Great Player ... but
By John Oberdiek
I just bought this player after looking at many on the internet and all I could find at retailers in the area. Unlike many of the reviews of other players, I find the sound to be excellent. I started off listening with headphones, but found the speakers to be sufficient on a quiet evening. The screen size, at 10" is incredible and can be viewed from an angle. 2 headphone jacks will allow both my kids to watch it at once ... assuming they get it away from me!
Now, with all that, why didn't I give it 5 stars? It does not come with a DC adapter for the car or plane, and so far I have not been able to find one for this model. The DC voltage is an odd 8.4 volts, so the standard do-it-all adapters do not work. This seems to be a major missing component for a "portable" DVD player.

By remixer
How can anyone say 'no' to this dvd player when it is handed to you as a gift. I didn't. I previously had the panasonic dvd-la95, which I've used for quite some time and loved. But I got this as a gift and sold my panasonic away. Why? Well for one thing, the quality is better (not a lot, but you can tell the difference). It did fix problems everyone complained about from the samsung L100, namely the screen fix from widescreen to standard, and it does remember where you stopped. just make sure you READ THE MANUAL and fix the options to your preference. Also, it hasn't rejected a dvd i fed it yet. I mostly rent my dvd's and some are unplayably scratched, but this unit still plays it (with a few skips of course, but that's the disc).
Minus one star for its size. I know most people will be attracted by the 10 inch screen, but it's actually the problem (at least for me). Before you buy this, you have to see the unit for yourself, how big it actually is. It's a size of a laptop. And at around $800 for a brand new one, you might as well get a laptop.
But if you're one of those who think 'the bigger the better' and feel you have to have one of the best portable dvd players around, this is the player for you. The quality is one of the best i've seen. You'll have to see past the price though, otherwise you're better off getting a laptop with a dvd player (unless you want to mount this bad boy in your car).

Best portable player out
By DaveP
I owned the previous model (L100) and decided to upgrade to the L200 for the new features it offered, mainly the ability to resize the LCD screen for 4:3 and non-anamorphic discs. Contrary to what a previous poster noted, the L200 does have the screen resize feature (E-Z View) as well as a replay/resume function that will continue playing the disc at the point you stopped it. More buttons have been added to the unit itself which allows full functionality without need for the remote (which was a problem with the L100). The player itself basically looks the same and the 10" picture is as glorious and film-like as it's predecessor. Sound through the built-in speakers has been pumped up, and is as good as can be expected form a portable player. Battery life still clocks in at around 2.5 hours, but it's decent considering the size of the screen. Supposedly Samsung is working on an extended life 6 hour battery, but I haven't seen it yet. No matter I just bought a spare in the meantime!
