The VIZIO XVT3D554SV 55″ (54.64″ diagonal) is packed with VIZIO Internet Apps and offers green living with great technology. Aside from its high definition and superior 3D technology, VIZIO’s product is invading the market with a different twist: it is the market’s ECO HD as it exceeds the ENERGY STAR Guidelines today. This feature will not only help the environment in the long run, it will also help you save up some money from electricity bills. If you want an excellent 3D TV and at the same time save up on electricity, you should consider this TV.
3D Display
Coming with the glossy, sleek, and fashionable slim screen is the excitement of viewing shows in 3D. Games are also in 3D, so playing them will give a more natural feeling and look – just like you are part of the game itself. VIZIO’s 480Hz SPS Smooth Motion technology provides you a speed of 480 scenes per second, giving you a better look in action movies and sport programs. This feature produces enhanced frame rate on the TV screen and delivers impressive clarity and blur-free fast action scenes. Remember that you need to have 3D glasses to view 3D content and it comes separately from the TV. Try the VIZIO VSG102 Full HD 3D Rechargeable glasses which is what most VIZIO customers use.
Imaging
VIZIO offers 1080 FULL high definition resolution that is capable of giving you more than two million pixels. This helps you see every picture sharply and clearly. Meanwhile, the Smart Dimming feature of VIZIO helps you see richer colors – from the dark shades to the brighter ones. This technology by VIZIO controls each block of LEDs to give you a crisper image every time. However, some customers find the TV screen to be too prone to showing fingerprints and dusts are more visible.
Not to mention, sound is also exceptional with this TV set. It has the SRS TruSurround HD feature that is set to complete your HDTV experience by the immersive virtual high definition surround sound. But of course, if you really want home cinema entertainment, purchasing a stand-alone surround sound system would be the best choice.
VIZIO Internet Apps (V.I.A.)
With its built-in WiFi, you can easily connect to the Internet in the comfort of your living room. The VIZIO Internet Apps feature lets you watch movies and TV shows online and even listen to music. You can also access the latest news, sports and weather in your TV set. Applications like Netflix, Amazon, Rhapsody, Flickr, Facebook and Twitter are easy to browse and use with VIZIO. For this Internet feature, VIZIO utilizes the latest 802.11N Dual Band Wireless Networking protocol.
Customized Bluetooth Universal Remote Control
Another out of the box feature of VIZIO’s 55-incher is the customized Bluetooth remote that sports a slide out QWERTY keypad. This does not only enable you to control the TV, but it also allows you to type onscreen at any place you may be inside the room. However, some costumers suggest improvements could be made in the remote control, like putting up a backlight to let users see characters clearly. Some users like the QWERTY keypad of the remote and say that despite this addition in the remote control, it is still very lightweight.
This 3D TV could be a gem in your household. You have 3D and cinema-like home entertainment and at the same time, and still save some money on electricity costs. The environmental friendly touch does not end with VIZIO exceeding the current ENERGY STAR Guidelines. This piece of appliance also avoids utilizing mercury, which is an environmentally harmful substance, unlike other brands with LED backlights. If you are environmentally conscious or just thinking about long-term costs, then put this one up for consideration.

It is true that you need 3D glasses to view 3D contents unless it is glasses free 3D TV, but it is not true that glasses don’t always come separately from the TV. Some TVs include 2 to 4, or even 14pairs of glasses with their TV sets. For example, LG. I thought Vizio was the same, but it appears to be not. Usually, the glasses tend to be not included in active TV sets because they are expensive(around 100bucks) but included in passive sets in most of the time.
