Overview

Measuring just 6.5 x 7.8 x 1.7 inches and weighing 1.8 pounds, the Craig CVD401a is a compact Blu-ray disc player that outputs 1080p Full HD video through a single HDMI connection.

Its small footprint makes the CVD401a better suited to a bedroom shelf or secondary TV than a full home theater rack. HDMI is the only listed output, so a television without an HDMI input will not be able to use it. Resolution caps at 1080p, matching most non-4K TVs already in circulation.

Who it's for

Fits buyers who want a small, single-purpose Blu-ray player for a second TV. Less useful for anyone needing RCA output for an older television, since HDMI is the only connection listed.
