Sony sets the standard for build quality and design very high, and this portable player ranks right up there. The sceen can be turned 360° and lay flat against the base. The playback controls are nestled on the LCD half, making them very east to access. Plays all my burnt dvd-r full size and mini disks no matter what software I, use Linux or Windows. Battery life is nothing short of fantastic I, can watch a couple of 2hr movies with juice to spare. Comes with an adaptor cable to hook it up to a TV or flick the switch on the side to video in and it becomes a wide screen display for my PS2... very nice on long trips. My biggest complaint is very weak audio though the built in speakers. I, thought maybe it might be a defect so I, bought another unit, with the exact same low volume, but the dual headphone jacks sound great with a decent pair of headphones. The sceen is very reflective so outdoor veiwing can be annoying, but easily fixed by adjusting the brightness and moving it around. Also the display is not nearly as sharp as would be expected from a name like Sony, its not bad but I've seen much sharper on far less expensive units. I, would recommend buying this model for the build quality alone, it just feels and looks very sleek and rich, and I, expect to last many years as other Sony products I've owned.Read full review
The Good - This portable DVD player has a great picture. Very clear. Very easy to set the clarity by simply moving the screen. Access to buttons are very easy as well. The remote makes it all that much more simple. Holds a great charge. Still had functionability after one movie. Great to see that it comes with accessories. Very Sturdy. The Bad - This portable DVD player is a little bit on the heavy side. Sound is tinny. This is immediately corrected with any set of earbuds. Needs to add protective carrying pouch and earbuds with accessories...dunno why it doesn't, it came with everything else.
Although I thought I had purchased a new portable Sony DVD player, it appears to be only slightly used. It has a great swivel screen feature allowing balance and space-challenged locations to be used (such as on an airplane when the guy in front of you has reclined all the way!! It is very easy to use and has a wonderful picture. There are a myriad of functions and controls available on the remote. Its large screen makes viewing even the most intricate scenes easily accomplished. I think you would like this for your portable DVD playing.
Its very compact. It comes with all the a/c and d/c adapters. The screen turns 180 degrees, and folds flat. DVD viewing and sound are great, including two headphone outputs for private listening. The unit also has video/sound input which allows us to plug our RV backup camera into it and use it as a monitor for that system. Also we can plug our digital still camera into it for sharing photos with family and friends. Loaded with features for the traveler. Battery life is good enough to finally watch a full length feature or 2 without recharge. I do not have any dislikes.
This product is easy to use and does more than the 5 or 6 other portable DVD players I have owned. The remote takes regular batteries. None of my other players did that. Being old and clumsy I have accidentally dropped it and there has been no damage to it or the remote. I bought a second player and remote so I can keep using this model for as long as I am likely to live.
