Love Tangled
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like Tangled better than Frozen honestly. Seems like it is the "red headed step child" of Frozen. The story and music are great and this is the best it has ever looked and sounded.

Cars
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Looks and sounds great. The steel was super cheap when I picked it up. Cars 2 & 3 are mediocre IMO, So this will probably be the only Cars of the 3 I own. Unless #2 drops in price too. But this is the best it has ever looked and sounded.

TS4 Good, but uneccesary
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well, TS series should have ended at 3. But it didn't. While a good movie, for me, it just doesn't have the same "feel". Almost feel like a completely separate "episode" from the first three. It looks and sounds beautiful. The odd thing about the steel, is that it doesn't match the style of the first 3. No title on the front just a few characters. Thankfully the spines of the steel match, otherwise this would have been a major error. Instead of a dumb decision. Yes I know it is just packaging, but it should have matched better with the other 3.

Just keep watching...

This, much like Nemo was begging for a 4K release since day 1 in the theaters. Since this is a few years newer than Nemo, the picture/animation is that much better. It is stunning in HDR and the ATMOS is fantastic seeing that alot of the movie is spent under water. Beautiful steel to pair with Nemo.

Nemo
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Nemo was just begging for a 4K release since day one. Well, it does not disappoint. The colors are spectacular with the HDR. The ATMOS adds to the underwater immersion and it is palpable. Very fun watch on the best possible A/V format. This and the Dory Steel are perfect matches together.

TS3

Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm a 40+ year old father and I blubber at the end every single time I watch this. IMO, TS series SHOULD have ended with this one. the ending is one big "mic drop" esp when you have adults, women AND men blubbering as they walked out of the theater. This looks and sounds stunning with the HDR and ATMOS. The steel matches perfectly with TS1 & TS2.

The One
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Fertacrit
Verified Purchase:Yes
The one that started a revolution for animated movies. The animation shows its age a little, that said this is the best it has ever looked and sounded. Grabbed this on sale, so my patience pays. Oddly enough the steels were cheaper than the standard 4k's. So I gobbled up 10 Pixar steels for over half off.

Absolutely stunning picture and audio. One of the best, if not the best looking and sounding Pixar 4k's The water looks so real, which is kind of a big deal since most of the movie deals with water. The steel is stunning too. Super happy I snagged this during a post Christmas sale for over 1/2 off.

Did you update the firmware? Also there is a Samsung APP called SmartThings it is alot more robust than the remote. Once I used the App to adjust the sound....HOLY COW it sounds beautiful. I have vaulted cielings so we dont get full sound of the Atmos, but it is a clear soundbar and the Sub hits low without it being a muddy boomy sound. It compliments the sound bar vs over powers it. There are modes in the app like space fit and voice enhance that really help out our open concept living room/kitchen. Update the firmware and download the app. Hopefully you will like this set up after tweaking the EQ and other settings

Unimpressed
By JimB
Not as impressive as I hoped. Volume weak….bass weak….does not immerse our family room. Would only recommend in a small room (less than ~400 sqft). Also - struggles to keep sync/Bluetooth connected to multiple devices…so frustrating to use daily.

Download the Samsung SmartThings APP. There are a lot of settings you can change to your liking. It sounds fantastic. Also a firmware update through the APP wouldn't be a bad idea if you haven't updated it at all

I'm lookin to expand PS5 memory. So other than being "licensed by PS5" and having a blue LED instead of red. I don't see any difference with the 1 TB WDBAPZ0010BNC that is currently less expensive. Am I missing something?

Are there wall mounts for the rear speakers? I have Vizio soundbar with rear satelites from 2-3 years ago that have wall mounts for them, do those wall mounts fit this new system?

Do you have to pay for the apps, for example CBS is 5.99 or 8.99 a month. Are all the apps already downloaded on this system?

This is essentially a "hub" for all the TV apps you use to watch TV. Like Netflix, Amazon, Sling, etc. You still have to pay the subscription fees for any APP you use. It is constantly updated and very well supported. So it is perfect for a central unit for all your OTA and streaming Apps

Is there a recorder divise that can interface with this android so you can set a timer and record preselected content.

If you look at the additional offer you get with this, you will get free DVR FOR LIFE if you are a new Sling Subscriber. Otherwise, no this does not act like a DVR, you would have to get an external HDD to do that
