RCA RT1970 19-Inch 720p 60Hz LED TV

Comment

This TV is exactly as advertised. I ordered it on the 25th and received it on the 27th. Very easy to set up and excellent picture, see photos. I have had several small kitchen TVs over many years. This is the best yet and for the lowest price yet. One very important feature this TV has is its Viewable Angle (H/V): 170 degrees/160 degree. What that means is you can see the picture from the sides, above, and below. The dimensions listed on the Amazon site are all accurate, including the 19 inch TV size. You have to know how to measure TVs if you are going to compare them while shopping. One suggestion for sound on any small TV is plug some small powered computer speakers into the earphone jack. I hide the speakers behind the TV. I even did this on my ceiling hung master bath TV by attaching them to the back of the TV. No TV in this price range with the very narrow bezel around the picture will produce the sound of a large TV, but the computer speakers solve the problem. Please disregard the one star rating because the reason given is inaccurate. It should be deleted.

Bought for the bedroom. Wanted a DVD combo and settled on the RCA. While there was only one review on Amazon, there were plenty mixed reviews online, basically about the sound. If you change the standard settings it gets much better than straight out of the box, however, you do have to turn up the volume for DVDs. Perhaps a sound bar might help? The picture quality is great for the small size. Im very happy with this model and think it was the perfect choice for the bedroom and my needs.

This was a gift for my 97-year-old mom, whose former TV/DVD player had failed after many years use. I chose what seemed to be a nice simple product that would not confuse her, from a brand that she would recognize and trust. So far so good!

Purchased this for a small bedroom tv where my grandchildren could watch movies on the built in dvd player. When watching regular tv the sound and picture are great. HOWEVER, when it comes to watching the DVD player the sound is horrible!!!! We had it turned all the way up to the maximum sound level and you still could barely hear anything at all. I had this for several weeks and last weekend was the first time we had tried to watch a movie and OF COURSE the amount of time allowed to return it has passed so now we are stuck with it.

There is a lot thats good about this little TV. The picture is fantastic on mine...much better than expected. Very crisp and sharp. The color was a bit too intense and saturated but a little adjustment and its now perfect. The TV is lightweight (feels cheap) but what do you expect for a $100 price point? I use mine in the kitchen and it tucks nicely into a corner. The only real issue is the sound. It is as tinny as other reviewers have noted but that wasnt enough to persuade me to send it back. I had some cheap computer speakers I wasnt using, plugged them in, hid them out of sight behind the TV and now the sound is great. Problem solved.

Returned these, very little volume on any of the four purchased, dont know what was up with that. We thought we hooked something up wrong, but that wasnt the case. Other people said the same in their reviews after we purchased these. Very disappointed, as these were supposed to be Christmas gifts for our grandkids.

I was looking for a new TV for the bedroom. I was debating between this TV and the the 39" Samsung for the same price. I was leary because there was no reviews yet on this TV. I could not be happier with the purchase. The picture is awesome and the sound quality for a flat screen is great. I would definitely reccomend this to a friend or family member.

I bought this television for my roommate (now fiancé) for his birthday and he absolutely loved it. It does take a short moment after turning it on for it to actually register that it is on, but thats minor. After about a month of having it, during moving it, it did get dropped though and the base broke off as well as a few other parts along the bottom. We rigged it up so we could hang it on the wall (without a wall mount as that was another part that was broken). Still works like a charm. The picture is very clear and obviously from we put it through, it can handle a bit of aggressiveness. Great product.

After 2 1/2 years the TV is struggling to turn on. If I unplug it and plug it back in after a minute that eventually works, but based on the other comments its just a matter of time before it wont turn on at all. I should feel lucky its lasted this long since for many others it only worked for a few months. But I expect a TV to last at least 5 + year and really much longer. It sounds more expensive to fix than its worth. Wont buy RCA again.
