Supersonic SC-1311 White 13.3-Inch LED Widescreen HDTV 1080p Television with HDMI Input

Comment

What a treat. This arrived yesterday and is up and running in our kitchen. We did not attach cable or an antenna. We used the Roku stick, and it is working like a charm. (In order to use the Roku stick, it is necessary to use an extender which is free from Roku.) I would have given it 5 stars, but the cute little thing seems confused in the volume department. In order to mute the volume, we must use the remote that came with the TV. After its muted, even though the Roku app on the iPhone works to change most other options, it wont work to restore the volume after a mute. So, for volume we must juggle between the iPhone, the Roku remote, and the TV remote. That is not a big problem except when the phone rings. It would be nice if the stand could tip a bit or swerve, but for our purposes, as an extra TV in the kitchen, its a perfect option. Now, lets hope it continues to function properly over time.

Ignore the comments about the sound. Its a small TV not a living room monster.

So glad I purchased this. The picture is so much clearer than other brands. Well worth the extra $15. Since it’s for my kitchen, sound quality isn’t really that important. On the one occasion I wanted a boost I just hooked it up to a speaker and it was fantastic.

I bought a lemon and had to return it. I did Plug and Play for Setup. Set to AIR and 112 channels registered. When I used the remote to change channels it went to a different unselected channel. This was a consistent response. The only way to get a desired channel was to repeatedly push the channel Up/Down button. The volume was inconsistent and would be low at maximum then a bit higher at maximum. The text in news scroll bar was so small that it was illegible beyond 5 feet viewing distance. It is enroute back to seller. The picture was very sharp with good color.

can not be programmed to work the on/off with other remotes, I called the factory, there is no solution...picture is good, the sound is bad ! so I added small speakers to it..you get what you pay for, I could not find any better TV because the other brands are exactly the same, they are all made by one factory, so dont bother looking for different brand of similar design...

This little TV actually works better than I expected. Its too bad there arent more small (sub 19") TVs on the market from major manufacturers. We took a chance on SuperSonic and fortunately did not get a dud like some reviewers. The picture quality is very good. The sound is good at mid-volume, but becomes tinny at higher volume, and causes the shell of the unit to vibrate. The system menu has lots of useful settings. There are various input ports, including component, HDMI, and USB. (which can double as power for a streaming stick) Naturally only one of each type of port. Antenna reception is better than my big TV BUT this is only if its in the same spot. We completely lose reception if we try to move it to another room. SEE ANTENNA NOTE BELOW. Overall the TV is so light that it feels like a toy. That is a good thing, but you need to be careful when touching it that you dont knock it over. Just focusing on the negative points since otherwise its very good: - It doesnt come with an antenna! This is annoying since all the competitors do include one. You will need an antenna if you want over-the-air channels. I was able to make a paperclip antenna and that works, but only in certain locations in the house. It works if you connect to existing antenna in a known good location, do the auto channel search, then disconnect from that antenna and plug in a mini antenna (or paperclip). However if you move away from the strong signal area it will cut out completely, and even moving the antenna may not get it back. This is a problem with Digital TV. - Its very light so youd think its portable, but its not. Beside the antenna issue above, IT IS NOT BATTERY POWERED, so you need to plug it in with the attached adapter. - The remote control is too big. It has one of those giant 30 button things youd expect to come with a complete entertainment center. Some people might like this, but ideally a small white TV should come with a small white remote. They could even put a hook on the TV to attach the remote when youre not using it. But no, it has a giant black remote thats taller than the picture itself. Despite this, I cant find any simple "previous" channel button. There is a Favorites list and button, but it seems to lose its memory any time you unplug the TV. If you just want a small TV to watch streaming video or play games on, and are planning to keep it in one spot, this should be perfect. I was hoping for something more portable, and primarily want to pick up over-the-air channels. I have ordered the "Supersonic SC-2812" and it will probably replace this.

Has a nice clear, sharp picture and perfect to fit on top of refrigerator. In programing the TV to our cable remote, I had the choice of either powering the TV ON or OFF; not both. The remote that came with the TV works well to turn it on or off. the cable remote is TV compatable for changing the channels.

Needed a little TV for the kitchen to replace one that died. As compared to the one being replaced, I am amazed by the quality of the picture and the clarity of sound in this small, very inexpensive unit. And it was also unbelievably simple to set up, maybe took 10 minutes. The only reason I dont give it 5 stars across the board is because you cant seem to adjust the aspect to fit in the shape of the screen. Otherwise, surprisingly delighted.

The item is promoted as a 12volt television, but to use it as a 12volt television, you need to purchase a separate power supply for $18.95 directly from the company. Definitely a rip-off. I paid more to get a 12v tv, and now $18.95 more than that? Avoid!

Nice little kitchen TV for the price. Picture and audio quite good. Note, there are no Supersonic programming codes available to work with your programmable remote (cable, sat etc.). This means that to consolidate the TV remote and cable remote into one, youll need to buy a third universal "smart" remote ($10).
