note that battery life is specified at minimum backlight ; i ran mine for 5 hr 25 min , then i recharged even tho it was still going. i imagine those who got 4 hr. were using the default backlight setting.

Average Battery Life is about 4 hours. The product description, (That MOST people seem to ignore), is "UP TO 5 Hours." 5 Hour Battery Life IS NOT Guaranteed. On a FULL charge, battery lasts 4 to 4.5 hours.

I am not sure of the battery life, but I have watched two movies consecutively a fee times. I am sure this dvd player will meet your needs

Our does not last a full 5 hours but it comes close, at least 4 plus. We typically do road trips so the car power plug comes in handy.

I haven't done a test (like running movies for hours to clock the battery life), but I would say about 6-7 hours of use. I use it a lot, but only need to charge the battery every 2 days or so. No battery gets used when it's off, either (I know that sounds silly) - for example, I had charged it fully and the. Had it in my bag for 3 days before taking it out to use it, an the battery was still charged to 100%. So far, great battery life. Hope that helps.

I haven't tried it on a plane.....honestly I dont use it as much as I thought I would have for the simple reason is.....I'm not really happy with it. It doesn't keep a charge, it takes a long time to start up, the resolution is not that well, sometimes it doesn't respond when you try to do something on it, and so on! I'm not that kind of person to complain, but it would maybe be a good starter for a kid! Hope my answer helped you!

I don't have a definite answer for you- but I can say that we took it on a 5.5 hour flight using it on and off throughout the flight and the battery lasted the whole time.

The battery life is aproximately 4,5 hours. I have seen 2 movies without recharging.

I wish I could give you an answer. We purchased this for watching movies in the car during commutes. So far it hasn't gotten much use so I don't know how much battery life it has. I wish I could be of more assistance. Kim

If you're not playing videos battery life can be up to six or seven hours, at high energy out put the battery life falls to three or four hours.

I bought the tablet for a friend as a gift and she seems to love it. I personally have a high end Toshiba tablet, and when I realy use it the battery only last 2 to 3 hours, so Im thinking for a tablet, 2 hours isn't that bad.

27 hours is a long time, there are several players that you can buy spare battery's for but I chose this one for it's functions, picture and reliability. I believe Panasonic is a good brand, I had one for 4.5 years before I bought this one for Blue-Ray and we still use it, they make a DVD-LS86 that has a 13 hour battery and you could get a spare battery for that model for around $52. I know that's only 26 hours.

Hi, if you use it to play movies, it can last about 1 hour. If you use it to play music or photos. It can last about 2-3 hours. But, please don't worry, there are chargers for this dvd player.

I watched a couple movies on an international flight, no problem. So far I've never run it all the way down, but I'd estimate it's good for 7 hours or so of moderate activity. You aint gonna do much better than that for the price!

I'm not sure of the actual time, but its better than any other DVD player we've had. It ran 45 minutes straight, then 45-60 minutes, than about 90 minutes than again 45 minutes. All, without charging, just turning off between use. The player is great. Requires remote for volume chane (that's the only way we could do it). FYI: only negative, case is thin and useless for back of car chair head rest. We configured it with bungy cords and a sheet of plastic.

I have never used it past 3 hrs and there was no problem ...The company says a full charge can play for 5 hrs .. With a lot more hrs standby.

Wow thats crazy, my daughter uses hers for 6 to 7 hours straight, on netflix,youtube,games or apps. She doesnt put it down, she does EVERYTHING on it and only has to fully charge it at night before going to bed, that takes a couple hours though, at least 2 but not sure. If yours is only good for 3 hours thats a big problem , thats not even half of how long its supossed to go, usually when a product says the battery lasts a certain amount its usually not even close to that but I was very surprised when ours actually lasted the 7 hours it promised, and Im telling you its on streaming videos and movies for the hole 7 hours and it has never shut down,the lowest it got was 8% and than it took hours to fully charge it again.

No problem, it is a very nice player, nice picture, and it will go for 6 hrs or better, hoped that helped, enjoy flight....,
