Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Coby TFDVD7051 7-Inch Portable Tablet Style DVD/CD/MP3 Player, SilverCustomer Review: Impressed so far. Summary: 4 Stars
So far I have to say I am impressed initially. That said, I have only owned it a week. I do fear that this dvd player may not last too long given spotty reliability reports in the long run. Only time will tell. It seems some people have bad luck, some people just don't realize how hard they are on this type of portable device, and some of it is likely Coby being a mediocre off brand. One certainly doesn't see as many complaints about Sony products of this nature. Nonetheless, I am not one to buy extended warranties but I did buy the 2 year plan from SquareTrade for about $10. Squaretrade has positive reviews here on Amazon and elsewhere. I think in this case the portable dvd player is an item built for an extended warranty, particularly keeping Coby's bad reputation and poor customer service in mind. I plan on using my warranty before the two years are up. I would even bet on it, lol. It's not that this item is that bad, it's pretty decent honestly, it's just the nature of the portable/budget beast and Coby.
All of the reliability issues aside, this is about as good as it gets if you are looking for a portable tablet style dvd player at a budget price. It comes with more stuff than most will likely ever use, or know how to use, lol. I like that it has an internal battery (some actually don't and AREN'T truly portable) and so far I have been able to get about 3.5 hrs out f mine on the battery. Good for the car or the plane or whatever. The sound is loud. Louder than most actually. The car "bag" is okay. It works but nothing fancy and yes you do have to the dvd player out of the bag to load it. The car charger cable is decent but likely too short for many. I have a MINI Cooper so no problem for my daughter in the back seat in a small car. The ear phones (both included pairs) are useless and uncomfortable. Other people said this was so and I assumed they were just being picky. Nope, the earphones are that bad, lol. I like that two people can plug in earphones separately though. Also this dvd player can be used as a monitor for your portable games or other items since it had video in and comes with the cables. I haven't even mentioned all the extra stuff this comes with. Remote, remote batteries, indoor charger, aux sound cable and more...Outstanding!
One thing to keep in mind is the form factor. Do you really need or want the tablet style? I did and love it, especially for the back of the car headrest, but you may not and may be better off with the clam shell style depending on what and where you intend to use it.
So we will see if this one lasts more than a year...or a month...
