Hardware Forum
Anyone familiar with this player, I have just found it on a website for about £200, seems like a good deal. I have read a couple of reviews, some favourable and some not so.
Any help?
I have heard it gives a blueish tint to the pictures, but cant verify that.
Old thread may give useful info

Please tell where you saw it for £200? Did this price include P&P?
Thanks.
RE: MUSTEK PL207 Portable DVD
Hi,
My son got this player for Xmas and I must say I am most impressed. Has played all DVD`s wthout any issues, cracking picture (even with the protective film still on the screen - wise with a 10 yr old ;) ), sound pretty good for a unit this size(much better thru headphones). All in all I throughly recommend it.
hope this helps
Cheers
Paul
RE: MUSTEK PL207 Portable DVD
I bought the Goodmans multiregion model a little while ago which looks identical - I think it was about £260, so you`ve found a great price.
It's played everything I've put in it (about half my dvds are not R2).
The picture-quality is ok but very sensitive to angle. Don't buy it expecting the last word in sharpness. You can adjust brightness and colour and… no, that's it.
Sound through the speakers is as thin as you`d expect - it`s ok through the headphones.
The remote control on my model is pants: it still doesn`t work and I`m not sure I can face another trip to the retailer... but since I normally play it within arm`s length that doesn`t matter much.
Battery life is enough for one dvd, so not much use if you want to use it for transatlantic commuting. I bought mine to use in hotel rooms when I`m working away from home, and for that it`s great - my model included a mains adaptor/recharger and a bag full of other extra goodies.
