Better than the 4K Ultra HD
on November 13, 2021
Posted by: NotoriousEGB
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of those kinds of movies where I prefer the Blu-ray over the 4K Ultra HD for the following reasons:
1. CGI looks more CGIish in 4K. CGI Looks better on Blu-ray.
2. The Blu-ray has a Dolby Atmos track (same as 4K).
3. It was $20 cheaper than the 4K.

The Joy-Con Charging Dock is the easiest solution for charging your Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Controllers. Charge 4 Joy-Con Controllers at a time for multiple players, or keep an extra pair charged for single players to switch out. Simply slide the Joy-Con Controllers down and wait until each charge LED turns green!

Average TV, Good for Wide Viewing Angles
on November 13, 2021
Posted by: NotoriousEGB
Verified Purchase:Yes
It’s ok. The only reason I got it was because it works well in rooms with wide viewing angles. But the webOS TV is not fun at all and pretty inferior compared to other operating systems.

Gorgeous looking fridge and works well. Keeps my drinks cold, even in my very warm Arizona garage. If you have to really make sure you close the door all the way otherwise it pops open, other than that no complaints.

Type comfortably and navigate the Web with ease using your Microsoft Surface Pro. Well-spaced, backlit keys and a large trackpad make it simple to input data or type up notes, even in dim lighting. The Surface Pro Type Cover adjusts to virtually any angle and clicks easily into place, transforming your Surface Pro from tablet to laptop.

Celebrate the 25th anniversary of this beloved masterpiece starring Johnny Depp and directed by Tim Burton. Depp delivers the performance that launched his career, as Edward, an irresistibly charming creation with razor-sharp metal hands and a heart of gold. Edward's lonely life in a Gothic castle changes forever when he meets a kindhearted Avon Lady (Dianne Wiest), who takes him to a pastel paradise known as Suburbia. Thanks to his fantastic talents, Edward becomes a neighborhood sensation, but when he falls in love with Kim (Winona Ryder), he must go to extraordinary lengths to protect her.

This movie is better than what I remember from when watching it in the 90’s. It’s aged pretty well. The audio needs an upgrade, other then that this blu-ray looks real nice.

Let~s start with a quick round up. This is the best all-round TV. Hands down. Movies, gaming, sports... it~ll handle anything you can throw at it and look great doing it (try not to actually throw stuff, it~s just a figure of speech). No surprise when it~s got 4K resolution, Quantum Dot Color, Dolby Vision HDR, 120Hz native panel, Full Array Local Dimming Zones, anti-glare panel and powerful 1,500 nit peak brightness. What does all that mean? It~s like gazing at the sun melting into the Mediterranean Sea from Ibiza~s coolest bars. But sitting on your couch. At home. Then for gaming, we added Variable Refresh rate, Auto Low Latency Mode and FreeSync Premium to make the most of the latest generation gaming platforms. Even if you don~t know what half this stuff means, one look at the picture and you~ll want it.

Not good for Apple/Sonos users
By NotoriousEGB
Amazing picture quality for this price range, it’s better than my $1800 Samsung. It would easily get 5 stars from me if it worked better with Apple TV and the Apple+ app.
I have a brand new Apple TV 4K (2021) and Sonos Arc to go along with the new Hisense. I’m a heavy apple user, so I downloaded the Apple TV+ app. After about 5-10 seconds, the content freezes regardless if it’s in HD or not. The Apple app is brand new to the Android TV, so I figure it will work someday in the future, however I didn’t want to wait that long so I hooked up the Apple TV 4K, and there are some problems. There are MAJOR audio delays when watching anything that is not in Dolby Atmos (which is like 75% of everything). I tried using every settting from every device, and the problem persists. I’m assuming this problem is a Hisense issue and not a Sonos or Apple problem, because it all works just fine on my Samsung TV. I hope this issue gets resolved soon, because I LOVE everything else about the TV. But if it doesn’t get resolved in the next 15 days I may have to return the TV.
Firmware update
July 9, 2021
I have been in contact with Hisense. They have assured me that a new firmware update will be released next week that should resolve the problem. Keeping my fingers crossed.

The three standmount speakers - 705 S3, 706 S3, and 707 S3 work best when positioned in their ideal listening position and at the correct height with the elegant Bowers & Wilkins FS-700 S3 stands that handle both tasks perfectly and are available in complementary black or silver finishes. Their upgraded design includes a subtle curvature to each column to match the front baffle of each speaker, a bright metal detail running up that column to further accent their premium design, and fillable columns that can be mass-loaded for outstanding stability and quietness. Features cable management to avoid wire clutter across your living room floor, ensuring a cleaner look. Includes an option of securely bolting each model of speaker to the top-plate of the stand, ensuring optimum safety
 

Will the bolt holes lineup with the B&W CM1 or CM5 speakers?

Immerse yourself in movies and games with these SVS Prime Elevation home theater speakers. Their frequency range of 55Hz - 25kHz adds height effects to thrilling movie scenes, and their multi-angle wall brackets provide flexible placement options. Install this pair of multipurpose SVS Prime Elevation home theater speakers as surround sound or LCR components to suit your space.
 

How will these sound as front height speakers (not mounted to wall but upside down on a high book shelf so that it’s angled down, about 18 feet away from listening position) to complete a 7.1 configuration? Will it sound good with Atmos?
