    This Sony replaces my 7" Phillips portable.

    Used primarily by my children and also on flights & holidays, 2 key areas of importance for me are battery life and durability. The Sony ticks both boxes giving a true 5-hour battery life and a sturdy well put together frame made from quality material.

    I found the image quite detailed, clear and easy to view, sound quality good for the size of the unit and included all the features you would expect on a DVD player

    Compared to my old unit and other units I looked at, in today's market, even when put against some much more expensive units the Sony still won the day.

    I'm Sure there are some better units out there but I could not find one at this price point.

    The unit also features audio & composite video INPUT as well as OUTPUT, 2 x headphone sockets, USB input for memory sticks and card readers as well as a hold button to disable the unit's controls if required. The screen also opens fully flat to the unit (180 deg not 360deg). There is however no S-video or component out/inputs.

    The thin battery attaches secularly to the bottom of the unit creating a well-proportioned player that does not feel particularly bulky. Charge time from flat can be up to 5 hours with a battery indicator function to tell you how much charge is left.

    The unit comes with a remote control & a car battery adaptor that plugs in to the cigarette lighter socket.

    As for formats it will play DVD DVD-RW/-R, DVD+RW/+R, VIDEO CD/MUSIC CD CD-RW/-R, DivX, MP3 and JPEG

    After extended use I am very pleased with the unit and would happily recommend it as a cost effective 7" portable DVD player

    Typical good Sony 13 April 2008
    The DVD player was delivered at 11.00am the morning after ordering at 4.00pm.
    The display spec is a little dissapointing but in reality the picture quality is very good. When using head phones as I usually do , on very quiet passages there is a little motor noise created by the DVD unit but to be honest it does not spoil the usage at all. Photo and MP3 playback are great.
    As usual Amazon beat all contenders on price.
    All in all a great buy and the battery on playback is as good as they claim , the best I have had is 5 hours 38 mins to a charge.

    Great Little Player 11 Jun 2008
    I bought this to entertain two children on a four hour flight and it was spot on. Of course, the built in speaker is no competition to the noise of an aircraft but the two headphone sockets meant that that was no real problem.

    I also used this as a standard DVD player while on holiday and plugged it straight into a 37inch widescreen TV with the supplied leads. The picture / sound quality was superb especially as I was mostly playing .avi files through it. The battery life exceeded the stated maximum when used in this way as the player's own screen was switched off.

    I've successfully played +R and -R DVD disks with ISO files and AVIs, standard DVD movies and MP3's on disk. I also plugged my camera's memory stick into the USB port via a USB card reader. The access time between photos was a little slow (couple of seconds) and it couldn't play the movies from my Sony camera but the photo display was excellent.

    I looked a few other players (both cheaper and more expensive) before settling on the Sony and after a couple of weeks of using it I'm glad I went for this one.

    Very good all rounder. Many DVD players look good when the image is static. However when the image pans from side to side the background, especially if it is a complex image, can... Read more
