Cath, yes yung parang skeleton ng saranggola. Pwede rin ang indoor pero mas maganda ang reception pag yung skeleton.

[_Qwerty_]

hmm yung mga bagong tv yata ngayon wala nang indoor antenna.. you have to buy it separately..

*_Qwerty_ Yup, I got my TV a few months ago lang and it did not come with an indoor antenna. Wala na kong makita dito sa bahay. I hope they have it at ACE or True Value.

*monty, Wow! Are you based here in Manila ba? Ang retro naman may ganyan ka pa.

[Monty]

Cath, outskirts :-) tru value has both indoor and outdoor antennae.

My 2 cents better off getting an outdoor ant....pagdi maganda shielding/installation ng elec lines mo the indoor ant absorbs the elec noise as well prang may snow recep mo even at a smallest bit.

4 yrs old na ang LG-55LW6500 ko

I can't believe my TV has its 3rd issue on its 4th year only. I think this is out of warranty already

Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? I can't turn it off. When I power off, it would open again but with the "ulan" screen. And then I have to reprogram (auto channel again). I have to pull the plug to power off tuloy.

My LG 50” plasma TV is almost 8 years old now. We bought it around Thanksgiving 2010 and brought it back home with us from Illinois. No issues at all.

Our 2009 BRAVIA XBR9 is still alive and kicking today. Mura na mga 4K HDR BRAVIAs but no reason to buy, ang tibay.

Not buying Sony anymore. We used to have an old Bravia LCD TV and it conked out in less than 2 years. That was the time when 32" LCD TVs cost around 60-70k. Nowadays, you can get a decent 32" LCD smart TV for less than 20k.

Same here. It seems that Sony Bravias don't last that long. I had two LCDs, one 55" and the other is 45" imported all the way from USA. It conked out on its 4th year. The other one, on the 5th year. I called the service tech, he cleaned some contacts, it worked for a few hours and suddenly half of the screen turned grey. He told me the screen needs to be replaced and was quoting P45,000. Same fate as the other one. I might as well get a new one.

My Sharp Aquos LED 60", also from USA, is still alive today, on it's 7th or 8th year.

I'm sticking with Sharp and in fact I'm shopping for one now. I don't need those fancy 4K UHD or whatever you call it. I don't have 4k videos to play anyway. A simple 1080p HD will do fine with at least 4 HDMI. I'm looking at a budget of P30,000 below with a 2 year warranty.

Stuck power ON remote control button ... or loose power plug ... check the connection at the back of the TV ... gets loose over time ...

on/off of remote is not working anymore. I checked the button at the back and it is okay.

If I "sleep" the TV, it will turn off a few seconds and then open again but with the ambon ambon/black and white grains screen. I have to program the channels again So I have to pull the plug to turn it off and then reprogram the channels every time I turn on.
