Panasonic DMP-B15

By Chad Sapieha (digitaltrends.com)

Can double as a player for your home entertainment system ; LAN connectivity enables firmware updates ; BD-LIVE content ; Web video via Viera Cast

Expensive ; bulky and heavy ; swapping discs while the device is mounted to a headrest is a hassle

Panasonic DMP-B15

By Alex Jennings (cnet.co.uk)

Watching Blu-ray movies on an 8.9-inch screen is a seemingly ridiculous proposition, but the DMP-B15 won us over in the end. As well as delivering the best pictures we've ever seen on a portable device, it also functions as an excellent living-room ...

Clever design ; surprisingly crisp pictures ; works really well with a TV ; surprising amount of multimedia features ; comes with a car charger

Rather flimsy build quality ; chunky ; screen isn&apos ; t really HD ; no Wi-Fi ; battery life is only just good enough ; screen&apos ; s viewing angle is rather limited ; slow to boot up

Although the idea of a portable Blu-ray player with an 8.9-inch screen sounds daft, the quality of the Panasonic DMP-B15's screen, together with the fact that it also works really well with a telly, has won us over

Panasonic DMP-B15 portable Blu-ray player

By Jamie Carter (pocket-lint.com)

Blu-ray for your backpack

BD Live, Viera Cast, DivX playback from disc, SD Card slot

Slow to load, slightly impractical design, pricey

This is a great Blu-ray player, period. If nothing else it will save space on your home entertainment rack but makes Blu-ray a play-anywhere possibility
