What's great about it: Great Picture
What's not so great: Disc started to skip and now doesnt work
Had this item for 6 months and out of no where the discs started to skip. I accidently didnt take out the insurance on it and now have to buy a new one. I used it majority of time in the car for my son to keep him occcupied and was very disappointed when it stopped functioning correctly. But the picture and everything was great.

What's great about it: Ease of use, Price, Ready to set up when opened
What's not so great: Battery life
I love this device! It is so easy to use and I use it everyday. I want to be in the movie production business and I love watching behind the scene footage. There is a catch though, my family doesn't. So I just use this dvd player in my room and find out all the secrets in making a movie. I would recommend this to anyone! The only downer is the fact that you only have about 4 hours of battery life before you need to charge up again, but I guess that is what patience is for! Hehehe
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Keeps the kids busy for hours!
What's not so great: Were switching our movies to bluray, so it doesn't play them.
My kids love it. It's easy for them to use themselves. My kid's are 4, 7, and 9. My 7 year old bought it with a gift certificate after christmas. He is very happy with it.

What's great about it: Look, screen size
What's not so great: No batter life
When I ordered this I should've checked to see if it had a battery. Well, it doesn't. So we cant move it from the car into the house without having to start the movie all over again. Other than that I have now complaints. It's sleek and lightweight, yet durable.

What's great about it: The Price, The screen size, The Quality of the Picture
What's not so great: The was a complete set up for television connection
I bought this for my mom for her birthday. I was so excited to give it to her that i decided to open it before her birthday and try it out and OMG it is great. It was already charged when i opened it which was a plus since i didnt have to fumble around with wires since i probably shouldnt have opened it and the picture on the screen was beautiful. The picture is crisp and clear and way better then i expected on a cheep dvd player. The screen is also pretty big for this type of dvd player. 9 inches for 80 bucks was a steal and i recommend it to anyone looking to buy a portable dvd player! The only thing i didnt like was that it didnt come with the set up to connect to a television. I had to buy that separate.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: It's cheap
What's not so great: It has a 90 warranty for a REASON
Perfect example of a disposable DVD player. I bought it in February, and it started going out the end of July. I bought it with a 1 year warranty, but in the mean time Dynex decrease the warranty to 90 days. Dynex does not back up their junky electronics and they are not based in the US. Fortunately my store is great, and they replaced it even when they were not responsible for doing so since I had the receipt.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Good picture, sound ok
What's not so great: Doesn't charge with Car Power Adapter
Purchase this unit yesterday, will be taking this back ASAP. Unit works great except as I was reading the manual I realized this unit doesn't charge while plugged into the care power adapter. We were buying this unit so my kids could watch movies while we are camping in a primitive campground. No where on the box does it say it only charges with the AC adapter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased it based upon the good "kid proof" reviews of the 7" and it has proved to live up to its reviews. I use it to play back exercise discs on a patio and it works great! The battery lasts longer than I expected, It takes an hour for a full charge... not a big deal at all.

What's great about it: Everything !
What's not so great: Nothing !
I was shocked to find that the battery was fully charge, and I was able to use it right away without having to wait. I guard a construction site at night and there is no power, so that was indeed a plus for me. This is my 4th Dynex purchase and I am please with them all so far.

What's great about it: good picture
What's not so great: recharge capabilities.
bought this to go on vacation and only used it once. When I tried to recharge the unit before reusing, the unit would not recharge. The recharge light would come on for a few minutes and then go off. I had to keep plugging and unplugging it. I ended up returning it after only one use. The picture was great and the sound was fair. I took it back to exchange for another brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Have owned mine for almost two years without any problems.
What's not so great: The speakers are a little weak.
I have taken mine on vacations and under "less than ideal conditions" the unit has perfomed without a single problem. The only thing I would change would be the speaker loudness capabilities as they are somewhat weak, other than that I would definitely recommend the purchase of this unit and would also buy this same brand again if mine should fail.
I would recommend this to a friend!
