    I haven’t found anything to dislike. I previously returned a different make/model as it did not support dolby dvds but this does all I need, picture quality and sound all good.

    I don’t have space for a normal DVD player – so opted for this one to hook up to the TV, on the rare occasion I watch a DVD. It’s a bit clunky but does the job. The sound quality is quite poor but I either have it plugged into speakers or wear headphones.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersThe DVD player was packaged well and sturdy. It took 2 1/2 hours to fully charge then we watched a film no problem. The highest volume was loud enough for us and the screen was clear from two angles. The screen is small but it will do for our campervan.

    Great budget buy.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersI like that this is small, portable, long battery life after charging so can be used unplugged for several hours- but the screen resolution/pucture is poor, like something from 1980s, pixellated and the colours a bit washed out.
    Does the job, I wanted a small portable dvd player for the bedroom I could pop on my bedside table, I like that it has old-school clunky tech with a mechanical eject button and big obvious play and select buttons so friendly for anyone with poor vision or using in low light or without the remote.
    I think this is ideal for older folks and those with poor vision who need a big-button phone etc, and kerchunk to know you pressed something- ideal for the sick bed, hospital bed, nursing home bedroom- I think anyone under the age of 50 with good eyesight will lament the pucture quality!

    We liked this little player but it was poor enough quality that it broke after 3 months use. The whole time it was sitting on a desk and used only to watch DVD’s, so it wasn’t like it was being used hard or moved around roughly etc. Very disappointed as it feels like it was money wasted.

    Updated: changed from 1 to 4 stars as the seller stood behind their product and gave me a refund

    Golden Review Award: 168 From Our UsersBought to use on a caravan holiday for a 3 year old and is still going strong months later, and it gets used a lot! Quite robust and the screen can spin round so can be watched in tablet mode or in the car. Has worked on numerous DVD’s and CD’s, the picture quality is great and the sound quality is probably what you would expect from a portable device. You can also plug the lead which is included into your TV which is great. The charge lasts a couple of DVD’s and charges ok, probably takes a few hours to be fully charged but can be plugged in whilst watching. Really easy to use (my 3 year old can use it) All in all a great portable DVD player with multiple uses at a good price.

    Screen is really good size, picture quality is great. The only down side I would say is that it is quite noisy, fine if you are the one watching the film as you have your headphones on but not so great for the person sitting next to you! But other than that a great item.

    Golden Review Award: 81 From Our UsersBought this for my little one for the car. I Love the large screen as they are not squinting trying to watch it. Great quality and with the remote it makes it very easy to turn up and down the volume or change what they are watching from anywhere in the car. Great to keep little ones occupied on the go. It also replays where you left off when turned off so very handy when watching a film. Sound and picture quality is excellent. And the screen rotates to either 90degrees or 180degrees. It also has a USB port and an SD port so I can’t wait to download things so that we can try these out. Great purchase. Looking forward to using it more and more on long journeys. I did some research and glad that I went for this model. Battery life seems to be very good as I have only had to charge it once since we got it. I would buy this again and recommend.

    Has an SD and USB port also

    Love the picture quality on this dvd player. The sound is pretty good but a little ‘tinny’ to listen to. Four stars simply because when wearing earphones to hear the sound you can hear the revolutions of the disc which is too distracting for me. All in all good value.

    It charged up quickly and on first inspection does the job well. I will have to try it out in the car now and see whether it can be mounted onto the back of my Volvo seats.

    Happy with the item and does what we wanted it for.Delivery very prompt and well packaged.Only comments are that the sound could be a bit louder as I think background noise in a car could be a problem and the remote (which has a LOT of functions on it) could do with being bigger to use more easily.

    Fab product. Got it for my foster child for her birthday. Heavy duty enough for this pretty destructive 10yr old. It lived falling off the bunk bed, thrown in the car and stepped on. She could plug the headphones in and it. played every DVD ever bought (including cheap ones from poundland and home bargins).

    Great price and a perfect gift for my daughter. The way the screen can be tilted, turned and folded back depending on how you’re viewing is really good as-is the ability to connect to a tv. Plus it comes with all the leads you need to watch at home, in the car and connect to a tv.

