While Vizio often promotes itself as "America's #1 LCD HDTV Company," we are quick to point out that this is sometimes the case with unit sales of LCD TVs, but not total revenues. The reason for the difference is that many of Vizio's top selling models are very small inexpensive TVs. Within the 55" LCD category the company faces some tough competition.
The new VF552XVT from Vizio has the latest and greatest features that the company hopes will keep Vizio competing with the Tier 1 manufacturers. This series has LED local dimming backlighting, a 240Hz refresh rate (listed as 480Hz but that is back light manipulated spec), and a new black drive system. And this model also contains a new Bluetooth remote control and Internet functionality options. This is the second tier feature and price offering from Vizio for 2010/2011, the XVT Pro series Vizios are the step up from the XVT series.
The VF552XVT did a very nice job with HQV processor testing with little distortion as with this shot from our Video Resolution Loss test
Cops from the 480i version of Superbad shows saturated uniforms taking on a black rather than navy appearance and without much definition.
An excellent shot from the 480i DVD version of Sphere shows punchy blacks and good contrast.
A good shot of Matt Damon in The Departed shows slightly washed out flesh tones.
The VF552XVT is a hefty 4.5" deep but has a nice thin gloss black frame.
