+ Simple and affordable. Ability to upscale.

- Only one selectable output at a time available via the onscreen menu. Upscaling quality not very impressive.

+ Visually great looking unit, slim and sleek. Lots of functionality but very easy to use, able to change quality of output with a single button push. Makes an excellent job of upscaling standard DVDs

- The slim and sleek factor almost makes it feel a little bit unsubstantial.

+ Brilliant DVD Player, Plays everthing i have thrown at it :-) Also the USB port is great for AVI films straight of the pen drive , what more can you ask for , very pleased with it . No noise and very sleek design.

- My only bad point is the markings on the remote are very faint , I have to put my glasses on to view but that's just my sight fading i reckon, my silver remotes with black markings are much clearer.

Paul, Leicester , “Quite audio/visual concious”

Score 9.0/10

+ Performance is very impressive and sturdy. The sound has a great punch on DVD, CD and USB. The picture detail is amazing in comparison to my older DVD player.

- Design is not striking from a distance. Display is very basic. All other displays are intended to be viewed on screen. But hey at that price, i think its the most excellent toy i have bought for myself in a long time. I mean its great value for money.