    Since receiving this I have watched several DVDs and it works fine. The picture quality is good and the sound is loud enough.
    It does make a loud noise when the dvd starts but it didn’t have an effect as the sound is loud enough to drown out the noise.

    Arrived within 2 days of order . Meets all the good reports I had read . Sound and picture quality very good especially for the money . Light but well built and satisfies my requirement other than discovered made in China . This should have been made clear prior to purchase since DBPower is supposedly of Indian origin and thus I assumed that India would be the country of manufacture and I would not be contributing financially towards an undemocratic country which treats its own people with as little respect as it does the rest of the world .

    Golden Review Award: 162 From Our UsersUpdate: I’ve been testing my player for a while now and love it. I bought it to binge watch films and TV series in bed and it’s perfect for snuggling up for an evening of entertainment. It’s just the right size so not cumbersome on the bed. I put it on a small wooden board to protect from dust/overheating etc. It plays fine even when tipped. I like that the memory restarts where you left off previously for continuous watching.

    Originally I deducted one star for the low sound, but I’ve revised this because I don’t think I’d find a better quality DVD player for such a great price.

    Original review:

    I do like this little DVD player a lot. The picture is very clear. My only issue is the sound, it’s very quiet and you need headphones. I don’t like wearing headphones, but cannot hear it without. But I understand that something this small would not have good volume. With headphones it’s very good quality. That said, I think this is the best of this price range and has other good reviews, so will see how it goes.

    Golden Review Award: 201 From Our UsersSunday 22 Feb 2021 – My brother was rushed to hospital on 11 January with a severe attack of cellulitis. Despite being kept in a room on his own he also contracted Covid19 and very nearly died. All the NHS staff were brilliant but warned us things could go either way. The TV service at the hospital was broken and no one could be found willing to fix it and, as you can imagine, patients were getting very depressed with no visitors and little to do. My brother is not a mobile phone user and so I thought he might be cheered up by the DBPOWER 12.5″ Portable DVD. WHAT A DIFFERENCE THIS MADE TO MY BROTHER’S RECOVERY!! It helped him to stop focussing on how ill he was and brought some cheer and entertainment back to his life. Thank goodness for this DVD player and the contribution it has made to my brother’s recovery – we are hoping he will be able to come home next week.

The unit is smart, slick, and good to handle. The menus on screen look clunky and dated, but this doesn’t affect the function. The menus are difficult to understand at first, so you have to study the instruction book. Overall, I am glad I bought it.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersMy 22″tv with dvd player broke and I didn’t want another one taking up loads of cabinet space in my bedroom. I often watch films late at night and wanted something a little easier to have which I could simply watch lying on my bed with head phones, thus not annoying or keeping anyone else up at night. Simply brilliant. For me the picture quality is good and sound loud enough for me. It actually goes louder than I could bear, so no problem there. It’s a bit plastic looking but not enough for me to moan about. Controls on the unit good but also remote control works fine for me. It can be a little fiddly putting in and taking dvd’s out, however manageable. I spent a while researching these before my purchase. DBPower seems to come out 1st or 2nd best in most polls and now I have one, I know why. Don’t hesitate – you’ll be happy with your purchase.

    Golden Review Award: 133 From Our UsersWith budget being tight, I needed a DVD player that was region free. When I saw the advert for this player I did check the reviews and they seemed to be very positive. Having used the DVD player for a week, I can see why. The picture quality is excellent, the sound is great too. The unit can be charged which makes it totally portable. The DVD player is robust and solid. The thickness of it, is the only downside. It is quite chunky and would need a fair amount of space if you were packing it. Only beginning to see the possibilities, not got a car, so using it in that context is untested.
    Overall, delighted with the DVD player and look forward to using it.

    I bought this for a few reasons, we have young children and wanted it for car journeys camping and other away from home uses. It is robust enough to manage frequent use and handling of children. The graphics are very clear on the screen and much brighter than we imagined. The sound quality is perfect and can be managed with or without the remote. We were pleased that it came with different leads, it has a car cable, mains plug and tv connecting wires. Also it is light and compact.

