Medion 7in Portable dvd player £59.99

nemo183

I bought one of these Medion players before xmas - for about £120. It's excellent - also, comes with a 2 year Medion gtee. I had a small problem and their service department sorted it out quickly and well - at this price, it's a steal.

Don't forget, though, it offically only plays UK disks and you'll need the tweak (mentioned in this thread) to make it multiregion - which is very easy.

Prices seem to be coming down quickly on all these types of product - and that's great news!

Does anyone know how long the batteries last on these, please?

Received New DVD player at the weekend. Thankfully was a brand new replacement which made the 7 weeks wait worthwhile.

Hi, My son had one of those Dvd Players and it was faulty. After a few weeks when you open the Dvd player to watch the screen the picture would go all funny. Called Medion and they told me they were having a few problems with these. Returned player and still waiting for replacement 7 weeks on. Maybe we are just unlucky but i would be very careful. Good thing is it carries a 2 years warranty.

It's worth ringing around - I got two today from Micham Surrey for ......................wait for it £49.99 - they still had some left. Apparently next week they've got a Medion digital mini DV tape camcorder for £100 instead of £200.

Thanks to everyone for the tip.

Was this in Somerfield or Kwik Save? Did it scan at this price? Anybody else can confirm if they now scan at £49.99? Cheers.

Just to confirm that the battery life on the Medion is at least 3 hours, and probably a bit longer if listened to via headphones.

It does come with a car charging lead, but some were shipped with the wrong fuse, which can lead to the fuse breaking when 1st switched on. There are 2 solutions - 1) call Medion, request replacement - can take a while. 2) Unscrew plug in, exam fuse to see if it is broken. Ignore voltage (either 12v or 250v) , but note ampage. If marked "3 amps", take fuse to nearest electrical shop or small car parts dealer, and buy one of the same size rated for 5 amps - voltage can be either 12v or 250v.

Problem is that the 3 amp fuse can't supply the 28 watts of power at a constant load, and the five amp fuse can.

All this apart, it's still a great player!
