What's not to like...

Verified Purchase:Yes
Actually, not a thing. The phone is an excellent PHONE. Does it play stupid videos? Yup, but outside of testing that capability I would never play a stupid video on a PHONE. Why? Cuz it's a PHONE and I have a 55" UHD-HDR curved screen TV for movies. Why in the name of all that is normal would I choose to watch something on a PHONE over such a nice TV? Answer: I would not. Because I am an ADULT. ;-)
But...It can and will play a wide variety of music services including the 14,000+ songs I have a MicroSD card. But...Yeah, everyone has a big but so it's once again time for my big but...I have SiriusXM, Pandora and Amazon Music Unlimited and it handles those with ease. 32 gig of memory and a fast enough processor makes it, well...fast enough!
I have a lifetime subscription to SiriusXM on a Pioneer Mp3 SiriusXM portable player I bought from Best Buy years ago, so if I forget to bring it along or I also forgot my iPod or one of my other Digital Audio Players (DAP) I can use my PHONE. But I try not to.
Above all that it is a very good PHONE. If it were not, I would not have bought it. Why? Because I needed a new PHONE!
Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

I am an avid film collector and have over 1,000 movies on VHS, SVHS, Laser Disc, DVD, BluRay and now UHD BluRay. This latest Ant-Man and the Wasp is well done with enough humor (Michael Pena!) and action to satisfy most anyone. I only buy films I am CERTAIN I will watch more than a couple of times and that's why I bought this one! Highly recommended!

Fantastic Jurassic...

As with many second effort films, this one is not as good as the first in the rebirth of this series. But it is still worthy my hard earned money.
I think the ending is rather lame. There. I said it. L A M E, lame. What is it Deadpool says in DP2? "That's just lazy writing". The special effects are up to the task and the actors and actresses (see...I know the women are really called ACTRESSES!) are too.
I so enjoyed the first film in this reboot that I bought this one too and I really don't have an regrets. It's good. Not great. Good. And nothing is wrong with good. I recommend it for a nice rainy day (or evening) filled with thunder and lighting and a good hard shower.

Excellent picture and wonderful sound! Throw in a good story line and very good to excellent acting based around an even better first film (Sicario) and you've got "Sicario - Day of the Soldado".
The ONLY reason I didn't give this 5 stars is it is not as good as the first film. I only purchase films I KNOW I will watch more than 50 times (LOL!) and this is one of 'em! Highly recommended!

I tried the excellent Insignia GoogliegIRL speakers. Nice but I hate talking to GooglieGirl. I tried Amazon's Alexa speakers. Not as nice as the Insignia GooglieGirl speakers and I don't like talking to Alexa.
I have a Denon AV Receiver I got at BB with Heos built in. Guess what?
These little speakerettes are fantastico! No need to be hoping some A.I. female voice will recognize my voice and play my music, I pick what I what and send it where I want it. No regrets! No if onlys? No buyer's remorse! No kidding. These are superdedoooper!
These are excellent speakers and I am going to be getting at least two more in the future. Highly recommend! Trust me. I know what I'm doing when I'm reviewin'!

The Award-winning Hisense U8 Series Mini-LED TV just got even better. With Peak Brightness 1500 and more than double the local dimming zones as last year, along with Quantum Dot Color, Dolby Vision HDR, and Low Reflecton panel technology, the U8 delivers unmatched brightness, contrast and detail. And, with Dolby Atmos and an upgraded 50w 2.1.2 multi-channel audio system, the U8 creates an immersive cinema experience in your home. In additon, the U8 is compatible with the new Wifi 6E router protocol and includes a NEXTGEN TV ATSC 3.0 tuner making the U8 virtually future-proof. With the Google TV OS and Hands-Free Voice Control, searching for and playing all your favorite content is simple and seamless. Just say ~Hey Google~. The U8 also got more upgrades for the gaming enthusiast including a 144Hz VRR panel, Dolby Vision Gaming and FreeSync Premium Pro for an enhanced gaming experience. And, be2er also just got bigger with the U8H now available in an 85~ screen size.

