Magnavox TV Reviews

Bought 46 inch flat screen from target. Got in March 2015 and worked until December 22, 2015. It would turn on and immediately turned off. Took to authorized repair for Magnavox and they still have it (1/27/16). They have been very nice. Got a case #. Received a call today and they want to send me a box for me to load up the tv and send it back to them. When received they will send me a refurbished tv. I told them I bought a new tv and I want a new tv not a used one. Magnavox is a joke. I really wish we could get together for a class action suit. I know I'll never get a new tv from them. Please people DO NOT buy a Magnavox.

The site was not working properly when purchased, had a yellow line up the center of the set. Called Magnavox, they sent me a box to send the set back to some T.V. repair in N.J., and they are sending me a REFURBISHED set in 10 to 20 days. My warranty goes from the day that I originally bought the NEW set. I WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER T.V. WITH THE NAME MAGNAVOX ON IT.

Clear picture and colors are vibrant. Easy to use and the sound quality is wonderful. It's the only TVs we have in all 3 rooms. They outlast other brands we've tried.

My TV is a 50" Magnavox LED smart tv that I have had for 1 year now. It has a very clear picture and the colors are also very pleasing. Navigating through the menu can be a bit challenging, you need to have patience when we are not of the technology generation and this can be overwhelming. But this is the case with all appliances today. I have my tv sitting on top of my 52" wide electric fireplace which is a perfect fit.

I own an LG tv that provided me with excellent picture quality and reliability. Recently bought two Samsung smart tv. Picture best I have ever seen. Technology associated with the new smart tv is state of the art. No need for separate streaming devices. Can search the web with both Samsung tv. Great value.

I've owned 3 Magnavox TVs of different size and configuration (ie) the older bulky 21", larger 36" light/flat screen and a larger 40" flat screen. They have all performed well and the older one lasted about 12 yrs. They don't have all the fancy 'do-dads' that you don't use anyway and are very price competitive because of it.

My floor model Magnavox is approximately 30 years old and has had only one service call early on, to replace a faulty circuit board. As well as serving as a beautiful piece of furniture, it is still functioning beautifully with a crisp picture and sharp audio. I have had many comments as to the crispness of the picture and color attributes.

At one time I had owned a Magnavox Television from 1992 until 2012. It was perfectly good working conditions for the entire duration of ownership. I have made another purchase of Magnavox brand televisions, which is the newer model (flat screen), and I simply love it!!! It has a great picture quality and clarity, good sound and excellent performance. Over the years, when shopping for televisions, I always tend to look for Magnavox, I personally think that they hold their value. I would definitely recommend to family and friends this make and model.

Excellent in price, picture, and longevity with issues. Had my last one 15 years before it quit. Daily use approx 8 hours and would recommend the brand. I did purchase a new LG 6 months ago and very happy with it.

TV Failed at 10 months, warranty evaluation & replacement took about 4 months. Customer service "1-800 #" is in the Philippines. Cultural/Language barrier. Very dissatisfied. Sam's Club refunded $ for all the problems I experienced. Magnavox is NOT what it used to be.

I've got a Magnavox Smart Series TV (which is not an actual smart tv) and I'm satisfied with it. It's not really feature rich compared to newer TV sets, but it has a great picture and good sound, and I've had it for eight years without it breaking down on me. I've never had any trouble hooking it up to cable, DVD player or streaming player - as long as you can hook it up via a/v cables, it's good to go.

Ok but Charter is world's worst cable TV provider. Picture is awful. An explosion occurs every time you change channels. Menu is crap. The price is much too high for what is provided. I get better TV with a small Winegard antenna from about 60 miles away. HD picture, excellent reception, no charge!

I like my tv. I don't like the cable system. Every year it goes up and no new channels. I would not recommend Atlantic Broadband to anyone, they are very rude.

I have always been happy with this television. Now with the new compact sizes and shapes they are much more serviceable. The one I still have it big, bulky and cumbersome in size, but it works great. There are good things to be said about the older models.

I'm a basic television guy. I bought it used. Besides having a big scratch on the screen it works good for me. If your life depends on TV you should shop it! But I recommend not owning one at all! The advertisement is designed to separate you from your hard earned money. The news is controlled and misinformation is all around! Read! But use your brain! Get outside, express your creative gifts!

