I bought the Nextbase SDV17-A 3 weeks ago to watch films on my weekly commute on the Eurostar and I am very pleased with it. I think the tablet design is very stylish.
The screen is not as high a resolution as I had hoped but it is more than adequate for the task. It can sometimes struggle with displaying sufficient contrast, subtle hues or rapid movement, but I think that is to be expected. (I am watching it as I type this review!).
The sound from the stereo speakers at the front is, of...

Ok ladies and gents, here's something we've needed for a looong time. The Nextbase SDV17-A Tablet DVD Player is a portable DVD player in the form of a tablet. It's compatible with practically everything, has an optional Lithium Ion battery that lasts about 3 hours, looks great and is quick too.
It has nice options like being able to watch the picture upside down, brightness controls, etc. It has a nice remote control that comes with it that's about the size of a credit card. It also has a...
