Worlds First HDMI 2.1 Sync Box with 8K Support - Lytmi Fantasy Neo 3 Review!

[@zulu123-x2d]

What happens if you use regular HDMI cables, how can you tell if the cables are HDMI 2.1, what is "uncroppable" thanks

[@christophchoe]

FYI for anyone interested. The HDMI sync box does not have eARC/CEC support.

[@datdudethomasthomas3011]

Could you speak to when this effects your experience? I planned on installing the lytmi 3.0 box soon and have a denon sound receiver being used as all my throughputs to my LG C1 OLED. Will my configurability on using one remote be lost going from Game machine (Switch, PS5) > Denon > Syncbox > TV or is there a workaround? Thanks.

[@christophchoe]

@datdudethomasthomas3011 For me personally I need the earc/cec support. I have an atmos soundbar and a shield. I can't imagine fumbling through 3 remotes (tv, shield, soundbar) on a daily basis to adjust volume or change inputs.

[@taika2]

not sure if it is your wall color or your settings but it did not do it any justice 👎🏻

[@MuphProductions]

Can you confirm if the HDR/Dolby Vision color reproduction is better than the 2.0?

[@TrendingReviews]

I have the 2.0 and yes, it is definitely better.

[@JasonHendry22]

how do you change chanel? remote?

[@MrRaymondPlayesGames]

I noticed you had VRR and ALLM enabled on your Ps5 how did you get it to work. Cause mine doesn't support it. My TV is a Sony Bravia x90k it has HDMI 2.1 120hz ALLM support and VRR

[@adriantunaru5877]

Greeting. I also have a question. If I have my TV connected to my PC and I don't play all the time on 4k resolution dcu a refresh rate of 120 hz would work if it's not always in 4 k??

[@Brosfight_]

I ordered my unit yesterday. I have a question though. I'm trying the Fantasy 2 Kit right now and the LEDs are very dark compared to my hue Gradient. Is it something you noticed with the Fantasy 3 kit? In your Video the LEDs look bright and vivid. My Fantasy 2 are dim with washed out colors in SDR and HDR. Also white appears blue-ish like on cheap LED stripes, and yellow is basically washed out green. I played the same Footage like you and it is now even close. I wonders if there is a difference between the LEDs being used in the Fantasy 2 and 3 Kit

[@TrendingReviews]

I believe the quality and brightness of the LEDs have been upgraded in the 3.0 - the light strip itself is a newer design and the Fantasy 3 light strip has 50% MORE LEDs inside it, which is why it is brighter. And this makes your colors and gradients pop even more.

[@Brosfight_]

Are there differences between the 2.0 and 3.0 in Color, Brightness, tracking etc? My 2.0 looks washed out and dim.

[@Shanks6039]

Does airplay work with this? I heard it doesn’t, pls answer this is a make or break for me bc sometimes I like to airplay to my tv for bigger screen.

[@TrendingReviews]

Yes but only if you have an Apple TV box connected to this sync box

[@Shanks6039]

@@TrendingReviews It doesn’t work with chromecast or anything else?

[@xanderross]

No info on the compatibility with the Dolby Vision and the HDR10. 😢😢

[@sholmesbrown]

Previous model supports HDR 10/+ and Dolby vision, all the formats. Was only 4k 60hz

[@TrendingReviews]

Yes, it does support this.

[@Gates-Tech]

nice video! i use a lg c2 paired with my pc. will this work? 😃

[@TrendingReviews]

Thanks! As long as you've connected a HDMI source directly to the Neo box, then it should work !

[@uptownsfinest1598]

for $300 strip and light bars it should just work Ive had them for 2 months and I cant get the bars to sync up for nothing they just stay white wish I can return these bS's

[@brandonalessio1586]

This might be a really stupid question, but does it work with apps built into the TV or does it HAVE to be an HDMI

[@TrendingReviews]

It has to be a HDMI source unfortunately. Can't work with the TV apps directly.

[@TheMrMagee]

I have the Lytmi 3 and I was NOT impressed with this video but my experience with mine is fantastic! I'm not sure what settings he's using but I didn't see a big difference in colors. However, on mine it looks like the picture extends out from the tv. Recreate and Game give the most colors and then put the Diffusion to 50-60 for the best effect I've seen so far. It looks like he had it on Video, which has the fewest amount of colors.

