Have you owned an RCA product?


I'm aware they are hot garbage. If you were in the market for a new TV which brand would you go with? I'm thinking about trying to be helpful and making a useful recommendation. Samsung is the only thing that comes to mind for quality.

If he's looking for more of a budget TV, I don't think there's anything wrong with Vizio, i'm assuming he's not going to be gaming on it or anything. Samsung is generally what I go with though, but i've owned a few Vizio with no issues.

Yes old school RCA stuff.

We have an old floor model from like 1977 that still works.

I wouldn't buy any of their new stuff as it is a zombie brand. It only exists in name.

Sony, LG, or Samsung for high end.

Vizio would be best bang for price imo.

Truth. I remember in the 80s they didn't have the worst brand recognition. These days though its reputation is damn near dead.

Thanks, if he is in more of the budget mindset I'll point him towards Vizio. He has an Atari clone, other than that I don't see him gaming much. Mostly watching football and TV shows I'd guess.

Yep, I had a Zenith back in the 90s. What I really wanted though was a Sony Trinitron lol.

Heck yeah. And Sanyo

But Zenith was actually not a budget brand to start with.

I have a Vizio that I've had great luck with, and it's another brand that a lot of people seem to sneer at.

I had an rca with a built in vcr, it ate a tape and I had to basically strip the damn thing down to get it out.

Put it back together and the damn thing was in greenscale, like grayscale but shades of green, was like that for the rest of the time I owned it.

I had a RCA TV that my parents bought for the living room in 97 that they gave to me in 08 after they bought a HDTV. Started having problems with it shortly afterwards

I remember it being a pain in the ass playing Mass Effect 2 on it

There was a time when they made high-quality stuff. Once they got sold to some Japanese company, they've been shit.

I'm a Panasonic or Sony person myself.

Sony is quality.

Samsung is just as good and cheaper than Sony, but Sony is quality.

Your sister is clueless sorry. Brand loyalty marketing has taken control of her decisions around tv purchases.
