Vizio agreed to a $3 million class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims that it inflated its TV refresh rate in advertisements to make its products look more attractive to consumers.

Plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit claim that Vizio falsely represented its TVs as having a higher refresh rate than they actually do. This false advertising allegedly deceived consumers into thinking that the TVs had better picture quality and were therefore worth more money.

Vizio is a TV and entertainment company that sells its products at major retailers such as Best Buy, Walmart and Target.

Vizio hasn’t admitted wrongdoing but agreed to a $3 million settlement to resolve the false advertising class action lawsuit.
