Can it play Blu-ray discs?

No. It plays DVDs, CDs and MP3s, plus files from USB drives and SD cards. Blu-ray discs will not work.

Does it need Wi-Fi to watch TV?

No. The built-in ATSC tuner picks up free over-the-air broadcast channels with an antenna. There is no Wi-Fi and no streaming apps.

Can I connect it to a bigger TV?

Yes. It has an HDMI output, so you can send video to a larger screen. Composite A/V output is also available for older TVs.

What can I play from a USB drive or SD card?

It reads MP3 audio and JPEG images from USB flash drives and SD/SDHC cards. It does not play video files from those sources.

Does it have a battery for travel?

It is designed as a portable unit, but check the box contents for the battery and charger. Many owners use it plugged in or with an optional power source.

Is it good for kids in the car?

It works well for disc and CD playback on trips, and the small screen suits one or two viewers. Sound is modest, so headphones through the 3.5mm jack are a better fit in a car.
