    Default Best Buy Boxing Day TV Quality?

    Looking at grabbing a new TV this year, anyone have any opinions on the two models below?

    Samsung 55" 4K Ultra HD LED Tizen Smart TV (UN55KU6290FXZC) - $800 Regularly $1300


    LG ELECTRONICS LG 60" 4K UHD HDR LED webOS 3.0 Smart TV (60UH6030) - $1000 Regularly $2000

    The LG 65UH5500 65" for $1299 is actually a really good tv, looking to pick one up myself

    *Edit/Update.

    I bought one of these today, as Visions posted up the same price as BB, but available for purchase today, BB was also only offering up shipping from their site, and at a $50 charger

    The TV is decent, not OLED quality, but its ok.

    Grey scale is garbage, but when do you ever see a full grey screen when watching tv, or movies anyway...

    it is a shame that its only 60hz native, but at the price for a 4k 65" I wont complain too much.

    If you have to ask you probably won't notice, but at that point a good argument could also be made to just buy the cheapest TV you can possibly find that is the size/resolution you want because the average person probably wouldn't be able to tell any difference.

    Like Mitsu said, if you go into a you don't care mode, you can get a 55" Haier for $530 and a 65" for $830 ($750 a couple months back). Both at Costco and 4K panels.
