Coby. That said, there is usually a significant difference in price, so depending on the intended usage (my Coby is a secondary TV), you might be just fine with it. If you are an avid TV/movie watcher, and this TV will be your primary one, I would suggest going with a Vizio TV rather than a Coby one.

I have a Vizio as well and there are features of the coby I like more than my Vizio and vice versa. I was looking for a tv that was simple to connect and easy to use for my 80 year old patents and this was perfect

Not for me. In fact I returned mine. The sound kept going in and out for no reason, and since it was brand new - I was scared that one day I wouldn't have any sound at all. I returned it while there was still a 'return policy' available.

Coby is perfect for a 2nd TV and it hardly gets used. I'm not familiar with Vizio. To date I have no complaints. Works fine.

This tv is well worth the price. My only complaint about it is the remote is junk. The tv itself works great.

neither I would buy a vizio over this one. Its great for the money if you are looking stright on as laying in bed. but for any other room I would go with the vizio.

i here that vizio is a very good brand. but, you are asking a person that bought the coby 32" for 208.00 for my bedroom and it is quite a great television. the only thing that i would do is purchase a reasonable price sound bar to throw the sound out more towards the front, but could partly due to watching the larger RCA in a the living room which is a large room and therefore the sound carries differenntly.I would purchase this television again without a second thought. hope the info helps!

I own this tv as well as a Vizio and I would say that I like the Vizio slightly better. Seems to be just a little better quality (nothing specific just my opinion). I have the Coby in a guest bedroom and it is not used terribly oftern but works fine.

I think it's close but no cigar. And I do have to give more credit to Vizio because Costco carries them.

cannot compare as i dont know. All i can say is that the TV i have is fantastic, the 3D is amazing, colors amazing, vibrant white, black is intense. In my opinion the smart TV side is not so good as it freezes frequently. Screen reproduction is amazing... Its very shiny, like Glass so this has to be in a Dark room, very little light as reflections are an issue. Our living room has window shutters therfore its not an issue...

It's actually far less glossy than other TVs and I have it sitting in my bright living room.. !! I would suggest go with c650 as I have similar distance between TV and the couch. Also, having Pandora and few other apps (weather etc ) is def a plus when you have it.. Look around and see if you can get even a better price.. I bought it from $1439 2 months ago..

-My friend has a Vizio 40 " 2.1 soundbar .While has good bass response, he said my Sound Appeal xxx-5000 bass is richer ,deeper . Possibly because the Sound Appeal 5000 unit has an 8 " woofer and he said his Vizio has a 6 " woofer .. The Sound Appeal lessor cost model xxxx- 3000 has 6 " woofer and still sounds very good . THe Sound Appeal units , with both the volume on the remote woofers have separate volume controls and the soundbar has its own separate volume controls (WHICH I LIKE) ALSO : THeSound Appeal model 5000 has one more mid range speaker ( 3 ) on each side od the sound bar itself. . THe Vizio 40 " has 2 midranges per side . Both have a tweeter each side .

Mine is great. The picture is very good. I mean that because I have a panasonic 65vt50 and after watching that I can still enjoy watching this one. So it most not be that bad if my eyes can stand the change from the best you can buy to this tv. It's currently in my bedroom

Yes, I use the Amazon app on the TV all the time! Vizio makes a great TV. The picture is and sound is great! I'm very happy with my purchase.

I agree with M. Barnes. Probably little difference between the two. Check Vizio's webpage at http://store.vizio.com/. Compare the two models tech specs and narrow your choice that way.

Not yet, but I'm thinking about it seriously. I've reviewed a lot of different tv's, this one looks like the best...I particularly like the 50,000:1 ratio. The only thing holding me back is, I've heard that new models of Blu Ray DVD are coming out later this summer that are much improved... Anyway, I saw this (the 46" model) in a store, and it looks VERY nice...

Well, I actually purchased this tv for my parents. My dad said the sound is much better than the Samsung tv they had before. I can say that i will probably purchase the 32" tv, same series for myself. I am totally impressed with what i have seen and heard. People say Samsung, i disagree, SONY BRAVIA will and should be number one.

I have the fifty five inch. We got it for a great price at walmart. We were hesistant at first. But its a great tv. I recommend hisense. A lot of people have never heard of the brand which makes it seem like you shouldn't buy it. We have had it for about five months. We use it often and the color is great. Picture volume appearance is great.

Yes, it is. Also, Netflix, M-Go. Love the tv. The customer service from Vizio is Very Good

Good morning Manny, before I purchased the Vizio M3D550KDE I too read all the reviews on this item and sought answers from other people that were much more tech savvy than I am concerning the same question you have posed and to no avail. I also read all the reviews on various other websites and was still confused, I decided to give it a try because it was the right fit for our media room, the price was right and this set had all the features we desired and having this item for a year now without any complaints I would highly recommend it to my friends and family without any reservations. Manny I would also recommend a high speed HDMI media cable and a high end blue-ray player, if you do not already have these items.

I own this TV and bought it in Thanks giving for 2400k on amazon with bundle. Yes the sound is not great, but i added a sony sound bar to fix that. But PQ is really amazing. I don't have issue with the stand at all, and we have wall mounted this.Really great TV

I have the 32" smart tv and yes it has great picture quality. Operation , adjustments and operation are are the same as any basic operation on most units.

I have to admit the Coby doesn't have the great sound of the new Panasonic I got earlier...not by a long shot..But turn it up and it's OK..I hooked mine to separate speakers so it helped to have a sound system hookup..But for the money it's a great 3rd TV for back room..Great picture..Now that did surprise me about Coby TV..
