4K on Netflix is not really comparable to a decent 4k Blu-ray. Not enough bitrate and too heavily compressed. I have fiber broadband and to my eye its often not up to regular Blu-ray standard, let alone 4K.

For those of you wanting to try this just to see what the format is like, don't bother. Like many early 4K releases this one is upscaled from something very similar to the standard Blu-ray resolution. Having watched several of these in the past few weeks, there really is very little difference in picture quality to a normal Blu-ray, even with HDR. If you want to sample what the format can do get something like The Revenant which is native 4K and absolutely stunning on a decent UHD TV, watch it then sell it on.

£5.99 is a missprice.. you clearly haven't seen the movie

Don't know why but i just got another one from the post man although i only ordered 1

1) 4K disc will be vastly superior to Netflix 4K even on the quickest connections.

2) Lots of people like to have a film collection, especially with box cover artwork/steel books/boxsets.

3) You can't resell your Netflix subscription to make back some of your outlay (or in this case profit), after watching it.

Thanks. I checked they didn't have any other 4Ks at £6.99. Would of almost literally killed for Deadpool.

Great post.

Heat. Ordered one. Only a matter of time before someone orders 50 for ebay :-/

Ordered. Thanks op.

Worth it just to test the format.

all gone on argos ebay site but surely they got plenty on argos online. Well, I now need the player , lol. Anyone can address me for the best xbox S bargain??
I did the same thing with the ps3 when it came out, started to play the BR, did spend £500 only for that, other players were at over £1000 at the time

says 2 disc on the description so looks like it does include the blu ray as well.

Bought. Don't have a 4k tv or anything but it's cheaper than the normal Blu Ray anyway.

Superb price... A few more cropping up at this price would be wonderful. Thanks OP.

great film.

Ordered. Lets see if they honour it.

keep an eye on ebay, they might comeback if they do not spot the error and surely they do not like to get negative feedbacks in case it is an error. Mine does say posted already

Haha. Thankfully, lack of funds will prevent that happening with 4K for now. Besides, I think I have too much pride in my Blu Ray collection at the moment to betray it to a new 4K obsession :smile:

Cold movie was so boring I watched in 2 days kept sleeping in the middle of the movie waste of money

Ordered from Argos website with free delivery, hopefully they will honour it. Great price OP, heat added.

Pity it's not an actual good film.

here we go, wondering what will happen to his feedbacks if argos will not honour his 100's of copies he just purchased. Also confirming it does include the bluray copy. The downside is that argos might look in to the big orders and cancel all:

ebay sold out, but ordered from argos thanks op

Cex will give you 11 quid...after I've used the digital code :smiley:

Looks like he put this up yesterday morning. Has about 18 copies, I think.

Sort of on topic, anybody here got an Xbox One S yet? What's the fan noise like?

Always been put off using consoles as movie players in the past as they make too much background noise.

At last, a 4K bluray that is actually affordable, though obviously a misprice. Still here's hoping they honour all the orders, that way I will finally have a 4K bluray for my Xbox One S.

Red hot, so long as Argos have plenty in stock... :wink:

order 8000 for eBay thanks £80,000 profit

thanks op

Great find cheers

no, only 2 hour ago. This month is made of 31 days.
Anyway, this would go well with this movie and for the people not having a 4k screen yet, it does include ( I think) a blu ray copy and picture(from the 4k copy) on a 1080p screen from a 4k player should also be clearer:

No 4K equipment but may as well plan for the future at this price!

How do you download this? Looks like it's a box with some sort of shiny flat circle inside? :confused:

by the look of it, it does definitely include the BR copy, the seller does sell it separately, look at the description back picture:

hot find but zero left :disappointed:

Playing any sort of disc is history now in my opinion. I much prefer to click a few buttons and stream anything I fancy.

Ordered. Great find.

Or watch it on netflix in 4k ... Why would you buy?

Missed the eBay lot which I suspect will be honoured, and ordered through the site, which I suspect won't.. Here's hoping though.

