RJTech PVR1100 MPEG4 Mini Video Recorder Review
by SKYMTL     |     May 2, 2008

Packaging and Accessories


The RJTech PVR1100 comes in an unassuming black box with white highlights which from the front, seems like it can be used for any MPEG4 video recorder on the market. There are indications that this recorder / player is able to be used for recording video for nearly any type of portable device which includes the Sony PSP, Game Boy, Video iPod and any Smart Phone with an expansion card slot.

Meanwhile, the back of the box contains a bit more specific information about the unit. This includes a quick setup diagram as well as compatibility information and recording time information.


The interior packaging is quite plain but it protects the recorder quite well while keeping the box size to a minimum which should prompt a sigh of relief from all of you who don’t want to pay a fortune for shipping. The PVR1100 is nestled inside a protective cocoon of cardboard and additionally wrapped in plastic film in order to prevent scratches from marring its glossy finish. All of the connectors and accessories are pushed to the side while the manual resides at the very bottom of the box.


With this unit you get the bare minimums in terms of accessories but what is included works quite well for a low-priced product. You get a generic remote, a pair of composite to 3.5mm in/out cables, a “Suggested Recording Mode” sticker, a CD version of the instruction manual and finally the instruction manual itself.

Special mention has to be made about the instruction manual because it is much better than what we expected with a product such as this. Usually, we see a small 10-page instruction manual to cut down on costs while the manufacturer suggests you visit their website for the FULL manual. Well, with the PVR1100 RJTech must be commended since they not only included a full printed manual but an electronic version as well. There are a few somewhat glaring spelling and grammar errors which is to be expected with the translation from Chinese to English but all in all it is extremely well written and easy to understand. Bravo.


Since the PVR1100 is quite small and doesn’t need that much power, there was no need to include an overly large power brick with it. Thus, the actual plug is a standard-type affair which you are probably used to seeing if you have owned a cell phone within the last five years.
