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!

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!

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 have another of this companies products and have also given one to my daughter as a gift. I like iced tea and I drink a lot of it. Since buying this kettle I have averaged (on this version) 3 kettles a day without a problem. I use my other one to alternate when guests are over!
It's that good. Not good enough, you say? I spent my own hard earned money on it so the truth is, it really is that good. I highly recommend this device!

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'!

Can the battery be replaced? Is the battery rechargeable via USB? Can the RAM be upgraded? And finally, what is the rating on the NITS for this unit? My 4K gaming laptop is getting the battery replaced now by Best Buy and it is only 2.5 years old.

The Pioneer GM-DX874 four-channel amplifier will deliver up to 150 watts RMS to each of your front and rear speakers for powerful music. Highly efficient Class D technology keeps this powerful amp running as cool as it looks, and allows for a compact chassis that fits in a lot of out of the way spaces. The frequency response of this amplifier stretches up to 50,000 Hz, for Hi-Res Audio Certified playback. Pioneer uses high-grade electronic parts and gold-plated RCA connections to ensure maximum performance. Speaker-level inputs allow you to install this amp in a factory system with no RCA connections. The amplifier switches its input mode automatically when it detects the high-level signal, eliminating the need to run a turn-on lead to your receiver or fuse box. Built-in high- and low-pass filters let you adjust the sound for your vehicle's interior, whether you're driving speakers or subs.
Does this amplifier make a loud "POP!" when turning the audio system off or on, or does it have relays to prevent this annoying problem. I ask because the last time I put an amp in my truck (albeit years ago), the speakers did just that.

Shoot amazing videos and photos with the Ultra Wide, Wide, and Telephoto cameras. Capture your best low-light photos with Night mode. Watch HDR movies and shows on the 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display ~ the brightest iPhone display yet.~ Experience unprecedented performance with A13 Bionic for gaming, augmented reality (AR), and photography. And get all-day battery life~ and a new level of water resistance.~ All in the first iPhone powerful enough to be called Pro.
Would anyone care to remark on how Apple CarPlay is compared to Android Auto? I have the latter and it kinda SUCKS as it often doesn't recognize the phone is plugged in or when I speak to it it will turn the radio UP LOUD and not hear me, etc? Thx!

Is Apple CarPlay any more reliable that Android Auto? Primary use is as a phone but when in my vehicles I use Android Auto for music and that app seems VERY "buggy", including connection problems out the wazoo! I have just about had it! Thx!

Does this vacuum empty itself and go to its own charging system when it’s done
Nope. It's kinda like a baby in that you have to change the poopy diapers. It takes approximately 33.3232949349434 seconds for me to do this so I bet you'll be just fine!

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.

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!

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.

Sony - BDP-S6700 Streaming 4K Upscaling Wi-Fi Built-In Blu-ray Player - Black
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!
