For their P-Series TVs, Vizio partnered with Google to ditch the remote control in favor of its new Vizio SmartCast app, which works on any Android and iOS device.

All my tv's are vizio
80"
60"
55"
42"
32"
But this one sucked
Took it back
Will the remote work on the new 2018 P series tvs, since the remote is not included.
Why we dont have vizio in indonesia???
Can you use your cable box on it
Which is best m series or p series
Is it a Vizio tab
that Tablet is no longer offered in 2017
any HDMI port & USB
There was no remote like this included. Got it at Walmart new, or supposedly new, but nothing but a little xrt 132 remote or like it. it was a 4k ultra high definition model. the volume is all over the place and the little remote is unclear what button does what.
that's not true. Ours came with the tiny remote with about 8 buttons and was bought in December 2016. can't adjust anything. what's up Vizio? why is This? what do we do now?
Question. Can I buy a standard vizio remote that will perform the functions of the smart phone. Bought the tv for my parents and they do not have a smart phone. I guess I should have paid more attention. Thought the smartphone was a feature. Not my only choice to fine tune settings on the tv. Picture is great, but if they need to change something on the tv they need to call me. If anyone has an answer I would appreciate it!
Does the regular remote some in the M series as well? or is it only with the P?
I just bought an M series Vizio with this thing and it is almost impossible to use. It acts like a phone, not a remote. Mine will not even let me use the tv functions.
I can't believe how vizio is trying to sell the smartcast thing as a feature. It's the worst cost cutting measure in the history of televisions. In fact, these sets can no longer be legally marketed as TVs.
With that said, it really doesn't make a difference to you if you are going to use your own set top box or receiver (or both).
As for the TV, E series is just junk, I wouldn't spend any money on that.
The M is beautiful. It's quite a bit better than all mid range and some high end TVs out there. There are only 4 TV sets I would buy over the M. The P series, samsung quantum dot (k8000), sony 930(but only if you want 3D) and the LG B6.
LG B6 is my favorite, but it's a bit small. So the P series would be my favorite if you consider the size. The samsung is probably a good 3rd choice, but I never spent any money on it. It doesn't support DV.
Vizio smartcast totally sucks. Moron designed the smartcast software with limited tv controls…try to change channels. my next tv will be Samsung
I mean…. It's just a really expensive Chromecast..
hi. I have an E class tv. can I use this remote control with it? and were can I get it? Thanks
The M-Series now also comes with the SmartCast tablet.
Lol you can do that on just about any TV with any tablet, They aren't doing anything new.
Didnt ditch it still comes with it just comes also with a tablet remote and I love it!
does the tablet include the AMAZON PRIME app? or can it be downloaded?
I'm watching this on the tablet remote that came with my 4k TV XD
Jesus Verge if you're going to use such a good song for your video you can at least tell us the name of the song!
It'd be cool if they'd not give me a $200 tablet and just let me use my Roku 4 instead.
I wish it had a IR blaster for other A/V components.
Not bad for a cheap 4K variant. Would make for a nice secondary to my Samsung. At least you'll care to not lose and be careful with the remote. Even if you do, there's an iOS app etc, so no worries there. Nice idea.
this its the actual tv an android tv forgeting the tablet the tv the tv its an android tv!?
But you gotta charge the remote, it's not really helpful if you have to charge it all the time.
Just got the 65" version of this tv and I am very impressed, never before did I think I would buy a Vizio but this is one quality product.
take my money!!!
No tuner? Then what's the "Live TV" option you glossed over when moving around the interface?
and how about the tv self? display is for me most important on a tv and not the remote
if you lose that remote you are certainly fucked
This does not seem new being if you have a Chromecast. Plus Sony has it built into there new 4k TVs
But can you cast anything higher than 1080p to it?
Such an excellent idea. Makes perfect sense. Why bundle a TV with useless apps that never get updated and most of the apps on the television do not get used. Brilliant.
You can do all that if you own a Xbox One or PS4 and use your own phone or tablet
No tuner?