I thought that was just the way it was – but this one is so quiet! No background noise so no need for headphones unless I choose to! It looks smart and seems very robust. The picture quality is excellent, very sharp and clear, and sound is good. I’m really impressed – and for such a low price! The remote is a little over the top, jam packed with buttons which surely can’t all be necessary but it isn’t an issue. Quick delivery too! Really happy with my choice!

    It arrived well before estimated time. It has a nice weight to it and is easy to use. The volume goes up to 20 which sometimes is not very loud, but after reading the instructions I saw that this can be dependent on the dvd itself too. For a personal dvd player, it is fine and if I need it louder then I will get speakers.

    Well packaged on arrival.

    The screen is crisp and clear from a variety of angles but the swivel feature which allows the screen to pivot on the base is really good.

    Controls on the top of the unit are clear as well as the included remote.

    It comes with mains and car power adaptor and the fact it’s rechargable is great. Useful for when we travel and have limited powe points.

    The screen size is a lot better than other models but a friend who uses hearing aids thinks the volume is set too low and has to use sub titles. I have noticed that the volume is very low sometimes even at it’s highest. I have contacted the seller because the Warranty registration would not work by visiting their site which not a lot of people do only to find they are offering 10% for first time buyers which makes it very lucrative at this price.

    Very please with this portable DVD player. Mostly used in my bedroom to watch my films. Very easy to use both with or without the remote. The resolution of the screen is low, but perfectly adequate for dvd use. Would highly recommend for the price. Only 2 small points that they could improve On the device. 1) the viewing angle could be better. You do need to angle it just right to get the best picture quality. 2) not a fan of the gloss exterior. This can easily end up with finger prints all over it. A Matt finish would be much better as a portable device.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI bought these machines for my son. He is Down Syndrome, Autistic and Non Verbal. He loves to watch Winnie the Pooh DVDs. However, he can become fixated on them and continue to watch them. I needed machines where he did not use the controls. These machines are perfect. By turning them around and closing with screen on top he cannot see the controls. With the added benefit of the carry case for using in the car, he will not be able to investigate the machines to see where the controls are. This is all for his benefit to ensure his quality of life is not impeded. Thank you so much for the efficient delivery. I cannot give a score on the remote control as we do not use it. However, the picture and sound are perfect for our needs.

    The DVD player works as described. I use it for my children football skill training in the park and to keep them entertained in the car. If it played MP4 video I would have given it 5 stars rather than 4. Getting the DVD player in black is more expensive which is a shame. When confirming if it played MP4 or not the customer support was absolutely EXCELLENT. Contact them ANYTIME and they live-chat!

    This is a great little DVD player. It comes with 3pin 240 plug as well as 12v car charger so you can keep charging wherever you go. It also comes with an audio visual cable which makes hooking up to a TV with AV inputs very easy. This unit does feel a little lighter and flimsy compared to a non-travel DVD player but that is to be expected. There is a travel bag available for this online. Screen is great, plays AVI files from USB. I haven’t tried the SD card yet but would expect similar performance. Volume is fine however, if you are in a noisy environment headphones recommended. Hook up to TV is really easy with the AV cable. Overall really pleased with this unit. Daughter loves it and makes for far less boring journeys, especially the longer journeys.

    This plays dvds perfectly and is more than big enough to keep children entertained in the back seat. Remote control is an essential feature for younger children so parents can decide what will be played and when.
    It can be a bit difficult to find the right file type for usb and sd card playback, resolution cannot be too high or nothing will be displayed. Other than that, very happy with this product.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThe DVD player was bought for my husband to use during hospital treatment. the battery life being most important, thought probably a bit of an exaggeration, 5 hours, but proven wrong, the player did a continuous 4 hours, playing 1 DVD and the music CDs, and still showed life left before we put the device on charge. Colour is lovely, design is good and has proven a really good purchase.

    The player is very noisy. I thought this would just be while it was setting up but it continues when the dvd is playing. It is annoying to anyone not wearing headphones and to those not using the player but are sitting nearby! I bought this for someone undergoing treatment for cancer but I don’t think she will be able to use this in the hospital.
    An update on this, the company contacted me after seeing my review and were most helpful. I received a full refund and didn’t have to return the player. This is really excellent customer service so I have given five stars.

