My uncle just got one. It wasn't expensive at all. Sharp Aquos 65" for $1399. TV looks no better than my 47" Sony HDTV, but he also got an uplscaling Blu-Ray player and upscaled Blu-Rays look great. So take that for what it's worth.

no reason go buy 4K yet there's really no content for it. It's like when blue ray first came out there were maybe a handful of blue ray movies. TV makers need gimmicks to sell TVs

Was going to buy a Samsung 4k SUHD but I think I'd rather wait for a Samsung OLED to go on sale.

$741 for this a good deal? How does this compare to other 65" TVs? What is the standard going rate for a good 65" TV these days? Not very knowledgeable on this stuff.
Amazon product ASIN B00QTDTVOS
What's this OLED stuff all about? Is that much better than 4K?

OLED come in 1080 and 4K .... Is a different technology in where the TV has individual led (pixels) that light up to give you the color. In addition they have like 3 sheets of colors (RGB) that give you all the colors in the gamet and have infinite motion rate.
The 4k you looked at is good but 2 years old and stuff he changed a lot. It's not an adroid which most sonys are now and the color contrast etc is not as good. I suggest a 850D Sony or ks800 Samsung or above for both.
They are HDR which is also new tech is going to upscale all the feeds put into it and overall they are better.
The OLED are expensive and what you would get for a 55 you can get for the 930D 65 Sony and still have for a soundbar.

^The deal for $741 ended up being a scam. They wanted me to email them first before I bought it and then pay with Amazon gift cards. Thankfully I'm an NTer and smelled that scheme quick.
Ok so I just took a look at both the 850D Sony and KS800 Samsung you recommended. They seem to be running for $2k which is within my price range but I'm not looking to spend more than $2k. Are there any options closer to $1.5k you'd recommend? Also, in your experience where is the best place to buy a TV? Is it a good idea to get any insurance or whatever the big box retailers will offer? I was thinking of just ordering through Amazon Prime.

I purchased a 4k tv on Super Bowl Sunday and couldn't be happier with it. There isn't a ton of content just yet, but the content that is available is

look at the KS7000 Samsung or 900C ... Be warned you'll lose a few options that I believe are crucial for this price point tv and future ... Main one HDR ... They both are compatible with HDR but can't produce HDR. In other words they can read it has HDR but that's about it. On the 900C Be careful because it's a super thing tv and some of the tv have light bleed, meaning that in dark rooms and or scene you can weeknight coming from the bottom and corners. Doesn't mean they all have it but it's a well known problem. Both are around 1799 on sale. If you want one for cheaper look at the 810 Sony .... You will however lose the further features like Triluminus which is a big deal for me because you lose the saturation and vibrancy ...
In regards to tvs go to Best Buy. They have a great return policy and can walk you through the purchase. PC Richards I'll stay away from and amazon, well I won't see what I'm getting which is big for me.
In addition, Best Buy prices matches so I can care less about Amazon prices.
In regards to extended warranty, it's up to you. I personally get it for piece of mind. A lot of stuff can go wrong with electronics from factory defects to normal wear and tear and unforseen events like power surges and stuff.
The good thing about BB is that for a 65 inch they'll come out and survice the TV of something goes wrong ... If they can't fix it they'll replace it.

4K TV prices are dropping exponentially and I'm thinking of pulling the trigger. May just wait until Black Friday to score a solid deal on one but I'm definitely itching for one.

My Dlp 1080p tv finally went down, so I went ahead and bought a 4K with the dolby vision processor and 240 refresh rate. The picture is amazing, especially when streaming 4k content.
For those considering a 4k tv, make sure that you buy one that has both HDR formats: dolby vision and HRD10. HDR makes a huge difference in the picture quality. The HDR format war is full swing snd it looks like HDR10 will win out, but dolby vision has the better pictue and cannot be added to a tv that wasn't equipped with it. HDR10 capability is rumored to be able to be download through firmware updates.

How much is this tv going for?
I'm going to be searching for a new tv when I move...So I'm looking into models that released last year.
Not sure my wife will approve a purchase of a super expensive tv though lol

Prices are pretty good right now. LG and Vizio are the only major manufacturers equipped with the dolby vision hardware. You should be able an an LG Super UHD tv with web operating system 3.0 dolby vision and HDR10 right now for between $1500 and $1800.
Be patient and wait until the holidays and prices should be even better.

That's an amazing set man.
OLED is REALLY nice, but IMO not worth the price tag at the moment.

OLED is the best looking tv in low light circumstances. Nothing out there can touch it. However, the Sony Z9 looks like a beast.
The 930D is a very nice tv. However, if you don't calibrated or update there are a few things that get me .. Especially the blooming u see from a side angle. And it gets extremely hot.