Great TV but...
By SSSS
Other than a weird " mosaic" look to some black areas on the screen the picture is great. But..
I absolutely HATE that this TV with my Denon AVR-X4300H. My previous TV didn't have the Denon turn on automatically when I turned on the TV and then drive me NUTSO by trying to upset me (and it does!) by going through and turning on every source connected but never the one I want which is usually nothing at all.
I HATE that and I know it's the new TV because the previous one didn't do that. Hisense? Help!
I have unplugged all sources to stop this but then when I want to watch a UHD Disc I have to get back there and plug it back in. I am handicapped and this really sucks. I've looked and cannot find why this TV does this so I am hoping Hisense and make some sense of this and tell me where to turn it OFF!!!!
Again, I absolutely HATE this "feature" of turning on media sources and being a handicapped senior I am about to give up and throw this piece in the trash!

Hisense where are you"
January 14, 2024
I would very much appreciate it if you could help me with the TV I bought. The Hisense U8 65". Not a peep has been heard or read on what to do about my problem with the TV.
I see 2 idiots said my review wasn't helpful? It was TRUTHFUL and if you cannot handle the truth not my problem. If I don't hear from Hisense this thing goes back under warranty.

Finally!
March 31, 2024
I fixed the "mosaic" effect that plagued deep black backgrounds. Now the picture is at last, SUPERB! Even after turning off the HDMI feature that seeks out and turns on associated equipment it still does just that. So...I just keep turning them off until it finally gives up. I never heard from Hisense and I am disappointed with that aspect but I would not give the TV 5 Stars for its overall performance.
And no! This reviewer DOES NOT RECALL EVER HAVING received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review. The pusillanimous out there need to realize that not every review I do will not reveal a genuine problem.

Smoke, grease and cooking odors have no place in your kitchen. But neither do bulky hood vents that overpower your design sensibilities. LG STUDIO wall-mounted hood vents offer a streamlined, low-profile look that occupies minimal visual space, paired with a professional-grade 600 CFM blower that delivers ultimate air movement. The theme of powerful performance and refined style continues, with dual level LED lighting that brilliantly illuminates the cooktop surface and sophisticated, touch controls. Available in 30~ and 36~ widths in elegant black stainless steel; classic stainless steel finish.

Beware of LG's HORRID customer service.
By SSSS
This purchase has been a NIGHTMARE! LG has left us with a dead unit for several months now and this after I spent several thousands of dollars on their Studio line of Kitchen appliances for our home. An oven. A dishwasher. A refrigerator and this piece of garbage Range Hood.
The hood has not worked in MONTHS and LG does nothing but give us the runaround. I have jumped through their hoops like a trained dog at a circus! Their customer service is TERRIBLE. There are supposedly 120 of the Range Hoods in LG's warehouse and yet they cannot get one to me?
Now they want me to remove the Serial Number/Model Number sticker from the hood and cut it in half and take a picture of it and send it to them. I have sent them photos of said sticker. I have sent the photos of the receipt that I actually bought this from Best Buy (several times I have sent this!) and they do NOTHING!
Their customer service center is useless as NOTHING is done by them. I have asked for help from "management" and it is promised and then...NOTHING is done by them.
They keep ignoring me across the board and one supposes it is their hope that I will give up. I am NOT giving up!
LG treats their customers as if they are lying. We have had multiple LG Technicians out to fix this thing and after the 4th time failing to do so, the Techs were told "No RA is authorized!" They are treating me like crap. LG's customer service is non-existent.
LG Studio Range Hood UPDATE!
June 30, 2024
I would very much like to commend two Best Buy Employees that helped us with out problem with LG and our Studio Range Hood. With the kind assistance and hard work of Bailey and Jenny our non-functioning for months Range Hood was replaced by Best Buy. I have nothing but praise for these two women and Best Buy. LG treated us poorly but when I contacted Jenny and Bailey they went to work right away and after waiting months for LG to do nothing but ignore us, they had set up a date for the defective unit to be removed and a new, fully functioning Studio Range Hood installed!
I always purchase my electronics, appliances and more from Best Buy. I have been doing so for decades now and Best Buy has always be wonderful to us. LG on the other hand ignored me for months on a product that was brand new. I am and will continue to be a Best Buy Total Tech Member and customer because of Jenny and Bailey as well as everyone I have come to know over the years at the Best Buy locations I use (Chula Vista and San Diego) because they have always been very helpful.
If I could amend my review to show 5 ***** STARS right now, I would have done so and all because of Best Buy's excellent people. I originally purchased (all from LG's Studio Collection) the Range Hood, an Oven, Dishwasher and my favorite, a side by side refrigerator with 2 ice makers and a pull out lower freezer with help from Jenny and her staff. She has been a tremendous help on this as has Bailey and I cannot express my gratitude enough to Best Buy for these two wonderful people. They worked as the perfect team to help us get our defective Range Hood replaced quickly and professionally.
The new unit works as advertised which is all anyone could ask of a product. Thank you Jenny and Bailey and thank you Best Buy for having them there to help my wife and I.