    Golden Review Award: 177 From Our UsersI was after 2 portable DVD players for an imminent European road trip, and spent a while researching and reviewing different brands on Amazon before plumping for this one. I figured i’d buy one and if it was any good, buy the 2nd one. My initial impression was ‘cor that feels lightweight can it really be any good’ and I was sceptical, however the kids have been using it a fair bit now and i’m impressed. Picture quality and sound are good enough, although I would say the screen is sensitive to viewing angle, but being portable, that’s an easy enough thing to sort out. For the money, I gotta say this does seem to be a good buy. The great thing about this is the fact it’ll play all regions, which was brilliant as we’d accidentally bought a USA Scooby Doo box set for our little lad and he was previously unable to watch it. Would I buy again? Yup, in fact, i’m just about to… we need the second one for the trip.

    My daughter absolutely loves her new DVD player. This is the second one she has had made by dbpower. Only replaced as she broke other. Screen size, Picture and sound quality Is amazing. Simple for children to use. Brilliant that the screen turns around to go Flat. Battery life is amazing especially for in car but that said is does have a Charging lead for the cigarette lighter.
    Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a great quality portable DVD player.

    This is a handy little gadget for those places where there is no internet connection and rubbish TV!! It’s compact enough to slip into hand luggage. The picture quality is very good although the sound isn’t always loud enough but overall I’m very happy with it. I’ve used it several times and thinks it’s great. I cannot comment on the battery life as I always use it plugged in.

    Beware false promises.

    my daughter likes a DVD player and has gone through many in our time. Opted this time for the dbpower model for the first time and must say so far so good. great product for a very good price. Will update as only ben using for a week so far…but so far so good.

    Golden Review Award: 38 From Our UsersI wanted a portable DVD player for my spare bedroom which doesn’t have a TV in. I’m currently sharing with my baby so I wanted to be able to watch dvds without disturbing the baby. However unfortunately this doesn’t allow me to as the motor and click buttons are so loud. The real issue is the disc spinner motor being so loud as can even hear it through headphones on. The sound quality is also very fuzzy which is so annoying. The memory function is brilliant however the sound always jumps back up to 11 which if the headphones aren’t left plugged in obviously comes back on really loud- only made this mistake a couple of times before remembering to make sure headphones are in. The battery life isn’t that long, only a couple of hours and if plugged in it gets really hot so I wouldn’t want to leave it for too long.
    Overall I’m quite disappointed and wonder if mine might be faulty because of the poor sound quality and short battery life.
    If it still works in future then I may use it in the car or for on holidays when the sound quality might not be such an issue but for now it is unusable for what I need it for. Such a shame.

    EDIT- since my review customer services for in touch and offered a refund or replacement DVD player. I chose a replacement, yet to try it out but hoping the new one is better! Very impressed with the service received to offer this so I recommend on this basis.

    Worked out of the box without issues, the menu is a bit fiddly but one set holds those settings.

    Only two things let it down, The sound is not all that great, serviceable but not TV quality.

    Second is you need to be very careful about the charge voltage, CHECK IT FIRST. plugged t by mistake into a 24v charge point. it did not like that one little bit. I have repaired it and it is now fine but looking for a 24v charger.

    Not happy I rang Amazon and I am returning the product for a full refund. I didn’t even try and play a DVD on it … shame. I was just so mad that the description for it is so clearly incorrect.
    Off to ARGOS to purchase a BUSCH one as I need it urgently before a long drive and can’t chance ordering another one from Amazon as they can’t check it out prior to sending it as it’s from a 3rd party.

My lad has learning difficulties and he mastered it easily. Our slight concern was that the volume at max level seemed to be wanting. I contacted customer service and they responded within a couple of hours. Didn’t seem to bother my lad who happily watched films in the back seat of the car on a long journey from Ayrshire.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our Users2nd Aug 2018 – I am amending my initial 2-star review (see below) as I was contacted by DB Power following the return of the original dvd player and offered a replacement unit, but due to us being on holiday this has taken a while to get sorted. The new unit we have received works perfectly, no problems with the internal battery or anything else, and I have been hugely impressed with the level of customer service displayed by the company. I am really pleased with this dvd player, the quality of sound and picture are great and the screen size is decent. This is ideal for travel and holidays, as well as for the kids at home if they wish to watch films in their bedrooms. An excellent product at a great price!

