Pros DVD's anywhere, quality parts
Cons NiMH battery requires complete discharge
Recommended it? No

I recently purchased an Aiwa XD-DW1 and while I think it was a very good choice for me, it might not be right for everyone. I thought I might share some of my thoughts on it:

I can now take DVD movies with me anywhere. I thought this feature would come in handy on both long trips and when... Read full review »

Well worth it

Pros compact, good screen, high quality sound and visual
Cons not great battery life
Recommended it? Yes

True, it's a tad bit pricey, but it's well worth the price and here's why. Another epinion in this category says that for a little more you could buy a laptop with a DVD player built in, so why waste your money on this. Well, that's true, however it is still an appreciable amount more to go for the... Read full review »

This portable dvd player is pretty cool, you can carry it wherever you want, on buses, cars or even just sit out in the garden with it.....
BUT.... is it worth it? if you save a bit more money, you could buy a computer or laptop, which includes DVD, giving you the freedom, and extra, being able... Read full review »

Quality product, poor design

bytochriste Jun 2, 2000
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Crisp picture, great sound
Cons bulky battery, short life
Recommended it? Yes

The AIWA XD-DW1 has a beautiful crisp picture and the sound is out of this world, especially if you use good headphones. It is less expensive than the comparable Panasonic L-50, and it comes with a cable that attaches to your television.

On the negative side, it doesn't seem that much... Read full review »

Pros picture quality
Cons battery, portability
Recommended it? Yes

Boys will have their toys, and this is one of the best I've gotten yet!

Aiwa is one of my favorite electronics brands in my price range. It is certainly not top of the line, but it's not bargain basement either. Anything I have gotten made by Aiwa has been good quality, and the XD-DW1 is... Read full review »

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Compact, CDR compatible, plays DVD/VCD/CDs
Cons Heavy, Non-Standard power plug, low max volume, No International Power Brick
Recommended it? Yes

This unit has very few surprises. Not many hidden features, but also not many flaws and gotchas that come up after the return period is over. The specs are available easily online, so let's not belabor them.

Firstly, the unit is thick. without the battery, it is about the size of 5 or 6... Read full review »

Pros Portable DVD, CD, VCD, SVCD, MINI-DVD
Cons None!!
Recommended it? Yes

I was lucky enough to get this refurbished for under $500, it was well worth the money if you ask me

+Graphics are very crisp. The only thing that I have to mention about the graphics is that the LCD screen it uses does NOT support 16:9 aspect ratios, which means you'll have to deal with... Read full review »

Pros Price
Cons Screen Size
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this product two months ago at Best Buy in Memphis, Tennessee. When I first opened the package I found that the screen only measures up to 5.8 inches wide. I hooked it up to my Sony HDTV and was pleased at the picture quality in the hookup. Another thing I found displeasing was the... Read full review »
