This is a great little device. It is solidly built, has good audio and video, and easy controls. I use it all over the house these days to watch movies or listening to my Ipod while running on the treadmill, doing dishes, folding laundry, or playing on my computer.
Audio: speakers can play much louder and better than you'd expect from a unit this size. I was afraid it would have a small tinny sound I wouldn't be able to hear when making any noise myself. It has a lot of power and sounds very good.
Video: 7" is a good screen size. Picture is wonderful even on lowest brightness setting. No problems with motion artifacts. Subtitles on DVDs are clear and readable.
External Hookups: Has 2 headphone plugins. Comes with AV cable to output to a TV or take input from any device.
Controls: Buttons are sturdy and straightforward. Thankfully everything is done with separate buttons rather than being hidden in a painful menu system like so many other products. You can switch aspect ratio, audio-video source and control all aspects of DVD playing from buttons right on front center of device. Remote has similar excellent controls are nicely labeled. Remote comes with battery.
Build Quality: Very sturdy. One of the reasons I move it around a lot is because I can - it is strong enough to handle it. When the lid is closed it fits nicely in the hand and keeps playing then you just pop it open again where you want. Controls on side for brightness and volume are recessed so they don't stick out. All edges are bevelled or rounded so it's smooth and easy to carry.
Random Things: It's nice that it comes with the AV cable to output to a TV or take input from another device. Also comes with a car lighter adapter. Stated battery life of 2.5 hours is only for playing DVDs. It will play Ipod video for 5+ hours.
Complaint: internal battery only charges when device is switched to Off. To be perfect it should recharge anytime it's on AC power.
Overall: This thing is a great device for extending your Ipod listening/watching away from headphones-only. It's light, strong, and has good video and audio output. |

Battery life is about 2.5 hours. Initial charge required is 8 hours. Recharges in 6 hours. Must be turned off to recharge. Battery is built into unit.
I am considering buying this and it took me forever to find the above info, so I just thought I'd share. |
Philips DCP750 is REALLY SWEET!

I simply NEVER write reviews, but I want to say that I started out a little concerned, the manual said 2.5 hours per charge..OH NO, I need this for a 5 hour cross country flight...WELL, it turns out the 2.5 hours is when spining the DVD motor, I ran my IPOD videos for almost 6 HOURS straight on one charge...SWEET!!
Also, this plays DIVX, which was just the icing on the cake, I love it!
The only concern I have is the self contained battery, but at this price who cares. |
Great Product

| This player brings my iPod video to life. I got tired of headphones and the small screen for viewing my podcasts. This player brings my video podcasts to life and plays DVDs pretty well, especially self-burned DVDs. Highly recommended. |

Overall it works and performs excellent when compared to similar items from a price standpoint and technical features. Battery life is acceptible.
A real good buy.It comes with accessories, too, that you do not need to buy extra. |
This Dvd player rocks!

| I almost spent 100$ on a a/v dock for my ipod and then saw this little baby. Not only does it charge and dock my ipod, but it lets me watch my ipod movies, videos and podcasts as well as play dvds and pictures from my camera and more. I love it and it definitely keeps my son entertained both in the car and at the restaurant. It is well worth the money we spent on it. |
