A Big Disappointment -- And a Big Step Backwards from Panasonic

Hold this on your chest while in bed and you've got a widescreen movie experience. Put in earphones and no one else is bothered -- perfect for when you and your partner don't want to watch the same thing on the TV.

Great little player

I have really enjoyed this little jewel. I wanted it mainly to show digital photographs that I had put onto a dvd. I have been quite pleased. My three year old grandson loves it, he feels so grown up with the ear phones on watching his own little tv.

Panasonic Portable DVDLS80: One of the better DVD players on the go

 

Video Quality: With an 8.5” width screen it’s a very good size for viewing your DVDs. It’s neither too small nor too large (at least not in my eyes). Unlike a lot of portable DVD players that I’ve seen, the screen is not glossy. ...

Purchased this to use on the airplane but I am a bit disappointed. The battery life is marginal. I have to increase the speed of playback to watch an entire movie of around 2 hours. I decreased the brightness as suggested but then the picture is...
