Great Multi-format disc player
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent multi-format disc player. Good ergonomics, user friendly interface, gorgeous image quality. Using it entirely for disc playback. The on-board streaming apps are better served by a dedicated streaming device.

Entertaining "Alien" Wannabe
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an involving, somewhat gripping alien-on-the-loose movie with a good cast and production values. As with all such movies some suspension of belief and logic systems are necessary for the action to have its impact. It doesn't embarrass itself when compared to similar films of the genre. It's hard not to see the Ridley Scott technigue in some camera angles and camera movement. However, there IS a certain repeatability factor making it worth a purchase if the price is right.

The Best Star Wars....
on June 11, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
From my perspective, this is the best of all Star Wars movies. Action, humor, engaging characters (especially, the modified imperial hero droid) and a story that builds and feeds directly into "A New Hope." The 4k image is a little dark but a slight boost of HDR helps substantially and the soundtrack, also, needs help with the volume.

Closing out the Original Trilogy
on June 11, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Star Wars fans should not be disappointed with this final installment of the "trilogy". The 4K image is dark requiring a boost of the HDR setting of my projector but once done it's a thrill ride of special effects. The soundtrack is somewhat subdued so don't be surprised if you find you need to crank the volume.

A Suitable Tribute to the Shuttle Program
on June 11, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Mostly good but just short of great 3D. The IMAX origins of the film at times transfer beautifully while at others it falls short on anything less than a 50 foot screen such as when the image is "boxed" center screen. Colors are gorgeous. Narration is informative. The soundtrack has good punch for the Shuttle blast-offs.

A Fitting Dedication
on June 11, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Gritty, shocking, touching, action packed and real to boot. A dedication to the soldiers, their camaraderie, their resourcefulness and bravery against overwhelming odds. The 4K image is more than a few notches above the standard HD presentation that I saw on Netflix. The soundtrack explodes shortly after the movie starts and rarely lets up.

Literally Alliterative
on June 11, 2021
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Hugo Weaving's delivery of his lines as V are well worth repeatability particularly after his first meeting with Evey (Natalie Portman). His handling of the alliteration is letter perfect and how he conveys through voice, a slight cock or bow of his head alone brings his character's motives and feelings to the fore. It's a graphic novel brought to film about a superhero with tons of panache. The 4K image is superb and the soundtrack is equally effective.

Fred's Review Comments
It's the year 2029, and much of the world's mutant population has succumbed to a genocidal, man-made virus. As a down-and-out Logan (Hugh Jackman, in his final appearance as the character) comes to terms with his failing healing factor, he and an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) must protect Laura (Dafne Keen)-a young genetically bred mutant with powers similar to Logan's-from the evil organization that created her. With Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant.

Great movie and to me, one of the best in the XMen franchise. Awesome final outing for Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Patrick Stewart at Professor X. Great story and acting. Highly recommend.

Purchased several weeks ago. Stopped working this morning. No amount of Bluetooth pairing, connecting, reconnecting, rebooting, reinstalling can solve it. Keep getting message to try reconnecting. Now outside return period. Will go to Logitech website for support on manufacturer 1 year warranty.

Does this have a direct ethernet port?
The specifications for inputs/outputs do not list Ethernet port but the photos seem to show a RJ45 port quite clearly, which presumably is for Ethernet connection. I have one of these laptops on order. When I placed the order in-store the sales rep pointed it out to me in the photo.

I bought a Roku Streaming Device from Amazon for an older TV that only has A/V Ports and the program that I choose will come on and then after 15 seconds or so the signal cuts out completely. I tried everything and nothing works why? The tv has no HDMI.

Hi, They actually did not directly answer my question earlier. My question is, does the Roku Ultra have a "ZOOM" feature on it to expand the picture that will fill the screen?" I have an older TV with HDMI but the Roku's that I have don't have "ZOOM".
