Audiovox D1812PK 8-Inch Portable LCD DVD Player with Car Kit
Does what we were looking for
Previous reviews have commented on reliability, resolution and audio volume through the speakers. We have not have any problems with reliability, resolution (on the 8\\" screen and connected to a TV) is just fine, and audio volume through the headphones is adequate even on an airplane (speakers are OK in a room). The unit is not designed for volume through the speakers in a vehicle, so if that's what you are looking for, this isn't it. <br /> <br />What we liked was the 8\\" screen. We found 7\\" screens to be too small, and 9\\" screens to result in a unit that was too bulky. The 8\\" screen is just right, regardless of whether the image is played in standard 4:3 format or widescreen. Two headphones are great, and having a splitter isn't an issue. <br /> <br />The only issues we've identified is the 2-3 hour battery life (it's OK, but longer life would be better), and the lack of a video patch cable (the adapter is included, but you need to buy a separate cable to connect it to a TV - add $10-$15 for this). <br /> <br />Would I buy this unit again? Without question.
