System Experience​

Setting up the Sylvox TV in my RV was a breeze, which I greatly appreciated. The user-friendly design made it easy to mount and connect everything without a hitch. I did run into a minor issue with the 12V plug initially, as it was a bit tricky to fit in, but that was a small bump in an otherwise smooth experience. The TV's size fits perfectly in my camper, and I was excited about the built-in DVD player for those remote camping trips where Wi-Fi isn't available.

Viewing Experience​

I was genuinely impressed with the picture quality of this TV. The colors are vibrant and the clarity is excellent, making it a joy to watch my favorite shows and movies while camping. It provided a nice escape after a long day of outdoor activities, and I found myself getting lost in whatever I was watching. For the size of the TV, I think it delivers fantastic visuals that enhance my overall experience in the camper.

Audio Experience​

While the picture quality was a highlight, I did notice that the sound left something to be desired. It had a somewhat "tinny" quality to it, which made it hard to enjoy dialogue at times, especially with the background noise of the camper. I had to crank up the volume, and even then, certain sounds felt flat. I had hoped for a more robust audio experience, but it was manageable, and I adjusted to it over time.

Other Experience​

Overall, my experience with Sylvox’s customer service was commendable. I had a minor issue with the remote not syncing properly and reached out for help. They were quick to respond, and I felt supported throughout the process. It was reassuring to know that they were there to assist me when I needed it.

Conclusion​

Pros:
The pros of this TV definitely outweigh the cons for me. The setup was easy, the picture quality was vibrant, and the TV's compact size is perfect for my RV. Plus, having a built-in DVD player was a huge bonus for those remote camping trips. I could also easily hook it up to my soundbar for an improved audio experience when needed.

Cons:
On the downside, I did face some struggles with the sound quality, which I found a bit disappointing. Additionally, I had some issues with the remote control, which could be frustrating at times. I also wish the TV had a more powerful audio output, as it sometimes felt lacking when trying to enjoy movies on a cozy night in the camper.

Overall Evaluation:
In conclusion, I’m quite satisfied with my Sylvox TV purchase for my RV. Despite a few sound quality issues and minor remote hiccups, the overall experience has been positive. The vibrant picture quality and the convenience of having a DVD player make it a great addition to my camping adventures. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to fellow campers looking for a compact TV that performs well for its size and price.

I thought it was a solid move to get this DVD player since it supports both PAL and NTSC, but then the HDMI port crapped out after just 40 minutes! So, basically, I could only watch DVDs after that. Honestly, I can't recommend this brand to anyone. It's just poorly made with no redeeming qualities. Total letdown!
 
Installing this TV was a total breeze! The picture quality is just stunning—so clear! And the sound? I usually keep it between 8 and 11, but I’ve cranked it up to 18 a couple of times and it’s still awesome. It’s exactly what I wanted, just like I imagined it would be. The size is perfect for my space.

With the room antenna, I’m getting all the channels I actually care about, which is a huge plus. And can we talk about the remote? It’s like a little gem! It arrived right on time and in perfect shape, too. I didn’t even have to mess with the settings—everything looked great out of the box.

Seriously, thank you for making such an amazing TV. I can’t recommend it enough! Hats off to the folks who made this!
 
So, here's the deal with your new TV: it’s awesome, but you won't find any mounting screws in the box. You’ll need M4 x 8mm screws, so do yourself a solid and grab some before you try to hang that beauty on the wall. Otherwise, you'll be stuck using a stand!

Setting it up was a breeze, and the picture quality is super clear! The only hiccup was that the 12v plug was kinda tricky to get in at first, and I really wish the cord was longer so we could hang it on the wall in a different spot in the camper. But all in all, it’s a solid TV for the RV!

So, I had a bit of a rough time with my TV, and honestly, some of it was probably on me for not knowing what I was doing. But then I got in touch with customer support a few times and finally met Maggie. She was an absolute rockstar! Super helpful and totally took charge to sort everything out for me. Thanks to her, I'm really happy with my purchase now!
 
Man, the sound is just horrendous and the picture looks like total garbage! And can you believe they put the cheaper model on that one stand? What a letdown!
