Great Portable DVD Player for the money
By Mediahound
I have the newer SD-P1850 model which is very similar if not identical to this one. I can recommend this DVD player after doing a lot of research and also trying out a few others. My opinion is that the 3 best brands of portable DVD players are Toshiba, Phillips and Sony.But I eliminated Sony because Sony is more expensive and does not include a fast forward button built in. In order to fast forward on the Sony models, you have to use the remote control which is sort of a dumb design.While Phillips brand has better LCD video quality than Toshiba, and seems better built, the Toshiba has much more functionality. I chose Toshiba because:-it has AV in (as well as out) so you can plug in a digital camera to display your photos or a video game system to play games. Phillips does not.-the battery connects to the back and still allows you to set the player down flat on a table. The Phillips, oddly, makes the player rest at an angle when you attach the battery.-Battery life. Toshiba is rated 4 hours, Phillips is rated 2.5 hours.-Resume function: if you stop a movie, you can resume where you left off. The Phillips lacks this basic and useful function.The Toshiba seems solidly designed and came very well packaged. It can read homemade DVD-Rs too, which not all players can do (Phillips can). For the 8" size of the screen, it seems nice and compact unlike the equivalent Phillips, which seems a lot bulkier.I would recommend this player, it seems to have all the features I want, yet is compact and seems sturdy.

A well-rounded player that performs nicely
By D. Bjorgen
I purchased this player as an upgrade to a 6.5" generic Shinsonic player that had faithfully served me for 2 years. Upon receipt of the player, I discovered that the two players were extremely similar, from button placement, hardware design, built-in firmware, and even on-screen display logos.The player works well. Its disc load times seem to be on average with other players. The player is a bit noisy upon loading, but seems to calm down a bit once the movie gets started, which seems to be an issue that plagues most players. The sound quality of the player is good, and the presence of dual headphone jacks make it ideal for young siblings who like to watch simultaneously. Video quality is sharp, but Caucasian skin tones are far too pink. There are times when the strange skin hues aren't very noticeable; other times, it is downright annoying.The hardware works well under movement. Movie playback in a car or on the go is very stable. I did have one instance where several discs consecutively failed to load. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the laser mechanism had somehow become jammed into the housing. A careful tug loosened the mechanism and the player has worked fine ever since.Overall, the player is of good quality build and performs its task well. My only mark against it is the strange hue of Caucasian flesh tones.

By J. Bucich
We just returned from Disney, having flown 2.5 hours each way with a 3 yr old and a 6 yr old. The portable DVD was a life-saver, particularly for my little one. Not only is the picture incredible, the battery held its charge for at least 4 hours! Our Panasonic doesn't come close to the quality of this unit! A must have - easy to use as well.
