Customer Reviews

Excellent, handy, robust
This is a great little device. It is solidly built, has good audio and video, and easy controls. I use it all over the house these days to watch movies or listening to my Ipod while running on the treadmill, doing dishes, folding laundry, or playing on my computer.

Audio: speakers can play much louder and better than you'd expect from a unit this size. I was afraid it would have a small tinny sound I wouldn't be able to hear when making any noise myself. It has a lot of power and sounds very good.

Video: 7" is a good screen size. Picture is wonderful even on lowest brightness setting. No problems with motion artifacts. Subtitles on DVDs are clear and readable.

External Hookups: Has 2 headphone plugins. Comes with AV cable to output to a TV or take input from any device.

Controls: Buttons are sturdy and straightforward. Thankfully everything is done with separate buttons rather than being hidden in a painful menu system like so many other products. You can switch aspect ratio, audio-video source and control all aspects of DVD playing from buttons right on front center of device. Remote has similar excellent controls are nicely labeled. Remote comes with battery.

Build Quality: Very sturdy. One of the reasons I move it around a lot is because I can - it is strong enough to handle it. When the lid is closed it fits nicely in the hand and keeps playing then you just pop it open again where you want. Controls on side for brightness and volume are recessed so they don't stick out. All edges are bevelled or rounded so it's smooth and easy to carry.

Random Things: It's nice that it comes with the AV cable to output to a TV or take input from another device. Also comes with a car lighter adapter. Stated battery life of 2.5 hours is only for playing DVDs. It will play Ipod video for 5+ hours.

Complaint: internal battery only charges when device is switched to Off. To be perfect it should recharge anytime it's on AC power.

Overall: This thing is a great device for extending your Ipod listening/watching away from headphones-only. It's light, strong, and has good video and audio output.

Battery life
Battery life is about 2.5 hours. Initial charge required is 8 hours. Recharges in 6 hours. Must be turned off to recharge. Battery is built into unit.

I am considering buying this and it took me forever to find the above info, so I just thought I'd share.

Great player especially for the price
As person who travels a lot, I'm always looking for something to pass the time in airports, trains, cars, etc. And I saw this for sale at Circuit City I had to go check it out. This is a nice little unit. It plays DVDs, Ipod video, inputs from a secure digital card, and plays dvix .avi files. WOW and for a price of $139.00 I picked one up. My previous DVD player was a Toshiba, and the sound was poor, this one has great sound, I can actually hear it without having headphones in. And the color is crisp, and clean. I like it! I can't believe the deal for the price. Most other DVD players without having access to Ipod video, is around $200.
