OVERVIEW
I bought the LS83 DVD player manufactured by Panasonic, not because I am a shocking parent, but to make some of our longer family journeys a little more peaceful...
At £ 160.00, (with a little change!), it was quite an investment, but it does come very well packaged, with an easy to understand manual, and its sharp black finish makes it very pleasing to the eye. Prices do seem to vary, and with a little more time, and research, we could have bought it for around £ 125.00!
This is a very easy to use product, and the kids are able to use it (probably easier) than we do.
TECHNICALS
It has a 8’5" LCD screen that can be used for keeping the little ones happy, or my husband uses it for his business presentations.
The screen has a hinge that allows for both vertical and horizontal adjustment, to allow everyone to be able to view, and is very robust!
The full dimensions of the product are 1.85" x 9.6" x 6.85" and it weights at 2.25 lbs. although I haven't put it on the scales!
Sound wise its pretty good, although when the car is moving, it is a little hard to hear.
It is fully compatible with a wide variety of disc formats including the usuals DVD, DVD±R/RW, DVD±R DL, DVD-RAM, SVCD, VCD, CD, and CD-R/RW. It comes inclusive with the headrest mounts, and a DC in-car adapter.
The LS83 has got up to 6 hours of playback time with the included battery, which gets us through most journeys on the train or in the car. and you can also use it to play CDs on that long road trip.
SUMMARY
I think despite its price tag it has made our travels a little more comfortable, and we even took it camping last week, although charging was an issue!
There are cheaper products on the market, but I believe in my limited experience this one couldnt be better!
