Panasonic DVD-LS86 review: Panasonic DVD-LS86

 

Panasonic DVD-LS86

Portable DVD player with 8.5-inch collapsible screen; excellent digital file support includes DivX, MPEG4, MP3, WMA, JPEG compatibility; long-life battery; includes AV connectivity wires and car charger.

Battery life, while quite long, is still shorter than advertised; screen hides buttons when folded to tablet position; unintuitive control layout; no remote control; average picture quality; no USB port or flash card reader.

The Panasonic DVD-LS86 delivers some of the longest battery life we've seen in a portable DVD player--though not quite as long as Panasonic claims.

Best portable DVD player

 

The Panasonic DVD-LS86 blows other portable DVD players out of the water when it comes to battery life. While most can only muster two or three hours, the Panasonic lasts up to nine hours between charges in one professional test. Reviewers say this is...

Excellent battery life, divX compatibility, foldable screen

No remote control or SD card slot, buttons obstructed when screen is folded down

Great Player

 

wish it had a tv tuner but you can't have everything.

Plays everything I throw at it. I burn 3 or 4 Divx movies to a dvd and it will play them, no problem. Battery life is great, not the full 13 hours but more than enough to get you through 4 movies. If you turn the unit off in the middle of a movie it...

video out quit working so I hooking it up to a tv is not an option anymore. but I have beat this thing to death in my car for a few years, not to mention the trips its been on with the kids doing their best to destroy it

Panasonic DVD-LS86 8.5" Portable DVD Player

 

We love it! Everything is so solid feeling and feels finely made. New egg does it again! Best price, Best products, I always shop here first.

Great solid build, smooth operating buttons, just a very strong unit. Video is good, sound is good. I love the fact that the owners manual is easy to read and JUST in english. Very user friendly unit. Battery life is great

There is a cost for all that battery life. I think the unit is a little too heavy, extra large battery and the tilt mechanism are an added weight and size

Great little unit!

 

Picture quality is not exactly what I expected but for the size and $ I cannot even knock and egg off for it.

Great battery life, worth the extra few $, IMO. No issues playing store bought DVD's

none

Super long battery life. Has been very reliable. Solidly built. Easy controls

Picture isn't super awesome, but works fine for a 9" screen

Good player

 

Cheap player. Works really well. I had no issues using this player and the image quality is reasonable. I have had this for 2 months and we use this regularly when traveling with my kids

Video image quality could be better

Exactly as Advertised

 

I bought those super thin plastic (colored) CD holders, and put my DVD movies in them. That way, I can take quite a few movies without taking up a lot of space in the DVD bag.

I've never had a portable player so have no preconceived notions about the product. I bought this DVD player after previewing all units on display at Best Buy. I liked the 13 hour battery idea - and haven't been able to run it long enough (before I get...

None so far - I like it. But, I have Power DVD on my computer to watch movies, and one really nice feature it provides is a window that asks if you want to start at the beginning or at the last place you were viewing. That's handy when I want to pick...

HOW ON EARTH IS THERE NO REMOTE

 

JUST NOT FOR ME ... I will prob go with the new SONY dvp-fx820... really the same battery life and better design, features and pic quality; oh ya a fantastic remote .. As allways new egg came through w/ a perfect deal but it is all about the product..

Well here I go again with a purchase of a DVD player for traveling.. SAME OLD STUFF. The sound on the plane is not good at all and it is very misleading about the 13 hour life of the battery. You will need to watch your movie on the DARKEST MODE to...

NO REMOTE and very misleading about the battery life. You need to use the ver darkest setting to get the longer battery life.