[@FPHigelmo]

Hi, i have bought one and I have the same problem that the video shows. I have tried with a Nvidia shield and only works correctly with some KZbin videos but the light with tivimate or another apps its whitish. Could you help me? Which device do you use?

[@TheMrMagee]

@@FPHigelmo I have an Xbox plugged into a Lytmi 3, into a Sony tv (a few years old) that can't push 120 hz. I had to mess around with the settings but it came together pretty well after I used recreate with 60% defuse

[@FPHigelmo]

@@TheMrMagee sounds great. I have a Samsung S95BA OLED, the Nvidia Shield and the PS5 but I didn’t know that TV setting affect the result of Lytmi. I installed it yesterday and it works very bad. When I watch a football match the light is like white or blue. I don’t understand why and I think that the app is too much basic, few customizable options.

[@les_poulistes7691]

Bonjour, j'ai le même soucis. Les couleurs ne ressortent pas de ma TV Samsung.

[@FPHigelmo]

@@les_poulistes7691 I haven't found the solution yet but if I do I will write to you. Please do the same if you find out how to fix it.

[@robertrussell4009]

Can VRR support be updated via firmware? Also, does the lack of VRR support only pertain to backlight functionality, or does it also prevent the TV and console from utilizing VRR?

[@tyr0316]

I’d like to know also

[@MaverickTHEHulK]

Is anyone able to help? I’m using this Lytmi Fantasy 3 with my Series X, and it plays things like Netflix, Apple TV, and Amazon Video just fine, but every time I try to play a game I get a message that says, “weak or no signal”. I only get this message when I try to play a video game. I never got this message until I hooked up this Lytmi so I believe the Lytmi is the issue somehow. Does anyone know why I would be having this problem and how to fix it? Also, I have a Hisense U8H TV, and I’ve tried games like MW2, Read Dead 2, A Plague Tale Requiem, RE Village, and Atomic Heart, if it’s relevant. RD2 did come on once, but the Lytmi Fantasy 3 only showed green lights the entire time. Thanks in advance.

[@TrendingReviews]

Just a couple of troubleshooting steps: 1. Did you switch the mode on the lytmi app to Game mode? 2. Can you check your console settings to see if 120Hz is set to On with VRR? If so, try reduce it to 60Hz with VRR off and see if it works? Otherwise the only thing I could suggest is if you contact Lytmi support (or your seller you bought from)

[@MaverickTHEHulK]

@@TrendingReviews I already figured it out. It was the freesync for sure. 👍🏽

[@TrendingReviews]

Glad you got it sorted - sorry for replying a bit late!

[@jorfreleon6155]

​@@MaverickTHEHulKfreesync? Is that on the 2.1? Were you able to play 120hz 4k?

[@zac2641]

Do these lights get hot?

[@TrendingReviews]

Nope - not at all

[@petebuka]

Thanks for your review. On the fence .. looks like it struggles to reproduce Green. Not impressed so far. I will wait see if firmware fixest these issues or get a Govee when they do a 120hz.

[@mikeygriffiths2868]

You do relize none of them work properly hue govee and these hue are the worst ones with lag and black sense go white

[@Martin_why]

Dont want to switch port over the app... If PS5 ist on port should be on, if hor switch back to port 1

[@givibag2986]

Specs are good but man why color accuracy is so poor? I have very old Phillips tv and its leds on astroboy perform much better!

[@JasonHendry22]

ok buton on divice is a no sae nned to control box by a remote or even with cec. big shame. was geting exited.

[@cadettmahoney]

Hearing this has issues with HDR

[@Martin2521994]

Its to far from the Wall 🤦🏻

[@simon_1987]

Looks tacky

[@luckypanda6]

Great Video Thanks so much for showing off the new Lytmi 2.1 Sync Box. I also have the 2.0 box on my TCL 65-inch 6-Series 4K UHD Dolby Vision HDR QLED running off an Apple TV 4K. Ive loved the amazing experience its provided. But I have noticed that there is a delay from the light being showed to what the screen shows and wanted to see if the new 2.1 Sync Box fixes that. I wanted to see if you would be able to show how the 2.1 Box reacts to the 6 minute mark in this Pixel Refresh - RGB Color Test (4K) “video kzbin.info/www/bejne/goWQoIGcaKZqf7c” ? I have pre ordered the 2.1 Sync Box and I know expected shipping date is tomorrow the 24th but just to excited to wait and see how much better the processing is! Thanks Again for your Video you don’t see enough videos on this product as its such a huge enhancement to the entertainment experience!
