Great picture
This review is from: Sony DVPFX705 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
The Sony DVD player gave a great picture, but I have to admit along with the other reviews the volume is too low. I used it on a recent trip. My brother and I both brought our DVD players. His was a $150.00 low end name brand. We shared each others players. His volume was twice as loud as the Sony, but the picture was half as good.

Very Happy
This review is from: Sony DVPFX705 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
We purchased this DVD player to take on a recent trip (for use on airplane). It performed beautifully and the screen resolution is very clear. The sound level is quite adequate even on a plane (we didn't even use the headphones we bought, just kept the volume fairly low so we didn't disturb others). Can't comment on battery life because we only used it for 2 hours each way. Overall we are very happy with this purchase and plan to recommend it to our friends.

Great Picture, Missing Features
This review is from: Sony DVPFX705 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
I've compared several portable DVD players and have owned three. I have yet to see a better picture quality that on this unit, it is crisp with vivid colors. It also has an S-video out which is very useful for playing on larger TVs. Finally, the fit and finish of this unit is top-notch, it looks and feels like a high quality player compared to other brands. If you are looking for a top quality portable DVD player, this is it.

However, for the price, this unit surprisingly lacks two very basic features that can make playing DVDs annoying. First, there is no way to fast forward or rewind without the remote. Secondly, the unit does not "remember" where your movie left off if it is turned off or paused for too long. So suppose you are in the middle of watching a movie, and then turn the unit off. When you turn the unit back on, you will have to restart the movie from the beginning and skip to your scene. If you don't have your remote, skipping to your scene can only be done by skipping to the closest chapter of the movie. At this price, it is almost inexcusable that this unit does not have these basic features. Units at less than half the price often have these features available. What happened?

Does the job
I researched portable players a long time before choosing this unit.

While some say the sound volume is not loud, I would disagree.

DVP FX 705
The picture and sound are great. I took it on a road trip recently and was pleased. The remote works wonderfully.
by Fanning Y. Garcia

why can't I fast forward
For some strange reason, there is no way to fast forward without using the remote, and why would anyone want to carry along a remote to use the player while traveling on a plane...
by C. Perkins

Two more buttons needed . . .
This is a good player, but has limitations that may not be present on all portables. Toyota is said to have once dispatched an army of observers to America with the sole purpose...
by Aging Boomer

Paying for the name
You would think for this much money and a remote control that the volume would be better controled than just a little wheel on the side of this thing.
