 Skip this one December 26, 2009
William R. Ogden (NY USA)
Audio output is low, even when set to 100%. No codes are available for programming a remote. This is simply unacceptable as practically everyone will use this unit with a cable/satellite box. Simply unacceptable, which is unfortunate because the picture quality is quite good.
THIS IS A TERRIBLE RIP OFF December 25, 2009

We bought as a small compact TV for our children's room. 4 1/2 months after purchasing, it died....will not even power on. Usually off-brands are near the same quality but cost less because you do not have to pay for a big name like Sony. But in this case, the lower price = lower quality. What a disappointment.
 Decent HDTV performance, weak in all other regards. April 26, 2009

The Coby TFTV1913 suffers from a dreadful case on inadequacy.
On the positive side, the HD TV tuner gives a clean, sharp image. The flat matte finish of the screen is wonderful at eliminating glare and looks pleasant when powered off.
The aspect ratio is not standard 16:9. It is 16:10. This makes watching widescreen movies a slight bit unsettling, as you will notice the small stretch.
The automatic TV tuner scan picks up some nice free HD channels over the air, but the majority of my digital cable channels scanned out of order or not at all. This befuddled me. For example, while one channel would be 22 anywhere else in the house, this TV picked it up as 28. 22 was a completely different channel.
Standard definition TV comes across quite poorly, even for an LCD TV and is in stark contrast to the great HD it can provide. I have a strong digital cable signal, and broadcasts just looked blocky, pixellated and full of random noise. When I replaced the Coby with a different brand and model, SDTV came across just fine.
The component input behaved very strangely as well. I may have had a defective set (in fact I know I did because it shipped with a dead pixel left center), but component came across almost as poorly as SDTV. I tested it with a PS2 game, DVD via PS2, Xbox 360 game and DVD via 360. All DVDs played back much darker and I had to adjust the contrast/brightness to accommodate the change. The PS2 game looked absolutely atrocious. The 360 game I tested was a 720p title and looked little better than it did on a standard CRT TV (yes the AV cord was set to HD)! To top it all off the sound volume was unreliable. At times it would be very loud for a DVD menu and then quiet for the movie. In games, cutscenes would be very quiet but gameplay loud. I couldn't account for this problem at all.
Also worth mentioning is the lack of HDMI input, but since this TV is only 1080i and cannot process 1080p signal, the missing HDMI is no surprise.
As a PC monitor, forget this. At 19", the native resolution is 1440x900; a resolution many graphic adapters (Intel 845, 852 etc.) don't normally support. In the event you are forced to use a lower resolution (1280x1024), the image becomes more than a little blurry/fuzzy. I found myself straining to read text, even after tweaking refresh rates and ClearType prefs. If you use a smaller font, black text will appear slightly purple/blue against a white background.
Combined with the other visual issues already mentioned, this TV/monitor is just horrible.
For use as a TV, pick up something a little more expensive with much better visual quality and far less issues.
For use as a dedicated PC monitor, avoid it. You can easily find a decent 20" LCD for around the same cost, and add a digital TV tuner yourself.
For use as both monitor and TV tuner, it does the job... but very poorly.
 Pleased with my 19" Coby TV/Monitor January 30, 2009

I purchased the 19" Coby TV for a spare bedroom to mainly watch the news in the morning or while working on the computer. I paid $217.00 which include tax and shipping in that cost. I am very pleased in what I received.I know some other reviews had issues with the sound and quickness of turning on. I am very pleased in the TV, since I do not own an expensive high quality large screen TV at this time, there is no need to compare it with our other TV. It works well for us.Thank you
