Does its job, but no more than any other microwave
on December 20, 2022
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
This microwave has worked very well for me, but the advertising hype about the inverter technology and genius sensor warming your food more uniformly than an ordinary microwave is overblown. At all power levels, I still find that the microwave leaves me with some spots heated more than others and I need to stir and put the food in a second time. Overall, it works about the same as any other microwave I've owned.

Great quality camera when it stays in focus
on December 20, 2022
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
The C920s webcam works pretty well and has a good variety of quality settings, from SD to HD. However, the autofocus sometimes has trouble finding me if I move forward or backward in the frame. I'm recording in front of a static background, so it is annoying when the camera goes out of focus. I have to deactivate and reactive the camera in my recording software to bring it back into focus.

Great 90s re-telling of Emma, in a nice steelbook
on December 22, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this because I remember watching it when I was young, long before reading Jane Austen's Emma. Recently, I learned that Clueless was based on the story of Emma, so I decided to buy it again in this collectible steelbook edition.
If you like steelbooks, I would say go for this version, which is very affordable and will look good on your shelf. The Blu-ray copy of the film looks good on screen, and yes, it is very like the story of Emma, while also retaining the charm of 90s life in America. If you grew up in or around the 90s, you will enjoy the nostalgic experience of watching Clueless again (or for the first time)!
The disc itself does not feature disc art; it is a standard Paramount blue-label disc (see photo). However, the package does include a digital copy as advertised!

Fun family classic in attractive 4K package
on December 22, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
Cars was a good, family-friendly film when it came out, and it looks great on 4K! The steelbook packaging and disc art are excellent and, in my opinion, this package well worth the upgrade from the old DVD or Blu-ray set if you have a 4K TV.
Characters are funny and retain their charm on future viewings. The animation is colorful and attractive, sure to bring enjoyment and capture the imagination of audiences young and old!

Good trip down memory lane, but average quality
on December 22, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
The game works fairly well with the Switch controller. It looks like they are emulating the original games, rather than porting them natively to the Switch. However, it was a good nostalgic experience to get to play these games again on the big screen. The user interface is nothing to write home about.
The biggest drawback is the notable omission of Super Mario Galaxy 2, which I have never played and was hoping to be able to play on the Switch. Supposedly, the game will only be available through March 2021, so buy it now if you want to secure a copy of these three classics.

Excellent quality and good Bluetooth compatibility
on December 22, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
This mouse is not the cheapest option on the market, but it works great and the battery life has been excellent so far. I bought it because I trust the Logitech brand, and this mouse is well constructed and lives up to the brand name.
It also connects via Bluetooth, rather than a separate proprietary USB connector which you see on a lot of cheaper models. The Bluetooth connectivity means I can use it seamlessly with my tablet, not just with a laptop or desktop computer. Highly recommended if you want a tablet mouse or a reliable travel mouse!

A good 4K presentation of a lackluster storyline
on October 18, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
All of Studio Ghibli's and Miyazaki's movies are well animated, although I found the story line of Ponyo less compelling than most. There are some beautiful visual scenes such as those of Ponyo's mother, the magical sea queen. But in other places, I personally don't like the drawing style as much as in other Ghibli films. I would recommend it if you are a big fan of Japanese animation, but it might not be the best starting point if you're just sampling Miyazaki's films.
You can watch the movie in Japanese with English subtitles, or dubbed into English, and the voice casting is well done.

Fun movie, catchy tunes, excellent 4K presentation
on October 18, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's a great movie with memorable songs, and a good message for the kids. As an adult, I certainly enjoy it and find myself still singing "I Wanna Try Everything" in my head after I watch it.
The 4K video quality is excellent and the steelbook packaging is very nice, with full color disc art on both discs!
The Blu-ray is a good inclusion and is needed to watch the special features, since they were only authored in HD and that saves room for a higher picture bitrate on the 4K disc.

Great picture and sound quality. I say go for it!
on October 18, 2020
Posted by: Arthur
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been very pleased with the picture and sound quality of this TV, as well as the ability to play sound through my receiver and speakers using the HDMI audio return channel. The "magic remote" took a few days to get used to, but becomes pretty intuitive once you start using it.
Good range of picture settings such as brightness, color balance, and even overscan options for showing all pixels versus trimming out what would traditionally be in the overscan region of SD and HD TVs. While you may not expect to use that option with HD and 4K signals, it comes in handy when watching upscaled DVDs with distractions in the overscan region! It was easy to find in the menus after a quick Internet search.
The sound easily fills my small living room, but also plays seamlessly through my home theater speakers via HDMI-ARC. Home theater volume can be controlled with the TV remote or directly from the home theater system. Good integration with home theater products, allowing the TV's magic remote to access key features of connected devices.
There is a good range of basic apps available in WebOS, although some that I would like such as NBC Sports or specialized content like the Met Opera on Demand are not there and I have to stream through another device. Still, the major streaming players such as Apple TV, Disney+, Vudu, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube are there.
I get very high video streaming quality from the built-in WebOS apps. I think since the built-in apps know they are made for a 4K TV, they are written to make sure they pull the highest-quality video available. I even plugged a 4K Amazon Fire Stick into the TV for comparison, and the Amazon Prime streaming video quality from the Fire Stick was noticeably worse than when I played directly from the TV's Amazon app. So overall, I am quite pleased by the app quality on this TV!
Has an antenna port for streaming over-the-air signals, and it lets you choose which channels to display or hide in the channel list. That includes showing and hiding individual digital sub-channels. There is even a program guide included, which I assume fetches program data from the Internet for the channels in my area. I do not remember setting it up; if I did anything, it must have only been providing my ZIP code during setup. The TV just "magically" knows what is on and what shows are upcoming when I press the Guide button on the remote, which is a very convenient feature!
The only things I don't really like about the TV are, as I said above, the lack of specialized apps; the fact that I occasionally get advertisements from LG for new apps that I don't want (such as the Hyundai channel which they recently tried to push); and a few minor details about the menu and remote set up that don't really affect my ability to enjoy the TV.
The picture quality is excellent compared to previous generations (LCD HDTVs), with deep blacks and smooth color transitions. It is a pleasure watching movies on this TV in 4K that I could tell were "off" somehow (skin tones, color gradients, etc) when I used to watch the HD Blu-ray on my old TV set. You will not be disappointed!
