Coby TF-DVD7050 Portable DVD Player

Pros: Well Made. Versatile unit. Price.

Cons: Nothing

The Bottom Line: You simply can't go wrong with this unit.

Review: This unit offers the best bang for the buck that I have ever seen in a DVD player of this sort. It feels extremely well made (with some metal parts even) and seems very durable. The unit seriously reminds me of a Panasonic Toughbook in some ways, ...

Pros: Good quality video, good accessories, and a great price.

Cons: Very sensitive to temperature change, questionable life span.

The Bottom Line: It is cheap, and it has lasted for us, at least. I would recommend to buy one, but treat it nice and be aware of its warranty.

Review: I've heard good things, I've heard bad things. We decided to take a chance on this particular model last April because it was very well priced, and we wanted our daughter to be able to watch movies during long road trips. I also wanted something I ...

Pros: Lots of extras included with the unit, compact

Cons: Battery drains when left in unit, screen flicker, store/transport with care because screen is exposed.

The Bottom Line: Lots of nice features, but some problems as well.

Review: When I first received this it was like Christmas in a tiny box. Here is a list of what is included * DVD player * Removable battery * AC adapter for wall outlet * Power adapter for a car's cigarette ...

Pros: child-friendly device with carrying case to hang from headrest, 16:9 ratio screen

Cons: Durability seems to be a consistent problem

The Bottom Line: Good for a child who is likely to break it eventually anyway. Bad for an adult who will be frustrated when it stops working for no reason.

Review: I bought a Coby 7050 Portable DVD Player last fall to let my two-year old son play his DVDs and CDs during long car trips. It worked for just under a year, but recently started giving us "Wrong Disk" errors -- now it will not play any DVD or CD. ...

Pros: reasonably priced, comes with lots of extras, nice size.

Cons: stopped working after 6 months, only reads wrong disc

The Bottom Line: spend more and get a better brand and warranty

Review: bought this for my kids to watch dvd's on car rides, I liked that it came with so much stuff, remote, headrest case, 2 ear phones, car charger and plug charger. Seemed to work fine until one day it just read wrong disc and hasn't worked since and we have ...

Pros: Good video quality on the TFT 7050 before it died.

Cons: So many technical problems. not built to last.

Review: Just as the previous reviewer, right at the end of the 90 day warranty, kaput. My unit did go out before the 90 day period (battery started to run hot and case expanded) and Coby replaced it with an upgraded unit. It has problems too. Now it will not ...

Pros: Works ok during the warranty period

Cons: dead after warranty period

Review: We had this unit for 95 days before the unit stopped functioning. Calling their support number was no help. They emphatically refused warranty service since it only covered the first 90 days. Searching through the net, I have found other users of ...
