I find this item worth the cost it has. the required headphone car charge etc are included in the boxthe delivery was quicker and safe, and I found the items in the brand new shape. Since the screen is small the visual is not very impressive. the sound quality and the volume is good in headphones but speakers are not enough audible (I hear other wise OK :)).The item otherwise is handy, it was delivered in good packing, it has a remote which is handy too. it was ready to use.I am satisfied with the qualitly of the product and its good in range of its cost. Go ahead with it.
The reviews below are exactly the same problems I experienced with my player: the sound quality goes out completely, so unless you plug in earphones or speaker there is no sound, it skips on disc play (even with new discs), freezes, or says "Wrong Disc." Usually it makes such a loud whirring noise I worry that the motor will bust. I'm surprised it still plays at all. Don't bother with this model.
The resolution is horrible and it felt cheap in generally. Like fools, we did it. We bought this DVD player for our kids to watch during long vehicle trips. The DVD player simply wouldn't turn on or respond (we tried both the AC power and the car adapter). It took slightly over 2 months to receive the replacement, which is unacceptable in my book. However, as it was for the kids and would be used fairly infrequently, I really didn't care. After jumping through hoops, they said they would replace if we sent the item in to a warehouse in NYC along with an $18 money order to cover shipping.
I know this device is cheap, but you get what you pay for sometimes. When we first got it, I wasn't impressed. That was 2 months ago and we haven't received a replacement or any correspondence to indicate that Coby received the defective unit (which we know that they did, thanks to a shipment confirmation). After about 2 months though, we tried to turn it on, and we started to smell the smell of electronics burning. We called Coby's technical support line. I'll never purchase another "Coby" device again.UPDATE: We finally received the replacement unit. I'll be looking elsewhere when/if I ever need another portable DVD player.
We bought this for a Christmas gift and have used it sporadically only for car trips less than a 100-150 mile radius. The sound recently went out completely. It slowly began losing volume with movies & we thought it might be a particular movie so we would switch to something else. It got so bad the kids could only use the earphones. Even with earphones you can't hear the movie which is shame b/c the screen looks great. Since they only give you a 30 day return policy.this is money down the drain.Take your chances if you dare.
I bought this player to keep my 3 yr. It held a charge for 3+ hours. old daughter entertained while flying. I am impressed with the picture quality, sound and usability. We have only had it a week, but came in very handy on our vacation. Based on my experience thus far, I would recommend this product.
