minchen says "phillips DVD player is good price" about Philips DVD Player

minchen — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 22:33:46 GMT

You will find a good deal in this phillip DVD player. I bought it for a while, my friend bought one also even if she already has another DVD player at home. When I see this pillip DVD player, I immeidatly like it. The first reason is that price is good. Second reason is the shape look good. It look nice with a nice color. I do not like DVD player which is too thin or too thick, this one is right at the correct shape. The last reason to buy this DVD player is because phillip is a good famous brand to trust.

It is important to keep using them. One winter I used another DVD player all the time and did not use this one. Later I found it has a bit difficulty when reading DVD. I called the techincal help line of phillip and they are very friend and patient with me. They show me a responsible attitude and offered me many solutions. Later I ran the DVD player on hot summer days and it recoved.

fortunelly says "Nothing spectacular" about Philips DVD Player

fortunelly — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 06:37:45 GMT

My Philips DVD player gets the job done and is a fair price, but I think if I could go back and buy a different one, I would. There seems to be a common theme among DVD players in that they frequently have a noticeable delay for the dvd tray to pop out. You push the "open/close" button, and finally 5 minutes later, it decideds to comply and open up. I guess realistically it's more like a 5 second delay, but living in the spoiled culture that I do, when I push "open," I want it to open. It also takes a while for it to warm up. When I push the power button, it takes its time waking up and getting a move on. It wants to be sure it's good and ready before it actually commits to doing anything. On the positive side, I have never had any problems with it playing my dvds or mp3s, and it has a comprable quality to more expensive brands. Other than the fact that it stopped working after less than 2 years, it takes a long to warm up, and the dvd tray takes a long time to open, this...

bstonebu32 says "Not so wonderful" about Philips DVD Player

bstonebu32 — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 22:13:29 GMT

I purchased a Philips DVD player about 18 months ago and the first one stopped working after about 9 months. I contacted the company as this machine is in my bedroom and had only been used about 10 times. Of course Philips was great and sent me a new one and I sent the old one back. Now this one, being the second one or the new one the company replaced, is beginning to do the same thing as the old one. About half the time the machine will not recognize the DVD until you have opened and closed the door four or five times. This gets annoying when you just want to sit, relax and watch a movie. I'd pay more, or less, for a product with more consistency....

acb says "Philips DVD player is great - until the warranty ends" about Philips DVD Player

acb — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 13:16:45 GMT

I was initially very happy with the Philips DVD player (model DVP 3040/37) - versatile, straightforward, compact, fit the budget, good picture and sound.

But just 16 months after I bought it - that's 4 months after the free-replacement warranty expired - the player hangs up (freezes) while switching tracks or chapters, making it essentially useless. (Unless all you really want to watch is the FBI warning.)

No troubleshooting or repair is available. Online customer service "live chat" is really a robot that offers no help whatsoever. Phone customer service with a real person was helpful, but the only option is to pay (a reduced price) for a replacement. The replacement would have a 3 month warranty.

If this Philips DVD player dies after just 16 months, why would I want to pay for another?

We received this as a Christmas gift. I'm not very patient when it comes to programming or adding cords to our tv but this was easy. It plays well and has never skipped. It is also very lighweight and slim so it fits neatly in out entertainment center....

dweezledap says "Cheap, Great, The best for the buck" about Philips DVD Player

dweezledap — Fri, 30 May 2008 06:15:44 GMT

The lower end line of Philips DVD players are the best on the market.
I have owned 2 in the last two years and let me tell you they play "everything"
If you are like me and have many foreign DVDs ( I was in the military and bought many DVDs overseas) these players are region free and will play your European and Japanese DVDs.
I have 8 children and backup my precious DVDs so my kids do not destroy the originals, they play too.

The best part is I can convert these backups to Dvix or Xvid format and put 4 to 5 movies on a single DVD. Guess what? They play too.

The most recent model I bought was a DVP 3960 that even boasts a HDMI upconverter so you can watch these DVDs on your HD TV with minimal quality loss.

What can I say? I love these DVD players. They run around $40 and so far the old one has lasted 2 years and is used every day.

Word of warning though, if you are the type of person who needs the best quality and the best definition … these players are not for you. These are...

beeperdo says "Too hard to figure out" about Philips DVD Player

beeperdo — Wed, 28 May 2008 22:43:23 GMT

I bought a Phillips DVDR 3505 /37 because I needed one with a built in tuner and was assured by the salesperson that this was the best unit to buy both for features and ease of use. The fact is this is easy to use if you want to watch movies on dvd's. It is so easy to use. I'ts also easy if you want to use the one button record. There are simple instructions for that. The problem is using the timer to record - this requires previous experience as a rocket scientist to accomplish. To begin with there is one botton for on/off/standby and this button is crucial to operating this machine. To watch a movie you must press stand by or on - who knows. If you have a program set on the timer you may delete that program by using the on/off/standby button. You may turn the unit on and all of a sudden you're back at intitial set up and the unit presets the channels again. Mine does the intial set up 2-3 times a week and I have no idea why. My thinking is that I am turning the untit off instead of turning......
