Vizio this week unveiled its 2009 HDTV lineup, consisting of its first HDTV with 240-Hz technology and an LED backlight.
Although sometimes considered a second-tier brand compared to multinational giants like Sharp, Sony, and Toshiba, Vizio has twice been recognized as the most popular brand of HDTVs within the United States, primarily because the company concentrates on offering inexpensive TVs that contain the same features that its more expensive competitors have, as well as a sales channel that includes Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer.

The XVT lineup is Vizio’s premier brand, with the flagship VF551XVT the only one of Vizio’s HDTVs to include both an LED backlight as well as 240-Hz technology, which promises to smooth the displayed image even more than 120-Hz technology. Because of the large number of models, we’re going to use the blog format to our advantage and present Vizio’s lineup as a series of graphics, ranging from the $749, 32-inch SV320XVT on up to the VF551XVT.
Vizio also announced that it has filed a patent-infringement suit against LG Electronics, and that a similar case against Funai is moving ahead.
