It supports resolutions up to 1920 ~ 1080 at 60 Hz for high-quality video (and audio is supported when provided by the source).

Great for 1080p, NOT a 4K cable.

Does exactly what you would expect it to up to 1080p.
Keep in mind this particular cable is NOT 4K so it will not work for 4K

A must have for 3D enthusiasts.
on August 22, 2023
Posted by: OldGuy
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very nice collection and history of the evolution of 3D! If I had to choose between this collection or the second collection, I would recommend this one over the second.
The second one is still a good collection.
Just a heads up, the very early footage of the capital at the very beginning was shot from quite a way away so the 3D is not that noticeable and there are a few clips of just silhouettes that didn't really work that well. But the other 90% of the content is very good.

More 3D Goodness!

I purchased this mainly for the collection of 3D images by Harold Lloyd. There is a slide show narrated by his granddaughter that is about 12 minutes long, very unique part of 3D history. This disc also includes an entire movie (Sword of Granada), I have not watched the entire movie yet, but the 3D was very pronounced in the scenes I watched. Among other things it has a promotional film for and early home movie camera that was also fascinating.

Excellent bang for the buck.

Excellent bang for the buck.
I got it on sale for $1249.00
Setup process was much quicker and simpler than I expected. It had much less bloat-ware installed than I thought it would. Mainly just a McAfee free trial, all the other softwares like Office 365 were just links to have the software or trials installed so didn't really have to uninstall the software just remove the links / shortcuts...
Performance is great!

Hayata, the Beta Capsule! It's the original 1966-67 "Ultraman" series, the UHF favorite in which ace pilot Hayata uses his Beta Capsule to become the giant alien superhero Ultraman, so that he and the other members of the Science Patrol can battle huge monsters across the Japanese landscape. Susumu Kurobe stars in the title role. With Akiji Kobayashi, Hiroko Sakurai.

Decent restoration of an old show from my youth.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice restoration of an old Kaiju series.
The steel book is a bit awkward getting disks in and out. I loved this as a child, but don't enjoy it as much as an adult.
:)
But it was worth $10 to relive my childhood for 3 or 4 episodes...

If you don't have it in HD, getting all three at once is a better price!

Prewash clothes right inside this top load washer using a built-in washing machine faucet to help remove loose soils or select the washing machine Presoak Option to soak and wash in one cycle. Once you choose a cycle, the washer impeller works to drive clothes from the outer rim to the center for the deepest clean.

Works great!

Washer is working great! Seems to use a lot less water than my old washer. Since this has no agitator it is much easier to get large bedspreads in and out. The cycles are a little longer than my old washer, but I imagine that is due to it using less water. It is fairly easy to operate.

Dani Ramos (Natalia Reyes) didn't know why she was being hunted by a shape-shifting killing machine (Gabriel Luna) from the future. She just knew that her survival rested with time-tossed cyborg warrior Grace (Mackenzie Davis), veteran robot fighter Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), and aging, assimilated T-800 InchCarlInch (Arnold Schwarzenegger). Return to the storied sci-fi franchise for producer/co-writer James Cameron co-stars Diego Boneta, Steven Cree, Edward Furlong; Tim Miller directs. 128 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English Dolby Atmos, French Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Spanish; deleted scenes; featurettes. Two-disc set.

Does it come with drain hose?

Yes, but, I actually used my drain hose as the new one wasn't quite as long as my old one, and this washer had the drain plug on the side furthest from my drain pipe.

Only at Best BuyKeep the music thumping during your commute with this JBL subwoofer. It can handle 250W of power with a peak of 1000W for booming sounds, and it reproduces a frequency range of 35Hz - 200kHz to capture extreme bass output. This JBL subwoofer is just 6.0625 inches deep for placement in tight places.Geek Squad~ Installation RecommendedVisit your local Best Buy store for more information.
 

When do these subs normally go on sale? Everyone keeps saying they are on sale for $30 but I haven’t seen anything

I got mine around Christmas last year.

Run your favorite Android apps with this unlocked BLU Vivo XI+ smartphone. The 6.2-inch curved notch display provides a wide-screen view of Full HD+ content, and it has an octa-core MediaTek processor and 4GB of RAM for smooth mobile multitasking. Connect to high-speed Internet via the Wi-Fi and 4G LTE support of this 64GB BLU Vivo XI+ smartphone.
 

How can I remove and delete some of the apps off the phone?

Go to "settings", then to "Apps" then select an app and click "Uninstall"
Not all apps can be uninstalled, your only option then is to "Disable"

There is conflicting information in the description about Verizon compatibility. Will this phone work on Verizon?

Yes, I got it to work with my Pre-Paid Verizon plan.
I bought this 12-1-2019 to use with my Verizon Pre-Paid plan.
I got it to work very easily, but not with the help of the Verizon owned Verizon store I went to (they tried it and couldn't get it to work, and said it wasn't compatible).
I was going to return the phone to Best Buy, but I decided to put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter that BLU includes with the phone.
When I put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter, the phone immediately gave me a message that it was connected to the Verizon Network, and the phone work fine. I can make and receive texts and calls and use the internet of course.
So in order for the BLU - Vivo XI+ with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) to work on the Verison Network you have to put the SIM card in the Micro SD slot using the SIM card adapter provided with the phone. So the down side is you can't add a SD card in this instance.
