Look, movies are meant to make us smile. I know, I know...Some people feeeel that a movie should make you "think", should make you be "more aware". I think. I am aware. I just want to escape reality for a bit and enjoy myself.
This film does just that. It is FUN! For those that feeeel otherwise, that feeeel a movie should give you angst and make you empathetic to whatever? Go watch the classic film, "Sullivan's Travels".

I usually drink iced tea and those expensive "energy" beverages, but, and everybody has a big but so it's time to talk about mine when it comes to caffeinated beverages, this thing has usurped the "energy" drink for me!
I start my day with a cup o' joe. Well...actually two cups. Maybe three. And I make all of 'em with real sugar, real coffee and real milk. The foamitizerizationalizing of this machine is great! It makes the milk all frothy and foamy and I use REAL milk! Sometimes I use REAL Kefir or even a mix of Kefir and cream for extra calories!
If it's a cold morning, I make my coffee HOT. If not, then I ice it up and enjoy it just as much! I'm saving enough money to go to Australia (!) by using this baby instead of buying several "energy" drinks a day! I kid you not!
And the beverages it brews are superb-a-mundo! Highly recommend? You got that right pardner! I use the K-Cups it came with and additional ones I purchased (Columbian) as well as the adaptor I bought to allow me to brew freshly ground Java!
So, If you're considering one of these brewers, ponder no more my friends! It does exactly what it says, does it well several times a day and if you're a caffeine nut like me, wakes you up for a whole lot less than several cans of "energy" drinks!
Highly recommended, indeed! Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

This case does not work if you are using the battery mod pack. That is the ONLY reason I took the case back and believe me, I want a case but I also want one that fits the phone with the battery mod pack installed. So...If you don't mind that one little detail, then yes, I recommend this case.
But for me? Nope. And again, this is the ONLY reason I did not keep the case.

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!

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!

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.

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!