It's not even 4K , it's 2160p . This list is quite helpful to find proper 4K bluray
http://referencehometheater.com/ultrahd-blu-ray-title-info/

Hope he's in it for the long game - Only 5 sold on E-bay in the past month - quite a niche product!

2160P is 4K ;-) You are right though it it isn't a proper 4K title.

£5.99 is a missprice.. you clearly haven't seen the movie

I'm getting "Currently out of stock for delivery". And not available for in-store collection.

Saying oos for home delivery

Currently, I would say the 249 deal, Xbox S, Gears of War 4, Fifa 17, Now TV, from GAME

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/xbox-one-s-500gb-with-fifa-17-gears-war-4-physical-3-month-now-tv-pass-249-99-game-2528118

The best deals have passed, I picked up a stunner from Tesco about 3 weeks ago, but this isn't too far off

Sell the two games for at least 70 quid all in, perhaps a little more, and you got a 4k player console for £170-180

Ordered. Well spotted! Heat added.

I agree with you but if the master format is as an example 2k or just anything on any 4k film, would you say that the actual transfer on the disc might also be compressed a little bit further?? you see, they always mention what the original and the master format it is but not what is on the actual final disc apart from saying it is a 4k disc which does not always assure the highest quality

Hot but OOS :disappointed:

1) 4K disc will be vastly superior to Netflix 4K even on the quickest connections.

2) Lots of people like to have a film collection, especially with box cover artwork/steel books/boxsets.

3) You can't resell your Netflix subscription to make back some of your outlay (or in this case profit), after watching it.

Review of the UHD transfer...

tl:dr: You can't tell the difference vs bluray without comparing scene by scene.

http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Creed-4K-Blu-ray/152404/

OOS here :disappointed:

Ordered half hour ago from main website thanks op.

great price

No you are right. It is a 4K disc and outputs full 4K video. That's not the issue. The issue is that many of these films were not shot in 4K and even some that are end up being finished in a 2K master (basically 1080p) for standard Blu-rays. These titles don't have the extra detail you get from 4K to start with so even though they are upscaled to 4K you don't get much benefit, there really is very little difference from the standard disc. Look for titles that were mastered in full 4K to get the full fat 4K experience.

OOS on website

Not available for delivery to me nor at nearby stores, and also OOS on eBay. So sad. :/

Edit: Managed to order one on the site, seems they got more stock or something. I hope it goes through.

Personally would rather watch a decent movie on VHS than this on 4k

still in stock for delivery why expired?? administrator, please unexpire.

Ordered for home delivery, expecting a cancellation email by Mon however

Just went on live chat to cancel my order. Transferred me to the two man department?!
Lady said the code was for a two man item and comes direct from their supplier. She cancelled it and didn't say it was an error but something doesn't sound quite right with the ordering system..

Yip, mine cancelled as well. Didn't receive an email confirmation and decided to cancel it. They couldn't actually find the order so it's gonna be cancelled automatically anyway. Clearly a problem with the system or something.

2 man item? I understand now, I could not understand why my email is saying that my 2 4k TV's inclusive the 2 movies should be around by tomorrow, lets hope it goes through

£6.98 to much for this pile of crap..terrible film

Can't think of a single movie ive managed to sell on for any profit, musicmagpie usually offer about 1 pound for a relatively newish film.

Had a text saying it will be delivered by argos's 'trusty' third party seller by the 21st

I've just had home delivery confirmation via text message also.

I Just ordered it perfectly fine for home delivery, dont even have 4K or a player but i'll take the Blu Ray for that price!

Music magpie? You're doing it wrong lol. That's about the worst mechanism there is for a seller.

Try eBay, Amazon, Gumtree or Facebook.

Just placed an order via Home Delivery

Well I don't have a 4K TV but I do have a Xbox One S, and do plan to update to 4K before the Scorpio launches...I wonder if the Xbox One S will play 4K Blu Ray Disks if you don't have a 4K TV?

The Xbox One S will downscale the 4K disc to the res of your TV.

So 576i via the RF socket then?

I hope you're joking?

Instock again for buying just gotta wait a bit longer for delivery

Who's Miss Price?

