I purchased the Best Buy Essentials Amplified Ultra-Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna - 50 Mile Range - Black for my recently purchased Sony BRAVIA 9 65-inch. Installation was simple, it picked up 100+ channels in my area, and 60+ were legit channels. Overall, this was a good purchase and works as advertised; affordable too!

Basic antenna. Simple setup. Extremely affordable! Now I can pick up all my local channels without needing a cable subscription and without having to put a massive antenna on my roof.

I live in a terrible area for reception. After going through many different antennas over the past year, about 4, this one was able to use the power signal to the outlet to get maximum reception in my area. This antenna gave me about 99% access to all the local channels when the rest only got me about 67%

Almost perfect. Great reception even inside a room 40 miles away from Mt. Wilson (LA area TV). Easy to set up and cables were long enough for convenient placement. One flaw: power requires a "wall wart" plug in rather than a much easier USB power. Modern TVs all have USB working as power source.

Perfect antenna! Easy to set up. I bought two. It’s worth every penny. I would recommend.

Autotuning from northern Delaware, I was able to receive 72 digital broadcast stations! Positioning is critical--not surprisingly, higher is better. Reception is excellent for almost all of these stations (many are sub-channels).

It was easy to set up and I get so many local channels. No cable or wifi to required.

I've been using this antenna primarily to watch OTA NFL broadcasts. With the included signal amplifier, the antenna pulls in all four major networks clearly when taped to a window facing the broadcast tower 26 miles away in San Francisco, including ABC on VHF 12 and NBC on VHF 13. However, when using the stand placed just six inches in front of the same window, ABC and NBC have the minimum signal to be viewable, and there is no signal for CBS and FOX. At six feet away from the window, CBS and NBC have the minimum signal to be viewable, and there is no signal for ABC and FOX. While it's nice that amplifier's 6-volt power adapter has a 6-foot cord, I would have preferred USB power drawn from the TV. Still, this beats paying Xfinity $40/month for local channels.

Does the job as it should, have a smart TV for my mother and she just wanted rhe local channels (fox,nbc, abc, etc.). Depending where you live varies on reception, but it works nonetheless. Would recommend to those who want to ditch cable.

I get most major channels but i do have to adjust the antenna for different channels

The item works quite well. Easy to install and the picture was quite clear. I would give a better review if I could have found someone to help me find this item and make selections. There were MANY Best Buy employees floating around...none apparently available to detach themselves from their personal chitty chat and frivolity with each other to help a customer. Quite frustrating.

[Employee of bestbuy] I have had a large amplified HD antenna in the Attic that distributes signal to all of the TVs in the house. I recently added another TV but could not get a wire from the existing antenna to the new TV so I purchased one of these little guys. I got more channels and better signal on the new TV with the new antenna. I ended up buying four more of these antennas and not even using the big antenna anymore because these work so well for me.

It's fantastic to hear that the compact antenna worked wonders for you! Sometimes, the simplest solutions surprise us with their effectiveness. Now you've got more channels and better signal without the hassle of running extra wires. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! - Carl | Best Buy Essentials Products

I have been wanting a new antenna for quite some time now, because 1) the cord on my antenna is short and can't move it around 2) My antenna is really old, I have the old rabbit ears antenna and 3) I got tired of not getting a specific channel. It would always go in and out even when I kept rescanning my 32" tv. I have had this antenna now for close to a month now. I decided to buy one from Best Buy online. Although when it got delivered, the setup isn't as easy as it looks. It has no directions at all except for a bland instruction on the back of the box. However after figuring it out in like 5 to 10 minutes, it was a cinch. The antenna is quite thin as indicated in the title. It looks like cardboard. It has a very long cord, which is AWESOME, because I can move it around which it something I couldn't do with my old one. After moving it around and rescanning my flatscreen tv, THAT SPECIFIC CHANNEL I WAS TALKING ABOUT WAS CATCHY TV, ( I love seeing my throwback shows) that I COULDN'T GET BEFORE BECAUSE IT WOULD GO IN AND OUT with my old antenna, I CAN NOW GET THE STATION ALL THE TIME!!!!! No moving around it to a hundred different places to get the channel to come in!!! IT NOW COMES IN PERFECT WITH ONE PLACE that the antenna is placed at... I will Definitely buy another one for my 65'" inch tv that I have in my living room. Who knew with this price it would be worth it.

Great antenna for the value, easy to install and worked very well, I could scan 72 free to air channels.

This is an amazing product and very inexpensive compared to other streaming options. I didn't want to upgrade my TV package for an additional $128 more. I now have CBS, ABC, FOX and 65 other channels. My favorite team is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and thanks to this cost effective HD antenna. I won't miss any games this season. The picture quality is perfect, all HD channels with no glitching. I'm so happy I found this product before the season started.

I didn’t know what to expect with this antenna, my expectations were low. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of channels I got with it as well as the picture quality. Would highly recommend.
