I enjoy Reeves' films and this one is no exception. As is often the case, I was not aware that this film was available as I never saw it in theaters, but...
It is worth the purchase price and without revealing more than one should, I can say that it is a decent film that does not disappoint.

Look, what can be said about one of these things other than it just flat works. You might be able to ask more of a product but you can't really get more than it does the job it was made for. It's rugged, reliable and to be honest, I can't think of another word that starts with "R"!

 Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you’re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you’ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
 

Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8” Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
 

Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

Two questions: I heard the U8K drops the HDMI signal, especially when using an HDMI splitter. Has this been a problem for anyone? I use an HDMI splitter to hook up multiple gane consoles. Also, have people run into dirty screen effect with the U8K?

8K is not widely (if at all) available via streaming. I spoke with my son who is an avid gamer and he said it isn't much of a deal in that environment.

If you split your source you are likely to suffer signal degradation unless you insert a device too boost said signal.

Can you use an Amazon Fire Stick with this TV, even though it’s Google? Apparently the cable company I am joining says they give you an amazon fire stick. Want to be sure it works with this TV. Thanks

Yes you can. I have done so via direct input of my Fire Stick 4K to the TV or via inputting the Firestick 4K into my Denon AVR-X4300H and it works superbly!

What is the Ethernet port's maximum BPS achievable.

I have found it to be fast enough for 4K films via Disney +, Amazon and MAX. My wireless hardwired speeds regularly exceeed 700+ MPS and wired is up to 1 Gig +.

There is no buffering of film or music as I sometimes use the TV for Atmos Encoded music.

Does the tv have clear picture when viewed at an angle or is it better viewed straight on

No complaints so far with this aspect of ownership! This TV is overall the best I have owned!

Is this the best tv for bright rooms?

This TV is so far excellent in bright rooms, natural or electric light matters not! Overall this is the nicest TV I have owned!

My only problem is very dark scenes that are CG generated as they appear blotchy or blocked (not from digital latency!).

An example is that I use a YouTube video of a thunderstorm over the ocean and the clouds are horribly rendered. This never happened on my 6.5 year old Samsung curved TV.

If Hisense can lend me a hand I would very much appreciate it!

But yes(!) so far in a bright room this TV shines!

I have a Xm subscription and want to buy this kit to put on my touring motorcycle and use my existing subscription. Has anyone put this kit on a bike? I have a usb plug in.

I used it on my 2006 GL1800. I put the unit and the car power adaptor in the right fairing pocket, and plugged the unit's Aux out to the Aux in that is in that fairing pocket.

I then routed the antenna out of the fairing pocket via a small channel I made in the pocket so the wire would not be pinched, and the cable was then routed under and along the lip of the saddle to the back and was placed on the rear speaker via double-sided Velcro. It worked great for years and many miles.

Hope this helps.

Can I use this in my house and does it come with me everything I need to set it up?

I have used mine this way for years. I use the SirisXM SXSD2 Portable Dock and route the antenna to where it car "see" the satellite.

The Dock has everything you need and runs on AC or D Cell batteries (you can take it outdoors).

I hope this helps!
