Summary: Better Than I Thought It Would Be
Review: I bought this unit while I was in Kuwait (you kow... that big sandbox where soldiers go play every few years) and I wasnt hoping for great picture quality, sound or even durability. I was just looking for a way to watch some dvds now and then. Sure, its heavy as a box of ammo, and the battery is even heavier. Sure, the screen is pretty small, but its clear enough that two or three joes can huddle around it to watch Girls Gone Wild. HA! It is what it is.. a cheap player, but its a lot better than I thought it would be. It has even survived the trip to Saudi Arabia, and is used almost daily, with never a freeze, overheat, or any other malfunction. Take care of it, and it will play your dvds.

Summary: Not bad for the price
Review: I got this Apex PD10 on Ebay for $165 new. Lowest price I could find anywhere on the net.
I read alot of reviews about the unit getting very hot while being used, not the case with mine. Don't know if it's because I don't put it flat on the surface of the table (back end propped up) or if thats just how this unit is. The picture is pretty clear, color is alittle on the red side, the color control doesn't do much good. I wish it had direction controls on the unit itself, you have to navigate with the remote. Not always easy. Esp. if you have big fingers. The 5.6" screen is big enough, I don't have a problem viewing anything. Does have a zoom feature but keeps a smaller pic of the org. in the upper left corner so it blocks part of the zoomed pic. weird.
All in all, a decent Dvd player. If I had more time to really look at more (taking it on a trip), I would probably spend alittle more and get a different one though.

Summary: BATTERY NEVER WORKED
Review: I got this for a xmas gift for my husband and he never used it. So I decided I would use it myself. It had been sitting in the box for about 4 months so of course I charged the battery. All the lights worked while I was charging it so I attached it to the unit and nothing. I read the manual and turned on all the right buttons and still nothing. I thought the unit was broken and I wanted to make sure so I plugged it in to the wall. To my surprise it worked and it was just the battery. So now I'm concerened at this point regarding my warrenty for the battery. I'll keep you posted but after reading these reviews I'm not happy.

Summary: Save your money!!!!
Review: I just want to warn you about this companies equipment. They don't stand behind it at all. So far I have owned 2 of their prodects and neither one has lasted 1 year. Unfortunately, their warentee is for 90 days. This Portable DVD players battery never worked (I brought 3 of them back before I got one that worked and that one stopped working after 40 days...and the batteries only warenteed for 30 days). This company does not stand behind their products and their customer service...well I guess they call it that...is useless. Trust me...don't buy anything from them. Save your money!!!

Summary: Great value for the price~
Review: I purchased two of these for each of my daughters and they both use theirs almost daily and I haven't had any problems with either of them. Everything works and the display is great for the price~!! I am extremely happy with the value of these items.

Summary: Great little gadget
Review: I received the Apex PD-10 as a gift, while on vacation in California, so I had an opportunity to use it on the trip home. It has a great picture and great sound as long as your using the earphones. I was disappointed the battery did not last longer as I had to wait until I got home to see the end of the movie. The book says it will last for 3 hours so has long as its a short movie your okay. It does come with a adapter for the car, so that will be great for a road trip.

Summary: my first portable and most likely my last
Review: if this is the shoddiness i am to expect out of a portable dvd player then i will never buy another.first, the thing isn't even a widescreen display like in the picture.
secondly, the thing practically cooks the discs, they get so hot.
third, if you lose a little part, you're screwed. Apex, doesn't offer replacements. i lost the remote, and now i can't access anything, i have to hit play and i can only see the movie. good luck with TV show DVDs that have you individually select episodes.
it seems like nothing but negative complaints as we continue:
when you turn the unit on its side to turn up the volume it starts to scratch the disc up. oh, and did i mention the extreme heat! Do yourself a favor, save yourself some money and buy a better brand, because you will have nothing but problems with this!

Summary: apex rules the world
Review: if youre not aware of the apex brand, perhaps this little device will help you understand: apex and their multiple rebrands sell more dvd players than any other manufacturer in the world. theres one reason why; apex makes stuff cheap-but-functional. this player, like all other apex equipment ive ever tried, fits both those qualifications perfectly. yes, it gets kinda hot; but does it really get hotter than other portable dvd players; i dunno. yes, the battery is big; but how often will you really use it; it comes off and stays off easily. yes, ya gotta use the remote to use mosta the onscreen menu functions; but are 4 on-board menu buttons really worth a difference of $100 or more? yes, its a 4:3 screen, but small is small; the difference between a 5" and 7" screen image isnt really all that great at this level... plus, youve probably been watching letterboxed movies for years now; this is no different, only smaller. my bottom line: regardless of the few small compromises one must make to justify this player, you cant argue much about the cost. no other full-featured, fully-fledged portable player can even come close!

Summary: No problems with my Apex PD 10
Review: Its been 8 months since purchase of apex pd10 and no problems. Some people complain that the screen freezes, no problem so far. Some people complain that the unit heats up but only noticed this once when the unit was on a blanket. Great for road trips...keeps the kids quiet and for the price it is worth every penny!!!
