Sony DVP-FX701 Portable DVD Player with 7" LCD

Product Description

The DVP-FX701 is an incredibly portable DVD player that can be used just about anywhere. Take it on a plane, train, or automobile - the player is small enough to fit in a purse or briefcase. It features 16: 9 aspect ratio, 7" screen and up to 3 hour battery life. The DVP-FX701 even comes with a headphone Y splitter, so two people can listen at once. A DC car charger is included for convenient battery recharging.

Amazon.com Product Description

Finally, a way to turn downtime into prime time. Sony's stylish, slender DVP-FX701 offers a 7-inch widescreen TFT liquid-crystal display whose 16:9 aspect ratio matches that of your favorite feature films. Built-in stereo speakers offer virtual surround for a more spacious effect, and the unit plays CDs, too--leave the screen down, plug your headphones in, and crank it up (but not too loud). The DVP-FX701's 3-hour lithium-ion battery ensures uninterrupted viewing of all but the longest movies, and an included AC power adapter lets you watch from the hotel room--you can even plug it into a TV on the road or at home through the unit's minijack S-video and composite-video outputs.

Use the player to listen to your MP3 CDs and to view slideshows of your most recent or most precious digital photos--perfect for those infrequent visits to mom and dad. A compact remote control affords ready access to the device from up to several feet away, and its brushed-aluminum finish lends an air of refined elegance.

Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (through a .125-inch minijack-to-Toslink optical cable, not supplied) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The outputs are switchable as AV inputs, too, in case you want to use the screen as a monitor for a camcorder or video-game device.

The resume feature automatically restarts playback from the point where you last stopped a disc. The model measures a mere 7.4 inches in length and 5.9 inches wide and a mere inch thick (without the battery). Headphones are not included.

What's in the Box
DVD player, remote control (RM-D163A), 2 AA batteries, one 7.4V lithium-ion battery, an RCA-to-minijack analog audio/composite-video interconnect, an AC adapter, and a user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Great Player.......2007-11-23

I'm not sure what all the bad reviews are for this unit has lasted me for years and that's with an 11 year old playing it to death. I really do get tired of Sony haters filling up all the reviews with bad data.

4 out of 5 stars I Love this machine!.......2007-06-21

I got this for Christmas 3 years ago and have been using it almost every day since them for over 2 hours. The sound quality is not so great in the car, but thats what headphones are for! Mine stopped working the other day though, I wish sony had a better support program though. If anyone knows how to stop the 'No Disc' error, please contact me at [...]

This DVD player is great, even if I got a few errors, but those are easily remedied. The only 2 problems are that there is not volume control on the remote and fast forward/slow buttons on the actual DVD player.

I recommend this DVD player for those who can take care of it and take it on trips, planes, and for universal use in the home environment.

1 out of 5 stars Not worth the price of admission.......2006-09-14

I got this item as a gift and it worked for only one DVD. When I tried to charge it up again later, the charge wouldn't take. I sent it back to Sony and two weeks later, was told that a new battery would cost $225 (and no, they wouldn't waiver on it despite the fact it was a gift and I had no receipt). I'm not going to waste any more time with Sony and will look elsewhere for a replacement. I hope Amazon yanks this product from their site.

1 out of 5 stars Just stopped working.......2006-09-06

I have had the player for approximately one year and hardly ever used it. I have played about 10 DVD's on it and when I got it out to use it the other day I started watching a movie and the screen all of a sudden froze. I tried to push fast forward, pause, and play and the player did nothing. I turned it off and back on and now all I get is No Disc or Disc Error on the screen. I believe the player should have been capable of playing at least a thousand DVD's before a failure. I kept the player in a case in my closet so it wasn't setting out in direct sunlight or anything. I am very disappointed in this product and have written Sony about it. I will have to wait and see how well they back the products they sell.

1 out of 5 stars Pile of Garbage.......2006-05-14

I've had this unit 10 months. Firstly, you can't use it without a battery, even if its connected the mains. What a joke. So my first battery wouldn't recharge, and Sony charged me $258 for a new battery. Half what I paid for the whole DVD.
That battery lasts 5 hours, and the system turns off. It won't recharge either. So today, they tell me my power adapter needs exchanging, and thats $158. I tell them to shove it, I'm never buying another piece of junk from this company ever again. I read they are struggling to prevent from going bankrupt. With this terrible service, I'll be happy if they never sell anything to anyone ever again.

4 out of 5 stars Does the job.......2007-03-27

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

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

I like that the battery clips on. If running off A/C or in the car, you can remove it.

Battery life better than expected.

The only quirk is no volume control on the remote. You'll get used to it.

A very good choice and worth the $.

4 out of 5 stars Great Picture, Missing Features .......2006-08-15

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?

4 out of 5 stars DVP FX 705.......2006-03-10

The picture and sound are great. I took it on a road trip recently and was pleased. The remote works wonderfully. I did notice one glitch though, and that was maybe in the third or fourth episode the words coming out of the actors mouths were delayed. So I hit the next button bakwards or forwards then went back to the episode and it would play correctly.
It was weird it happened a couple of times but all in all I am pleased.

3 out of 5 stars Great picture.......2006-03-09

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.

2 out of 5 stars why can't I fast forward.......2006-02-21

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 or train?
