Product Description

How on earth did they fit so many features into this 13-inch flat screen TV? The flat screen minimizes glare and distortion for a more realistic picture, while a 3-line digital comb filter delivers crisp clean images. The front A/V input makes it easy to connect to a video game console or a VCR, while the rear A/V input keeps cables hidden from view. The attractive silver finish and sleek compact design make this TV the perfect fit for any room.

The Sony Trinitron KV13FS100 WEGA television is completely flat vertically and horizontally, which provides a sharp three-dimensional picture that's virtually distortion free. This 13-inch set is a great choice for use in the kitchen or your vacation cabin. It features a 4:3 aspect ratio, a three-line digital comb filter (usually found on higher-end models), and a component-video input.

Sony's three-line digital comb filter compares consecutive horizontal scanning lines within a video frame and uses digital circuitry to make adjustments, providing outstanding picture quality with sharp, crisp edges, while virtually eliminating dot crawl. The KV13FS100 also features a dynamic picture processor, which maintains image detail in very bright and dark areas of each scene.

The built-in stereo speakers are positioned on the side and produce 3 watts of power apiece. The KV13FS100 has an component-video input (rear), 1 RF input (rear), 2 A/V inputs (1 front, 1 rear), and a headphone jack.

What's in the Box
KV13FS100 13-inch TV, remote control (RM-Y173), 2 AA batteries, and printed operating instructions.

Don't buy this TV if you don't have Cable or Satellite

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2005

Verified Purchase

I bought this TV to replace a 13 year old Sony that served us very well with rabbit ears (antenna). After talking with Sony and a local repair agy re: terrible reception, I was informed that the new TV's are made to receive signals from Cable or Satellite and that no indoor antenna regardless of price, will work satisfactorily.

Excellent small CRT for classic video games.

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2020

This is easily the best small CRT for classic gaming without buying a PVM. If you are not a retro gamer, there are many cheaper TVs out there for you. This 13" Flat CRT boasts a lot of features that were extremely in uncommon. In addition to the flat FD Trinitron picture tube, it has has good quality stereo speakers and most impressively a Component video input. I use a RetroTink RGB to Component transcoder to connect my classic consoles with RGB SCART cables and the results are beautiful. I took a few pics of 16-bit video game title screens to demonstrate how good the picture quality is. Colors are bright and accurate with zero bleeding or crawling, and small details are sharp and clean. This TV also has composite video inputs that I mostly use for convenience, but is nice if you don't have a way to connect your consoles to the component input. I can't recommend this TV enough to anyone who likes to play 8-bit and 16-bit games on a CRT that can fit on a desk. But, if you need a general purpose TV, there are much better options out there.

Beautiful Picture, Good Sound, Excellent Deal

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2004

This television has a beaufiful picuture. I recently bought and then sold a newer, larger television, because the picture quality was much better on this smaller set. (perceived picture quality always decreases as size increases, but the quality delta of the new set was just too great).

Sound quality is good, not great, but it is a small set.

I watch dvd's a lot and this has component video in - which is a must have in my opinion.

Also, remote control is smaller and easier to use than other models.

Bulky but good

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2011

Verified Purchase

This "portable" TV has Sony's usual good quality picture but is heavy and bulky. If only it were available in a flat-screen version! It takes too much space on our kitchen counter and it is bigger and bulkier that the Sony TV we replaced, but the old version is no longer available.

Great little TV!

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2006

Verified Purchase

I needed a small TV for my bedroom and this Sony delivered on all fronts. The picture quality is outstanding - crisp and vivid, without any of the artificial edge-enhancement on found on many analog televisions that I find so distracting. I went to a brick-and-mortar electronics retail chain to scout out small TVs, but kept coming back to the Sony because of the picture quality. It's certainly a fair deal more expensive than other TVs of similar size, but you do seem to get what you pay for.

Inputs are plentiful, including a component input on the back, which is surprising on such a small set. There's a channel labeling option so you can name your stations and a favorites button that lets you quickly surf to any of five preset channels, making channel surfing a breeze. Pushing and holding the channel up or down button will speed through channels in the direction of your choice. It's also pretty trivial to adjust picture and color temperature to your liking; the menus are easy to navigate, unlike a lot of other cheaper sets I tried out. Sound easily fills a small room, but of course isn't concert quality or anything.

Finally, the remote is nicely sized and idiot-proof. It'll take you all of a minute to get used to it. I'm not sure if this will matter to anyone, but the remote is wider at the bottom, which allows it to stand upright on a nightstand or desk. Styling is subjective, but I think the Sony looks pretty good compared to its competition. This is an inexpensive TV that doesn't look cheap. The only feature that's missing is auto closed-captioning when the TV is muted, but this isn't a deal breaker in my mind. Until all our signals are pristine, digital HDTV quality, we'll have to live with the analog signals we get. I'm happy to say that this TV handles the latter really, really well.

A lot in a small package

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2006

Verified Purchase

I purchased this TV for the bedroom and it fits perfectly on the dresser. The dimensions were exactly what I needed.

The TV has the SONY name and quality behind it. What more can I say? The reason for the 4 Stars is only because I'm used to larger SONY TV's with larger than life sound. Although this is a smaller model, it has excellent picture quality and the sound is pretty good. I have enjoyed listening to relaxing music CD's and it was a good idea for SONY to include a headphone jack. I currently own 2 Sony TV's and 2 SONY DVD/VCR units. The most recent unit is a DVD Recorder w/VCR (also purchased from amazon.com)
