Just to follow up on my experience this weekend:
EWR-San Diego, 6 hour flight, A319, no entertainment, no music, no power, but yes streaming movies to phones that run out of battery
San Diego - EWR, 5 hour flight (+2 hour on board delay), no entertainment, no music, YES power....but no streaming videos to phones! Plane looked new to me (fancy blue LEDs, smallest bathroom Ive ever been in).
Inconsistent. But consistently customer unfriendly.
You either get streaming movies or you get power outlets, but never both. Thanks United!
At least these folks got to watch Friends

On my San Diego - Newark flight there were 20 business class seats... and according to the app, 18 were upgrades
