There are some drawbacks, despite the great features. There is not a screen mode that allows the player to accommodate older versions of wide screen DVDs. In such cases, the player has black bands on all four sides of the screen. Setting the LCD mode to full screen causes the picture to stretch and become distorted. If is fine, though for recent discs that are “enhanced for 16 x 9.” It is a little heavier than some other players, particularly when the battery is in it.

The player, as a whole, though is excellent. The controls run along the bottom of the screen so that no matter which way the screen is flipped, they are accessible.
