Vizio models are low cost and lack the features of some of their more expensive counterparts. They are passive types so their resolution in 3D mode is only 540 lines but in 2D, the full HD resolution is restored. This is a feature of passive types and LG televisions share the same limitation of 540 line 3D.

Vizio is seen as good value for money if you are buying a television on a tight budget.

All 3D TVs are priced in the same range but for less expensive models, take a look at Vizio who make some low cost passive 3D televisions. Like the more expensive LG passive televisions, they use only 540 line resolution in 3D mode but if you can live with that restriction, they are good value for money.
