I had already purchased a small take-along TV but was unhappy with the quality. This little dynamo was perfect for my needs. Compact enough to fit in a carry-on or briefcase. Good reception through the neck strap antenna. It picks up all of the local VHF/UHF stations, plus some I had not expected. Battery life appears to be great. As with almost all of these tiny take-alongs, the picture quality in bright sun is not great, but this one was much better than what I had been used to. All in all on of my best Ebay purchases yet!
I was looking for a Personal TV to use when I was away from Electricity to watch College Football games. My Son has one and it works beautiful for this usage. When I bought this "Used" Sony Watchman it was advertised as having a "Great Picture" "In Good Condition" and "Comes with a Charger". I received and could not get a picture at all. I do live several miles from the TV station and didn't expect a perfect picture but I had no picture. In comparing to my Son's hand-held unit I did expect to receive something. The suggestion of plugging in an external antenna was not acceptable since this would defeat the purpose I had in mind. I feel that the unit, if it was new would have operated OK but that this used one had just been used up. Since I was told that "Poor reception is not a valid reason for a refund" I am setting with a Used TV that is of no value to me. Buyer Beware on buying used TV's.Read full review
This TV kept me on the grid when the grid went down in 2004 (Hurricanes Charley, Frances, and Jeanne). I hung it by the straptenna from a coat hanger in my hurricane shelter (a.k.a. closet) and got good reception during and after the hurricanes. It is a good TV for sporting events, picnics, power outages, etc. It gets good reception and is easy to use.
This is an analog-only TV, and cannot be used with today's over the air signal. I bought it for my vintage TV technology display, but it could be used as a video monitor if someone wants a 2.2" monitor. Overall quality is fair; not quite what I would expect from Sony, but then of course Sony didn't actually build it. It's Chinese-made with a Sony re-brand.
this little tv,it comes very handy when you are traveling and need some distraccion,it has good image and sound, the only thing that i do not like is that the image it can only be seen in certain angle and the 2.5 inches of screen its kind small for my poor sigth, but thats is just me....i recomen it if you are planning to use it for short periods of time, as i said earlier when you need some distraccion.
This little TV is awesome I have had one for a few years and it has been awesome to use on the go. Digital Auto tuning lets you hit the up switch and it automatically goes to the next available channel. I would like to not have the gangly antenna and would have opted for an extendable mast antenna but I think close to the end of the watchman craze they were trying to get flashy to keep things alive. All in all a good toy till the High def thing happens in a year. Then it will be Bantha Pudu.
22 years ago my boss, the local CHEVRON dealer, got this same little TV as a bonus for taking advantage of a 100 case motor oil offer from CHEVRON. Of course it had the silk-screened logo on it, but I was fascinated with Sony's patented way of having you see the screen from the inside of the tube thought the clear side. Truly a stoke of genius. And to have this TV in hand, and for a while at least, watch 4 local stations, well, it was a cheap way for me to have something that I could not afford back then, but what was too cool for words at the time.KL
A must have. Radio is OK. But without, computers, cable TV, and or no electric power, sound alone is just not enough. A TV is the only way to get that picture's one thousand words. When you just need to stay informed. An inexpensive way to reach the news.
i like it. thank. I bought the individual tv three weeks ago and was immediately impressed with the number of features available on this inexpensive tv. It has a lcd color screen, . The sony tv size is perfect for carrying in a pocket and the battery has a pretty good lifespan of roughly 4 hours. My only complaint is that the menu system on the phone makes you click four times before you can find someone in the address book, set an alarm, or perform a additional functions. Other phones I've owned have simpler menus and get you to important features easily. Overall, I'd recommend the phone if you're on a budget.
Works great and has good battery life. Also if you own a PSP, the power adapter will work for this tv as well. I don't think this tv will work when broadcasts go digital.
