The Vizio VF551XVT 55 inches has certainly surprised many by the high ratings from many happy consumers. And this is for many good reasons. First, the Vizio VF551XVT is, like most Vizio products, an inexpensive TV considering the type of technology it uses : a local dimming LED-based LCD. The TV itself can create very deep levels of black tones and is less blooming than many other local dimming TV models. The Vizio VF551XVT produces relatively accurate colors and has a solid dejudder processing system (great for gamers). It offers plenty of connectivity : five HDMI and one PC input. Finally, the Vizio VF551XVT is energy efficient.

Nevertheless, the VF551XVT is not flawless. One of the major down of the TV is the fluctuating backlight between program content. Also, the tv has a below-average shadow details and less picture controls than other high-end tvs.

In summary, while the local dimming, LED-backlit Vizio VF551XVT is not flawless, it still exhibits a great LCD picture and in the end is one of the best LCD TVs on the market that will give you plenty of quality for your money.
