Don't judge this TV by its cheap look, judge it by its screen resolution and picture quality. I have owned Casio's models 970 and 880. They don't have as many pixels as the 550. The brightness and picture quality is superior when you put them side to side. The 550 has TFT active matrix screen while the others have passive matrix. The TFT is better under all light conditions, even under direct sun light. If you really want a TV that is good both outdoors and indoors don't buy a passive matrix tv. Get ready to have lots of fresh batteries or buy the AC adaptor from casio's website. I would not recomend getting those universal AC adaptors out there, even if you set them up to match the handheld specifications, it can eventually burn your screen and your TV won't turn on again. The warranty doesn't cover this kinda thing since you are not using casio's certified AC adaptor. Believe me, it happened to me once and I have heard a lot of sad stories of dead handeld TV's once they are hooked to generic adaptors. SO, play safe, take care of your investment and enjoy!!!!

Active Matrix-good picture and reception. Don't buy any product unless it is active matrix. For the extra $50- buy the Casio three inch model.

I brought this portable televison on the 14th of december 2000! I got it then when it was brand new!! It is the best portable televison I have ever brought!! It has an amazing tracking signal with a superb picture quality!! any who reads this should listen to me carefully as this is an excellent piece of equipment!!!!

Great picture as long as receiption is good. Traveling in the car is another story. I don't have the car antenna, this might help. It blows through batteries also. But, still a good golf cart addition.
