Strengths: Long battery life. User-friendly controls and screen flexibility.
Weaknesses: Poor screen resolution and volume is not loud enough to hear through BOSE noise-cancelling headphones.
Summary: Bought this player at Best Buy for $179 prior to a trip to Asia (13 hour flight), and viewed 4 movies with no battery power concerns. The LCD resolution and sound volume was not as good as the Sony DVP-FX820, but twice the battery life of 12 hours sold me. The thickness is over 2 inches which makes it a little difficult to slip in a briefcase and the AC power supply contacts do not fold and is bulky.

Strengths: Very good picture,, plays al formats of DVD's
Weaknesses: Battery very good , plays about 6 Hours on full britness, instead of 13 hours..--Sound could be a little louder on earphones and on Ext speakers.
Summary: About best portable DVD player I have Tested . Every thing on the player was very good. I like the style and the larger screen. The sound could be a little loader.

Strengths: great picture and sound quality
Weaknesses: It took a few attempts to attach the battery. Hold release and slide simultaneously. Have not been able to slide or get LCD into compact position.
Summary: The outstanding feature is the long battery life which I need for international flights. The case is attractive although the buttons are to close which causes me to hit volumn when I do not intend to do so. Overall its okay as soon as I figure out above weaknesses.
