Absolutely Fantastic!
First, shop around. There are a lot of good deals out there on this item. I've read the other reviews, and I can't really agree with all of them. Perhaps it's because my unit was manufactured in July of 2002, but I have no problems with the sound. Let me clarify. Sure, from the built in spea..

Just what I wanted
Use this more as a travel babysitter. Picture is great - and while I am sure the sound would be woefully inadequate for a big action movie - it works fine for kid's shows. Plus looking at it never had any doubt the sound was not great. I do think the battery life could be better - key hint be sur..

Beautiful unit if you don't care about sound...
Read the reviews about bad sound, but decided to give the unit a try anyway. Mistake! Tried it out right away and, sure enough, the sound was just no good. But, I did take a recommendation from a review and buy a Boostaroo (which I will use on the unit I did buy). Bought an Audiovox 1680 (tried the ..

Wish I could hear it...
I bought the SD-P1500 for a great price through another online vendor and was very excited to try it out. We took it on a long car ride and found the screen to be excellent, but the built-in speakers had a limited volume range. I was willing to overlook that shortcoming as I imagined using headset..

I am happy with it, but.........
First of all, this is an OK dvd player. Toshiba does make great products, but this is an exception. ... but the size is an issue. It isn't that big, but when you put on the battery pack it transforms to a much bigger size. Also the picture quality is worse than my tv. I would have no problem with th..

A great machine
I have been looking at other portable DVD players made by Sony, Pioneer, Sharp and Panasonic and finally chose Toshiba SD-P1500. Yes, Panasonic's 9" model is bigger but the picture quality is not as good as this one and it costs more. Why did I choose this machine?1. I need a portable machine that c..

great product
After doing a lot of research I finally had a chance to see the Toshiba in person. I was impressed and took the dive. The next night I took it on the road. This is a great machine. I had no pixel probelms, which seem to pop up so often in other machines reviews. No sound problems. Without headphones..

Simply brilliant piece of equipment!!!!!!!
I recently just bought this DVD player about 3 weeks ago and I'm just blown away with all the features and the stunning picture quality that this little thing produces. The pictures are so clear and sharp that it doesn't even look real. There are so many features that this thing has that I'm still t..

Fun Toy - Buy Quality Not Size
This is a nice, full-featured DVD player that for its expanded screen size is still very portable. I did think there was some drop-off in picture quality from some smaller screen sizes I've used, but this one can be adjusted to perfect the display without too much trouble...

Quality but at a price!
Very sharp 8 inch screen with all the bells and whistles one could ask for. However, the battery life when in use with DVD's does not come close to what the manual describes. Also, the volume for DVD's when in either an airplane or car cannot be adjusted to an acceptable level. Suggest that you buy ..

Excellent ergonomics, so-so display
The Toshiba SD-P1500 is one of the best styled portable DVD players I've seen. The controls are easy to use, except for the fact that you have to tunnel into menus to access fast-forward and rewind controls. The display is very large, at 8 inches. In addition it has an excellent contrast ratio an..

Great player - poor sound...
I bought this portable DVD player for the primary purpose of watching DVD movies on the plane when I travel. I tried the player at home alone and everything seemed great. When I recently used the player on a plane however I was very disappointed that the sound wouldn't go any louder. The backgrou..

A big step back from the Toshiba SDP-1000
Anyone looking seriously at the SDP-1500 should instead try to scrounge one of the remaining SDP-1000 models. While the SDP-1500 is as good as any 7" screen model out there, it is a big technology and image quality step behind the SDP-1000. Sure, the SDP-1000 lacks some buttons on the body of the..

AWESOME PLAYER!!!!!
I've had this player three weeks and IT ROCKS! It was a replacement for my Awia DDW5 player, which was a replacement for my Panasonic PDV-L55 player. The picture is simply BREATH TAKING ! This player has more features on it than any other I've had a chance to test. As with ALL portable DVD players t..

Great Picture, what sound?
I bought this player at a local retail store because the picture was fantastic. i didnt use it right away because we were planning a trip to the beach on the weekend. i figured a good movie would keep my passengers preoccupied during the 2+ hour drive. It would have worked too if only the volume on..