    8th July 2018 – Sadly having to return this portable DVD player due to a fault with the internal battery. Worked perfectly while plugged into mains, good picture and sound quality, but wouldn’t switch on without mains supply despite charging overnight. Wanted for holidays and travel so decent battery life essential. Returning to Amazon for a refund on this occasion.

    This arrived the very next day, beautifully packed. After charging, we were soon playing a disc. The picture quality is excellent and more than fulfilled our expectations for the price paid. The unit is slim, and well constructed and not at all cheap looking. As I have only had the unit a few hours, I have not had time to go through all the menus, but the picture looks good without any adjustments.

    Only just started using it but up to now I’m very pleased. Seems well made and sturdy, good picture but you need to be more or less facing the screen as you lose some clarity to the side. Inbuilt speakers were just about ok with a homemade DVD but with a movie (Men In Black) even at full volume it was barely audible. With headphones though there was no problem. At less than 50 its great value for money.

    Golden Review Award: 102 From Our UsersWe have 3 young children, all 5 and under. We tend to go on a lot of holidays that generally involve driving quite a lot. Every weekend we’re in the car for at least a few hours, then we do things like driving through Europe for holiday. We have been using a selection of tablets and phones for videos and games but it’s become increasingly painful to get these working properly and with a decent selection of material for the kids. I would spend hours trying to get films downloaded then they wouldn’t work properly or the device would run out of memory etc. Then the cost of themDownloading through official avenues really is expensive.

    One night the day before a long trip I was trying to get the things set up properly and it was driving me wild. The tablets just wanted to do updates which were taking forever, the phones ran out of memory etc etc. So I had two option, spend 1500 on two new iPads and a load of movies at 10 or so each, which are really the only tablets that actually work quite well, or spend 80 on two of these DVD players.

    So at 11.45pm (!!!) on that Saturday night I hit order, fingers crossed they’d arrive on Sunday before our departure. 10.30am Sunday there they were. Plug in, disc in and press play. Could not be easier. Best thing I’ve done for keeping the kids entertained on our long journeys, plus we can use them in all sorts of other places as they seem to have a good 5 hours of battery life. Comes with mains plug and 12v car plug, plus cables to connect to TV and even a remote control. I don’t care if they break in 6 months, (they are quite plasticy but with some care I don’t foresee a problem) I’ll just spend another 40 to replace them. How much do apple want for a replacement screen on an iPad these days?!

    After getting a faulty one in term of screen, I left a 3* review. The seller decided to send another dvd. This new one is better, especially in term of screen quality and noise when the dvd is running. This is of course not the quality screen of a pad or smartphone, keep in mind this player is priced under 50. I didn’t try the speakers as i used earphones. Barttery ok last according to instructions manual.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersThe screen size on this is tremendous, you especially need a screen 9f this size when watching panoramic movies. Because with the black bars reducing the visible screen size the extra inches makes all the difference. Only 4 stars because the sound sin,t too good with the inbuilt speakers, totally recommend headphones. Remote control has plenty of options, though the layout is a bit strange and hard to find sometimes in the dark whilst watching a movie. Currently havent experimented with SD card or Audio books yet, but the memory re all is working perfectly so far, so look forward to that soon.

    I have been looking for something like this for my son and I am absolutely over the moon with this mini portable DVD player. His favourite colour is Dark Blue so this fit him perfectly. Some of the contents of the box are DVD player, remote control, instruction manual, charger and car charger. The instruction manual is very clear and laid out nicely. The screen can be swivelled like a tablet view, tilted and rotated to adjust to your viewing needs. The swivelled tablet style can easily slide into the mounted car headrest which I have brought separately – this is so useful for family trips or long outings. Overall, I’m really pleased with this. It does support a number of formats like USB, AVI and MP3 to name a few. Overall, it can be taken anywhere and anytime which is what I am after.

Sometimes when pressing “play” it just says “NO DISK”. I did find a solution to that . You open the DVD hatch, press and hold the play button , close the DVD hatch. Release the play button and amazing it plays. I hope this helps some of you readers. This player is a very good buy and full of facilities you don’t get on other players whatever you pay. I will be buying another one soon.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersDB Power 10.5″ portable DVD player. Originally purchased on a “Lightening deal” but the order was cancelled without notification and Amazon refuse to say why. Looked at the none deal price and it’s 2 dearer. So much for the “Lightening deal”.

