Pros It worked sometimes all the one time(s) that I used it!
Cons overall quality
Recommended it? No

Nobody likes a rant, but there is very little positive about the Casio TV 970. So please hang on with me as I will try to even out the positive and negative.

Where I Bought It

In case you haven't noticed, I buy almost all of my electronics from Best Buy. So there I was, the day... Read full review »

Cons High battery consumption, poor sound quality, headphone sound only comes our of one...
Recommended it? No

I bought the Casio Portable TV-970 the day after Thanksgiving at a massive Best Buy after-Thanksgiving sale (or "Red Friday" as some people like to call it). The Price of the TV was about $75 and Best Buy offered a $20 rebate that was mailed to me a few weeks later. I have been somewhat satisfied... Read full review »

Casio's 970/980 is a good little handheld TV

bymcferguson Dec 23, 2003
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Economical, good picture when reception is also good, just all-around 'neat'.
Cons It's kind of fussy about reception, have to have it just right.
Recommended it? Yes

The Casio 970/980 is not the best television ever. But for the price it's a good bargain.

I live in a metro area and some channels come in very good, while others look terrible. So they definitely could have put a better antenna in this machine. But I hooked up a little converter I bought... Read full review »

Great little TV!

Pros Good reception, digital tuner, excellent price.
Cons Antenna can only go up or to the left.
Recommended it? Yes

This TV is great as far as I'm concerned. Others seem to think it has bad reception, but not for me, it pulls in all my local broadcast channels perfectly and even faintly gets some from the next town 50 mi. away! One of the best features for me is the digital tuner, it tunes perfectly, I hate... Read full review »

A good tv, but not great

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great picture, and sound, especially for the price
Cons Reception not totally great
Recommended it? Yes

For the price of this TV, it is a very good TV. I would have liked to have seen a bigger screen (but that is what you get when you have portable) and probably better reception. However, reception is only as good as the transmitter and distance, not to mention weather, or even buildings.

A Decent Inexpensive Quality Portable

bycompucat Sep 5, 2003
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Compact, Rugged, Good size screen
Cons None So Far
Recommended it? Yes

This set is an easy to use, solid portable TV. I was expecting something less than stellar for this price range but was pleasantly surprised. The only compromise on this set is the absence of an active matrix LCD. The STN display is quite good and keeps the cost down. Reception was good even in my... Read full review »

Pros Excellent signal receiving sensitivity. Great picture.
Cons Mono output, but workable with wireless audio transmitter.
Recommended it? Yes

Bought my 970 two years ago and use it every single work day to watch the morning news programs while driving to work. Yep!

Pros Color, Design, affordable, reception, controls
Cons falsly advertised (sometimes) *SEE THE REVIEW
Recommended it? Yes

I recently purchased the Casio TV- 90 handheld television. If you wanted to by a handheld television these days under $90, I would reccomend this one. It has a color lcd screen that is plenty large. I also like it's digital tuning which means it automatically finds the stations for you as opposed... Read full review »

Not worth the money

Pros good sound
Cons bad resolution, even though it says anti-glare, its too much glare.
Recommended it? No

I got this and returned it recently. I got it for $79. The screen 2.5" is too small for any handheld. Resolution is really bad. Can't read any text on tv. Sometimes can't even makeout certain actors. My advise is , if you're interested in buying any handheld tv, go for atlest 3" wide and with a TFT... Read full review »
