Broke Twice in Two Years

When it worked, it was great.

When it worked.

First, like in other reviews, one day it just died. Luckily, it was under warranty and Samsung did fix it. They said the motherboard got fried, but all I did was charge it...?

Then, over the past few months, the screen started to get dimmer and dimmer, so that I can't watch any dark scenes at all in a normally-lit room. Trying to watch Sin City was like listening to a radio show with occasional white flashes on the screen.

Finally, tonight, the thing just died again. Since it isn't covered by the warranty anymore, this time it goes in the trash.

same as the others

I too bought mine a year and three months ago. It was working great and then all of sudden stoped working and will not turn on or charge. I bought this refurbished agreed to pay extra for a extended four year warranty but will see what comes of that. My suggestion is buy the longest warranty possible for any of these portable dvd players as i have heard of problems with many different brands.

broken for me too

I like this player, but it has now failed, and i take it from the other reviews that i am not going to be able to find it worthwhile to repair. I've had it for a year. Very disappointing. It won't read any dvds, not commercially purchased ones, not ones i've burned, nothing, nada, zip. It grunts and grinds for several minutes and then says "disc cannot be read."
