"My New iPod" 2010-03-16

I was skeptical about buying an iPod but now I don't know how I went so long without one. This iPod fits into my deejay system and minimizes the need to carry so many CD's. Thank you again!

"Muito bom IPOD" 2010-03-16
By Thiago S. Arakaki (Rio de Janeiro, RJ Brazil)
Tenho este IPOD deste de 2005 e ainda o uso, ainda está bom e funcionando perfeitamente. Gosto muito dele, tenho uns 25 GB de música, o que dá quase que infinitas horas de música e a bateria dura bastante, dá para usar mais de um dia sem a necessidade de regarregá-lo (claro que não usando um dia inteiro).

"Great iPod" 2010-02-21
By happydaisy
I bought this iPod almost 4 years ago in June of 06 after I graduated high school. I have had this thing for a long while and in that time I have pretty much done everything to it. I've dropped it probably a hundred times, gotten it wet, and inadvertently thrown it across the room. Needless to say, it's still working great! I think 30gbs for me is just about the perfect capacity because I have had it this long and still haven't filled it up. The only down side is the battery, which lasts for a good 4-6 hrs (depending on how much I am scrolling around with the backlight on) when playing just music. For videos it lasts only about an hour and a half at best, which is my only problem with it. I like to use the ipod on long trips (which usually last for maybe 8-10 hours) and it's usually pretty good if I have it charged ahead of time unless I want to watch a video. Anyway, I love this iPod! Of course if you are looking to buy a new iPod I would go with the new iPod classic or the touch or nano depending on your needs. I'm currently thinking about possibly buying a new iPod, but am not sure about which to get. I would love to get the touch simply because it has internet capabilities, but I love that the new nano has an fm radio. I may just wait to see if the touch gets radio in the upcoming year or two because I know my current iPod will last for a long time.

"real real good!" 2010-02-10
By Harshad Deo (Beaverton, USA)
I had bought this way back in 2005 and was extremely pleased by it! Apple as such needs no introduction and this product did not fail to impress either. I guess it would have been useful even now hadn't it been stolen. With the iPhone now though, it tends towards redundancy...

"Sometimes You Just Want More" 2010-01-23
By Ronald Hammond (Key West, FL USA)
Okay, so you're thinking of buying an iPod. You've seen the iPod Touch and you've been blown away. Who wouldn't be? It's a great little gizmo. You can do a lot with it, surf the web, play Tetris, learn Japanese, do e-mail, play music and so much more, but if you're like me and have more music than you can shake a stick and you want to carry it with you wherever you go, then the iPod Touch just might not cut the mustard, storage wise.

If it's just music or videos you want an iPod for. Or if you have an iPhone and you need a second device to carry around your music, then I'd heartedly recommend a 5th Gen iPod. Read on and see why.

I was cruising Amazon, checking out small hard drives, as I wanted to carry all my music around with me. I somehow wound up the page for the Apricorn Bio Hard Drive, a beautiful little beauty, to be sure, but I don't really need to protect my music from prying eyes, or ears for that matter. However, I clicked on over to their website and I found something much better than an external drive. I found their upgrade kit for the 5th Generation iPods and I knew it was exactly what I was looking for.

If you've got either the 5th Generation 30GB, the 60GB or the 80GB you are in luck, because not only do you have one great machine, but you can make it outstanding. Apple's current iPod Classic carries 160GB of storage, with the upgrade from Apricorn you can turn your 5th Gen 30GB iPod into a 120GB beauty and Apricorn throws in a new 580mAH battery with the hard drive along with all the direction and the tools you'll need to do the job yourself. Yeah, you don't have to send your machine to Apple to replace that battery. It's not that hard.

But what if you've got a 5th Gen 60 or 80GB iPod. Well for over half a C note less than what a new iPod Classic costs, you can upgrade the iPod you have with 240GB of storage, yeah, 240 gigs, that's a lot of music. And you get a new battery with this upgrade, too. So, how hard is the upgrade to do. It took me twenty minutes, it's easier than you'd think. Once finished, hook the iPod up to you're computer and let iTunes do it's magic and you're good to go.

