here a current review by a customer who bought the Philips 7 Portable dvd Player wide-screen through Amazon
“I bought this from a walk in store the day before a long car trip with our daughter. I picked this unit over a Panasonic that was twice as expensive since the Panasonic’s screen though bigger, had a much worse picture! (lots of jaggies on the Panasonic). This Philips screen is nice and clear.
The unit appears to be well constructed and even survived 2 falls from the rear seat of our PT Cruiser to the floor during a couple of hard stops. Though it fell and clunked hard (there was a DVD movie in it but the unit was turned off) the player worked flawlessly over the next 4 days.
I like that it has a volume knob and not just up/dn pushbuttons – this is much easier to adjust the volume on. Volume levels using the built in speaker are loud, but not likely loud enough in the environment of a driving car. Headphone volume is plenty loud if need be.
Philips 7 Portable dvd Player conclusion:
Over the 4 days we played store bought movies, but also some DVD’s I burned onto -R discs (a video of a play my daughter was in). There was no skipping or cutouts during any of the videos, even in our bumpy PT Cruiser.
Battery life was better than 2 hours when we used it in the hotel room. In the car you can use the lighter adapter to power the unit which has the added benefit of giving you a brighter screen (the screen brightness is turned down a bit on battery power to save energy).
Overall I am quite impressed with this unit and glad I picked it over the Panasonic L80. ”
