1) I just bought this, it is cheap, I got it from Fry's for

$60 + $6 recycling fee for the monitor.

2) Compared to other players which are $124-170, the screen

resolution is the same. It is kind of pixelated, for this screen

size (8.5 inc), for expensive models also. I guess you have to

got to blueray to get any thing better than this.

3) The greatest feature is it can read extremely scratchy DVDs

and play it. On the display they had a movie disk in the player.

It was horribly scratchy,

looked like some one used it as a skate board.

It played fine on this machine.

The Panasonic DVD player, which is $178

could not even load it.

I had an expensive Sony DVD/player and recorder, but it will not

play a DVD if you have a finger print or slight scratch.

So just for this feature I will give it a Big five star.

4) The sound is not bad, when I played a nice music CD, the sound came out

pretty good. I was surprised.

The noisy movies did not have that great sound, but it has

a digital sound out, you can put out 5.1 Dolby to your sound system.

I did not try that out.

5) It has Video out in case, the DVD with your TV cannot play the

scratchy DVD.

6) It is lite, easy to carry, has li-ion battery.

7) Also has a remote, in case you want, it.

Must point at the right corner of the player.

8) I bought it to take it to India, so made sure it can output PAL video signal

and it has that option, not tried it yet.

Tried few Indian DVDs and Video CDs, worked

fine, without a hitch, very fast in loading, compared to other players.

Thanks

sguha.

I bought this a gift that I will be sending to our family in Europe. Since it will travel so much I had to make sure that it works well before sending it. I charged it and tested it with DVDs bought in the US and from Europe. It had no problem playing them. The sound is extremely good and it can be very loud without sacrificing quality. You can see lines on the screen, kind of like the old tv-s. The picture could be better, I mean, but I have no idea how other models compare, so it might as well be a good picture. Anyway, the menu is very intuitive, everything is available on the player itself, so there is no need for remote really. But having a remote is a good idea, anyway. The feature that I liked a lot is that you can output video to a TV, so it can be used as a DVD player at home for the big screen. Also, it can read DVD-R+/which is great. It is a very good player for the money.

I bought this for my mom who takes a 6 hour round trip every 3 weeks. She has gotten alot of use out of this, and absolutely loves it. It is easy to use, which is good for her, because she usually gets flustered with electronics. I would highly recommend this product to those that like to have something simple to watch movies on that also looks great.

This is a great DVD player, especially for the price we paid. It has lots of features; my husband especially likes the swivel screen that converts it to tablet style. The anti-skip is also great; it can take a good amount of handling without interrupting play at all. The picture and sound are just as good as any portable DVD player I've seen, and the unit seems sturdy. I can't speak for the longevity of the product since we've only had it for a few days, but so far we are VERY happy with our purchase. The only thing I would change is that the instructions say to turn the player off to charge it, which means you can't plug it in and watch it to save on battery usage or when the battery is low. But that's a very minor inconvenience for us.

Wanted to use it mostly for travel. Works well but is flimsy and I am afraid it won't be very sturdy for car travel (Like the 6yr old one I am replacing that is finally giving up the ghost but can't find to repurchase.) The sound quality isn't great. But it works. If it is only for adult use it would be fine. But since it is mostly for my 3 and 4 year old for special movie times I am extra careful with it. Wouldn't purchase again.
