In 2006 Vizio was virtually an unknown brand. Fast forward to the second quarter of 2007 and Vizio electronics sold the most LCD TV's compared with any other maker including Samsung and Sony. The total number of LCD televisions that Vizio sold in the USA in Q2 2007 was 606,402. This was 76% more than they sold in quarter one of the same year.
A news story published on February 20, 2009 stated that Vizio ranked second in the US flat panel TV market in the fourth quarter of 2008. They came ahead of Sony and credit goes to increased brand recognition thanks to new marketing efforts.
Wal-Mart is a big seller of Vizio TV's and make up a large portion of their sales. In the US, Vizio took up 14.3% of LCD market sales in Q4 2008.
You can credit Vizio has having a major role in the reduction of LCD TV prices in the past few years. Thanks to them and their cheaper price tags we are also seeing some big name brands dropping their prices - but not quite as low as Vizio.
The stigma that comes attached with a non-recognizable brand as being cheap and low quality is something that Vizio has shrugged off to leap into the place of one of the top selling manufacturers of LCD TV's in the world.
Plasma TV's
Vizio also made plasma televisions however announced in February 2009 that they are going to stop manufacturing plasma TVs in favor or ramping up production of LCD models. You can still buy Vizio plasma models from their website, and they are also currently running a promotion whereby they are giving away $1 million worth of plasma TV's.
Vizio electronics products are of a high quality and consumers can save considerable amounts by choosing their products over the more well known, yet much more expensive (and often no better quality) competitors.
