The first and third installments are the best with the 2nd coming in "third" place and the "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Cathedral" coming in last. It was still great to see Indy and Marion together and not even that goofball wack-job Chia-pet Laboof couldn't destroy the joy in that union! LOL!
Picture and sound on all transfers are exemplary! I bought a set for me and one for my brother and his most excellent wife!
So then, HIGHLY RECOMMENDAMUNO!
Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Look, they are for Dolby Atmos encoded films. The work just fine, look good doing so and were an upgrade to a pair of Atmos speakers that didn't look as good and were not as well designed.
Highly recommended indeed!

It's too golly-gee-whiz SHORT and is therefor useless to me. My fault really, I thought I was buying the 3.3 foot version again.
I will cut this junque into pieces and trash it and just use the 3.3 foot cable I also bought. This one is ridiculously unusable for me and no...I don't want to give it away.
I should have paid attention to what I was ordering, LOL! :-) I can be such a maroon sometimes! So NO freaking way I would recommend this too-short-for-anything-I-would-care-to-charge-on-it cable.
I gave the 3.3 foot cable 5 stars. Yeah, it's the same cable but much more useful in the real world. AGAIN - It is my own fault for not paying attention and so I've paid the price and will trash this useless thing. If you have a use for such a stupid-short cable, then by all means, it is a five star item.
I don't. :-)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Is far more useful than the dumb 1.6 foot cable I accidentally purchased. That one is a joke and I will just cut it into pieces and throw it away. This one is a keeper!!
No...Really. I am trashing the short 1.6 foot cable and keeping this one because it is far more useful. :-)

This iPhone from fApple actally works very, very well. I have had noting but trouble from my Motorola Z3 Play and Android Auto. I recently had Best Buy install a new audio system in my Mustang that works with either Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and the former just did NOT work well at all with my Z3 Play.
So what to do? I changed cables, I waited for updates, I put up with Android Auto not even recognizing my phone was there until I asked my daughter about her iPhone and CarPlay.
Via CarPlay in my Dodge Ram (I have not yet tested it in my Mustang but when I do I shall edit this review to reflect that experience) this iPhone does what I ask of it. I ask it to call my wife and it calls my wife. I ask it to play music via Pandora, SiriusXM or Amazon Ultra HD Music and it does.
Every time.
So...Highly recommended.

I got this for my son's new phone and here's why.,
I have had Otterbox cases for my work phones for years and as I have a slight physical handicap that can cause me to fall (and I do) I can say that I have NEVER broken my work cell and it is all due to Otterbox!
I also bought one for my new iPhone SE. Highly recommedomundo!

I have to admit to going through phones due to a slight physical handicap that causes me to fall sometimes. And when I fall, the last thing on my mind is protecting my phone.
I've broken a few, believe me. I could not find an Otterbox for my Z3 Play and so that along with Android Auto problems prompted me to purchase the new iPhone SE and immeidately bought this case for it.
I have an Otterbox case for my work cell and it has NEVER been broken when I fall. I have fallen twice with this new Otterbox for my iPhone SE and the phone and case are both as new.
Highly recommended? Yuppers!

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!

Motorola - Edge 256GB (Unlocked) 2021 - Nebula Blue
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!

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.

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!

I already have XM Radio, do I need to buy a new receiver?
You may have to have BB hook up your XM Tuner (if possible) to the unit. If that cannot be done and you want to use that feature you can purchase an XM Tuner from BB and have it connected to the device and then have SiriusXM switch your account over to the new tuner's I.D.
I have this Kenwood in my Mustang and I had them hook the XM roof antenna up with a pigtail to my portable SiriusXM player's cradle (connected to a spare input) and BAZINGA! It works great. I can also use my streaming account via my iPhone if I so choose but out n the middle of the Arizona desert I don't always have a 4G signal to stream music but I always have my SiriusXM satellite signal.

Is this radio compatible with an IPhone XR? Also meaning, that I don't want to have to use an USB port to connect my phone. Thanks, any info will be GREATLY appreciated.
This particular unit does not have Bluetooth Android Auto/Apple CarPlay capabilities. you will have to upgrade to a different model, otherwise it works absolutely flawlessly for me with the Blootoof hooked up and the Apple cable pllugged into the USB-A port. Flawlessly.

Will it work with an apple phone
Yes! It works GREAT with my new iPhone SE and I had Android prior to that and Android Auto stunk with the two different phones I tried but CarPlay works flawlessly for me with this Kenwood and I would tell you otherwise. Like Superman said, I never lie.
At last... I am soooooooooooooooooo happy with my stereo now that I have the Applie iPhone SE and CarPlay!
