Pros Nice, large bright screen. All the cables you could need included. Cheap. Great features!
Cons Heavy. Doesn't unfold flat when battery is connected. RCA jacks must connect to TV!
Recommended it? Yes

I spent a lot of time doing research trying to find just the right portable DVD player to waste my money on. This is the one I picked. It's hard to compare them because they each have so many pros and cons between them. Most of them are little things - remote doesn't work unless the DVD is running... Read full review »

I saw the Portable DVD's at Bestbuy & fell in love with the idea. (Guys buy stuff they want not what they need.) I started my research to get the best bang for the dollar. after everything was researched, I found this gem of a unit at Targets for $470. It played everything PLUS it had all this...

The Search

Pros price, easy hook up to tv, battery life
Cons no case
Recommended it? Yes

I have had zero problems with this dvd player. It has made several plane and restaurant trips. The battery life is more than acceptable. So far, it has definitely been worth the money.

My wife and I frequently use it in our suvs. It works great on the case in between the seats. Our... Read full review »

A good buy!

bylcseds Nov 6, 2002

Pros Picture, price
Cons Pauses
Recommended it? Yes

I just bought this item after having looked at the Apex and Mintek units also. I was trying to keep the price down. The Mintek at Best Buy had noticeable horizontal "pixel" lines, and the picture lacked color. It appeared somewhat washed out. The Apex at Circuit City looked really fuzzy and again...

Pros Picture quality, battery life
Cons Opening the screen, and attaching the battery are a bit tricky
Recommended it? Yes

I recently took my 8-year old son on a plane trip across the country, and this DVD player was the perfect way to keep him occupied.

He watched 2 DVDs (each about 90 minutes long) and got no indication that he had exhausted battery power.

The picture quality was great, and... Read full review »

Wait for technology to catch up

Pros Unfortunately,Best portable DVD player period at this time.
Cons Doesn't play all DVD discs
Recommended it? No

The Audiovox dv1680 is a good player, but it still doesn't cut it. If you're interested in a screen larger than this one, you might as well go for a 10" Sony Vaio laptop and get some computing power as well. This screen is just as wide as a DVD, no wider, and long, so it's 4:3, just in case you... Read full review »

Pros Excellent picture quality, low cost, slim design (relatively speaking)
Cons Somewhat hefty
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the DV1680 for my significant other to take with her to her kid's extracurricular activities. I gave it a quick one-over before giving it up though :)

First off, every website and review mentions that it's a "slim" design. Even the box says this. While it *IS* slimmer than the... Read full review »
