HIDB TV Antenna for Smart TV Indoor, Digital Indoor HD Antennas with Strong Magnetic Base, Easy Installation, Long Range Reception for Local Channels 4K 1080P, 10ft Long Cables (Black)

Excellent product. Got rid of expensive cable over a year ago. Tried this inexpensive antenna just to see if I wanted to go this route before purchasing a more expensive antenna. This one worked great. So, I purchase a second one for my smart tv. It works even better, picking up a large number of channels. Was told at a department store channel “2” is extremely difficult to get. I get it on both tv’s. I will be purchasing another antenna for my tv that is not a smart tv because some of the channels have started going in and out and I have to reset the antenna. I definitely believe that’s because it’s a much older tv.I definitely would recommend.

Even if you use cable TV service you still need this in an emergency. Hurricane season here in Florida means we lose electricity during the storm and it could extend for days. Even with a generator for our electric needs - refrigerator, lights, etc., you cable TV will not work as that service is dead in the community. This small device connects to the back of your TV - no matter the size - just connect the small unit with supplied cord to the TV’s coaxial connection. Place the unit on top of TV or nearby and (with TV power via generator or battery supply) scan available channels. In our case we got all the network channels including the local ones that offered hurricane updates. This worked great and will always be our hurricane kit supply cabinet. Other than our use, it could also substitute for your cable service - works good enough to “cut the cord” and get local network channels.

Didn’t work in my area. I am near a metro area. A lot of antennas have a lot of hype as to what they can attain. This one didn’t work for me. Others may be luckier than I was. It’s so situational. So I’m not able to say it doesn’t really work, especially at this price.

This is a good inexpensive little antenna. The reception is a lot better than my previous antenna and the magnetic base is comes in handy. Installation is easy and the long cable makes it easy to place in the best spot for reception. Remember, to get the most channels, you need to have an unobstructed view. Otherwise, you might need a larger outdoor rooftop antenna.

This antenna is picture perfect. It works great on my smart tv. It’s so small, it can actually fit anywhere and the price is affordable too. A must have if you have a flat screen tv and it fits any and all sizes.

At first sight I didn’t know if this little device could work at allI was mistaken It was so simple to use. I got all broadcast channels coming through with clearity.

I watched the video about this antenna and thought, great just what I need. When it came I read the directions and it said it should be close to a window. When I connected the antenna I did in fact have to put it up high on my window that just happened to be close to the tv. I don't have any metal on my windows so, I had to hang over my curtain rod. When I put it in this position, I lost 2 channels that wouldn't come in due to a weak signal. Now, I've got this black cord stretched to the window instead of it being stuck to my tv like the video showed. I'm keeping it for now but, the video is misleading.

Not compatible with at least some Samsung sets.It looked promising but only one of the three TVs in different parts of our house picked up any stations at all, even though we have several within 30 miles. The one that did pick up stations got 7, but only one of those was one of the major locals.It turns out that my Samsung TVs have a "DTV Air" feature that it uses to find stations too. Those keep overriding the channel scan.Aside from that, little things that can also make a difference... the coax connector was difficult to turn because of the same-sized plastic covering at the end of the wire. On some coax cables they use a plastic piece to help you grip and turn the end. In this case, the plastic is stationary and leaves very little room to grip and turn the coax connector. My finger and/or thumb tended to be on both so there was a resistance to turning.
