Strengths: Good Picture. Picks Up Many Channels. Battery Life.
Weakness: Must View Directly At It For Decent Picture. No Channel Indicator. Volume could be louder.
I think as a small portable TV, this Casio does the job quite well. I am able to pick up more channels than I can with my large tv and antenna. The picture is quite good as well although you must look at the tv directly otherwise the picture will have distortion and is not viewable. Battery life has been good thus far but it does give the option of using an ac adapter. Not really knowing what...
Strengths: LIGHWEIGHT, COMPACT, GOOD PICTURE, GREAT RECEPTION, GOOD SOUND.
Weakness: NONE
HEY, THIS IS A GREAT LITTLE GADGET THAT WORKS GOOD FOR WHAT IT IS. GOOD WAY TO PASS TIME WHEN THE JOB GETS BORING. THE PICTURE IS PRETTY GOOD FOR SUCH A SMALL SCREEN AND THE SOUND IS LOUND ENOUGH EXCEPT IN NOISY ENVIRONMENTS.
Strengths: Portability; size; decent basic features/functionality for the price
Weakness: Passive matrix; lack of channel indicator; reception quality from built-in antenna
I bought this handheld color tv to take with me on occasional trips where I won't have access to a tv, like maybe on a camping trip. I got it for around $40 after rebate during the last black friday sale, a decent buy for basic features and functionality. The 2.3" screen is about 1.5" by 2.5", good enough screen size for viewing up to an arm's length. It has a telescopic rod antenna that you can...
Strengths: 2.3" color screen, This is a little TV that CAN DO!!
Just as good is the CSO 770, and it is a little cheaper. If you MUST have antenna inputs, this will meet that need, but an antenna runs counter to a Pocket TV product. Good product, though!
Strengths: Clear picture, digital channel selection, cost, portability
Weakness: screen is small, short battery life, pixelation of images due to quality of lcd
This has been the best purchase I think i've made in recent times. It is really an awesome picture. It's a tiny lcd screen, there is pixelation but what do you want for under 100.00? It's an awesome buy that will let me catch my favorite shows anywhere I go in the country.
Strengths: Portability, Strong signal.
Weakness: No channel memory, Picture not so clear, No AC adaptor
I got this portable TV from my friend as a gift before Thanksgiving. When I first open the box, I was excited because this TV is so "cute". It is a wonderful gift. According to its mannual, I put four AA batteries in it. I thought four is too much for this cute TV. I don't know to deal with this if I wanna bring this out when camping or traveling. Then I registered my product on its website and...
Strengths: Good picture quality, good reception, small size, light weight.
Weakness: No way of knowing what channel you're on - always having to retune it after turning it off - mono headphone sound.
I bought this unit to use with my camcorder. I was going to use it as an external video screen. I read reviews and thought it had an A/V jack on it...it doesn't. However, it is still a very good TV. In my area I could pick up about 8 channels, 7 of them very well. The picture quality is clear, some text on screen does get fuzzy but overall it's very acceptable for a tv this size. The sound from...
Strengths: Easy to use. Picture is good.Very compact and the stand is a good addition.
Weakness: there was no DC or AC adaptors included. A kind of bare bones box etc.
The service from the selling company was great. I didn't even have time to use the 'tracking' service before the package arrived. The TV is easy to use. Picture is good. Very compact and the stand is a good addition. However, there was no DC or AC adaptors included. A kind of bare bones box etc.
Strengths: Portability; picture quality
Weakness: lack of channel indicator, no channel preset
It is good for travel. What is annoying me is that I have to press the tune button to get to my favorite channel every time I turn on the it or switch between VHF and UHF. But it is still a decent product for the performance/price.

Strengths: Clear Picture, Easy to Hold, Small, Automatic Tuning, Small Stand in Back
Weakness: Uses a lot of power, no video inputs
This TV is pretty good overall. Based on its price and what it can do its a good deal. Automatic tuning, TV stand, and a nice pocket size make this TV pretty versatile. On the negative side, the batteries get eaten up by this TV. It takes 4 AA Batteries and they normally last a maximum of 5 hours (non-rechargeable). The TV is also fairly heavy because of the fact that its carrying the batteries....
