This product really has no manual at all, so you will want to read this review, because I'll explain exactly what it can and cannot do, and how to make it work. (Pictures Included)This boombox is more for video than for audio, so if you want something more for audio, then look for something else. If it is video you want, then you'll want this, because it can play video from DVD, USB, and HDMI. The DVD and HDMI are easy enough for you to figure out, but the USB port has everyone confused, because the product gives wrong information about what file types can be played. The Audio Folder says it can play mp3, wma, wav, and more, but in fact, it can only play mp3, and wav, only. The Picture Folder says it can play jpeg, bmp, and more, but in fact, it can only play jpg, only. The Video Folder says it can play mpeg2, mp4, avi, divx and more, but in fact, it can only play swf, and vob, only.So because of a manual that doesn't explain anything important, and how the product lied about what it can do, I cannot give this product 5 stars. I still gave it a high rating though, because vob video files are easy to make and they have DVD quality while also having the smallest memory. The vob files can be any length. They can be full length movies if you want. For a detailed list of what does and does not work with the USB port, see my attached pictures where I typed it up as a list.The bass button doesn't work, so don't expect that button to do anything. This does have an FM option, but the dial knob is too small for it to work like it should.See attached pictures for how the short USB extension cable looks. I highly suggest getting one of those cables so you don't have to worry about the carry handle breaking a USB stick.So how do you use this thing?Step One: Press the Power button on top.Step Two: Make sure volume is up and press the Source button(It will go through your options, Aux, FM, DVD)Step Three: Stop at DVDStep Four: Press the DVD button(It will go through your options, DVD, USB, HDMI)Step Five: Stop at USBStep Six: Use the remote controlNOTE: You can turn the screen off and on by pressing the Screen button. If the screen doesn't come on by itself, then you may have to press that button to turn it on.Can you use headphones? Yes, with the correct connections, but also limited in use. There is no headphone-out on this, but there is a left and right RCA-out on the back. So you could get an RCA audio-out to headphone jack connection, then a headphone splitter cable (so you can use more than one headphone), then a volume control cable (for each headphone to have their own volume control), then a splitter cable for headphone and microphone (if using headphones that combine the audio with the microphone, so only the audio is connected). However, the headphones hooked up like this, will only play audio from the DVD, USB, and HDMI inputs. Also, volume dial must be all the way down because the speakers will still put out audio as normal.Is there a carry case? Yes, this product is 17 L x 10 W x 7 H (Inches), so use these measurements when looking for a carry case. See attached pictures for what I used.Video quality? Looks great for most video, in the light and in the dark, but if you try to watch a movie on this where the movie is mostly filmed in the dark, then it won't be that visible, even after messing with all the screen settings to adjust the picture. I think the reason for that is mostly because the screen size is so small.Audio quality? Sounds great.Bluetooth? Yes and No. You can play music on this, using Bluetooth, but you cannot listen to music from it with Bluetooth headphones.HDMI? This is HDMI in only, so it can be used as a computer monitor (in case of an emergency, like if you have no other option for a computer monitor). If you do have any video games that use an HDMI connection for a video screen, then you can use this as a screen for video games also.

The price was amazing, with versatility in the different features, color and size of the boombox. I was so excited to get it, that I posted on social media how I got to listen to a CD I haven't heard in a while. Unfortunately the CD had a few scratches, so my loving uncle and aunt surprised me with a new one. That's when things began to go down hill with my purchase. Once I placed the brand new CD in, 20 minutes later, it began to skip! The sound quality and volume was INCREDIBLE but the spinning destroyed my new surprised gift. Then! I was moving it and bumped some furniture and the screen cracked! I have since returned it but I certainly want a better version to go camping. It's light weight, but doesn't feel durable. No thank you!

La verdad, me emocionó mucho la idea de Aiwa para esta radio. Inmediatamente supe que la usaría con un Fire Stick de Amazon y, en ese sentido, todo funcionó bien. Sin embargo, el detalle es que el sonido es esencialmente malo y la pantalla de muy baja calidad. La verdad, preferiría pagar más por un producto con esta idea, pero bien ejecutada.
