Good 3D for its day
on April 6, 2018

...but oh what a slowly paced story!
Perhaps it is a sign of the times, where we are treated to action scenes with jump cuts every few seconds.
This drags on, but the 3D is quality, and a great representation of the product of its time

The force is not with this movie
on April 6, 2018
Posted by: MovieFan
from Wisconsin
Verified Purchase:Yes
The transfer of this movie is sub par, and not at all of the quality one would expect from such a blockbuster installment in the Star Wars cinematic universe.
HDR is barely noticeable, and levels of grain are comparable to that of the 1080p Blu-ray release on my 75"Samsung UHD.
To as insult to injury, the overall story and dialogue are sub standard, and not worthy of the accolades heaped upon it for simply being a movie with a title that contains the words 'Star' and 'Wars'
If you just see it, rent it or stream it.

4K offers some great, UHD High Dynamic Range views, whereas the 3D blu-ray gives the viewer a fantastically immersive and colorful experience.

About half the size of the potable model, but will the same features you would find on the classic Google Home smart speakers.
My daughter uses it as a source of music when studying, as well as her alarm clock.

Samsung SmartCam SNHP6410BN HD Pro Wireless Security Cam: Keep track of what goes on in your home, even when you're not there. This monitoring system lets you talk through your phone to anyone in your house, receive alerts when motion or noises are detected, and capture crystal-clear images in all lighting conditions.
 

does this camera require a seperate Wi fi?

No. If you have 802.11b, 802.11a, or 802.11n ...or the latest AC standard, the camera is capable of connecting to wifi on either 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands, so if you have wifi, you are covered, so long as your camera is within range of your wifi signal.

distance from router

How far from the router can the camera be placed? I want to put it in my kennel, 200 feet from router.
there are too many variables to answer this with any certainty.

Does the 200 feet consist of;
Open space?
Walls, and if so what type (brick, plaster, drywall ...are the studs wood or metal)?
Floors, and if so at what angle (traversing beams and joists at angles compound signal loss)?
Furniture?
RF interference (cellular, microwave ovens, cordless phones, RF remotes, etc.)?

Taking all of that into account, I would say that 200 feet would be at best, problematic without implementing a wifi extender, or one of the newer mesh wifi products from Google, NetGear or Asus.

If I am in my car away from a WiFi signal will my phone receive an alert that there has been motion detected?

If you have your SmartThings detection routine to send you a text alert, it would. Texts are transmitted independent of wifi or mobile data.

Samsung SmartThings Multipurpose Sensor: Stay informed and in control with this multipurpose sensor, which pairs with your SmartThings hub and your Apple® iOS, Android or Windows mobile device. A built-in accelerometer sends you alerts when someone knocks on your door or your laundry is done. You can also get notifications when doors, windows or drawers open. Plus, the sensor monitors the temperature and triggers your thermostat to adjust accordingly.
 

I thought that this sensor only detects if something is open but on this site it states that it can send an alert if someone knocks on the door. How does it do this?

it detects an open or closed status when in proximity of the included magnet.
It senses temperature of the surface that it is mounted to.
It senses vertical and horizontal orientation (for garage door open/closed) status.

...and it senses vibration as a result of someone attempting forced entry, or knocking upon the door.

The statement below's misleading, or 1/2 truth, I can't see how this would make a temperature change w/out a smart thermostat...."Plus, the sensor monitors the temperature and triggers your thermost"...never is smart thermostat mentioned. Clarity please?

it is a sensor, nothing more and nothing less. It senses an open/close status when installed opposite the included magnet. It senses the orientation (vertical/horizontal) to report on the open/close status of a garage door. It reports vibration, such as a knock on the door, or attempt to force entry through a door or window.

aaaaand it reports the temperature.

All of the above can be integrated into various other smart applications or devices such as the EcoBee Smart Themostat, and GoControl's garage door opener control module, but on it's own, it only senses and reports. It does not control.

Hope this helps.

Samsung SmartThings Home Monitoring Kit: Make sure your home stays safe when you're away with this monitoring kit, which comes with SmartThings Hub, a motion sensor, 2 multipurpose sensors and a smart outlet. Just pair the hub with your Samsung SmartCam HD Pro camera (sold separately) to enjoy remote monitoring on your Apple® iOS, Android or Windows device.
 

How many phones can be authorized to operate the smart hub? Could two cel phones and an ipad control this hub?

Yes. I have multiple devices paired with and controlling the system.

Three phones, and two tablets so far. No problems.
