Customer Reviews

Philips Portable DVD Player
I was looking for simplicity in a portable DVD Player without any extras. This model is great for viewing my DVD's and playing my CD's at home and in the car. It is easy to use, has a great picture and sound, charger and car adapter included at a low, affordable price. Great product, you won't regret it!

Great Buy
As we have frequent car trips of 2 hours to visit family on weekends, we picked up this DVD player for our 20 month old toddler. Our trips are now happy trips. This is a perfect size, the picture and sound are great. It easily plugs into any TV where we stay to view movies on a standard size TV for the family.

Most importantly it works well and our trips are now comfortable for everyone and she no longer minds the time it takes to get there. The battery does last two hours but we just plug it in to the included car adapter and we don't worry about it.

This player is so easy to run you don't really need the instructions.

Great Buy.

Defective battery, other flaws
Granted, not everyone is going to end up with a defective battery (mine, after only 2 charges, was limited to 30 minutes of playing time), but there are other issues as well. The power button is extremely small and difficult to manage, the cover for the DVD feels particularly flimsy, and the volume wheel on the side is downright inconvenient - and very outdated. It's very light, but presumably, that's because the battery isn't as substantial. For the extra $10 or so, the 7" Sony - which includes a remote control as well, great if you have kids, and MUCH better battery life and controls - is a large improvement.
