The monitor is small to say the least, and hard to see in bright light, the outside package was completely destroyed lucky for me the hard plastic bubble pack around the screen was intact. Overall I was not happy with the screen or with the condition of the delivered package.
Save your money I don't recommend buying the screen.

Great product!

Really nice product. I bought it on sale on toys'r us for $49.95. Cudos to the developers. Yes, the screen is tiny, but so what. I opened the xbox and soldered the power wire into the box, so I didn't need an extra adapter. Now I can use it in my car (12v-220v converter in the car) and in my cabin etc. Kids love it. The sound is acceptable, and 2 headphone jacks is nice. So, since my xbox is modified, I now have a fully portable dvd player/media center/music box, gamebox in one package ready to go anywhere. Now I will buy the 7" screen version, should look even nicer.

You Can Use A Portable DVD Player!!!

I have a 7" portable DVD player and I have it hooked up in my truck. The key to buying a portable DVD player is that you must buy one that has the option to accept video input. Then you goto Walmart or Radio Shack and buy three female-to-female RCA connectors. BANG... you have a portable DVD player and a Screen. You can now hook up anything that has RCA connectors: Sat., Cable, VCR, Gamecube, PS2, etc...

lisen to everyone else

Take a look at the reviews for this one. All of them.

Those that are good are most involve necessity, and a willingness to accept subpar quality.

This is not a good product -- maybe worth $50, but not more. The resolution is nothing short of horrible. The sound is fine, especially through the headphone jack, but i could not distinguish the walls from the floor when i tested this with Morrowind. I am not just talking about details here, i am talking about major graphical display haze and fuzz.

Really, you are betting off buying a small TV monitor. The sound may not be as good, but at least you can see the game.

Caveat emptor! (let the buyer beware, especially if you can't return it)

do not buy

Ok here is the news I have. Of corse the screen isn't good for the car. This device doesn't come with a car adapter. How do I know is because the review never tells a LIE. Anybody should know that the Xbox is the biggest game system. It's true that the Xbox is the biggest and smartest and great graphics. Another thing you can't do is that you can't buy a portable DVD for the Xbox. Any person would got that idea from a 3 year old or a 10 year old boy or girl.

For those of you in the military and know what it's like to be stuck on duty, the Portable screen is the answer to being soo damn bored. every time i'm on some type of duty where I just sit there, I can just pull the XBOX Screen out and either play or watch DVD movies. Definatly worth the buy.

No Warranty - Poor Support - Buy a TV

What a great concept - to bad this company cares more about profit than product quality. I have owned ours for less than 116 days - and within that period it just DIED! That's less than 4 months and a $169.99 product dies... no lights, no warning - just dead.

The saddest part is that they carry absolutely no warranty! Nobody would buy a product in this day and age without a warranty - I mean, you have to figure when you open the box they'll be warranty information - nope! It's like pulling teeth!

Buy a good Portable DVD with input for the XBox - or anything else external. Don't get suckered in by the cheap price - you definately get less than what you paid for!

Run!!!

No problems and great for the car

When my son said he wanted to buy this I didn't think it was a good idea. However when he saved the money I let him buy the screen. Boy was I wrong! This thing works great for trips, my kids can watch DVD's and play games while we are on the road and in a hotel. If you want a 27" screen then you will be disappointed but that's not what this screen was designed to replace.
Only complaint, I wish the thing had a padded storage bag so we could take the screen off when it is not needed without fear of damage.