Great amp, limited by Heos
By Elsket
[Employee of bestbuy] The amplifier has enough wattage to drive practically any speaker, including my Bowers & Wilkins 704 s3 towers and my Martin Logan Motion 15i bookshelf speakers. I have this plugged permanently into my office production PC, running a 2.1 system with the virtual sound mode helping to fill the entire room with sound. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the reliance on the Heos app (which cannot be installed onto a PC or TV), and lack of physical controls on the device past play/pause, forward and backwards. Lack of volume control, input select, etc without either your phone or your tv remote mean you're reliant on your portable devices to control it. Not a huge deal for a STREAMING amp, as you probably will be working around that anyways, but it is annoying nonetheless.
HEOS is SUPERB and user friendly!
December 25, 2024
There is a volume control on the front of the M1. There are also "PLAY" and "PAUSE" controls on the front of the M1. As for the HEOS applicatiom? I find it easy and rather intuitive, at lease once you have familiarized yourself with it. There was a recent update to this application that makes grouping speakers/rooms easier than before. I went over it via telephone with my sister-in-law and she is thrilled with this aspect of the new features.
I have owned HEOS equipment since 2016 and it is without a doubt the easiest interface for home audio I have yet used. When I retired I bought with my own money 20 HEOS speakers from my local Best Buy to use at home as well as give to friends and family. They were the Home 150 and Home 250 models. HEOS works. I gave a set to a friend in her 80s and she can use it with ease and is so happy that she can now listen to music from Italy (she is fluent in Italian!).
No application is completely without annoyances but that is why there are updates and to date Denon/Marantz have been doing just that with this application. Denon HEOS speakers since the 2nd Generation are all High Resolution capable. In other words, they are far more capable of playing at bit rates and frequencies than the human ear can detect. I have 2nd gen speakers along with the newest Home series throughout our home. Even in my garage for my home gym! I will soon be giving five friends of mine each a Home 150 (no charge!) and I will set it up and show them how to navigate just as I did with my friend in her 80s. Why? Because I can. I want people to experience the soundtrack of their life with HEOS in their home. HEOS does not require that you have a HEOS equipped AVR (tho' I own and use 2 of them in our home!).
I never lie. It just works and works just fine! It is "Roon" ready if that is your cup o' tea. I tried it for over 2 months and did not find Roon at all useful to ME but that does not mean it will not be useful to others! I don't need Roon to help me hit "PLAY" or "RANDOM PLAY", LOL! I can easily play my CD collection via HEOS anywhere in our home that has a HEOS speaker. The same is true of my 20,000+ songs on any of my computers! I can also play vinyl records the same way, although I must admit it is not as good sounding as CDs or streaming but that is to be expected as the source is vinyl. Any that think I need a better turntable should know that I have a Pro-Ject X Series in walnut that I bought at Best Buy. The 'table is fantastic but the medium via WiFi is not as nice as it is directly played, if you will.
I wrote this to help people learn about HEOS. It really is fantastic and easy to use! I highly recommend it to everyone that just wants to enjoy their music anywhere in the home. I just bought a Denon Home Amp for use with a pair of towers in the garage gym and next will be a Marantz Model M1 for some seasoned citizen friends of mine in their living room at their home with their speakers! HEOS is that easy!
Thanks!

Does my Total Tech cover me returning this TV or not? I just reset it to wipe out my streaming services. I give up. Hisense has not done squat for me. I am still a fan of Best Buy, just not this TV.

My TV has a horrid "mosaic" affect on deep blacks that cannot be adjusted away. Also, this new TV "communicates" with my Denon AVR and turns on the AVR and starts turning on media players like Blu Ray and UHD Disc players. I hate this!!! HELP!!!!!