The 5th Gen iPod is a solid music player even without upgrading. It's easy enough to sink it with iTunes and change the music on it. I wouldn't hesitate recommending it to anyone, but if you want more, well you can have it.

"Just what the doctor ordered!" 2010-02-03
By William Mumford (Michigan, USA)
The AXION AXN-6091 9-inch Widescreen LCD Portable DVD Player has been a very valuable addition to our viewing pleasure. We can watch a movie or an educational DVD without using the TV and the connected DVD player. When charged, it is possible to watch with no power attachment. My wife watched her favorite art instruction disc, starting at the breakfast table, moving to her comfortable recliner for more. She even used it while she was resting in bed.
The power plug is set up by her recliner, so the unit can be recharged while she watches her art classes. She had thought she would like such a portable DVD player. After she used it for a while, she wouldn't give it up!

"Works well for what I wanted" 2010-01-30
By J. Anderson (Halsey, OR USA)
This product works well for what I wanted -- a replacement portable DVD player for my toddler because the amplifier in the GPX player I purchased on clearance at Sears went out. I wanted a player that wasn't going to be so inexpensively built as to be cheap, but I didn't need the super-delux-ultra-everything model. I don't have a lot of money to be throwing around, especially on fancy electronic gadgets for a child. This player has most of the controls on the player, which is nice. The other player (that broke) required that you used the remote for anything other than playing or adjusting volume. It was so small that I was terrified of losing it and not being able to navigate the menus on some of the DVDs. I don't like the sound quality as much on this unit, but my son isn't complaining so it works fine. I also like the 9-inch screen better than the 7-inch screen we had before. Sometimes this unit doesn't want to play a DVD with a complex menu right away, but we just try again or pick a different movie.

"Axion Portable DVD Player" 2010-01-07
By Mom (Seattle, WA USA)
Fast shipping. This was a good product for the sale price at Christmas time. There was a little wabble where the screen attaches to the actual player that didn't feel sturdy. I'd recommend this for older kids for sure though. We took it on a road trip a few days after Christmas. my 10yr. old dropped it from her lap to the floor of the van and it no longer worked. I know it was our fault for dropping it, but we have 8 kids, so we have a couple of other portables that have been dropped a few times and still work great.

Amazon.com Product Description

Now view your favorite DVDs wherever you are with this new lightweight attractive entry into the Samsung product family.
Samsung's widescreen, 16:9 aspect-ratio DVD-L300 DVD player packs a stunning 10-inch, progressive-scan TFT LCD screen into a chassis standing just over an inch high when folded. Enjoy the best of your movies and music through the player's multi-format playback abilities, including MP3 CDs, as well as standard DVD-Videos and commercial CDs.

Progressive scanning creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The DVD-L300's rugged disc bay ensures that the show goes on no matter how you position the player. Once loaded, discs are locked in position, and the unit's special disc mechanism operates flawlessly from almost every angle.

A screen-inversion control flips the picture 180 degrees so you can mount it upside down, as in the back seat of a car or mini van. Smart Screen brightness control monitors ambient lighting conditions and adjusts the LCD's backlight accordingly, improving clarity and contrast while extending battery life.

Two .125-inch headphone jacks--enhanced by Spatializer virtual surround--accommodate a viewing partner and offer big sound to go with the DVD-L300's big screen. Motion zoom allows extreme magnification of selected screen areas, without distortion, even as the movie is playing.

S-video outputs let you hook the player up with your home television, while its coaxial digital-audio output will channel discrete, 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound to a range of audio/video receivers and surround speaker setups. An S-video and minijack stereo analog audio input grant hookup options for camcorders, VCRs, game consoles, and other devices.

What's in the Box
DVD player, battery pack (affixes to back of player), AC adapter, power cord, 29-button credit-card remote control, S-video interconnect, stereo analog audio interconnect, player carrying sleeve, user's manual, and warranty info.

"Best Unit I have used" 2009-06-23
By Mather M. Tutton (Orlando, FL USA)
I have had several portable DVD players, I always opted for the cheapest and got what I paid for. This unit has excellent sound, great battery life at least 6 hours, resolution is very good and you can set the screen for wide screen or square format. Also works very well plugged into the TV to show videos and has a full function remote control. Most of the time it is used I'm in a place that I can plug into the wall or use a 12V power plug. I highly recommend this unit.

