Argos Value PVS3377 Portable

My eldest child is a big fan of the simpsons and loves to watch harry potter, due to having a younger child he doesnt get much chance to enjoy the luxuary of sitting and being able to watch things in peace since she loves to turn the tele off. I purchased this from argos at christmas which was his main presant it was priced up at £50 and I allocate £100 each child at christmas so this was half of his money gone. I took it out of the box when I got back home to ensure it worked. The instructions were clear to understand with diagrams to help. It came with a charger and a remote control and was smaller than I thought. It had to be charged ...  Read the complete review

- Introduction - Keeping an eye out for bargains recently, I spotted an 8" portable DVD player on sale at my local Sainsburys store for £59.99 and I went home to search for reviews on the model. However, there weren't any that I could find but I did spot some negative ones for the brand and when I thought it through, I decided that I really didn't need an 8" screen but that my priority would be to get a pretty bog standard portable DVD player that would do the job alright and that would be as good value for money as possible.

My little boy received this very portable DVD player for Christmas off my mother as he absolutely loves watching films and cartoons etc, it was the ideal present!! I now get to watch the TV in peace whilst my boy watches his films on this player!

This is a great little thing for camping /holidays /car journeys ect. The battery lasts about 2 hours on average which should get you through a dvd. If travelling by car you can buy a separate in car charger which is a good investment. The visible screen size is 17.7 cm and at the minute in argos its selling for under £50 which I think is a good price for a portable dvd player. Its very easy to set up and it comes with a remote aswell ( battery is also included) . It is wise to buy headphones as these aren't supplied, that way you can listen without disturbing other people - like if you are on a train. The picture and sound quality are very good and I think it's a great ...  Read the complete review
