Arafuna Mini DVD Players for TV, 1080P Region Free with Remote Control, Support HDMI/RCA/USB/TF Card, Small DVD Player with Last Memory Function

Whoever developed this DVD player obviously put some thought into it, or at least purchased first-rate electronics to squeeze into this tiny unit. It's not much bigger than a DVD itself, and comes with a HDMI cable, 4-connector 3.5mm to stereo AV output cable (yellow, red and white RCA plugs), a USB-C to USB type A patch cable, a USB charger that can double as a cell phone charger in a pinch, and a compact remote control (for which you'll need to supply 2 AAA batteries).Excellent picture quality and sound in both NTSC and PAL modes with both Region 1 and Region 2 DVDs. The video output seems better than average for upconverted DVDs, while the sound quality and volume are also top notch.One design feature that is particularly nice is that the on-screen notifications for repeat, A-B repeat, elapsed and remaining time display, etc. are located close enough to the center of the screen that you can still see all or most of the useful information if you have your TV configured with a zoomed aspect ratio to eliminate the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen when viewing widescreen DVDs.I'll be buying and testing another one of these players soon, since they will be getting scarcer as time goes on, and, like most folks, I have more money tied up in old, hard-to-replace DVDs than I will ever spent on replacement players at this point. Glad I purchased this player.

This is, legitimately, the WORST DVD player ever. Ever. Got everything plugged in and powered on and the only thing that would come up was a blue screen with the company's service email address displayed on it. Tried pressing the menu button and the only thing that showed on the screen was the "no" icon. Tried pressing the setup button and got the same thing. Also happened with play, stop fast forward, rewind, everything - only thing that displayed was the no icon. Turned the player off, waited a few minutes, then back on and same results.Turned the player off and then back on again. Sat there with the service email address on the screen while I flipped through the user manual. Read the entire thing twice, did a search online for more instructions and about five minutes later (no exaggeration) the DVD menu finally displayed on the screen. Well, the left half of the DVD menu displayed on the screen. The right side of the screen was just black. Tried to use the arrow keys on the remote to navigate the menu but only the "no" icon displayed on the screen. Tried pressing just the play button and also just received the "no" icon. Went back to searching the internet and all of a sudden, the movie started playing. Picture quality is horrible.I almost never return items to Amazon but, sadly, this has to go back. I wanted a small DVD player to actually play movies. Having to go through this nonsense every single time I want to pull out a DVD is too much hassle. There are plenty of other inexpensive, small players out there. I'd rather take my chances with one of them than keep wasting my time with this player.(Also, FYI, the measurements on the listing are accurate but the photo with the player in the hand is not an accurate representation of this player. It's doctored to make it appear smaller and thinner than it really is.)

I was searching high and low for a compact DVD player that could be powered by USB. The size and weight were additional important factors for me, because of how I wanted to mount the device. I ran across this ARAFUNA compact DVD player and was immediately intrigued and hit the "add to cart" button. This little guy punches above its weight class! I was very impressed with the built quality, ease of use, and the overall looks. The picture quality is pretty good, but is slightly lacking ... likely due to due to my TV and composite cable selection. The colors are great and the sound is good as well (minor static at higher volumes - again, TV?). Overall, I would highly recommend this device for folks looking for a small budget-friendly DVD player. As the subject of this review notes, I was pleasantly surprised.

After I received the re-ordered 2nd DVD player I found out why the first one may not have worked. It may not have been damaged even though the box was. I've always used a simple HDMI 2 port switch box between my DVD players and my TV so I could connect and go back and forth between two different HDMI sources. However this DVD player's video will not function properly unless connected directly to my TV. For some reason the video coming from the DVD player doesn't translate properly when channeled through the HDMI switch to my TV. So I used the provided AV jack and it works fine. The quality isn't quite as good as it would have been with the HDMI cable, but it's acceptable. I thought this might be helpful trouble shooting information for someone else.

The product proved to far exceed it's performance in terms of cost for the unit. I was impressed in terms of what it was able to play! I used HDMI with a Fire TV of 42" size. While watching I had to stop a number of times then return. It resumed exactly where I stopped. Of note the unit developed a malfunction that required me to contact customer service. My email response came quickly and suggested a number of possible solutions. When it became quite clear the unit had a issue. The replacement came within three days of my documentation! No issues with new unit. It's compact size makes it perfect for travel use in car and staying away on trips. It top loads and all buttons for function along left side. Works well for cd play in car via 3.5mini into aux input. Would buy other products from company.
