Sylvania SDVD1256: 11.6-Inch Portable DVD Player with USB and SD Card Reader - Watch Movies on the Go! Review

large screen. easy to use. has no function to continue the game. So if you stop the movie before it's over, it won't remember where you left off. So you have to start over or FF to pick up where you left off. but overall very nice. I recommend this item.

Turns off immediately if left on "Pause" for a long time. I have to turn it off to restart because it freezes. The speakers are on the back and it's hard to hear them unless the volume is turned LOUD as the nice big bright screen doesn't leave room for the front speakers. Otherwise a good DVD player for a child.

This is the perfect DVD player for home, car or mobile to watch whatever you want. It took 8 hours to charge, but there are chargers in the box to make charging in the car or at home easy and hassle-free. Suitable for viewing on your lap or on a small table and can be used with a TV using the cables provided. Also

((_)) NO NO NO Hands off! It has worked fine a few times over the past few months, but today when I tried to play my son's DVD I found it stopped working. It turns on and starts to "load" and then the message "no disk" appears on the screen. I tried several DVDs but none of them would play. I bought this DVD player in May and received it on the 26th. I'm writing this review on August 8th, so it didn't even take 3 months. Very disappointed. ((_))

Picture quality could be a little better but to be honest it's not the HD or 4K that most TVs have. This is for mobile use, so picture quality is normal for a small device. I'm hoping that a future version will be more LCD or HD to make viewing a bit easier on the eyes. The remote could have been better labeled to emphasize the subtitles button and volume. The battery life is about 5 hours. The speaker is located on the back of the device, so the sound goes to the side and not towards the…

The actual item I received is significantly wider than the photos. See my uploaded photos. The "cover" portion (which contains the screen) of the item itself extends from both sides of the screen and contains tiny speakers that are neither loud nor powerful. On the physical device itself, there's no "menu" button to quickly jump to the disc's main menu (there's one on the remote). The DVD player doesn't remember the last playback position when I turn off the device, and I couldn't get around…

My brief review is based on a very brief experience with this DVD player. I've tried several portable DVD players over the years, including other Sylvania models. They all failed before they were 1 year old. The problems I had with all of them were: * Blocking when turning on the player when memory was on. * When switching on, no inserted DVD is recognized. * Hanging during playback. Based on the appearance of the settings screen, I can say with confidence that the internal organs of different…

For several years I've been watching a 30 minute DVD lecture on my laptop every evening. Unfortunately, the laptop has not been working for a few weeks. After much deliberation, I decided to buy a portable DVD player instead of looking for another laptop. When I first started looking for different models, I wasn't very impressed with the choices available. Although the Sylvania brand has been around for many years, I doubt it's the same company today as it was then. In any case, this model…