    Re-ordered and it arrived in reasonable time.

    OK it plays DVD’s but the sound quality is poor and the volume, even on full, isn’t loud enough.
    The picture is fine.

    The player itself is very cheap plastic and appears very poor quality. At best, it’s a very basic cheap DVD player. It’s flimsy and I have no expectations of it lasting very long. 50 wasted.

    Very unimpressed by Amazons service and refusal to say why the first order was cancelled.

    Overall my advice is…….save your money and buy a product you can actually see in a shop.

    Amazon account closed.

    Up-date 19/1/2018.
    The seller has clearly read my feedback and sent me an additional DVD player as a gesture of goodwill. What a difference between DB Power Custoner Service compared to Amazons dismissal. Great customer care DB Power. Thank you.

    Excellent product. Seems to be a good build quality and plays DVD’s very well with a good quality image. I would recommend using headphones for better quality sound. We recently purchased three (two blue and one black), one for each of our 3 children who love them and they make long journeys bearable again. They play around 3 average length films before needing to be charged but curiously the black one losing charge quicker than our two blue ones, but nothing major.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersExcellent little player. I bought solely for the purpose of a solo travelling trip but have been using it regularly since. Picture and sound quality is excellent considering the cost of the unit. I use it with DVDs and usb and works great with both. Do be prepared to spend some time converting files for the USB function though. I ended up finding AVI the best. Download a decent converter and dedicate some time to it as it’s well worth it, specially if using whilst travelling as I could fit a huge amount onto one usb. Make sure your usb stick is no bigger than 8GB in size otherwise it won’t read it. As an alternative I burnt loads of video files to a writeable dvd disc and that worked great too, brings up the list of files you have burnt and you can scroll through to select the right one. The unit is lightweight so perfect for carrying round, and in my case around an airport and onboard a plane. It was great for the hotel to keep me amused and i didn’t have to worry about leaving an expensive bit of kit in the hotel like an iPad or laptop. It lasts a good three hours before it needs a recharge. Only downside is the charger cable is short, so if you want to charge and use at the same time you have to be really near a charging point. The screen can have a bit of glare if you are watching at night in the dark but you can adjust the brightness easily with one button. The player is pretty quiet, a slight low level buzz when using the dvd function, but not really noticeable especially when using with headphones. Overall I love it and wouldn’t hesitate to buy one again.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersWas looking for something to replace the Philips DVD player I had which gave up the ghost. I wanted something with a larger screen and this seemed to fit the bill.
    The first unit sent to me had an issue with the soldering of the earphone plug which resulted in a static noise and sound bleeding through with the headphones plugged in. Upon contacting the seller, a new unit was immediately dispatched. This one has so far worked just fine.

    The player is lightweight compared to the heavy Philips model, circa 2005, which is not a bad thing. It’s used to watch DVDs to wind down at the end of the night before the light is switched off and sleep comes. For this purpose it ticks the boxes for me. The price was attractive, as is the fact it is a universal player since I have my Region 1 collection with me. I’ve no complaints over the sound reproduction, best listened to with headphones, or colour rendering; and am very happy at this stage with the purchase.
    I like the rotating screen as it does give viewing options.

    For my purposes I am very happy with the product and am now ready to be entertained the next time my back goes out!

    Bought this to take on holiday so that we can watch DVDs while travelling and on the rainy days – It comes with an AV out socket and cable, so you can plug it into any TV with AV in sockets (or buy SCART / HDMI adaptors and then it’s pretty much every TV).

    My first impression is that it feels very ‘plasticy’ and a bit flimsy. I am a bit weary when I swivel the screen, in case I swivel it the wrong way and snap it, but so far no problems. It is very light, and doesn’t take up very much space.

    The sound is good – don’t expect anything huge from the bass, but the internal speakers do go loud enough (much louder than my laptop).

    The picture is also good. The viewing angle isn’t huge, but for one or two people you can get the right angle, and the screen is very easy to move to all angles.

