Design and Features
The unit comes wrapped neatly in a rectangular box with regular accessories, namely, DC-IN 9V charger, cigarette outlet adaptor (12vDC), AY5510 slim remote control, one AV Cable, and the User manual. The player itself is very good looking, due to its slimness and rounded edges. The shape is more or less a rectangle, with a glossy black finish for the top panel.
The rest of the body is a gloss milky white, with shiny metallic silver for the inner drive portion. So here is the point, there is no boring looking tray that comes out to accept discs, rather, you have to slide the whole top panel out upwards, to expose the silver drive. This is a good design element, and is sure to impress people who like innovative design tweaks. The back panel has a 3 sided thin stand that sits flush in a slot carved out. This can be folded outwards to mount the player vertically on a desk. The stand is quite thin though it’s sturdily fixed, and designed well.
The 7-inch screen has a matte finish, with a speaker grille below. Right at the center we have a round 4 way button for menu navigation.
 | To our pleasant surprise here too the player honestly tried its best, especially in vivid scenes of Kung Fu Panda that we were watching. |  |
It has a resolution of 480 x234, brightness of 200 cd/m², contrast ratio (typical) 250:1 and response time (typical) of 30 ms. All regular playback modes of DVD players are present here namely A-B Repeat, Angle, Disc Menu, Fast Backward, Fast Forward, OSD, Repeat, Shuffle Play, Slow Backward, Slow Forward and Zoom.
Since it don't have adjustable screen like other Portable DVD Players it would be very uncomfortable to be used in CAR or for travel. Philips should come up with adjustable revolving screen like Mitashi.
