Pros: instinctive to use, compact and durable case, good image

Cons: on/off button is very small

The Bottom Line: great for long trips; easy to install and remove in car; convenient carry case; durable

Review: We got this as a Christmas present for our 5-year-old daughter. We finally tested it out this past weekend on an 11-hour trip to Colorado. I think it saved my sanity. It sets up very easily on the back of a front seat of a truck (we have a Dodge ...

Pros: I just can't put any words together but outstanding, outstanding, outstanding!

Cons: Unit gets warm when being used either by the AC adaptor or by the battery.

The Bottom Line: Overall the quality of the unit is what brought me to buy this unit and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a full feature personal dvd player!

Review: In all the years of traveling, this is a must have! Never in my life have I enjoyed a vacation like this past week because I had the opportunity to view movies and past season TV shows like "24" when I was in Jamaica where they only have two local ...

Pros: I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

Cons: The carry bag is big, like two bags in one.

The Bottom Line: Buy it, try it. I'm so happy I didn't listen to the nay-sayers!!!!

Review: I also got my player as a package from Sam's Club. Then I read all the neg. feedback by others and wondered, how can I get a refund back for this piece of junk. Don't jump to other peoples conclusions! Try it yourself! 1. the picture quality and ...

Pros: 8" screen, great sound and picture

Cons: The 'Y' jack that came with it for headphones doesn't work too well.

Review: I just gave this to my son for his birthday. Actually it's the D1812pkg (comes with case, 2 headphones and game controller at Sam's Club), but it's the same model, just with a bunch of extra accessories. I got this for the same price as the 7" ...

Pros: Good in bright light. Adequate sound. Displays external video input well.

Cons: Bag not easy in the vehicle. Battery didn't live long enough Having difficulty finding battery.

Review: We've had this for a year now (on 1/6/07) and it's kid friendly. Good video, good tracking over rough roads, good in bright or dark light. Displays X-box games well! The ONLY complaint we have is with the external battery pack. It deteriorated in ...

Pros: Decent picture, great volume, seemingly durable, doesn't skip, games an extra though not necessary.

Cons: Gets warm during operation, but they all may do that.

Review: This is the only personal dvd player that I have been extensively exposed to. Bought it for my mother-in-law to watch while receiving medical treatments. I compared it to others in the store and found the speaker sound superior and the screen size ...

Pros: Good internal speaker sound quality. Large 8" screen

Cons: Low resolution LCD screen. Cheesy accessories

The Bottom Line: This may disappoint you. But you will realize that $200 is a bargain for portable DVD and there is not anything better one at this price range.

Review: First of all, what I bought is D1812"PKG" model from Sam's club. It was $198 and the price was attractive for 8" model. Currently some 7" models are as low as $99 and but larger screen 8" models are not in bargain bin yet. The "PKG" models has ...

Pros: I cant think of any that I could not have gotten with another system.

Cons: Screen freezes up, gaming system failed, Audiovox will not stand by their product.

Review: I bought this for my son and 10 days after the warranty expired, 90 days he had problems. The gaming system no longer worked after the first time and the screen was freezing when movies were being played. I called Audiovox since I purchased the product ...

Pros: good sound, nice case, two headphones.

Cons: poor image quality, poor display of subtitles & letters.

Review: I had purchased a 7" Samsung and returned it 2 days later because saw this one for the same price and with lots more features other than just a bigger screen. However, I immediately noticed the difference in the image quality. The quality of the image ...

Pros: none

Cons: Many, DVD players just don't work.

The Bottom Line: I would not recommend purchasing this product because it is more than likely not going to work and if it does; it will not be for long.

Review: My mother working in the military in Bahrain purchased for me 2 of these dvd players for my daughter and son for Christmas. They never had the opportunity to really use them because family trips are reserved for the summer. They cut them on a few ...
