Not bad for a portable

byGlobey Jul 10, 2004
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Compact, easy to use, decent value.
Cons Poor sound quality, somewhat noisy operation.
Recommended it? Yes

I did a lot of research before purchasing the portable DVD player, and then when I went to the store to buy it they had another higher-end model displayed next to it. Comparing the features and the price, this was the better deal, and so far I'm pleased with the purchase. I didn't have to spend a... Read full review »

Second one down after minimal use

bymariapic Dec 14, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Cheap price, cheap product
Cons paid $75 for extra battery, 3 batteries - 2 broken dvd players
Recommended it? No

The first one stopped working after it was dropped which is understandable. So I bought a second one brand new and after only using twice minimally (maybe a total of 5 hours max. on plane flights)for no apparent reason the screen has died, just has several lines going through it. I won't be... Read full review »

Nice player for the price

bybktev Mar 27, 2005
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros large screen compared to others in price range, good battery life
Cons built-in speaker quality is marginal at best
Recommended it? Yes

Received this player as a Xmas gift and have taken it with me on business trips for entertainment in hotels and planes/airports. Larger screen size than most portables in its price range. Video quality lacks sharpness of home video equipment, but is certainly adequate for the purpose. Built-in... Read full review »

Pros Has audio/video inputs for plugging in game consoles Good size, screen Cheap
Cons Noisy operation Can still have black bars on some widescreen movies
Recommended it? Yes

I was looking for a cheap portable DVD player that had audio/video input/outputs and Mintek 1810 was the best solution I found. I got it for under $170 with case, headphones, car adapter, audio splitter, remote. I liked the decent size screen, which was not too small and not too big. The audio was... Read full review »

Pros Easy controls, sleek design
Cons Doesn't work! Bad quality picture. Company not responsive to consumers.
Recommended it? No

I had my eye on this player for over a year before I finally bought it for myself. It came in a package with a carry case, 2 headphones, and a car adapter so I thought it was a great value. However, it only worked for the first 3 hours until the battery discharged, at which time I was unable to... Read full review »

Mintek - 10 inch disappointment

2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Screen Size - Input - Progressive scan output with included mini to component cable.
Cons Picture quality - Disc Playback both LOUD and limited.
Recommended it? No

I had a Polaroid unit that was a great little unit, however, it had problems playing DVD+-R discs. I needed that feature so I looked at the Mintek. I also needed an input ability and this was the only other unit at the store that had it. It advertises the ability to play multiple formats. I also... Read full review »

Pros Price (329.99 at Costco), Picture is great, Lots of features, lot of extras
Cons Built in speakers a bit tinny
Recommended it? Yes

We purchased this player for Christmas and have used it on several long driving trips since. It has performed flawlessly. The battery works for at least 3 hours and it also came with a plug-in for the car for longer trips. The sound through the built in speakers is a bit tinny, but if you plug it... Read full review »
