Good use of HDR, Atmos and 4k are lacking
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good use of HDR, especially in the final fight scenes. Atmos effects are basically non-existent. 4k is also not needed as this is only marginally more detailed than the 1080p Blu-Ray. Nice collectible Steelbook.

Great film, buy the 1080p Blu-Ray
on October 21, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought for the Steelbook. Save your money and buy the 1080p Blu-Ray as this film has basically no HDR, Atmos or increased resolution.

Good HDR, but lackluster Atmos.
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall, bought this exclusively for the Steelbook as the 1080p version is not much different. The HDR at the end of the film is impressive, but this does not warrant the purchase of the 4k version. Save your money, unless you want the Steelbook.

Possibly the best use of HDR, and Atmos in Marvel
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great HDR, especially with the dark scenes. Impressive Atmos effects during the final fight scenes. Scarlet Witch's effects are especially impressive. Would buy this over the 1080p Blu-Ray any day.

Great film
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
HDR can be overdone in some scenes, Atmos is mainly just an additional ambiance track. 4k was very impressive with this movie. Overall, great film, and believe the colors and HDR alone are reasons to buy this over the 1080p Blu-ray

![John Wick: 2-Film Collection [Includes Digital Copy] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray/Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)
This double feature contains both films in the John Wick series. In John Wick, a retired assassin finds himself seeking vengeance on a sadistic mobster; in John Wick 2, John Wick reluctantly accepts an assignment to take out the sister of an Italian gangster.

Cant beat John Wick
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
4k, Atmos, and HDR are all noticeable in these films. Not demo worthy to wow your friends, but a nice increase in immersion over the regular 1080p Blu-Ray films. And cant beat how both of these are cheaper than buying both separately!

Bought only for the Steelbook
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
4k is nice increase in sharpness over the 1080p blu-ray. There are a few Atmos scenes where the increased immersion and dynamic range of the sound is noticable, but this is NOT a demo worthy flick. Only bought the 4k as the Steelbook was the same price as the 1080p Blu-ray.

Good movie, unimpressive 4k, HDR and Atmos
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good plot, great visual effects. But do not need to buy the 4k version over the 1080p Blu-ray. No noticeable increase in detail, HDR is very minimal, expanded color is nice but not needed in this film. There is no Atmos effects I could notice besides light ambiance. Overall, good movie, just would buy the 1080p version.

Great HDR, not expecting that
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: TyJohn
Verified Purchase:Yes
Would buy this again and again for the HDR alone. Almost every scene has great detail, color and dynamic range. Atmos is barely there, but there are some good scenes for this (mainly when all of the suits fly in at the end).

No Atmos effects are noticeable, 4k is not needed. HDR is only noticeable with explosions of the droids at the end. Bought only for the Steelbook.

SmartSensor provides comfort to you and your family in the rooms that matter most while saving you energy and money. Through infrared technology, SmartSensor detects when a room is occupied and communicates that information wirelessly to your smart thermostat from up to a range of 60 feet prompting automatic temperature adjustments for comfort.
What does a smart sensor do?
The Smart Senor acts as additional temperature sensors around your house to allow for full house control of the temperature. I have placed one of these upstairs, and one downstairs in our house. There was a 10-12 degree difference before I installed my Ecobee with the additional Smart Sensors. Now, there is 3-4 degree difference in our house between all floors. I also have been using the Smart Sensors as motion sensors in SmartThings to trigger automations.

Control devices remotely with this voice-enabled TP-Link Kasa smart Wi-Fi plug. It lets you schedule and operate two lights, fans or other appliances together or separately, and the built-in 2.4GHz Wi-Fi capabilities eliminate the need for additional hardware. Use the Kasa smartphone app to control this TP-Link Kasa smart Wi-Fi plug from wherever you are.
Is each of the outlets independent of the other or do they both react to the same command?
They are both individually controllable. I have a lamp on one side and a fan on the other side and I can control them together or separately on the app or with Alexa.

Upgrade any home media setup with this Samsung Harman Kardon Q70R soundbar. Seven speakers, a wireless active subwoofer and surround sound compatibility combine to bring professional-quality sound to your living room. Connect this Samsung Harman Kardon Q70R soundbar to your favorite audio source with support for Spotify, Alexa, Bluetooth, HDMI and many other connection options.
I already have the Samsung 9000 Surround Speakers from a Sound+ Soundbar, They seem to be larger and nicer than the 8000 series, will they work with this soundbar, or do I have to buy the smaller surround speakers?
They will not work. You will need the 8500s rear speakers.
