XVT3D Series by David-B.-Vargas--DDDL (May, 2011)Yes, it suffers from clouding wich is normal for an edge lit TV this size, but unless you enjoy watching your screen with a permanent black image on it, you never notice it on regular viewing.
XVT3D Series by c|net (Feb, 2011)This review will apply only to the 65-inch XVT3D650SV since it basically stands alone in Vizio's lineup, with no other screen sizes that have identical features.
thickness
XVT3D Series by dark_knight (Dec, 2011)The colors are realistic, the black has depth, the contrast is great( I believe it is 10mill).
Performance Real world tests of Vizio XVT3D Series
power consumption
XVT3D Series by K.-Brantley (Mar, 2011)Might be worth shopping around for the best price.-TV has a game mode (but read below, it doesn't make a huge difference because there is still some input lag).
XVT3D Series by Daniel-Davis (Sep, 2011)Overall great value and performance, best TV I've ever had.

3d
Vizio XVT3D Series 47" | Rated 100% by by Leslie-Bailey (Sep, 2011)For only $100 more plus a free pair of 3D glasses, I chose the 3D version just in case we ever decided to use the option and then lucked out in getting the floor model and saving another $125 so ended up paying less than the 2D version and got a free pair of glasses.

Picture quality
Vizio XVT3D Series 47" | Rated 64% by by c|net (Feb, 2011)Netflix, Vudu, and Amazon VOD in 2D all exhibited the picture quality we expected, and we appreciated that many picture controls were available-including picture modes, backlight level and advanced controls like dejudder, but excluding contrast, brightness, color, and so on.