"Excellent Player" 2008-12-14
By M. Grossi
This is a nice DVD player. I have owned a few in the past. This one has a large screen with high quality picture. The battery life is sufficient. The player even tells you how much battery life is left when you turn it on. Unlike some other simpler models, this one has many picture options as well. Great buy!

"poor display" 2007-05-09
By J. Cartwright (Girard, OH USA)
This is an expensive (comparatively) DVD player and the large display would have been great - if you could see it. The picture is so dark that you spend the whole time tilting the whole thing this way and that to try to get the best angle for viewing. Many scenes are just not watchable.

"Broke Twice in Two Years" 2006-07-05
By Grey Todd (San Francisco, CA)
When it worked, it was great.

When it worked.

First, like in other reviews, one day it just died. Luckily, it was under warranty and Samsung did fix it. They said the motherboard got fried, but all I did was charge it...?

Then, over the past few months, the screen started to get dimmer and dimmer, so that I can't watch any dark scenes at all in a normally-lit room. Trying to watch Sin City was like listening to a radio show with occasional white flashes on the screen.

Finally, tonight, the thing just died again. Since it isn't covered by the warranty anymore, this time it goes in the trash.

By Jason M. Dunham
I too bought mine a year and three months ago. It was working great and then all of sudden stoped working and will not turn on or charge. I bought this refurbished agreed to pay extra for a extended four year warranty but will see what comes of that. My suggestion is buy the longest warranty possible for any of these portable dvd players as i have heard of problems with many different brands.

"It's alright." 2010-03-07
By J. Stewart (California)
I have had this dvd player for a few weeks now. I like the screen feature where you can adjust it closer to you and tilt it for easier viewing. I don't like that there is no remote. This is my third portable DVD player. My first lasted me a very long time even after the abuse I put it through. My second, an audiovox, lasted less than a year. I had high hopes for this dvd player. The picture quality on the LS855 is good and the 8.5" screen is a great size for a portbale player. I'm not crazy about the controls on the this machine. I'm used to the volume control being a small dial on the side next to where the headphones go into the player. On this player the volume control is two small buttons on the top of the player and they are hard to find. At night I like to close the screen and just listen to a movie while I fall asleep, I can't control the volume when I do this. The volume buttons are also hard to find because they are small and blend in. Also, the play and stop buttons also function as the on and off buttons instead of having a seperate on/off switch which I find rather annoying. Overall it is a decent dvd player but I'm not as happy with it as I hoped.

"Decent player if you don't care about the picture" 2010-01-21
By Nicholas Grey (Concord, CA)
To make a long story short, my 2 year old broke our LG portable dvd player which was purchased back in 2006. I went to Costco and bought this Panasonic model with confidence as I am a big fan of Panasonic products. Well, upon popping in a dvd I found that the resolution on this player is much lower than my 3 year old LG model.(and the Panny cost $30 more) I love all the features, car seat mount, car charger, long lasting battery, tilt screen, etc. (note screen does not swivel left to right, you can only adjust the tilt/vertical viewing angle) Unfortunately, I'm so disappointed with the picture quality that I will be returning it ASAP.

"Poor durability" 2009-11-02
By Tom HIller (Philly. PA)
In 2008, we bought a LS855 for our special needs grandson to use on long auto trips. I worked fine for at least the initial trip but when we tried to use it later in the year (just post warranty expiration) it took a veery long time to read any disc we tried and ended up giving us a message of "This type of disc cannot be played. Please insert a different disc" despite the fact that we were inserting discs already played. A local repair shop, recommended by the Panasonic web stie, indicate that the repair would cost around $200 - more than the unit costs new. So much for the vaunted Panasonic durability

