Over the past few years, the people over at Panasonic have released quite a large number of DVD players, including here a few portable models. And the most advanced version of the whole bunch is the DVD-LX110, released back in the first half of 2006, a device that provides just about everything one might expect from such an item, albeit at a rather high price tag.

The display is one of the main selling points provided by any product of this type, so the DVD-LX110 has been equipped with an 11-inch TFT LCD panel. However, the device provides some other interesting features as well, as for example three built-in stereo speakers, as well as rechargeable battery pack that can provide just about enough "juice" for around 6 hours of continuous playback.

It's also important to note the fact that this high-end portable DVD player has been equipped with a few very interesting and useful video and audio processing features. Thus, the device incorporates a video D/A converter (108MHz/12-bit), as well as an audio D/A Converter (192kHz/24-bit). Moreover, it features a built-in MPEG noise reduction feature, multi re-master (for high quality audio reproduction), built-in Dolby Digital Surround sound decoder (2 channels) and built-in DTS Surround Sound Decoder (also 2 channels).

Additionally, the device offers a cinema viewing mode, an advanced VSS surround system, as well as headphone surround and a dialogue enhancer. Furthermore, it ensures high-speed and smooth scanning (5 speed up to x200).

Panasonic's portable DVD player is extremely versatile, as it can can play back many different prerecorded DVDs, including DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, DVD-RAM/-R/-R(dual layer)/-RW3 and DVD+R/+R(dual layer)/+RW3 discs. Furthermore, it's compatible with a wide range of audio discs/files, namely MP3s, CDs, CD-R/RW5 discs, and WMA files.

Although it's a portable DVD player, the DVD-LX110 also incorporates other connectivity options as well, namely an SD card slot. Furthermore, it can also be hooked up to any HDTV display, as it incorporates 2 video outputs, a digital audio output, a 2-channel audio output, as well as a headphone jack.

As expected from a top-range model, the DVD-LX110 is not exactly cheap, as it retails for around 600 US dollars, which, nevertheless, is a rather high price, taking into account the fact that, after all, portable DVD players are not exactly the hottest portable players around anymore.