I had the same problem

It's expired long ago.

it does and on a 1080p tv you should also theorically get a very slightly better picture quality because of the higher data speed transfer, surely better than what you would get from a normal bluray disc upscaled on a 4k tv

I hope YOU'RE joking, Superb film actually.

keep looking, price @£24.99 but they reverted it @£6.99 a couple of times in the last few hours

mine also says processing

Mine still says processing too

same here, though I did get an automated call saying delivery would be on 21st, though whether or not it actually turns up is another matter.

I was fortunate enough to have flubit elite at the time though and put another one through flubit as a backup and my flubit one actually shows dispatched so hopefully will get one via flubit if not argos themselves. :smiley:

Update, the flubit one just arrived in today's post, sourced from amazon (amazon envelope) happy days!

even the one from ebay is not been delivered yet. Posted on the day, soon after purchase

I assure you it's here, I have no reason to make it up. Can send pictures if you really want me to prove it. It has the cardboard slipcase and at the top it says 4K ultra HD + Bluray + digital hd ultra violet uv, no seal on the cardboard slipcase but the normal bluray case is sealed as one would expect.

Bear in mind that this order I placed was fulfilled by flubit, who in this case as I mentioned used amazon as the supplier despite me using the argos url so, the argos/argos ebay delivery times will have no bearing on it.

As I mentioned I still haven't received my order that I placed directly with argos.

Really glad I saw this deal and hope it comes for everyone else too...

Done a live chat with Argos the other day and they said the 21st to me as well.

Fingers crossed then they've been waiting for stock, due tomorrow for delivery by end of week

Confirmation text just hoping arrives tomorrow.

Has anyone received their 4k blu rays yet? Payment was taken last week but I've not received the movie yet :disappointed:

No, not received yet.

Arrived today in entertainment store envelope

Same as above mine also arrived today entertainment store sticker on the envolope

mine still says sit tight order in progress

Got mine too. Good stuff.

Got mine today, no confirmation email or text, just arrived saying it's from Entertainment Store, which was a bit confusing.

Mine arrived today :smiley:

Received my Argos order today too, just came in the normal post, says entertainment store like everyone else.

Really pleased Argos honoured these, well done Argos! :smile:

got it today, great Argos

same here arrived today. still says sit tight on my Argos account tho.

ahahahha, can see everybody is received their order, on sale on ebay as low as £12+postage. What a time wasting to only gain a couple of pounds. Even cex must have been flooded, from £14/11 the other day, they now give £13/9. I need the player now

the DIGITAL HD ULTRAVIOLET that comes with 4k UHD movies, is it any different than the one on the bluray and dvd? not even sure if sometime there is one coming with dvd's.
Thank You

Don't know why but i just got another one from the post man although i only ordered 1

Same film... Also some UV providers have said they will make the upgrade to 4K when they stat streaming the service :smiley:

Thank you,
1) can the provider be switched at anytime after activation?
2) if not, which provider would you suggest should I start to redeem some of these codes I never used?
3) which one might give best chances to get the free 4k upgrade should it be the case?
If not you, could anyone help? no worries if you get it wrong but it would give me a start and a better idea about this digital stuff
thanks

I'm out and about at the moment.. I will list them all later :wink:

They all merge your library - well most, Sony are a bit on the "I'm not sharing" side..
The apps are on most smart Tv's or on chromecast etc ...

Hope this helps

Mine came today,1 day after the delivery date. But again it came from the entertainment store. All I need now is a 4k player,still waiting for the killer Xbox one s deal.

Did anybody have theirs arrive with the cardboard envelope seal already open? Mine was and wondering if someone else opened it as it was on my doorstep.

All UV codes are linked to myuv.com and share with all services linked to it so sign up there first. flixster redeems as UHD quality on this title, Deadpool UV however redeemed in HD, Flixster has the biggest compatibility for UV codes so I always use them to redeem my codes and have the other services (flixster including talktalk tv and wuaki) linked to Myuv for watching on compatible devices that don't support flixster.

In my case yes :smiley:

I too received a complementary copy after my original turned up. Weird

Still waiting for mine to arrive :disappointed:
