 pros & cons January 5, 2009
C. J. Carson (VENTURA, CA United States)
I just got this so this is based on a brand new product, not its dependability. Pros: first off I'd like to say how happy I am with the volume. My previous player could hardly be heard at top volume. This one is loud enough at 50%! I used to have to use headphones when not necessary in order to hear my old Mustek player. Another pro is that the screen is non-glare, a big plus in my book. However, the con is- the area surrounding the screen is not non-glare and it's very distracting while trying to view the show. I have to play with the screen to get it just in the right angle so as to avoid that annoying glare. But, for the price and screen size, IF it HOLDS UP! it will be a purchase worth the money. I'll keep my fingers crossed! I did notice with my Mustek that changes in temp do affect its performance to the point of not working for several days...hence the new player!
Solid portable DVD player January 5, 2009
S. Salant (New York, NY)
I've only watched one DVD on this player, so I can't speak to the battery life (though it seems to be consistent with what's advertised), but I would definitely recommend this DVD player. The screen is very good and the sound is also really good (with headphones). I was debating getting a 10" screen, but it didn't seem like the higher price was worth it, and this player got the highest rating (the highest 10" rating I saw was 4 stars). I would agree with what some other people have said, that you probably don't really notice the difference between 8" and 10" that much. This unit does lack a USB port, which would have been nice, which was why I'm only giving it 4 stars, but if you just want this for watching DVDs, it's great.
 You can't go wrong with Sony January 4, 2009
Bookworm (Los Angeles, CA, USA)
My daughter hated to go on the fwy for long drives, so I bought this to keep her entertained in the back seat. There are some other DVD players with lower prices, but I chose this one because I always trusted Sony products, no matter it's as cheap as an AM/FM radio or as expensive as a laptop computer. And I was proved right again this time. It worked flawlessly. The best feature I think is the "stop and resume", which means when you press "stop" on the remote, the machine will ask you if you want to start it from the beginning (if you do, press stop again) or from where you stopped, it's quite useful if it's a long drive and you have to make frequent stops, when you come back in the car and turn on the DVD player, it will start exactly where you stopped last time.
Great Item! January 3, 2009

This is great product. The picture is really good and the sound is great! I kept on half contrast like was suggested. The batterie lasted 6 hours. I would recommend this product highly.
Best portable dvd for the kids yet January 1, 2009

This is our third portable dvd player. Mostly used for our young children, this player is the first one we've had with a "hold" button that prevents curious fingers from pushing buttons and interrupting play. This player also has two headphone inputs so that they can watch together with headphones.
Nice battery life and easy to plug in for television viewing. This one's a keeper.
