Panasonic Portable DVD Players

The Bottom Line: The Panasonic DVD-LS83 is a solid-performing portable DVD player, though you may be able to find a similar player for a cheaper price.

Specs: DVD player, Portable, Stereo, Black, 2.2 lbs

The Bottom Line: The Panasonic DMP-B15 is the world's first portable Blu-ray player that can function as a standalone player, too, but ultimately it has too many caveats and costs too much.

The Bottom Line: The Panasonic DVD-LS86 delivers some of the longest battery life we've seen in a portable DVD player--though not quite as long as Panasonic claims.
