CNET.co.uk judgement:
The SD-P1600 is a cheap-and-cheerful portable DVD player that improves on the style of the SD-P1400 with a thinner, curvier body. However, the picture quality decrease is noticeable on the new model, with colours bleeding into each other and an extremely limited viewing angle. Fantastic AV performance might not be the main consideration when you're on the move, but there are better models on the market for the same price
