Rating: Summary: Best Gadget I've Ever Purchased! Review: I am truly a gadget person and always looking to get the neatest thing available that I can afford. The Audivox portable DVD player is the bomb! I absolutely love it! I take it to work and every where else I travel. It's so small and light and just fits into my "carry all" bag that accompanies me everywhere, along with a nice variety of movies in a little CD case. It's truly the best. Great picture, good sound, everything you need all in one affordable package.
Rating: Summary: CAN BEAT THIS PORTABLE Review: Great video, sound and accesories.Can't beat the price.Smaller than the toshiba. The battery pack is a little bulky. But it even plays DVD-R!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: THE BEST ON THE MARKET! Review: I have tried them all, and this one works. I have several DVDs that freeze or skip at certain points of play that I tested at several offline retailers as well as Amazon.com. This unit comes through with flying colors. It played them all! The price is right. I highly recommend this DVD player.It also has amazing image resolution and sound. I have this unit next to my bed and use the input jack which is connected to my digital cable. When using ear plugs I can watch TV without disturbing the wife at night.
Rating: Summary: The short and sweet of it all! Review: This is one of the best portables for the price. The picture is good and the screen is big as portables go. One things that I like is the in/out video switch. Signal can come in as well as go out. I hooked my PlayStation to the unit and it works great. So much so that I went out a brought the new mini-PS1 unit. If I could talk my wife into it I would buy 2 (Audiovox DVD 1680's). Stop laughing you know you can't talk your wife into anything. Buy this unit and enjoy.
Rating: Summary: Audiovox, an underrated company that can hold it's own. Review: I just received the 1680 dvd from audiovox. I love it. It comes with everything you need. For all you "soccer moms" out there who, like I, spend your life in the car waiting for someone, it sure does make the time pass quicker. I am catching up on all the movies I would have liked to have seen had I had the time. I also have a younger child that is getting use in the car. Some of the bigger makers charge you extra for the car adapter but you receive it with the audiovox. you also get a battery that will take you to the end of any movie you have even if you get out of the car. The battery is charging as you are watching so it is always ready.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: 1. The lith-ion battery lasts for me almost four hours. 2. The large screen is great for 4:3 ratio, and just fine for widescreen. 3. Picture quality is very good. 4. This unit even has decent sound. A definate improvement over the earlier model! Recommended.
Rating: Summary: Audiovox is the worst company I have ever dealt with.... Review: My husband bought me this player less than 3 years ago for mothers day. The screen died while my son was watching it. I could get sound and a faint picture but mostly black screen. It was still under warranty when this happened. I dealt with Audiovox customer service regularly for 4 months before they replaced it with the D1730 stating that it couldnt be repaired. I was upset because I lost some of the features I liked about this DVD player ie: the ability to charge the battery while my son watched a DVD. All the service people kept saying was "but the screen is bigger" as if that would be the only feature I cared about. I have had the 1730 under 2 years and it only gets occasional use when we are on a long car trip. The screen on this player has now died; right in the middle of a trip my 5 year old starts to cry because he cant see the screen. The same problem as the last player I had. I will never buy another Audiovox product again and as you can see from my review, if I can save anyone else the agony of dealing with Audiovox customer service, I will.
I would highly recommend you go running from any product Audiovox makes. [...]
Rating: Summary: It just keeps going Review: I bought this model almost 3 years ago and it is indistructable. I bought it for my husband but we ended up using it to entertain our son when we go out to eat. We have used this at least twice a week for 3 years and it performs great. It still holds a 3 hour charge. We have taken it on planes, in the car, every where and it keeps going. I'm looking to buy another one but will probably get a newer model. Hope it holds up as well.
Rating: Summary: tooooo hot! Review: We purchased this unit about 3 weeks ago and noticed the very first day how incredibly hot this unit gets! We have only watched about 4 movies on it so far, but every time we do it gets very hot in the base near the AC/DC adapter, and the last time we used it, very hot in the upper left corner above the screen. It works fine so far, although the volume could be louder on the speakers. I cannot believe that it is good for the unit to operate at these temperatures, and with all of the bad reviews, I plan on trying to return mine to Wal-Mart.
Rating: Summary: Audiovox DVD Player is a real piece of [junk] Review: We purchased this unit for Christmas of 2002. In July 2003 the player quit entirely...disc would spin but the screen was flat gray. No picture. Called Audiovox, they had no idea what the problem was and said to ship it back. Spent $10 to return via ups. They could not repair so sent a replacement. The 2nd one worked until January of 2004, then quit also. This time I was told that because the 1 year warranty had expired (from the date of purchase-not the date of replacement) I was out of luck. I could send it back for repairs at my expense. Fortunately I had the foresight to have purchased it on American Express which automatically doubles a warranty up to one year. Amex is going to refund my money so that I can purchase a new unit. The next one will definitely NOT BE AN AUDIOVOX!!
