Sony 8" Portable DVD Player, Model DVPFX810

Watch a regular full-length movie with its up to 5-1/2 hour battery capacity1 or plug in the supplied car adapter for extended viewing. Control buttons are located on the screen bezel for ease of use. Skip or fast forward a scene is so easy to do either with the control buttons or with the dual-sensor remote control.

We had to replace two Audiovox DVD players that the kids trashed (within 6 months). For the cost per unit, the Sony DVD players have performed magnificently. I am very impressed with the quality of the players, as most people would expect from Sony. The big test was our recent plane trip to San Diego, the battery life was way above average at 5+ hours per charge. While on vacation we set one of the players up on the kitchen table and the four cousins easily watched cartoons on the 8in screen and the volume from the small internal speakers was just adequate for the audience.

The power cords for the car are a bit short so I recommend getting a cord extender. I have to use an extension cord and a splitter so I only take up one power plug in the car for both players. The players have not skipped under any driving or playing conditions. My kids are rough on toys, these players already have scratches, one has been dropped and they are still working fine. These seem to be durable products.

The batteries are thin and fit flush and snuggly under the base of the units, unlike the bulky Audiovox batteries. The players can support two headphones with minimal loss of volume. The remote is excellent and the best way to control the player.

One small problem that I have with the Sony DVD players is that they have really small button controls on the unit. They are difficult to see in low light situations.

The Sony players do not come with headphones and I highly recommend "noise canceling" headphones for any airplane trip.

Having owned two different brand DVD players in the past, I would recommend the Sony DVD players to anyone.

Picture quality could be better does not have a good viewing from all sides, screen turns into a negative type picture. Sound quality fine for home or office use only, beyond that sound quality poor as for most portable DVD players. however, Stil a solid unit, probly one of the best bilt units on the market, screen protection nice even with glare problem. Dark seens may be hard to see. P.S. Sony please make one with Blue Ray tec. and rubber coat the case everything else is perfect.

    Comments about Sony 8" Portable DVD Player In Black:

    The only thing I didn't like was the fact you have to charge the battery for the amount of time it lasts. I wish it was a longer battery span than five hours. Other than that the product is great.

    Service and delivery comments:

    Everything was very smooth and the products were well protected during shipping.

      Sony truly is the BEST! Me and my dad bought this product not to long ago and have'nt had any problems yet. We use it mostly in the car and were concerned the sound was to low. We hooked it up to a thing we had that transmitted the sound from the player to the car sterioand it was AWESOME! Great sound! It definatly is an A+ product in my family!

          Comments about Sony 8" Portable DVD Player In Black:

          I purchased this in April for my son to take on our family vacation in July. He hasn't put it down in our house so I'm guessing it's durable as he is not particularly delicate with his things. It seems to be very user-friendly and a GREAT value for the money. I especially like the 180 degree rotation which allows a full recline of the screen to adapt to the back of a car's headrest while keeping the control buttons exposed. Sound could be slightly louder although if it was, I might be writing "sound could be slightly softer" :)

            Comments about Sony 8" Portable DVD Player In Black:

            Read the reviews on this. The concerns for the glare screen are way overstated. We purchased for a trip to Florida. Used it extensively on the plane, as well as driving along the interstate during the day and at night. Kids loved the big screen, swivel capability, and how it can sit up or fold down to sit in their lap.

            The battery life was an added bonus, as we ran it continuously over almost 5 hours and it still didn't run out.

            Very happy with the purchase, almost need to buy another so the kids don't fight over it.

              Bought for an active 3 year old with lots of movies to watch. Saves when visiting in others' homes so not to have to use their equipment, etc. Used for about one month. So far so good. Only concern was one episode of player not shutting off or responding but discovered battery was also low, and haven't had it long enough to know whether this was an isolated incident.

              This portable DVD player is great my kids love it.
              It has been wonderful. My kids have enjoyed it soo much. Has been wonderful for road trips. The only thing i don't like about it is that it is way to heavy for my kids to hold. It is pretty bulky.
