5.0 out of 5 stars Cant beat it for the price
Don't let the other reviewers 3 stars scare you. For the price this player is nice. I had a double din that went bad after 8 months so I decided to go with a flip out. I almost went with the Clarion that's going for just over $300 on here but I had to have the sd slot. Speaking of which, I cant vouch for the full sized SD because I only use micro sd and the full sized...

Don't let the other reviewers 3 stars scare you. For the price this player is nice. I had a double din that went bad after 8 months so I decided to go with a flip out. I almost went with the Clarion that's going for just over $300 on here but I had to have the sd slot. Speaking of which, I cant vouch for the full sized SD because I only use micro sd and the full sized adapter, but it works. It will also accept usb sdhc cards. Stuck my 8gig in and it recognized fine. Yes it plays avi movies perfectly. The screen did get stuck once on my usb drive when it was folding in. When u stick the usb in u have to make sure the rubber tab that covers the usb port on the dvd drive is moved over so it doesnt stick on top of ur thumb drive, or simply take it off. The manual is in English. I dont detect the Chinese translation the other guy did. The close button is actually a back space button and it does mention that in the manual. I understand how he may have mised that. U can push the open button to close it again or just use the remote. Its got a great picture definitely better than my last dvd player. The sound is nice, depending on ur system I suppose. Only thing that kinda bugs me is that u have to take the dvd out to mess with the video settings such as contrast and brightness. All in all i give it a 4 to 4 and a half review, but I couldn't make it a half star when I tried. Besides the other guy rated it too low at 3 stars. If u are on a budget grab this. You wont be disappointed

3.0 out of 5 stars Boss Audio BV9980RDS, January 6, 2009
This review is from: Boss Audio BV9980RDS 7-Inch In-Dash DVD Receiver with Motorized Flip-Out Widescreen/Touchscreen Monitor (Electronics)
Arrived quickly and pckaged well, the rest is not so great !
The touchscreen is basic functions only and not very intuitive, the product manual is also written in chinese or something and then translated ?
The close screen switch is inoperative on the screen panel, the SD card slot wont accept SD cards ! they come up as format not supported so you need a microSD in a SD card adapter then it works, not sure why but thats how this one is and if you have a USB inserted then beware the screen because it catches the rubber dust cover of the USB slot on the front panel.
In saying all that the pictures good and the sound is ok also, so for the money i suppose it could be considered acceptable but buy clarion or someone elses for a few bucks more and i am sure you will be better served.
