Avengers Endgame has an incredible UHD transfer. Light grain is noticable. All channels encompass the viewer in a cocoon of immersive sound, most notable during the battle at the rubble of the SHIELD HQ
Colors are vibrant, but the majority of the movie takes place in the dark. Details are there with incredible use of the High Dynamic Range.

Sad that this was not included and is so expensive

Verified Purchase:Yes
I recently upgraded the entire family to be Samsung Galaxy Note 10s, and while the phones are a nice improvement in technology Samsung opted to remove the conventional headphone jacks from the new models.
We found this not to be a show stopper (I myself am a wireless earbud guy, but my wife and kid are not), but are extremely disappointed that Samsung did not include at least one USB C to headphone adaptor with each of their $1K phones.
It is inconsiderate that customers are forced to obtain an accessory to use their state of the art phone with the many pairs of headphones existing in their home, and insulting that Samsung embeds proprietary circuitry so that a customer cannot buy a simple, cheap adaptor (received a notification that a cheaper $5 product was incompatible ...it is a simple CORD!).
This loyal Samsung costumer, having spent nearly $3K on new cell phones had to Samsung brand purchase adaptors for his family to the tune of an extra $45!
Shame on you for becoming Apple Samsung!

All the action. All the sound. ...none of the lip-

Fun & loud, nothing beats the classic giant monster movie. ...except for perhaps American produced remakes.
Film grain is light, audio is immersive and active in all channels.
Black levels and details are what you would expect.
It's just not as fun as the true originals.

Get off of my PLANE ...in 4K

Dolby Atmos audio places the viewer in the middle of the action. Blacks are solid and inky, resolution exhibits light film grain but excellent resolution. HDR allows for great clarity, and amazing shadow detail. Colors are somewhat muted, but I suspect by director's choice.

I DO NOT STAND BY IN THE FACE OF ...AWESOME 3D!
on August 2, 2019
Posted by: SpenceJT
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love this movie, and the look and quality of this movie so much I went back and purchased the steelbook release, and gifted the standard 3D/4K release to a co-worker.
This is one of title to seek out and purchase! James Cameron & Co have crafted an action-filled world filled with stunning sights and amazing sounds!
This release has it all!
The 4K/UHD media is nothing short of HDR visual splendor and Dolby Atmos Audio perfection
The 3D media brings with it, picture quality bordering upon that of UHD, but with the added, encompassing heightened reality that only 3D can bring! The only downside on on the 3D media is that it does not appear to include Dolby Atmos Audio, which would have made this PERFECTION!
...then there is the standard 1080p 2D Blu-ray, which, if you have read my quick review of the 3D media, is just like it, ...only boring and flat, making me feel sorry for those who do not appreciate quality 3D presentations or those who missed out on the opportunity to land a television which supports both UHD as well as 3D formats.
4K/UHD, 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and a UHD Digital Copy all for just under $30?
What are you waiting for!? BUY THIS TITLE!

The HELLBOY you say!?

This movie, while I still prefer the original Ron Perlman in the part, was nowhere near as bad at what critics would have you believe.
I would hazard a guess, and state that the fans of Perlman, effectively torpedoed this attempt, which is too bad, because David Harbour's take on the character was spot on.
Color are vibrant but slightly muted, which fits with the overall tone of the film. Grain is present but not at all distracting.
This is a fine re-boot.

Take the excitement of surround lighting to the next level with the Philips Hue Play gradient lightstrip. This LED strip flawlessly blends multiple colors of light at the same time, mimicking the content on the entire screen for an immersive, full-room entertainment experience unlike any other. Hue Bridge and Hue Play HDMI Sync Box required, not included.
 

Planning to upgrade a 75 inch TV to either a 90 or 100 inch projection screen. Leaning toward the 90 inches as I know that the 75 inch lightstrip is rated to be used on 85 inch displays. Any success with photos?

Can you upload 2d and 3d videos from your computer onto the quest in a folder? Can you change viewing options and angles for playback?

Yes you can load videos for playback in virtual theaters. I am unsure about changing angles. I doubt it.

Hey I’m looking at buying a quest but is it worth getting 128 or 64. I’m looking to buy to play with my friend in Texas. So is it possible to play with someone across the country. Thanks for answering.

Memory is not expandable. That said, the apps are not huge, but if you intend to download movies, or (like me) horde a large library of installed apps, it would be advised to spring an extra $100 for double the storage.

Doubling the storage will also give a higher resale value, should a time come in the future where you would consider selling it and upgrading.

When your in a game, do one of the controllers move off into the distance by itself?

No. If you are experiencing this, your headset is losing tracking of your touch controller.

This can be due to ambient lighting overpowering the sensors of the head unit making it difficult for it to see and track the IR emitters from the controllers.

It could also be batteries in the controllers getting weak.

CAN A 6 YEAR OLD FIT IN THE HEAD GEAR ??

This depends on the size of your six year old.

The Oculus Quest is not recommended for children under the age of 13. Add to this, that most six year olds do not understand the concept of value, so any use should be closely supervised so as not to damage a $400+ device.

...also something to be considered is the developing mind of a child, and if it should be exposed to virtual reality experiences at such a young age.

Not judging. Just pointing out things to consider. The decision is yours.

I want to use Quest for my VR Fine Art Painting project. Do I need any additional hardware or software to paint, export and import my projects? Can I use Google Tilt Brush app in 64 GB Quest device? Can I directly upload my artwork to Google Drive/FB.com?

Check out Tilt Brush. It includes a variety of brushes, textures, and allows you to work in a 3 dimensional space, resizing, and moving the art around, zooming in to add detail, rotating it to add color and texture. It is very cool, and there are many videos on YouTube.
