Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony DVP-FX730 7-Inch Portable DVD Player, Black
Customer Review: 90 Day Warranty - 100 Day Lifespan
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this DVD player for the backseat passengers to watch movies on weekend trips. Over a 3 1/2 month period, the Sony DVD player was used on about six or seven trips, for two or three hours each...less than 20 hours of total use. At that point, it began "freezing up" during the opening menu or after about the first five minutes of the movie. At that point, it was 100 days old, and the 90 day labor warranty had expired.
Sony has offered to replace it with a refurbished player for $33, after I pay $12 shipping and insurance to return it to Sony. So, for $45, I will get a refurbished replacement unit that comes with...you guessed it...a 90 day warranty.
Over the past decade, Sony's once great reputation for high quality products has been going down hill. I will replace this DVD player with either a better one from Panasonic...a company that still makes great products...or I'll buy a "Brand X" player that is cheap and just throw it away when it stops playing.
When the Sony was working, the picture was nice, the sound through headphones was okay, and the sound through its tiny speakers was thin and annoying to hear. The Sony player is NOT better than the cheaper units sold by other companies...customers pay extra for the Sony "name"...a name that no longer means high quality products.
The battery life is about three hours, not the advertised five hours...enough to watch one long movie, or two short movies.
