So disappointing...
on May 2, 2022
Posted by: Kenji
Verified Purchase:Yes
This TV rates very well in most places and I was so excited to get it.
The good.... The picture on light, bright shows is beautiful.
The bad...... There are well documented problems with this tv that have been there for months and samsung has not fixed them yet. There are many problems with the local dimming and contrast. Even settings that do not hold once you set the tv up. I can not wait until this tv gets exchanged for another brand because this is so bad. We have to unplug or totally reset the picture every day to fix just one of the problems. In the meantime we can not watch any shows that are darker because there is no definition to the objects. The problems are even being discussed on the Samsung community. Other forums have some fixes that have worked for only some people. Unfortunately not for me. I could not live with this for any length of time waiting to see if Samsung fixes the issue.
On top of that, the sound cuts in and out on some channels after you have watched for a bit. You have to channel up and down on regular tv or pause streaming and it temporarily fixes it. This has not been a good experience.

Mount review ...

This is a review of the mount itself, as it should be. Sanus mounts are excellent.
The problem and reason we had to exchange the mount was our own fault. We recently had recessed lights intalled in our family room and this mount is stationary. The reflection in our large tv are very distracting. We need to tilt.

Clear sound. Work well. My only negative comment is that when it announces from caller ID it only does it on the main unit and not the handsets as well. This replaces an old Panasonic set.

Vacuuming that fits seamlessly into your life. The i7+ learns your home and navigates to where the messes are, right when they happen~so you can effortlessly keep your floors clean. Just say to Google Assistant or Alexa voice assistant, ~Tell Roomba to clean under the kitchen table~ and consider it done. After each cleaning, the i7+ empties itself into Dirt Disposal bags that hold up to 60 days of debris so you can forget about vacuuming for months. Personalized cleaning recommendations and seasonal suggestions help keep floors clean year-round, and 10x the Power-Lifting suction* paired with self-emptying convenience help make life a whole lot easier.

Love it. I was feeling a bit guilty for spending so much on this but it has been such a help that i am glad i did it. One of my dogs feels it is her duty to defend the household by barking at it hoping it will stop. So we go outside and start it so its quiet :-) it does a great job.

Very good sounding and extremely comfortable
on April 20, 2021
Posted by: Kenji
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought these to go with my gaming laptop as I wanted something lightweight, closed back and with a USB sound card and a 4 pole cable
The sound quality is fantastic, I have Sennheiser Game Ones on my desktop and these are shockingly pretty close in terms of audio quality. The Sennheiser are better but I was shocked at how close the Razer can get. These have a fairly neutral-warm sound stage that can punch pretty hard with the bass when necessary but are not typical bass head cans. I'd say the microphone is the bigger difference. The razer one is just ok. Not spectacular but it's not a huge deal breaker, my friends can understand me fine and there isn't a lot of background noise coming through but it's a bit thin sounding.
Comfort wise they're very light and have minimal clamping force. I didn't find them overly hot or anything either. The controls are easy to find and feel good
Software wise I find synapse to be one of the better easier to use options. The THX spacial audio is pretty good if you like that thing (I do not)
Overall for under 100 a super solid headset with great audio quality

Changes from last one
on January 22, 2021
Posted by: Kenji
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you like Logitech MX Master mice then you will love this one. My mice get bounced around a lot but these last several years in spite of it. They have moved a couple buttons on the side this time to separate the side scroll wheel. It takes getting used to because it is a bit higher. Over all I expect this one to be as reliable as the last. Make sure you load the logitech software because this model changes the behavior of the side scroll wheel and you may want to change it.

We upgraded to the new Ultra to get the Dolby Vision. In addition to that we are finding that the Ultra is quicker to respond than our previous models... even the newer ones. The ONLY thing we have a problem with is the placement of the MUTE on the side of the remote. Both of us keep hitting it accidentally. We are long time Roku users.

3 out of 5Wouldnt purchase again
By Danielle
I cant say I would purchase this stove again. Its a BEAUTIFUL stove and I mainly got it because I wanted the air fryer option and black stainless. Well the air fryer doesnt work as good as a small counter top air fryer would and the stove is peeling just above the knobs. Im most upset about the stove peeling and of course it happens when my warranty ran out, go figure.

Protective film?

2 out of 5Local dimming bug breaks the tv
By Jeffonion
The local dimming is broken because of the software bug. Every time you turn off the tv and turn back one after a couple mins, the peaking brightness can only reach maybe half the actual brightness . Only a hold the power button to do a low cycle will temporarily solve it until you turn it on next time . Google it have there any many same report on this . Be ware

Enjoy brilliant color and sound with this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player. The chroma processing technology maximizes the color of 4K/HDR content, and the 7.1-channel audio output produces lifelike surround sound when connected to a home audio system. The color signals received by this Panasonic Ultra HD Blu-ray player are upgraded to produce natural textures and depth.
Does this player switch automatically to Dolby Vision when a movie contains that format? Or do you have manually switch to that like the Sony 700?

Does anyone know if this player outputs a 5.1 signal from Netflix and Amazon Prime through the HDMI audio output? Thank you.
It appears it will HOWEVER the app experience is EXTREMELY slow, Netflix took forever to load and I gave up waiting TBH. If you're looking at dropping 500 on a blu ray then you should seriously consider dropping the money on a roku or using built in TV applications if you have a newer TV (ie the newer lgs and sonys, no experience with current Samsung) as the experience is better. It's a great blu ray player and it's just very focused on being just that, a great blu ray player.
Also for some reason the Netflix app defaulted to constant dolby vision output for the menus and etc, I've never seen this behavior as every other device I've used it sticks to an sdr signal in the menus.
