Cons
Con Poor build quality
In terms of overall build quality, the Hisense H9E Plus resembles an old, low-end TV. The back of the TV is built from soft and cheap plastics and there are no integrated cable routing solutions present in this TV.
Con Bad for group watching
The VIZIO D-Series isn't the best TV to watch with a crowd because those who sit at an angle to the TV will experience degraded image because of the TV's lousy viewing angles. As soon as the angle between the viewer and a TV gets more significant than 13 degrees, the black levels start to degrade. This is a common problem for the VA TVs.
Con Can't fight glare
The VIZIO D-Series is a poor choice for bright rooms because the TV's peak brightness is not high enough to fight glare emitted by other sources of light.
