Sony DVP-FX750 7-Inch Portable DVD Player, Black (2010 Model)

This is my second Sony portable DVD player. The first was a 9 inch screen. It was just as great as this one. It still works after 9 years. I only got this one, as I gave the first one to my son for my grandson to use. Not only do I use this one when grandkids come to the house, but I use it all the time at home if I want to sit in the same room with my husband while he watches tv I put earphones to it and can listen to music or watch a different movie. It is also light weight enough to carry on the plane. The battery on this one actually lasts longer than the first one. I haven't tried it for 3 hours straight yet, as it is supposed to last through, but I did set it up in the vehicle for a 2 hour trip for my grandson to watch and it lasted that long and was still going when we stopped. It opens up and sets nicely on the console. When I first got it, I thought it wasn't working, but come to find out, the hold button was on (it is close to the power button on bottom right side) so it wouldn't play. When I turned the hold button off, it was fine. I am very pleased with this and am looking forward to many more hours of pleasure.

This is a fantastic dvd player. It's almost as if we have a 2-in-1 player- a great dvd player for our tv that also goes in the car! I bought this specifically because our other portable player died and we needed a new one for long car/plane trips. After getting burned with a cheap RCA model at a local store, I chose this one for its long battery life, two headphone jacks, remote control, and great brand name. After using it, I was so excited to see it has a matte screen, so the sun doesn't affect the viewing ability, and it remembers where you are on the dvd, even *after* you remove it and have played other discs! It is nice and heavy for a portable player, so I don't feel as if it will snap in two if it falls on the floor of the car. It also doesn't make a "running" noise when playing- the other cheap player we have is very loud until the disc stops spinning. The flip lid is not flimsy and the buttons are simple to use. We needed a new home player too, but decided to use this one instead. Unlike other players, the screen will go black when you plug it into the tv- no more having to turn the player around so you aren't watching the same show on two screens. I'm very happy with this player.

The Sony DVP-FX750 portable DVD player stopped working within 60 days of purchase. It simply stopped playing DVDs. As a side note, I purchased the Square Trade extended warranty, and this proved to be absolutely useless. I paid them to protect my product, and they told me to contact Sony. I spent 20 minutes on the phone with Sony. The end result is that I am out of pocket $15 to ship the DVD player back to Sony. (Sony would not cover this cost.) I'm also out the money that I paid to Square Trade. It's ridiculous.

i am at a loss as to how many stars to check off.....! unfortunately i had to return this to amazon as it did not function properly out of the box. the screen only displayed a 5 inch image with a black bar on each side... sony customer service was great, called them late in the evening and they worked with me till 11:15 pm trying to resolve the problem, however they could not resolve the problem and told me to send it to them for repair.... i dont like keeping something that was delivered to my door 16 hours earlier and does not function properly out of the box, so i chose to return it to amazon... that being said, the picture quality on this unit is outstanding, could use a tad bit more volume but it is adequate, and like i said, sony tech support is awesome. so even though i did not keep this unit, i thought this post would help someone else who might have questions about the video, it is super sharp....also the unit is extremely easy to use, no rocket science here....if any questions, call tech support who are very pleasant and helpful......

Although I have a built-in DVD player in my SUV, I have four kids who don't necessarily want to watch the same movie. So, my solution was to also buy a couple of these portable players. This has worked out great for us. I bought the Sony version instead of some cheaper other versions because I was scared away by some of the reviews from these other products that they broke quickly. Our Sony versions have worked fine for a couple years now. They are rather thick and hefty, which seems to make them more durable. Plus, Sony has a good reputation. Some other things I like about this product is that you can either run it through plugging it into an outlet within your car (the old "cigarette lighter") or you can just run it without being plugged in. It has an internal battery that lasts for probably a couple of movies before you need to plug it in to recharge. You can still watch movies while it is charging. There are also two slots for headphones, so two kids can plug into one portable DVD player at once. It also comes with a power source that you can plug into an electrical outlet in your house. I also bought some cheap headphones for these, that worked just fine. Overall, these have worked great for us. I'm sure there are probably some more technologically advanced portable DVD players, but this one is reasonably priced, durable, and good for the kids on a trip.

I bought 3 of these players, one of reach of my 3 daughters for a long road trip. Years ago I bought one of those dual screen car dvd players that you can have a single dvd play on both screens. I forget the brand, but it was a well known common brand. It started acting up within 6 months, stopped playing dvds after a year. Plus, it just felt cheap. For the next road trip I decided on a different strategy and purchased 3 of these which came to about the same price as some of those dual screen players. We're 2 years in and not a single problem with any of them! We've gone on several road trips and they've stood up very well through minor drops, bumps, etc. Features I love: - Dual headset outputs. If 2 of my kids want to watch the same dvd, I just have them sit next to each other and they have no issues. Plus I bought child headsets so I don't have to listen to Disney princess movies the whole ride! - Power! It comes with an A/C adapter for the car AND a standard wall plug AND it holds a charge of about 4 hours or so (I've never really tested it, but they can usually get through 2 movies at least). I usually charge them all up the night before a trip, then let them watch in the car and plug at least one up in the van while we're driving (depending on who sits in a seat close to the power plug). Then if one runs out of juice, I just swap them. Basically I've never had issues where they're all dead at the same time. Power just isn't a issue for us with these players. - Fairly simple controls, even for kids. Only my 4 year old still needs some help, my other 2, ages 5 and 6, do not. - Loud volume. If they don't want to use the headsets for whatever reason, they can watch without them even in a not-so-quiet car and they can hear fine. Of course, with 3 kids, we can't have all 3 listening to them without headsets at the same time, but it's nice as an option and has come in handy when one child is sick of the headphones. - Durability! They have held up fairly well and they just feel durable and solid. I'm pretty sure they can take a fair amount of abuse. - Bright screen I know you can get players with larger screens, but I don't see how younger children would care. My 3 kids have never complained about it. I could see potentially older children wanting larger a larger screen, but my kids just want their movie!

We purchased this as a travel DVD player for my 3 year old son. We bring it everywhere because we have long commutes and he's with us. It gets thrown into backpacks, into the car, man-handled by a 3 year old, and still plays perfectly fine. We've had ours for over a year now. The battery can last for several hours after a full charge. We probably charge it every other day, with daily use. It also comes with a car charger. Just a note - if you are using the DVD player while it is plugged in, it will not charge. It will only charge if the DVD player is off. Otherwise, it's easy to use, and for the size of the DVD player, the sound and picture quality are both appropriate. Great little DVD player for what we need it for.

Didn't want to watch movies on the go with a big laptop so got this little player. Been enjoying it about 5 months now and have watched lots of DVDs on it. Picture is excellent and the sound through headphones or quality earbuds is outstanding. Sound through onboard speakers is rather small but adequate in a quiet environment. I like most of the controls. I think the visual search buttons should have been better noted. Even a double arrow on them would indicate what the rocking type button is supposed to do. Battery life is decent. I kind of wish the battery was removeable so I could carry a spare like I used to do with my old Panasonic portable. Overall, I'm happy with this one. It has performed quite well and I think it will hold up for years to come.
