Up for Review: Vizio VA370M. This elegantly designed 37” HDTV is packed with features such as full 1080p High Definition resolution and 6,500:1 dynamic contrast ratio giving you crystal clear, razor sharp images. The piano black finish make it the perfect addition to any room.

When it comes to value, Vizio can’t be beat. We were impressed with the LCD 1080p HD display as well as its ability to handle 1080i, 720p and standard definition 480p resolution. Our reviewers agreed that the televisions produced the best images in 1080i and 720p. We were impressed with the televisions sound quality produced via the internal SRS Trusurround technology. However those looking for a true surround sound experience should invest in a stand alone stereo system. All in all, we were impressed with the critical sound and display components of the Vizio VA370M.

Vizio VA370M

Full 1080P High Definition resolution gives you over 2 million pixels, making the clarity and detail of your picture razor sharp. ECO HD™ exceeds the current Energy Star Guidelines by 15% below Energy Star 3.0, saving you money on your utility bills while limiting the impact on our planet. The Vizio VA370M is a great HDTV for the money.

This LCD is one of Vizio best selling models. We agree with the thousand of consumers who have purchased this set, the investment is worth return!
