Background and Identification

The Vizio e480i television is a 48-inch television produced by Vizio, Inc., which was founded in 2002 in California. The Vizio e480i is classified as a smart TV and can be identified by model number E480i-B2. The television has a full-array LED backlight with six Active LED Zone local dimming zones.

The Vizio e480i model has a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels. It includes two 10-Watt speakers and built-in Wi-Fi. The television includes three HDMI ports (two on the bottom of the television and one on the side), one component port, one composite port, one Ethernet port, one USB 2.0 port with 0.5 Amp charging capabilities, and one TV tuner input. It also includes one analog audio output and one digital audio output. The Vizio e480 television was sold in two variants; the Vizio e480i includes the Vizio Internet Apps Plus features while the ‘E480’ model does not. The non-internet version (E480) loses one HDMI input, but the versions are otherwise identical.

According to a review of the Vizio e480i from LCDTVBuyingGuide.com, the television has thin bezels and an attractive look with strong Picture Mode qualities. However, the television may have a clicking fan noise when the television is in standby mode. Additionally, the television may produce a high-pitched whining coming from the display when powered on.
