Great Protection with Minimal Flaws

My wife likes the bumper. It does protect the watch, but it also adds a slight bit of size to it and due to the silicon it has a tendency to snag on long sleeves. Still, she would recommend this product.

Amazing Package for Recent WWII Classic
on December 5, 2020
Posted by: IndyTim
Verified Purchase:Yes
Based on true events, this film is amazing. I have yet to watch the 4K UHD disc, but I have seen the film and I hear that the 4K UHD presentation and the Dolby Atmos is amazing, if not reference quality. I picked up the Steelbook and I am glad I did. The artwork is truly great and I will be proud to display it in my collection.

Excellent in 4K!
on September 16, 2020
Posted by: IndyTim
Verified Purchase:Yes
First, this is one of the most gorgeous Steelbooks. Slide off the provided plastic slipcover and underneath is a matte metallic paint colorful image of the ghost that wraps around the back. It's a true display piece.
Now, for the picture quality. Sometimes 2D animation doesn't benefit much from HDR and the highlights seem to alter the original intent of the material. Not so here. It is just enough of a bump to make the highlights give the image a more three-dimensional appearance. I compared this to the recent 25th anniversary Blu-ray and this is quite an improvement. The Blu-ray seems muddy in comparison. Believe me, if you want to see this film in its best presentation, and you should because the art is incredible, this is the disc to own. Speaking of the art, there are special features on the 4K disc, including a look at the backgrounds used in the film.
Obviously, I highly recommend this release.
Credit to Best Buy for the quick delivery. I opted for standard shipping. I ordered early in the morning and the item arrived the next day! I was overjoyed.

The film that started the "summer blockbuster" trend, director Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Peter Benchley's novel is a masterpiece of action and suspense. The New England resort town Amity Island is terrorized by a man (and woman)-eating great white shark, and it's up to the local police chief (Roy Scheider), a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss), and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) to stop the feeding frenzy. With Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton; features a classic score by John Williams. 124 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English Dolby Atmos, DTS HD 7.1 Master Audio, DTS Surround mono, French DTS HD High Resolution Audio 7.1, DTS 5.1, Spanish DTS 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Spanish; featurettes; deleted scenes; outtakes; storyboards; photo gallery; theatrical trailer; 44-page booklet. Two-disc set.

Somewhat disappointed
on September 10, 2020
Posted by: IndyTim
Verified Purchase:Yes
JAWS is a classic. No doubt. I hadn't seen it in years. I did enjoy rewatching it, and I have little doubt that this 4K UHD presentation is the best it has ever looked. My disappointment is perhaps due largely to the glowing reviews online from professionals who adore the film. For them, seeing it look so clean and detailed was enough, and deserving of high praise. What I found was that the HDR was lacking here. It looked like another good transfer, but lacking HDR specular highlights. Maybe it wasn't graded at a very high nit level, or the highlights were not bumped in order to attain the original theater-like presentation. If that were the case, then a 4K HDR presentation only brings minor improvements over a 1080p Blu-ray since the resolution doesn't make that much of a difference to most people given the size of their display and the distance they sit from it, along with their visual acuity. Some color improvements could be gained, but that's it. Don't get me wrong. It looks good. It probably is an improvement over the 1080p Blu-ray, but not a huge one. Still, at the price point, and for the bonus features, it's not a bad deal, especially if you don't own the previous Universal 1080p Blu-ray disc.

One of the best war films ever!

Posted by: IndyTim
Verified Purchase:Yes
Some saw this film as a bit of a gimmick. But it is a true gem. Telling the story in this manner was a bold choice and the filmmakers truly challenged themselves by doing so. I feel I get more out of it and appreciate the technical achievement the more times I watch it.
Presented here in 4K with HDR and Dolby Atmos, it is a reference-level presentation. Highly recommended.

The BBC produces some of the best nature documentaries, from the Planet Earth and Blue Earth series to Dynasties. All take a look at the struggles and beauty of nature, as well as the impact humans have had on ecosystems and the ongoing impacts of climate change have had on the earth and the species of our planet.
Seven Worlds, One Planet is another quality release presented here in beautiful 4K HDR. No Dolby Vision, but it looks great. Dolby Atmos immersive audio fills your room and you will easily feel as though you are in the middle of the amazing environments.

My Wife Loves It!

My wife wanted a fitness tracker and asked to look at Apple Watch. I expected her to decide to return it just because she and I don't like to spend money on things we don't need or use. But she loves it! She found that it helps her track her workouts, steps, etc., which is exactly what she wanted. Plus, she gets the iPhone integration to managed calls and texts, as well.

Finally! In HD!

Thank goodness we finally got this wonderful series in HD. The DVD box sets didn't even appear to be remastered. They were just slapped onto DVD. There were jaggies and they did not present the series well. Now, that has changed. The series looks way better. That is great because the animation is wonderful. This is one of the best North American animated series of all-time. Ditch the DVDs and get this Blu-ray set if you're a fan.

Amazing special effects and a furry sense of humor highlight this Joe Dante scareshow about L.A.

Once there, White finds the Colony is home to a host of strange characters, who all seem to be vicious werewolves. John Sayles loosely adapted the Gary Brandner novel; with Christopher Stone, Patrick Macnee, Kevin McCarthy, John Carradine. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Worth the upgrade to 4K!
By IndyTim
Absolutely worth the upgrade to 4K. I have the previous Blu-ray from Scream Factory and I wasn't sure a 4K upgrade would benefit this film much. Boy, was I wrong. The picture is very pleasing. Film grain is intact but not heavy. The reds and lights of the opening scene pop and create a picture with more depth. Details can be seen in faces, clothing, and the effects. Oh, the effects. Though little of the werewolves is shown, what we get looks amazing and the transformation scene has never been more grotesque. The previous Blu-ray is included and it has loads of very interesting special features that I also thoroughly enjoyed after watching the film. The Howling is a classic. Buy it!

I got the slipcover, but I was in the store. Currently, all issued should have the slip. The wrapping is over the slipcover. At some point they might stop issuing slipcovers, but they are on the early runs out there now. So, even ordering online you should receive one.

Does this 70 have the option to hook up to hose so you don’t have to empty it?

Yes. I use the included hose and it continuously drains. No issues.

When sleek good looks meet powerful cleaning and intelligent performance, you~ll experience laundry on a whole new level. TurboWash 360~ cleans larger loads fast so you get more done while enjoying the same great washing performance. And forget about endless sorting~AI technology uses built-in sensors to detect fabric texture and load size and then automatically selects the right settings for advanced fabric care. Activate Smart Pairing in the ThinQ app, and the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle, making it the ultimate laundry hack. The gentle power of steam reduces common household allergens in fabrics by more than 95%*. Durable and stylish tempered glass door with rose gold accents adds the perfect finish. *Based on certification by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA)
 

Many have stated the the control panel is hard to see because it is not backlit. Has this problem been remedied with the newest model?

I can see the panel just fine, but I turn the light on when using the washer and dryer. That said, there are lights on the unit, but it isn't fully illuminated for use in the dark.

Is this unit capable of converting DTS signals to Dolby Digital 5.1?

I do not believe so. I seem to recall that I had a Samsung Blu-ray player years ago (maybe the F7500) that would do this.

Does this player have an option where you can change the screen size? I HATE letterbox.

Do any disc players do this? Every TV from the past several years has several built-in 'zoom' functions. So, use those. I see no such options in the player's manual.

can u download an app like a disney+?

No. The app selection isn't very broad. I don't even use them, and I recommend a dedicated streaming box over the player's apps.
