Samsung DVD-L25 Hand Held Mini DVD's Player (Electronics)
This review is from: Samsung DVD-L25 Hand Held Mini DVD's Player (Electronics)
The system (as of 9 Sept 2006) is incorrectly listed as a "Samsung DVD-L25 Portable DVD Player with 3" Screen"
This discription is wrong:
The unit does not have a 3" screen, it has a 2.5" screen. This can be verified on samsungs web site which states:
"Samsung offers this new ultra portable DVD player which plays Mini-DVDs and displays images on a bright 2.5" TFT LCD"
Also this "DVD Player" will not play standard size DVDs. It is technicaly a "Mini DVD player" and will only play the special 3" mini DVDs used in DVD video cameras.
Getting beyond Amazon's deceptive advertising practices the unit has several issues:
Battery life is horrible. It is advertised at 2.5 hours but I am getting considerably less. While the batteries are rechargeable it is a hassle as they have to be removed from the unit.
While blank media abounds publishers have abandoned the mini-DVD format, anything you play on the unit you will have to "burn" yourself.
For a portable unit it is VERY sensitive to any vibration. For best viewing place on a table or other stationary surface.
It looks toylike but this is not for younger children. There are too many buttons, no "hold" mode (the buttons are always active), the main control is a finicky joystick and a nasty "put an eye out" warning if you lift the lid to look at the laser.
