Pros:
The looks: the Soundbar looks fantastic and sleek. The subwoofer is wireless, which helps with the aesthetic aspect. The surround speakers also look great, specially when installed on the wall.
Audio: obviously the audio is the main thing, i'm not a audiophile but I am totally satisfied with the product, it works exactly as I expected when I bought it. The subwoofer is powerful, the Soundbar has clean fantastic sound, even when I turn it down I don't miss anything. The surround speakers really do the job, it does a great job for immersion, for both movies and games.
Note: The audio is very dependent on the source, if the source of the audio is not surround, 5.1, dolby atmos etc, don't expect this to work wonders.
Note#2: I did some research and everywhere I looked they recommended using HDMI ARC/EARC to get the best out of this soundbar. Smart TVs Samsung/LG and many others have ARC/EARC, which has the most bandwidth so look for the HDMI ports on your TV, you should really use this connection.
Physical setup: this is really quite easy, everything you need is in the box, a small book detailing all the physical setup comes in the box. You only need the screwdrivers, if you plan on wall mounting anything, you will need the wall anchors and screws that fit to your wall. But the wall mounting supports are included for the soundbar and the small surround speakers.
Accesories: as I said (almost)everything your need is in the box. I especially appreciate that they include a high bandwidth HDMI cable that works with ARC/EARC with zero problems.
Cons:
Upward firing speakers: these speakers don't really do the job, they work by "bouncing" the sound to your ceiling, which depending on the material might actually absorb the sound. They totally rely on the content being played, not much content will have any use for these speakers so I wouldn't expect much sound really that comes from above.
Audio setup: this is apart from the physical setup, this is the configuration that you have to do on your TV and soundbar to get them to work. This is not plug and play, you have to go through all the options on both the sound bar and your TV.
A manual comes in the box, but it is really really unclear, as to all the setup options. A QR code comes that should send you to a web page that explains everything, said web page is nothing of the sort, it links to the product page that lists the product features, basically the same as the amazon product page.
As I said before I'm not an audiophile, and this was the first soundbar I have ever purchased, so it took a couple(5) of youtube tutorials to get this working like I needed it to. Even after the youtube tutorials, the final piece of the puzzle had to come from Vizio's own support, my rear surround speakers were not working as expected, I went into a chat with support and they did pinpoint my issue in about 3-4 questions, I had to choose a 2 specific options on my TV to get them working.
I will give recognition to Vizio chat support, or at least my agent, they really knew what to ask to get straight to the issue.
I'm giving 5 stars because evertything works just like I expected, the immersion is fantastic, and I have even got a few praises for this setup.

Very Powerful surround sound
First let me say, I did my research on each surround sound, ultimately went with this one, which is the most expensive one, because it had the most speakers and updated version.. NOTE, it took me 3 weeks to make a decision.I also have a 75’ Vizio TVWith that being said, I’m no surround sound guru, so this is just my opinion.. the sound feels exactly like I’m in a movie theater.. sound is very clear. Mouth movement matches what’s coming out the speakers! And with the settings you can make it as sharp as you want, depending on what you’re watching. The bass is BEHIND powerful… I have to turn it down cause it shakes my whole living room.As you can see in the picture I don’t use the remote because I can use my phone as the remote control.This system does come with mounting brackets but not the screws. Only screw that supports the speakers to the bracket.. luckily I save my extra screws.My ONLY complaint.. which is not enough to bring down to a 4 star.. but adjusting the setting was a little confusing, but I believe it’s the APP issue, because if I turn down the base/treble/volume lever it take a few seconds for it to happen… connecting for the first time instructions could be a little more clearer.When everything is all hooked up, I recommend playing Transformers as a good sound tester! AMAZING!…All in all, this is exactly what I was hoping for, if not better… very satisfied
