Advantages: Nice Size Screen, good price, lots of the parts made by Sony Disadvantages: sound play back can be below avg on some dvd's
I have owned my MustekPL-207 for 3 months now, I paid only $220 dollars in the U.S.A. and that was with a free film working out to around 105 pounds.
Prices have come down now in the UK so you can pick this amazing bargain up for around 30 pounds more than I paid and although this machine is far from perfect it's the best bit of kit on the market for the price and can whole heartedly recommend it!.

Advantages: Good sound and picture quality, Light and easy to carry, Plays many types of disc Disadvantages: Battery life average
small for my liking. (When I write this review, 3.6" models are now available, but I cannot imagine watching a film on such a small screen. Everyting must be so tiny!!) I decided that for all 3 passengers to be able to watch the film in the back of the car, I would have to invest in something a little larger. The MustekPL407H certainly caught my eye. It has a 7" TFT wide-screen facility, with 16:9 aspect ratio. This gives a stunning image on a good sized screen, of which everbody in the back of the car can see clearly.
SOUND
Sound is one of my big things to watch out for when purchasing a portable DVD player. Some units can give a poor quality sound, that is simply not loud enough when listening to some of the quieter passages of a film. After listening to several players, including a more pricy Goodmans in Dixons, I decided ...
