Not as advertised

I'm sick of paying for tv's and finding out they don't show all the stations that I have on my regular tv at home. I would at least think you could get the major network stations like ABC, NBC and CBS, but they don't. I don't have cable but I do have digital tv's and digital antenna, but it seem ridiculous to be expected to attach a 7" portable tv to my digital cable when it only services two 47" sets now. I have again wasted money on a new digital tv that doesn't work.
Don't waste your money on this one unless you live next to the tv stations. It asked how often I use it. I had to say "never" since I can't get my channels on it.

I love the tv but it won't work in my Rv as we would have to be close to a town to pick up a signal and we go to the mts for camping. So I may be returing it

This little TV looked interesting but I could not bring in a channel inside or outside. I had new batteries and it turned on but I could not bring in reception in major metro area.
I am not sure if this was defective or not but that was my experience. I returned the tv.

Good, clear picture. Only drawback is the stand is not adjustable and the screen slants too far back. But I can easily lean it up against something to make it the desired angle.

I love this little TV--had to hook it up to cable, since there were no local TV stations in my area. The picture is very clear & rich, but found the sound rather tinny. I ended up hooking up 2 computer speakers to it which solved that problem--now have stereo sound, which is great. This is the perfect size for my home office & don't miss any more news or my favorite shows. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a small TV at a small price.

So disappointed! Could only get a few channels and most were ones that I would not watch. The pictures were also fuzzy. The enclosed antenna didn't do a thing. I even went out and bought a digital antenna which had no effect either. I tried it in a few locations. I am going to return it soon!

I purchased the TV for my motorhome. I simply hooked up my motorhome antenna to the unit and did a station scan. Bingo. It's a great TV at great price.

I just got this yesterday and can get 7 channels in my area. Depending where I am inside my house one is clearer than others. I live about 10 miles from a TV Station that comes in clear.I may invest in a better antenna. Not a bad TV for 60 bucks !!

After a full night's charge, still received "No signal, move antenna" warning. Tried in two areas in Central Vermont, one from a high building with some population density, the other from a high hill with few residences, and both failed. Each test was with the antenna right in front an open window.

this is problably the best portable tv.it does almost everything.it just doesnt pick up very good signal in a car.but its small enough to put on a desk and its perfect for camping.this includes: tv remote, 2 built in speekers, antenna, lcd hdtv screen, pararental controlls, headphone jack, lithiom ion battery pack (rechargable), 9 volt charging adapter (can also be used whil pluged in).so my advice...if you are looking for a portable tv take this one.

Much clearer than I expected when attached to cable tv! Worse reception than I expected when using broadcast antenna. Dissapointed that it is not ment for using while in moving vehicle. Would like a 12volt cigarette lighter adapter so I can use when my car is stopped. All in all, it meets my need for a battery operated TV that will work for up to 100 minutes without being recharged. Good for small man cave!

I purchased this TV as a backup for my other portable. I've used it for a week, and can say that the picture is great. Reception with the antenna that came with it was so-so, but with a better antenna, I got more stations. For the price, this is a steal!
