Magnavox repair 
2007-05-15
The dvd player worked well for 1 hour. Then the picture failed totally. This is when the pain began. It took over a week to get a customer number to enable me to return the item Promised call backs never happened. Then I returned it and it has been more than 8 weeks. Last story was this model is no longer made and they are trying to decide what to replace it with. Again a promised call back never occured. The item still has not been replaced! I would stay away from magnavox / phillips at all costs.
I love my dvd player

I purchased this dvd player almost 2 months ago, and am very happy with my purchace.It has a great picture, good optics, good sound, but depending if there are loud noises, you may need headphones. I used my walkman headphones,and they worked just fine. I have a friend with a no name brand, and you can't basically hear it without external speakers, so this was a concern for me. The sound is suffient, at least for the size of the speakers. I can sit a good few feet away and hear it just fine. The charge lasts a really long time. Well, I never played it for more then 3 hours, but the charge still remained. Plus I always charge it up before I store it, and when I plugged the battery back on the machine after a month, it was still fully charged. It comes with a remote which is a nice feature as well. I felt it was a good choice for the money, I am happy with my purchase.
Magnavox DVD Player--UGH! 
2007-02-25
My husband bought me this DVD player for my birthday earlier this month. I fell in love with it. The screen is a great size, picture is crisp and clear, I had these awesome headphones that when plugged into this player made it sound as if I were in a movie theater.
I only give this 3 stars because it just gave out on me 2 weeks after I got it. I thought maybe it was the plug or battery or something but those weren't the issues at all. It was just that the player stopped working. I was extremely disappointed with this.
With a name brand like this I did expect a hell of a lot more than just two weeks of pure enjoyment. Maybe it was just my luck or something.
Buy Something Else, seriously

It didn't play and registered NO DISC with a brand new dvd installed. When I got one to work, it was fuzzy.
You have to put the volume at super duper high to even hear it.
it's pretty heavy, too. am going to return it.
Nice DVD player for the cost

The DVD's are very quite when played which was something I really wanted. I had purchased another player elsewhere and the sound of the dvd turning was so annoying I took it back. Great picture quality and sleek look as well. Well worth the price.
A good product.

Awesome Gift 
2007-01-15
If I had to name our best gift of 2006, I would have to say the portable DVD player. Our children take it everywhere. Our daughter even sets it up in the bathroom while she takes a bath! It works indoors, outdoors and in the car! This was a great buy!
NICE,but.

I got it and was VERY happy with it except it does not last very long with short battery life spam. You have to constantly chargling it when you are on the go...you get to see may be one movie and you are done. Is there anything else on the market that is as good design and quality as this, but last MUCH longer??
Simple to use and what a picture!

This is one of the easiest players to use. The screen picture quality is fantastic. About the only thing I think is a little short is the sound out of the speakers but the sound is fine through the headphones. I love it!!
I have no sound..wanna trade?

Someone else here has no picture...well I have no sound. Sound works out of the headphone jack but not from the built-in speakers. We've had it for about 9 months and it's always been kept in a case and rarely moved from the back seat of the car. It does get VERY hot and you need to be careful not to just shut the movie off and close the top as it's really NOT OFF. It has no auto-shut off so very early on I discovered it would continue to spin away until you actually turn the physical switch off unlike a notebook computer etc. Also the controls are terrible in layout and design. Even the volume switch is reverse of the intuitive motion. When sitting in front of the unit you would think upwards is louder...not according to Magnavox designers! No up is down and down is up. Outstanding!
