Pros Portability. DVD-audio. Weight without battery.
Cons Weight with battery. Sound without headphones.
Recommended it? Yes

When I first got this product, I thought I made a mistake in purchasing it. I asked myself when and where am I going to use this???? Well, I use this almost every night. I stay up late at night alot, later than my wife. So whenever she falls asleep and I don't want to wake her up with the TV on, I... Read full review »

Pros 7" screen; compact size; excellent battery life
Cons Bulky, heavy battery; malfunctioned after 2 weeks
Recommended it? Yes

The LA85 is an incredibly compact device that delivers a good picture. In general, I'm pleased with my purchase: I travel frequently and it's proved a great way to kill time on long flights. While everyone else is straining and squinting to watch a "B" movie on the airplane's awkwardly located... Read full review »

Great player, but could be better

Pros Portabily and great battery life
Cons Battery size and some pixelation
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this player so that I can watch movies while traveling alone. I was hoping for something that would make the long trips go by faster.

The first impression of the player right out of the box is how small and thin it is. It's about the size of a DVD case. But don't be fooled by... Read full review »

Pros Compact, Easy to use, a very cool toy overall
Cons Slightly faded Image in "brighter" scenes
Recommended it? Yes

*Price paid: $ 650.00 on Ebay

I wanted a portable DVD player, but did not want to pay $1000+, period. I took a road trip with a pal last month, and he had the Panasonic model LA-75 which I took full advantage of while he slaved away behind the wheel.

After that trip, I did a... Read full review »

The one caveat-LA85

byamlaskin Aug 8, 2001
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Picture, long battery life, lightweight
Cons Sound on loud jets
Recommended it? Yes

Everything which has been said about this unit being the great toy of this era is true. There is, however, one thing to be mindful of. As loud and crisp and perfect as the unit sounds when you use it a standard environment with a standard pair of walkman style headphones, you are in for a shock... Read full review »

Kept the kids from fighting!

Pros small, lightweight, SO easy to use
Cons service cost, volume control only on the unit, not on remote
Recommended it? Yes

The remote is slim and easy to use. Our oldest, 6 at the time, mastered it with ease. The headphone jack makes it easier to listen to over road noise in the car. We bought a headphone jack splitter so our two older children could both listen to the movie.
When open, there isn't much wasted... Read full review »
