The product is great. It works perfectly and the image quality is impressive. After using I wondered though if my $800 could have been better spent on a Laptop computer with a DVD PlayerOther than that it is the best out on the market.

I purchased the LX9 complete with cradle, external speakers and leather case – for a total of $800 in 2004. Until now I have been very pleased with it. However, the detachable built-in battery has just gone bad. Without it, you cannot play the unit at all – even with mains power ! Panasonic has helpfully discontinued making the battery. So my expensive investment is now quite useless !! All Panasonic is prepared to do is offer me a small discount to buy a new and inferior Panasonic unit with no speakers. My advice to all would-be buyers is : MAKE SURE PANASONIC PLANS TO KEEP MAKING THE BATTERY BEFORE YOU BUY ANY OF THEIR PORTABLE DVD PLAYERS !!! IF NOT – DON’T BUY !!! Sadly, Panasonic has become a company that no longer believes in customer support. I guess it got too big to care any more. So, in future I’m buying Sony !!

I wanted to buy my wife a portable DVD player and reviewed several models to include “hands-on” demos and the quality of the Panasonic easily beats them all. The number one feature to consider, of course, is picture quality and the LA-9 mimics a HD picture –truly amazing for such a small unit. The LA-9 is pricy but well worth the cost. We often take plane trips lasting 3-5 hours so it got even pricier as we also bought the optional battery pack for longer play and sound cancelling earphones. The cradle is a big plus as we use it to play DVDs through our kitchen TV. All in all, a VERY flexible unit with features galore for either travel or at-home use. If you can afford it, this is the one to get.