    It is very easy to switch between DVD/CD and USB/SD modes. This is nice for sharing pics, as you can plug it into a TV for everyone to see. One thing that is a shame is that it doesn’t support all video formats, so you can’t view these.

    All in all, it’s a very good price for a good DVD playe

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI agree with most other reviewers on appearance and such but will add my tuppence worth where the others left things out.

    I bought two of these at the same time one 10 inch and one 7.5 inch – I will he reviewing each separately.

    The player arrived already charged so I attached the charger and left it till the single light went out. I then played dvds one after another (another different light came on when player was switched on) till the battery depleted. This was from 22.10 hrs till 4.05 hrs. You get no warning of battery at zero screen just blanks. I was watching The Godfather.

    Sound was ok, sounds good with sufficient volume for me but there is a headphone socket so I could plug in a portable speaker. I found the smaller model had less volume but ok as if you are sat closer to it it does not need to be loud.

    I then put the player to recharge but went to sleep so sorry can’t tell you how long the recharge took.

    When player was fully charged I watched two short movies and then put The Godfather disc back in. I pressed play on the remote and the film resumed exactly where it was up to when the battery ran out despite removing disc and recharging and playing two other films.

    The remote control has tiny, tiny buttons. The play button also pauses your movie is situated in centre of remote immediately below the blue triangles for up, down and left, right. Why oh why don’t they put the Play button at the top next to the Power button and alongside Mute then you can find these in a dark bedroom, caravan or car. The remote takes two AAA batteries that do not come with the player.

    Picture is great but having the 7.5″ model I could compare and the smaller model has a more distinct sharper picture. This is the same as with the 10.1 inch Kindle Fire and its smaller editions. I am referring about the Kindle Fires that have microSHMC card slot. The smaller screen has the sharpest picture.

    It has played every single dvd I have tried but I have no blue ray discs and only a few USA discs not tried yet.

    The appearance looks cheap, has charger, car adaptor, games disc and games player – not tried yet, cables to send dvd signals to a tv, remote control BUT NO BATTERIES for the remote control.

    Like someone else wrote for the price I paid if it lasts 12 months I will be happy.

    I watch TV on my larger Kindle Fire HDX and the new larger screened 10.1″. There are so many films to watch especially on Prime but I miss my dvd films that are not available or not free on Prime and so now I can watch both – by swapping the small devices over.

    By the way this player plays letter box sized movies but if you use cables and connect the dvd player to your TV you get the letterbox movie in full screen mode on your TV. You can even watch both your big and little screens at the same time.

    Another point made by a reviewer is that the player is old fashioned in the sense that it is too thick to fit in some car harnesses. We use a type that is a wallet type holder for swivel screen dvd player stitched to a wide firm elastic band that wraps around the head restraint of the car seat in front fixed with very wide velcro. It is an excellent holder but I doubt the 7.5″ model will fit.

    I bought a holder off Amazon for fixing a tablet to a car head restraint from same manufacturer and the broad elastic fixes the same way in fact there are 2 types – there is an additional one that allows for a deeper device so this may help people who read this for fixing devices for rear passengers. Instead of a fixed wallet there are metal brackets that fix to the broad elastic.

    All in all I am pleased with this playe

    Golden Review Award: 63 From Our UsersI bought this for my mother who was bed ridden recuperating from a fall. Arrived the day after ordering and well packaged and protected. This device is easy to use for those who are not too tech savvy . Be aware it only plays DVDs not Blurays. The sound is OK on speakers, but not great, used with headphones it is much better. The picture quality is again ok not great and is very sensitive to angle, however the screen is very easy to adjust, so this is not as problematic as it would be on a TV. Two people sat side by side may not get the best picture, so consider it as a personal use device. The rechargeable battery lasts well , manufactured quotes 3 hours, but my mother was able to watch two 2 hour films before it needed recharging. So overall good bit of kit, but if you are used to an iPad you may be disappointed with quality, but then my iPad costs 650, this is a tenth of the price, so you get what you pay for.

    I was excited when I first got this as it really looked like a simple portable device for watching our DVDs on holiday and while travelling. The picture is fine and the controls straightforward enough. Sadly, the sound quality is very poor. Every Dvd we watch has to be paused and restarted every few minutes when the audio goes out of time with the picture. Today I attempted to watch a dvd on a plane with headphones but I gave up because the audio was unbearable. In addition to the aforementioned sound lag, the dialogue was inaudible at the top volume while the music and background noises were deafening!

