The Vizio SV470XVT is a fairly typical HDTV, with a black finish. It's not going to be the star of your home theatre setup from an aesthetics perspetive, but it won't stand out as ugly either.

Front
The front of the Vizio SV470XVT is bezeled in glossy black. Directly below the display on the bezel is a Vizio logo that lights up when you turn on the TV. Below that are the HDTVs speakers.


The front of the Vizio SV470XVT is clean and simple.

Back
On the back of the Vizio SV470XVT you'll find most of the connections for the HDTV arranged in one long strip near the bottom of the back.


The only major feature on the back is the strip of ports near the bottom.

Left
On the left side of the HDTV you'll find the on-TV controls.


On the left side youll find the on-tv controls.

Right
The right side of the Vizio SV470XVT has a shorter strip of ports for easy access.


The right side sports a few additional ports for eaasy access.

Stand/Mount
The Vizio SV470XVT has a simple stand that comes attached to the TV. You can remove the stand for wall mounting, but will need to purchase a wall mounting kit that is compatible.


The Vizio SV470XVT's stand is removable so you can mount it on a wall.

Controls
The on-TV controls are found on the left side. From top to bottom you have Power, Menu, Ch+, Ch-, Vol+, Vol- and Input.


The on-tv controls are found on the left side of the Vizio SV470XVT.

Remote
The Vizio SV470XVT's remote is slim for most of its length with a bulge at the back and a glossy black face.


The Vizio SV470XVT's remote has a glossy black finish and is relatively thin.

In The Box (8.0)
The Vizio SV470XVT ships with the standard set of accessories including manuals and a power cord. A nice extra that most HDTVs lack is an HDMI cable. The TV was easy to get out of the box, and the stand is attached so no assembly is required.

Aesthetics (6.0)
The Vizio SV470XVT is not particularly attractive, but it's not ugly either. The glossy black bezel and textured speakers should blend in nicely with most decors, but it won't be a show piece.
