I bought this for my husband for his Christmas present. I was skeptical about getting it because I thought for the price it would be a piece of junk, but I was sooooo wrong!!!! This is a great portable dvd player for the price! The picture is great, the sound is good, and it is not complicated to work at all!
My husband does a lot of driving for work and takes this with him every day & loves it! It has 2 hours battery life for watching dvd's, and 4 hours battery life if you are just listening, not watching the screen. But, you don't have to worry about battery life half the time because it comes with a car charger and a home charger.
You can also plug it into any TV and use it as a regular stationary dvd player!!! We have it in our bedroom to watch movies at night! It works just as good as the dvd player in our living room!!!
Can't beat it for the price!

I bought this portable DVD player to watch DVD movies and my own home made DVD+R's at work, to my surprise it plays everything it advertises and also DVD+R's and DVD+RW's, one thing it fails to mention and it really should is the Surperb Audio system for earphones, the built in speakers are no better than whats on a laptop but put on a very good pair of earphones and tweak the audio from the built in equalizer, bass boast and super boast and you have the sound and feel of very large and good theater sound system, its about the best sound system I have heard from a portable item. Picture quality very good, widescreen is a plus. This will also play VCD, XVCD, SVCD, XSVCD of any bitrate and resolution, I made a 704x480 at 4000 bitrate as a non complaint MPEG2 SVCD and it played it back perfect.

About 2 yrs ago I forked out about [$$$] for a top name state of the art portable dvd player and eventually sold it ... because I felt so guilty for buying such an expensive toy.
I bought this one thinking it was okay to indulge since it was so much cheaper and thinking it would be inferior to the one I had before--I was wrong...this brand offers more than the name brand of more [$$$] offered 2 years ago. This dvd player has superior sound, picture and bells and whistles that a toy of this magnitude should have. The fact that it comes with a car adapter and a four-hour battery should be enough that one buys this one instead of the [$$$] huge screen-name-brand (and lets face it, buy a laptop if you want a huge screen). The only thing that I have a problem with, and this is by no means initials fault, is that it is a square size instead of rectangular, so it doesn't fit into the old case I had bought for the old one...I can't praise this item enough...If your looking for a...