DO NOT BUY A MAGNAVOX TV. Our TV was a Christmas present in 2014 from a family member who bought it at Sam's Club. Barely over a year later (five more days till Christmas 2015, folks!), the TV won't turn on anymore. The warranty just barely expired, of course. (Planned obsolescence? Wouldn't be surprised.) When the TV first started failing to turn on, we were able to do the reset by unplugging for 5 minutes and get it to turn on again. However, after this worked a handful of times, the TV wouldn't turn on no matter what troubleshooting we tried. When I called Magnavox and spoke with Customer Service (whom I could barely understand with the strong accent), she said we would need to take it to a repair center and because it was out of warranty, (just a few days over a year old!!) we would have to pay a repair fee of $125 or more depending on the repair needed.

I bought a Magnavox TV, it wasn't even six months old when the picture went out. I called the warranty company and have done everything that they have asked us to do. I sent my TV off supposedly to get a refurbished (which I did not buy) as a replacement in 15-20 days. Sent September 17th, TV was received by them on September 21st. It is October 26th and still no TV back. No one will give me any answers as to where my TV is. I keep getting told the same thing - a supervisor will be notified and I will get an email from them in 24-48 hours. I have been told this the last 2 weeks. I have called and still have no email or answers.

I own a 50" DLP television. It has adjustments for the type of sound, quality of picture including all of the common adjustments of today. I purchased this tv from Sam's Club in 2002. It has never failed to deliver.

It was the first HDTV flat screen I purchased and I think it is great. Should I ever want to connect it to the Internet it is all set to go. Highly satisfied with it.

I have had good experience with both the Magnavox, Samsung and 2 other models of tv I have. The survey did not allow me to list more than one even though I have 5 working tvs in my home.

I currently own a 55 inch Magnavox smart TV, that I purchased in January 2015. It has a great picture and sound quality.

It came in the size I needed and it was in my price range. I would certainly purchase the same brand again and would recommend this brand to anyone. Thanks.

I have two of these and have not had any problems with them. One is 6 years old, the other 5. Will buy the same brand again.

I bought a 40" Magnavox around Christmas 2014. In July 2015 the pic stopped working but it still has sound. As per the warranty, we contacted a local authorized repair shop. It was there from 7/31/15 - 8/14/15. They informed us that since the LCD panel needed replacing, it would have to be shipped back to Magnavox & a replacement would be sent out. I would get a phone call within a few days. That didn't happen so I made the call on 8/20/15. They told me it would take 15-20 business days after they received the TV for another to shipped out.

My TV is at least 20 years old and I have never had a day's problem with it. Don't know the model but it has the picture tube, I guess on the back. It's huge, but I think the picture is better than on the newer models.

Owned for 1 week to the day, blown capacitors in power supply. Blinking red power light. Unplugged it for a couple hours, turned on again. Checked it several times after, girlfriend watched it all day the next day and after turning it off the power light started blinking again. Knew right away it wasn't going to turn back on. I'm tempted to try and put better caps in it myself. But I will try the service center first. Pretty pissed. Really disappointing. Wouldn't buy a Magnavox again with a gun to my head. Honestly a TV that lasts 7 days is a joke. Just long enough for me to throw the box and receipt away. Class action lawsuit sounds legit after seeing so many problems of the same nature.

I'm very upset. I bought my TV in November of 2013 and it stopped working. The red standby light is on, but it will not turn on. I sent an inquiry to Magnavox before typing this review but from what I've read so far, I don't think I'll have much luck. I'm wondering if anyone has actually had their TVs repaired and could possibly lend a hand as to what is really wrong. I'd hate to send it out for much bucks when it might be something I can fix myself. Keeping my fingers crossed that Magnavox actually comes through.

Extremely satisfied with the Magnavox brand HDTV I purchased this past year. It has performed great and is internet-compatible. Great product from a well-known manufacturer.

I have a 32-inch flat Magnavox TV that I love. It's the perfect size for my TV stand and is not heavy at all. I can move it easily, it swivels and can be turned a different way without moving the whole TV. It's features are simple and easy to use. The colors and clarity are great even though it's only hooked to local HD antenna TV. I've had this TV for two years and it still performs like new. I would definitely recommend to others and will buy another when this one wears out.