"6hrs and 45 mins of battery! Big screen, headrest attachment for back seat" 2009-08-18
By myhale
This panasonic is my second portable DVD player, the first being a Mintek which I think I paid around $400 for about 6 or 7 years ago. I used it a lot for car trips and plane rides and dropped it a while back so it's got a broken connection part but it still works. I wanted something with a headrest mount for kids in the back seat and longer battery life then 2 hours.
These things have come a long way! I paid $150 for the LS855 and it's got a 1.5inch bigger screen. The picture quality is infinitely better on the Panasonic. The sound is louder and better in quality. The battery pack on the Mintek was as big as the base of the unit itself while the battery pack on the Panasonic is like the size of a big cigar. The Mintek wouldn't fast forward without the remote...which I found irritating since I didn't want to carry the remote with me. I read from a review that someone couldn't get the Panasonic to fast forward. You hold down the fast foward to toggle and select a fast forward speed and then hit play to stop the ff.
There's a chart in the manual that says you should get 6 hours at lowest brightness using a headphones. I tested this and got 6 hours and 45 minutes. Wow! It was a little dim but definitely visible.
I liked the Sonys too but a similar model in specs has no headrest attachment and was more expensive. The headrest attachment is simple to use and the adjustable screen makes the unit streamlined so your child can't hit it by accident.
The one drawback is that the plastic on the unit is definitely lighter weight and thinner...seems a bit flimsy. But that contributes to it's portability. Happy viewing. :)

We were in the process of moving so there were a lot of trips back and forth from the old house to the new house. The DVD player and 2nd screen worked fine for about a month or two. Then the 2nd screen stopped working - no picture, only sound. I would not recommend this product to anyone nor will I buy another Phillips brand product. I have had nothing but problems with the Phillips brand products that I have purchased. Best bet is to buy two portable DVD players. I have had good luck with Audiovox.

"Just my luck" 2010-03-28
By Ellie (nj)
The one I got must be a lemon, or it's a piece of junk and the reviews are all made up! I've had mine for 4 months, used it maybe once every 2 weeks for several hours for listening to downloaded music. Last night, it DIED. The screen is black, the blue ring is brightly lit, but I am unable to DO anything with it. The on/off/home button doesn't do anything. I researched long and hard, read all the reviews and made an informed decision. Since I knew what my intentions were for this item, I opted to go with something more cost effective.
I should have just gone with my other option.....

Also it's a tad on the heavy side, too much so for my neck, so I also have it in a pouch, alleviating some of the weight by pining it to my clothing.

The third disappointment, is that, the full instructions booklet was not included, but rather customers are told to download it themselves via the net. Really? ^%&#@!!!!

What I do like about it is the Audiobook function ... which I just happened upon. Although I would like to turn the bass down, and there very well may be a way to do just that! I won't know until .... I GO AND DOWNLOAD THE INSTRUCTIONS MYSELF!

For all I know there may be "bookmarks" as well ... ???

But what I have deciphered has been relatively easy, and the sound is excellent. Especially for bass lovers ( which I am not one ). As for the color ... I ordered a clear protective case and that will soon be covered in something pretty, perhaps rhinestones.

Still ... HONESTY in advertising would be appreciated ....

"Best Bang for the Buck!!" 2010-03-17

I did alot of research and this little gem is the best mp3 player for the money I could find. It is simple and the screen is large enough that I can even read it without my cheaters.
The included software Rhapsody looks sort of like itunes. I like my windows media player for syncing to the player.
Audiobooks is my gig. The sould is great. The 8gb is hard to fill.
Great Product!!

"Great When it works, not When it doesn't" 2010-03-16

The Sansa fuze is an all around great mp3 player. It's VERY small, has easy to use browsing, and works awsome. I used mine for 2 years without a probelem, then something happened.

I pulled it out of my pocket next to my computer and attempted to turn it on-it didn't work. There is usually a reset button if the screen turns off or it freezes, but mine was dead. I called customer support and tried the resets, talked the the support agent who was helpful, and it was not working. It only has a 1 year customer warranty.

The main point is, watch out. It may randomly break, even though it works well for a while.

"The product is good in all aspects except one." 2010-03-13

I like the product although I only owned it for a day. The recording functionality is awesome, the display is cool, every thing is good about it otherwise but one flaw for me made me return it. This is just a suggestion if you are thinking about buying one. If you are like me all the time on the move, skiing or jugging and you think about putting this player in your packet, every time it moves around will turn the screen on b/c the wheel is so easy to turn. Locking the device doesn't run of this function. This drains the batter much faster then needed, and increases the run on duty cycles.
