Gorgeous steelbook, must buy for Star Wars fans
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
Gorgeous steelbook, well worth the premium over the standard release. The discs themselves appear to be the same as the standard 4K release, but this steelbook really pops visually. Any steelbook collector or Star Wars fan would take pride in adding/displaying this steelbook.

Fantastic film, but the Blu Ray may suffice
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not sure if this 4K release adds much in the way of value added over the Blu Ray release, but I'm still happy to own the highest resolution version of this movie possible. I absolutely love the film itself, so I can look past the mediocre audio track on this release but if you already own the Blu Ray, you may be able to stand pat on that release and skip this one. If you have never seen the movie, then I would definitely suggest investing in this version.

Beautiful image quality and audio track!
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a stunning 4K disc; I personally enjoy Ridley Scott's films so having such a rich image only enhances the experience for me. If you're an audiophile, you'll love the Atmos audio track on this disc. The Martian Extended Edition sets up a very rich and vibrant sound stage and you'll enjoy the workout your setup gets with this movie. A definite must-have for 4K/film enthusiasts

Frenetic and fun with a great 4K transfer
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
Full disclosure: I'd somehow managed to get through the last 20+ years without watching this effort from Guy Ritchie so this was my first viewing of the movie. Sony rarely disappoints on their 4K transfers and I have to say I'm happy I waited for this release to watch the movie. The movie has a frenetic energy that really comes through with the pristine picture and is significantly abetted by the vibrant audio track. Fantastic disc to add to the 4K collection, you should not be disappointed.

Easy to use, sounds really good and ANC is solid
on January 4, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was very skeptical buying a purported high-end audio product from a non-traditional manufacturer of high-end audio products. I understand that Apple engineers solid technology products, and obviously pioneered the transition to pocket-sized digital audio devices and thus had experience with DACs and sound in general, but playback devices, and earbuds at that, are a tricky space to compete. Though I still prefer over-ear headphones for any serious sound design/editing work, I am genuinely impressed by the AirPods Pro after having used them for a couple weeks now. The effectiveness of the active noise cancelling totally demands that you get a good seal once the buds are in your ears. For me personally, I may need to buy aftermarket ear tips to get a more snug fit (tiny ear canals) but even with the provided ear tips (small, medium, large) I am finding the noise cancellation to be very effective. Pair that with solid low end and mid performance, and Dolby Atmos ("spatial audio") support and these things are winners so far. As much as some of us Windows/Android heads might hate to admit it, the forbidden fruit is quite adept at creating high-quality, easy to use products, after all :)

Gorgeous video, booming audio = reference 4K
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'll save you some unnecessary reading - if you're looking for a reference quality demo movie to take your 4K video or surround sound audio system for a spin, this is definitely a title you'll want in your library. Gorgeous video transfer, and booming audio track. Must have for 4K collectors!

Can a reticent Chase (Iain Armitage) overcome his bad experiences in the town and meet the challenge? Animated opus also features the voices of Marsai Martin, Tyler Perry, Jimmy Kimmel, Randall Park. 86 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

No need to yelp for help. Solid Video and Audio!
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a really nice looking Blu Ray with excellent pop; I wish the disc came in a 4K option, but the included digital code, when redeemed in iTunes, does provide a free upgrade to 4K. My kids loved the movie, and the video and audio quality is pretty impressive on this Blu Ray. All in all, a very satisfied lot here!

Solid, perhaps not spectacular transfer
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'd read a lot of professional reviews saying the video quality wasn't anything incredible. I hadn't previously seen the Blu Ray release of the movie, so I cannot speak to how much of an improvement this 4K release presents, but going in blind, it looked really good to me. Not a showcase film for HDR, but all in all, this was a really event presentation and I enjoyed the audio track as well. For the sale price I got it at, it was a no brainer.

Works as advertised, wish it wasn't necessary
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's unfortunate that the leading flagships from Apple and Samsung no longer retain native support for wired headphones that utilize the auxiliary connector. That said, this adapter wasn't too pricey and it does what it's advertised to do. Not much to complain about once you get past the fact that an adapter is needed at all to use a favorite pair of 'older' headphones you may be hanging onto.

The MagSafe Charger makes wireless charging a snap. The perfectly aligned magnets attach to your iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 13 or iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro and provide faster wireless charging.

15W of charging, just a tad bit pricey
on January 3, 2022
Posted by: Atif
Verified Purchase:Yes
I do think it's a little pricey for what it is, but if you want 15W of power for your newer iPhone, rather than the 7.5W most non-certified MagSafe chargers provide, this is really your best bet. The magnets are already built into the newer iPhones, so you get a snug snap while charging and you also get a nifty little animation when charging begins. No complaints from a functionality perspective, just wish it were a little cheaper
