Small Smart TV Recommendations

Paul

I think your problem might be finding a sub 24 inch TV which is also designated as Smart? Cello do some small TV's , down to 16 inch but not sure if they are Smart.

Not sure there are any that are smart TVs with  a decent range of apps :-

- for smart TV part suggest a roku stick or chromecast tv, both have marginally more app coverage than fire stick. We use a roku in our motorhome, as the smart apps on our smallish Sony has only limited apps

- for the TV itself its either cheap and basic, or something like an Avtex or Cello which will run off 12v as well and has other good features but no smart apps to my knowledge, although the in built dvd player is a bit wasted these days IMHO

- a computer monitor could be used with a freeview box e.g. a now TV with freeview (2nd hand from cex), but the freeview boxes are typically larger that a stick and the monitor speakers are not usually that good

Edit - I'm assuming you couldn't pack the TV away and put it on table or worktop on site (what we do in our motorhome) and therefore get a bigger TV? 

I can't offer anything positive regarding smart televisions but ours is a Tesco's own 22 inch but is always put away in the back of the wardrobe during the daytime and for travelling.  I'm not a huge television fan so I just don't want it taking up room during the day. 

Our 24" Avtex isn't 'smart' (it's a Series 7), but I have cured that with a Firestick - don't know it's there - just plugs into the back of the set and takes power from one of the USB slots.

As for Chromecast - that was my first port of call and it was rubbish - what a messing about trying to cast from your phone and it didn't work half of the time.  The Firestick is seamless and operating our previously non-smart caravan TV is just as easy as the big smart set at home.

Thanks all. Smart is not available sub 24", indeed the choice of TVs below 24" is limited to say the least.

Would like to go with a 14" Cello, but they are not wall mountable - only the 12" is. That may well have to do. Cheap enough on Amazon so will give it a go. 
Will debate on the Roku/ Fire TV stick with the better half :-)

Sometimes keeping the 'smart' part separate from the TV is not so bad as many manufacturers don't update in a timely manner (if at all). A relatively cheap stick is easy enough to upgrade once in a while.

I've just checked Avtex as they have gone in and out of smaller TV's. 24" is the smallest, but I noticed this:-

"The ultra-compact sleek design of the Avtex W249TS provides all the benefits of a 24” screen but with the external dimensions attributed to a 21” model."

Perhaps a browse through the ad for the caravan, moho  etc show would bring a few ideas for following up ??

I've got a 16" non-smart 12v/240v from my previous motorhome, a Falcon Traveller I think it's called. They advertise in the club magazine. I'm based just outside Portsmouth, if you are interested.

See p.15 of March edition of the Club magazine - there's an ad there for a 21.5" 'Smart" Avtex.

We use an Amazon Fire stick to make our Avtex into a Smart if you do find a tv of the size you want.