In 2008, prior to the mandated switch over to digital, I purchased a Magnavox Analog/Digital tv and was pleased with the quality picture and the sound. (The sound quality is even better than my. In September 2015, the ON switch button would not turn the picture/sound on. The button continuously alternates flashing from green to yellow when I use the remote, or manually try to turn on the set. I was going to purchase another Magnavox, but after reading the numerous complaints about this company, I will choose another manufacturer.

I just purchased Magnavox TV last year at Target and won't work. The TV stop working, I think the brand is not good.

I purchased a Magnavox 55" smart TV from SAM's club in March 2015. I got it home safely, meaning I didn't drop, bang or hit the TV on anything. I had a professional person to come and hook it up to the internet and cable. The tv worked fine for about a 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, it no longer played Netflix or any other applications over wifi. I contacted my internet provider and Magnavox customer service department. I reset tv and reset Netfix but nothing worked. The tv itself plays fine, it just won't connect to Internet which was the purpose of me even purchasing the tv.

Model 46ME313V 46 inch TV lasted just a week shy of a year and would no longer turn on. Contacted Magnavox and they stated that we needed to ship our TV back to them at no charge. Received replacement TV - removed from box, plugged in and it would not turn on. I am disgusted and plan to smash the TV with a Hammer and dump it in front of Target, where it was purchased.

I wrote a Smart tv from Magnavox company. NOT even 4 month my Tv screen went out twice. The first time it went out but you could still see the pictures along with the sound. Now not even one day later my kids was watching TV and out of nowhere the whole screen went out and all you see is colorful lines on the screen. Now here the problem start. So I contacted Magnavox Company and complained and I was told to submit a photo along with my receipt since it haven't even been a year since I purchased. So I did that and I was told by two customer service that either I will get another tv or they will repair it. Ok. So I sent out the receipt and the photo of the Tv ok and was told within 2 to 3 business days I will get an email back on the issue.

I purchased my TV 3 yrs ago and now it shows only a partial picture at the top of the screen. I see now that everyone else is having the same problem. When I called they gave me the number to a repair shop that is approx 30 miles away, and the cost is $50 just for diagnosis. Magnavox should be held accountable in a class action suit. Needless to say I will never purchase any of their products ever again.

I have been trying to contact the company by email, but I can get nowhere. I have a three year old TV that has been blocking out the right half of the picture for two years now. I talked to a representative once but got no satisfaction. Then the TV stopped doing it for about ten months; now it's doing the same thing. The blockage looks like a curtain and changes colors. I think the company should be willing to give me a full refund, but since I can't get hold of anyone, it looks like that won't happen. What's the next step?

I order a remote control as a replacement which I thought I misplace it, order date 7/21/15. On 7/24/15 I found my old remote control and still working. I received my order on 7/28/15, I call the customer service to ask how I can return the item. But according to the lady I spoke with, the company does not accept return. I don't know why this company can get away with this kind of policy. It cost $26.00 for a item that don't need.

Bought this tv at Sam's Club on 3/23/2014. It's a 46ME313V/F7. For the last month I've been unplugging it for a minute like the instructions say so it can reset. Today, it does absolutely nothing. Magnavox used to be a good name in electronics, but from reading everyone else having the same problem, apparently that is not the case anymore! They should be recalling all these TVs and fixing the problem! I'm definitely telling everyone I know not to buy Magnavox!

Bought a 46 in Magnavox TV from Sam's in March 2014. In the last week the TV would not turn on. I unplugged the TV for a minute and then plugged it back in and it would turn on until 2 days ago. Now it will not turn on at all. The red power light is on but does nothing. After reading all of the reviews, I am convinced there is an issue with the TV's. I previously had an old Magnavox for over 20 years and never had an issue. These new TV's are not the same. Very sad that we wasted our money on this TV.

Hello! I bought my Television through a Finance Company here in Canada. It was working great until Saturday night when it turn off and now it will not go on. I will be call the Finance Company tomorrow because I make payments on this thing and I will see what will happen. Hopefully they will Give me a new one. Over a Year and it is costing me over 2 Grand and then it would of been mine to own, Rent to Own. I am not sure about this thing. I am on Disability. BOY this is Expensive.
