Sound

The VIZIO has DTS StudioSound. Amazon reviews complain that the sound is a bit tinny, and many reviewers purchased a separate soundbar or speaker system to improve the audio quality.

Ports & Expandability

The VIZIO D24F-G1 only has 2 HDMI ports, less than the Sony X900E. It has built-in wifi, an ethernet port, and a USB port for flash drives or keyboards. The VIZIO’s main attraction is the built-in Chromecast and voice control capabilities that make changing the channel a breeze.

Value

At $200, the VIZIO D24F-G1 is a very budget-friendly TV. The LG 22LJ4540 TV is a bit cheaper, but the VIZIO is still a fantastic deal for a small smart TV. A high definition 4K HDMI cable is included in the box. But the real deal is the 100+ channels included with the TV!
