VIZIO 24-inch D-Series FHD LED Smart TV w/Bluetooth Headphone Capable, AMD FreeSync & Alexa Compatibility, D24fM-K01, 2023 Model

Diamond in the Rough
These features at this price, we are at a very good point for technology. Great picture, decent sound (when Volume Leveling is enabled in the sound settings). And, it actually IS an HDR TV! (However), i tried multiple things to enable HDR on my PC, adding a registry setting to enable HDR, something that can happen when upgrading to Win10, look it up for more info. Going through the TVs settings. Nothing seemed to work.. but then i had a thought, try a different HDMI cable. DING DING! Even though i was using a Vizio branded HDMI cable which should have allowed HDR, switching cables immediately allowed HDR to be selectable. If you have trouble with HDR your HDMI cable may be the cause. (HDR works with the Vizio branded HDMI btw after initially being enabled by switching cables)Regarding picture and HDR.Firstly, you SHOULD lower the Backlight to at least 50%, between 50 and 75% will do. Mostly because its way too bright, but also because lowering it will lengthen the lifespan of the LEDs compared to always being at 100%. And yes, BACKLIGHT, Not the Normal Brightness, that should be left alone and kept at 50, so only lower the Backlight.Secondly, HDR. When its turned on using a PC things can get EXTREMELYYYY BRIGHTTTT! Especially White! As my 1st experience with HDR i had no idea what to expect, So you will definitely want to lower its effect either through Windows HDR settings or through the TVs specific HDR setting, which i suggest doing.Games look AMAZING on this TV (picture settings should be changed to suit your needs), but everything looks great including Netflix etc. But games along with HDR and the TVs Game Mode and Low Latency mode is where it truly shines i think.And thats about it.. The only thing i dont like about this TV is it doesnt have an ethernet port, but WIFI 5 does just fine, but being able to use 1 or the other as a backup would have been nice.. Obviously a decent Router/Connection will help with this.Last Update: Regarding what i said about Sound still applies WITH Sound Leveling enabled, BUT as the TV allows connecting to Bluetooth Headphones AND Speakers that is the definitive way to go if you require better sound quality. The headphone jack also allows you to use an Aux cable with a bluetooth speaker which i highly recommend, WIRED audio quality will ALWAYS be better than Wireless/Bluetooth and its actually what i use when i gave both a try.Another Last update: Alexa usage, I grouped the TV with my office lighting so that when i say office on both the tv and the light turn on, same for saying office off, when im going out or going to bed they both turn off at the same time. I find this very handy instead of having to use the remote to do so, especially if in a hurry.And a bit of advice that EVERYONE can use whether buying this tv or not. As with most electronics it is BEST and recommended to use a decent Surge Protector to protect your electronics. Protecting our expensive toys is always a good thing to do.Another Update: Power usage, Normal PC/Built in Smart App usage you are looking at about 20watts, with the TV off (depending on settings, i.e Alexa control enabled etc, its around 10watts, you can turn those settings off to further reduce draw while Off if you so choose. So its very capable when it comes to using it with backup power or even a 150w Inverter and a 20V battery (Craftsman) for example as i tested earlier to gauge power usage.Latest update: Now using a 120W 2.0 Sound Bar with an Optical cable connected to the TVs optical port, cant beat a $40 ONN Walmart sound bar on clearance for $17, bought 2 as i knew they would sell quickly :). Definitely better than using an Aux splitter to connect 2 Bluetooth speakers for “stereo” sound, though they did do the job very nicely. Anything is better than the TVs speakers though, but even the TVs speakers can sound decent if set up the way i previously mentioned, this probably applies to similar Vizio TVs as well assuming they have the same sound settings.Jul 10th 2024: Tomorrow (11th) will mark 1 Year of owning this TV, absolutely no issues, was definitely worth getting. Hard to believe its already been a year. My only issue as previously mentioned is it doesnt have an ethernet port, dont get me wrong, WIFI 5 is PLENTY, but it would have been nice to have a backup connection down the road, just in case.Quality Surge Protection or even a small $60 300watt UPS with it built in is a must have for our toys, keep your tech safe.One last thing regarding VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), this is a CONSOLE specific function, it is not available with PC use, Consoles that have that feature Only. In case anyone was curious about it or complained they couldn’t get it to work on PC, that would be why.One very last thing, the remote has a button lockout, lets say you sit on it for an extended period or gets lost under a cushion etc so on and a number of the buttons are being pressed during that time, to save battery it locks the buttons. So if you try to use the remote and it doesnt work and the batteries are not an issue that would likely be why, just remove a battery and put it back in and the remote will function again. This might apply for future Vizio TV remotes as well so something to consider before seeking tech support.Hope this helps <3

Great TV but there is on caveat.
I purchased this as a replacement for our Boat. The original TV received would turn itself on shortly after turning it off. Also intermittently the TV would go into setup mode on its own. I called Vizio customer service/support, which is very good I must say. They sent a replacement TV which fixed both problems. The reason for four stars instead of five comes from the inability to put your own apps on the TV. In our home we use over the air TV and an app called HDHOME RUN. In order to use this app or any other app that is not included on the TV you have to cast it. If I were not using this on the boat, but instead in the home, it would have been a deal breaker and sent back. To cast as you know requires another device to do so. That said what I do like is the Watch free TV app that it comes with. There are many stations you can watch over the internet with no antenna. Picture quality is very good and I like the Buetooth feature for adding an external soundbar speaker. This TV will satisfy most, the people it will not satisfy are who want to add their own apps.