    On leaving this review I got an email almost immediately offering a refund or replacement. I have received a replacement in less than a week but as I’m back to work now haven had a chance to test whether the audio is better. I will update when I know if it was a one off or not.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThis is a really good portable DVD player which I have been using now for several weeks.

    The player looks a bit like a small laptop and I was really surprised by how light it is! It is SO light and therefore really convenient to carry about – it is truly portable.

    It is simple to charge and it does seem to hold its charge very well.

    It is easy to get up and running. Once your film is playing, the picture is very clear and at 10.5″ the screen is a big enough size to really be able to enjoy what you’re watching. The sound is clear and is not distorted, even at louder volumes.

    The screen itself lifts up (like on a laptop) and it swivels, so you can angle it at the position you want it at – very useful when you have more than one child trying to watch it!

    I like the fact that it comes with the games and controller – a very good idea which makes it more versatile.

    The player has been particularly useful in the car for long journeys where my children tend to easily get bored and start moaning.

    Overall, this is a really good product and I really like it.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersNote: The maker supplied a review sample for evaluation, the opinion of the product is my own personal view

    With a size of around 29cm wide and 21cm width this has a similar footprint to a smaller notebook/netbook though it’s quite a light item. The main appeal of this player is that it’s not just a DVD playback device but also can:

    – Play other video and audio formats via the SD card or USB port: Xvid, AVI, MPG, MP4, WAM, MP3 etc (most of the common formats are here but there are many sub formats esp MP4 not all will work)
    – DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW you can playback from your own media discs (not all players allow this) there is no region coding either
    – Copy music and video files you can rip MP3 files from a CD too
    – It’s also possible to input video and audio via a supplied cable. Also included are a UK power adapter, car charger and mini game controller (plus CD) and a button remote (fairly decent too takes 2x AAA cells) The TV AV socket is blanked out on the model I looked at (marked but nothing to connect to)

    Manual could use some work with broken English and translation errors it’s not that clear but you can muddle though it with a bit of work and it’s fairly straight forward as the buttons on both the main control panel and remote are logical enough. On the side are slots for the SD card, USB, AV in/out and power switch it’s all quite straightforward as you’d expect for a product of this type.

    I’ve not used the previous model but this one is said to have a larger battery and capable of 3 hours of playback. What’s the verdict? For the most part it’s a good little player the screen is quite good in clarity and with respectable viewing angles (side to side is good less so top to bottom but can’t complain much) multi angle is a nice feature you can twist the screen around and lay it flat or at an angle. Sound was a bit weedy but I dived into the menu and tweaked the settings and managed to get much better output it’s not going to blow you away but it’s good enough to hear fairly clearly (odd that out of the box it’s very quiet the maker should look at the factory defaults on this) for music I’d use the headphone socket… this can be hooked up to speakers if you want a portable CD player.

    Playback was smooth with little drive noise or vibration it did a nice job on this with anti shock preventing car bumps from skipping (seems to have 2-3 seconds of shock resistance should work fine for most cars bar a Land Rover off road). The included “games” are very much retro “80’s” in appearance and the control pad is a nice idea though a little spongey it works by plugging it into the rear USB port it’s not a bad add on to have for smaller kids but not a major feature of the player I can’t see it getting a lot of use (games are not going to stack up well v modern ones)

    Due to the larger screen it’s not a small player by any means and the market might be declining for portable DVD players; I still see some use for them even with tablets being so popular. As this can be used as a media card reader you can load up music and films onto a card or USB stick it’s quite flexible you can’t really fault the maker for trying they’ve shoved quite a lot in here to broaden the appeal more. Aside from the manual I’d like to see a somewhat longer car charging lead (just about long enough to reach a back seat an extra 30-45cm would be nice) some might prefer rotary dials for volume/screen adjustments this is menu driven. Nit picks aside (build feels reasonable enough light but not flimsy) it’s a nice little player that does the intended job quite well and the price is attractive too. It’s certainly a lot better than the budget portable player I bought 4-5 years ago and can be recommended.

    A pretty good portable DVD playe