I have owned this for just over two years now and I don't think I will EVER get used to how W I D E the picture is. It is, for me, too wide. So wide that it is nearly useless. Is there a way to zoom in and refocus the camera? If not, good bye camera.

Clean up your house from the comfort of your couch with this bObsweep PetHair robotic vacuum cleaner. Wi-Fi connectivity lets you schedule cleaning tasks from anywhere via your smartphone. This bObsweep PetHair robotic vacuum cleaner automatically returns to the charging dock when power gets low and can hold up to 600ml of dust and debris.
 

Does this vacuum work on a 5 GHz WiFi

No it does not. If you have a Mesh System WiFi you will have to go into the router and separate the two frequencies in order for your vacuum to see the 2.4 frequency and then all will be groovy! At least that's how we did it on mine and my daughters and they work just fine. I believe one of the factors behind this using the 2.4 may be that range/distance/strength of transmission is greater on the lower frequency.

Does this model mop?

Nope. There is a model by the same manufacturer that does mop but I cannot think of the model right now. It is on BB!

Bring vibrant visuals to your screen anywhere, anytime with the versatility of a 360 degree hinge, long battery life and simultaneous pen and touch support.
 

Since the RAM is hard soldered on, can the battery be replaced or not, please? Thank you!

To further clarify my question regarding the battery, is it soldered onto the motherboard or is it connected via a ribbon cable and a molex-type connector? Please let me know as this is a VERY important detail to me. I get the RAM part and find it odd that anyone would solder memory to the board as if you have a memory failure you are screwed. Thanks in advance!

Can the battery be replaced or not? Thank you!

Thanks for the answer but perhaps I was not clear enough. Is the battery hard-soldered onto the board or is it attached via a ribbon cable and a molex-type connector to the board? If soldered, I must pass. Either way thank you for the previous answer and I look forward to hearing from you on this.

Does anyone know if this box set is formatted for the US. Just got a box set from the UK and it doesn’t work in my DVD player.

This boxed set for all three John Wick films is made for the USA. I know because I gave it to my brother an his most excellent wife and they, like me, live in these United States.

This Sony BDP-S6700 Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling has built-in super Wi-Fi through MIMO. This lets you stream live from online services. Built-in Bluetooth and SongPal Link stream movies and music or connect your devices through HDMI, coaxial output, USB or Ethernet. This Sony Blu-ray player with 4K upscaling also offers child lock and parental controls.
 

I’m getting an error message stating that the BluRay and 3D BluRay discs I’m using are not compatible. I confirmed that they are Region A so could the issue be they I’m using a regular HDMI cable?

This is not a 3D capable player so it will not work on 3D discs. While there are bandwidth concerns for some 4K cables, I don't think this is a problem with Blu Ray discs. Of course I could be wrong and I have experienced problems with some Blu Ray and standard DVD where the player identifies the disc as unreadable and classifies it as a "CD-ROM". This upsets me no end as these discs worked fine in the past. If you wish to try a cable that is rated higher then you could purchase one meant for 4K data transfer rates (and NO! A fancy cable with really pretty connectors and the like is not needed, just the bandwidth transfer specs are) and see if it works but as this is a Blu Ray player that upscales to a faux 4K, that may not do a thing for you. I hope this helps.

Can I use a regular HDMI cable with this unit?

I don't see why not, so yes! I have heard and bought cables with different ratings but this is a Blu Ray player that can "upscale" (think "Faroudja line doubling") to 4K. My brother reports no problems so far with his and he doesn't have any special cables that I am aware of. And yes, he would tell me. So then. This is a great player and should have no problems working with a standard HDMI cable. I hope this helps!

Is amazon music icon available or can I only use Amazon music through Bluetooth?

I have Pandora Plus, SiriusXM and Amazon Music Unlimited Ultra HD on my iPhone (and previously on my Android phone) and the icons show up fpr me and I have no problem playing any of those services on my Kenwood unit via CarPlay. It works great!

I hook the phone up to Blootoof and attach the Apple cable to my phone (it is plugged into the Kenwood via a USB-A cable) and BAZINGA! I have access to the aforementioned services via CarPlay.
