 Not a bad DVD Player but has cons March 11, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought this DVD player last month,now I'm an honest person and I myself was reading any review that could have helped me make the best choice...I looked at a few other Players on amazon but most of them had drawbacks or didn't cut in battery life power..I decided to go with this because it claimed it had a 12 hour battery,as expected of course,it's mostly BS..Here are the pros:The Video is pretty good,on a scale i'd say 8/10..The Volume can really crank up loud,it plays all mainstream DVD's...the pivot screen is brilliant,I can put it in so many different angles,the dvd headrest mount is is also a good option,I like how it plays different types of formats,like CD,MP3,JPEG Discs and some burned DVDs...this thing has an excellent anti-skip device,it also includes 2 head phone jacks.
Here are the cons:Ok,first of all,whoever decided to not include a remote is crazy,because for a $220 player you'd expect a remote..the screen is really dark,I mean you have to pivot it a certain way so that it isn't so dark,also,the dvd player itself doesn't have much brightness to it,if you put it on max bright,which is daylight setting,and you're watching a movie that let's say,primarily takes place at night or is just mostly dark,then it really affects you...the battery life is actually terrible...I'm forced to use headphones so that I can watch 2 movies and maybe 1 or 2 episodes of the simpsons...if you leave it w/out headphones and on max bright,you'll probably get 2 hours tops...I haven't tested the battery life yet..but this is what i've been able to watch:I've watched 2 movies that were 2 hours long and 2 episodes of the simpsons which were about 20 minutes long each..so 4 hours and 40 minutes before it dies [using headphones]..so don't be fooled by the 12 hour battery life,because that's if you have it on zero bright and low sound with headphones,which makes whatever you're watching boring in which you won't be able to see anything,I also think enabling subtitles takes a little more battery life...one thing that also bugs me,is the fact that the buttons get pressed easily..if you're trying to pivot the screen,you'll more than likely hit the stop button or the next chapter option which is very annoying,this happens a lot...that's about it.
Here is what was included when i got the package.
DVD Player,Headrest Mount,cables for tv,car power adapter,power plug adapter,instructions.
So in all,I do recommend this dvd player,it's probably the best option that is available right now..but like i said,don't be fooled by the battery life..but in all,it's worth the money,you're getting a good product that has little drawbacks.

I purchased this DVD unit as I travel significantly on long flights and long layovers in airports. The extended battery life and large screen were appealing to me. I've used it many times over the first 30 days with no problems at all. I highly recommend this unit.

Sometimes you have to spend a little more to get a good product. I read probably all of the reviews on all of Amazon's portable DVD players. This one had the best reviews, and now I can see why. The battery life is GREAT, and the pic is great! I had NO problems with this product. It has come in VERY handy. It comes w/ the cig. lighter adaptor for the car as well!!
Good product! No problems!! You can't go wrong!
Awesome! February 23, 2008
This DVD player is awesome. It works perfectly for long flights. The battery life is great and the screen can be positioned well if the person in front of you reclines their seat. Loved it!
I love this item!!! February 13, 2008

I am a normal person and have no experience with electronics, all I wanted was to watch tv on take along with good quality and I got it!!! I chose this model because it was the only one within my budget to give me 12 hours of battery life after charge and that is what I love the best. It is a great player, great quality and I have absolutely no complaints of it.
