Customer Reviews

Very cool little unit - look for the DVD-L75 - even better!
I bought the nearly-identical Samsung DVD-L75 at Best Buy a month ago and I LOVE it! As far as I can tell, the DVD-L75 is the same same unit as this DVD-L70 but even better - with a STANDARD 4.2 hour battery...so you can watch two movies on a cross-country flight! The unit has a very nice picture and it's super slim and lightweight. I looked at MANY units (at about 10 stores) over a week or so, and this is the first one in the under $300 range that caught my attention.

The only problem I found, like other reviewers mentioned, was that the maximum volume was too low under some circumstances (e.g., on an airplane). I solved that problem with a headphone booster from Radio Shack for about $20: an added bonus is that it has 3 outputs, so you can share with your traveling companion.

Completely Unacceptable
I purchased the Samsung DVD-L75 at Best Buy, along with a 2 year extended warranty (always a good idea with portable DVD players.) We purchased it for use on long car trips and the first time we used it, the player stopped and restarted itself from the beginning of the movie. My children complained after the 2nd or 3rd time it did this but I assumed it was due to my son jostling it or even from it getting overheated since he held it on his lap. A month later on our next car trip, it did it again. This time we tested it on a stable surface at home and it did it again. I took it back to Best Buy and they sent it off to be serviced (it was after the 30 day return period), but of course found nothing wrong with it after having it for 4 weeks. We took it out to the parking lot to test it and 5 minutes into the movie, it stopped and restarted itself. I took it back into the store and since they didn't actually see it happen, they refused to do anything about it. I will try again tomorrow to take it back and get some sort of resolution but my advice is DO NOT BUY THIS DVD PLAYER! I wish I had read these reviews first.

We just bought a cheapie Target brand DVD player (TruTech) and it works great - it may not look as cool or have the brand name but hey, it works and that's what counts! At the price of the TruTech ($99), we can buy two for the same price as the Samsung. And Target has a 90 day return policy (keep original packaging) which is far better than Best Buy's 30 day policy.

Moral of the story - I am through with Samsung and with Best Buy.

Nice player, unstable playback
I loved the price and value of the player. The picture is nice and feature set just right.

The main problem is that when I sit in a bus, the jerks often stop the playback. Annoyingly, I have to turn the player off and on again, suffer through copyright notices, etc.

Now looking for a better model!
