Nice piece for the lowest price. It plays all discs it claims very conveniently. Very compact and light weight design makes it easy to handle and fits in almost any where. Remote is very light. The aesthetic aspects(look and color) are not impressive. It's just worth what you pay. Be aware when you decide on this, as it is not region-free dvd player (someone has already suggested a hack).
People wanted to hear more, so I continue after some more analysis on this product.
The hack works fine to play the DVDs and is pretty simple too. (It is so simple that I feel the dvd player manufacturers intentionally leaves a loophole to sell off their products!).
The listing of mp3/jpg files could have been with better user interface. It grabs all the files under all available folders on the disc and prepares a big list. It would be difficult as this is a long list and the folder-wise organisation of files is lost. The number of mp3/jpg files is limited to 500. I read that you can play images and mp3 simultaneously(provided they are on same disc). The normal PC's folder structure is well identified, so any old copied discs can be conveniently played.
The picture/sound quality of DVDs are above average. User interface on DVD features are fine.
