Works great on 2nd try
By K. Alexander
I have owned several Vizio TV's and have always been impressed with the quality, given the price point. I just saw this model of Blu-Ray on Black Friday, and given the incredible price at Costxx, I went for it.

I found out in the next couple weeks that it would play an older Blu-Ray release beautifully, but couldn't play two new release titles.

Tech support was very easy to work with and ended up recommending I replace the unit. While being skeptical, given the pattern of behavior, I complied and found that the new unit played the previously unplayable releases just fine.

So, an initial bad unit, but good customer service (both Vizio and the retailer) made this a small inconvenience and I'm very happy -- again, keeping in mind the price that I paid.

Also, note that this unit seems to load discs very quickly - something that is worth noting as a differentiator between competitors. Standard def discs were even faster...a plus in my book

Incredible Value at the Price
By A. Genco
I have purchased many products from Amazon including my new Samsung 42" Plasma over the years. This review will be about a purchase somewhere else. Some things have to be.
I worried over my choice of a lower price Blue Ray player. I wanted quality, but knowing how much my wife and I use the thing, we'd never get to use the bells and whistles such as Netflix and Youtube. Consequently, I looked for good to better reviews on the bottom Sharp22 and the Vizio110. Both were on sale last week in the Orlando area for under $100.
The Sharp had to go by the wayside because there were too many reports of it sounding like a freight train when it started up. I grit my teeth and went down to the "B" club to purchase the Vizio. I am not easily scared away, but there were MANY of these in stock; and they were not returns either. I looked carefully at all the boxes on display (about thirty) and realized that these were players which had not been opened since final assembly at the factory in ...help me....China. I have had a bad relationship with those boys. Malaysia looked good.
The price was the point.
It set up quickly. I managed to correct a mistake that my Bright House installer had made when connecting the HD box. I even went so far as to purchase a 25' LAN cord to attach the player to my router right here in the living room. That would be used later with a special disc.
I turned it on and insterted a regular DVD. Harlem Nights came on quickly and even at that resolution, beautifully. The sound is the thing. I connected it up to the Yamaha Dolby 5.1 (Five Channels at 100 Watts RMS) which I purchased from Amazon about a year ago waiting for this day. I was not disappointed. The picture and sound were perfect.
Then I turned to the Blu Ray disc I had purchased just for the occasion. It is a copy of "Phantom of the Opera". I wanted to test the picture as well as the sound. Fantastic!!! The machine recognized the disc immediately. It took no longer than ten seconds before the menu came up on the screen.
The machine is very very quiet. I have only one thing against the unit. The remote control although a bit confusing has a very slender angle of view. That is to say that some remotes, Sony in particular, can be aimed approximately at the unit in question before something happens. This one has to be aimed (literally) at the player. It will work, but don't expect to turn to talk to someone and get back to a running player; it ain't a goona happen.
Buy this unit. Aside from the remote question, it is a sturdy, quiet, and well-behaved blu ray player. And unlike many reviews I have read over the past month, it plays both DVD's and Blu Ray DVD's without a stop, a hitch, or a glitch. It just plays right through. FORE!!
Get this machine if you don't care about a lot of extras and only require good performance.

A FINE ENTRY LEVEL BLU-RAY PLAYER
By L. Solomon
The VIZIO VBR110 Blu-Ray player is a more than satisfactory entry to the world of 1080P Blu-Ray material. As suggested in their advertising, this unit will "upgrade" the quality of your existing DVD collection. What this means is simply this- your DVD's will play flawlessly on this device and the output will fill the screen of any 1080i/p HDTV. Your DVD's will look pretty much the same as before, but will fill the 16x9 screen with more than acceptable resolution. The bottom line- you won't need to replace your DVD collection. While not as stunning as the Blu-ray experience, regular DVD's look excellent on this unit and as expected, blow away VHS performance. Please bear in mind that I have only used this player with an HDMI connector. I cannot vouch for performance when connected via component cable. I must assume that composite connection will degrade performance significantly.

To my surprise, Blu-ray discs on the VISIO look substancially better than 1080i broadcast material (at least when connected via HDMI). The difference is in the Progressive scanning, versus interlaced. This is what the "i" and "p" stand for following the 1080. Blu-ray discs look better than any cinematic experience I have ever seen- and that includes 70mm prints shown in the worlds finest theaters. Blu-ray has begun to threaten your local movie theater. This accounts in no small part to the proliferation of 3-D movies.

The VIZIO 110 is a solid and handsome device indeed. The elegant piano black front end is housed in a solid metal cabinet. This player has some heft to it, as opposed to many players that can be picked up with two fingers--and dented by the same. Gone are those screaming logos all over the faceplate, as will as useless displays, buttons and idiot lights. In fact, aside from the off-on and eject button, there are no other controls on the front end! Be forewarned- you'll need that remote control, since the VIZIO is practically useless without it. Programable remotes seem to work just fine.

The only performance criteria that I cannot comment on is the loading speed. It takes 10 seconds or so for your disc to load. Once loaded, the usual commands seem slow to those new to Blu-ray. You do get used to it, but the device will seem painfully slow next to your old DVD player. I understand that this is pretty common among Blu-ray players. Obviously the device is loading significantly more data than the nearly outdated 4.8 gig DVD format can hold.

If your current HDTV does NOT have internet/wifi capability, hold the phone! You'll want a player with internet functions that the model 110 does NOT have. If your HDTV has internet, no problem. Duplicity in this matter is of no use. Yes, WIFI TV is here now, and you are going to want those features--believe me.

Assuming that your HDTV already has WIFI, the VIZIO 110 is a lovely player. The price is right, especially considering that they throw in a HDMI cable at no charge. If you want Blu-ray NOW, I don't think you can go wrong with the VIZIO. A year from now, anything you buy today will be obsolete, so you might as well enjoy your savings and consider this a "first player". The model 110 is sure to be a handsome addition to your home theater system.

One last comment-- in my experience, VIZIO customer service is top notch. VIZIO is a real contender in the home electronics world. Don't be put off by the "new guy" label. They're all made in China anyway, so try to put label snobbery aside. VIZIO is here to stay and the design/style is world class!
