4K is currently limited to 60hz in 4K mode.
Higher hz are possible in lower resolutions
Which 4K HDR TV are you planning to buy for Scorpio or One s?

is it just me or do the newer 65inch tvs look like they have smaller screens than older 65inch tv's? I have a 65vt50 plasma in the living room. Went to go check out the 2017 LG 65inch oled..and it looked hella small
I am on 75 now but previously 65 and before that 55...
Anyway the jump from 55 to 65 is significant and 65 inch is the sweet spot.
It all depends on how far away you are from the set, what resolution the content is, so really, 65" is not the "sweet spot" for everyone.
Oh you!
We know every bodies needs are different but coming from smaller to larger 65 inch is a favored size. In my situation I sit close to all of my displays and started with a 36 inch CRT HDTV all the way up to the 75 inch I own now...each upgrade I felt maybe I should of went bigger until I hit 65 inch. Why do I have a 75 inch now well...why not? Bigger isn't hurting a thing

I'm about 10' back from a 92" projector screen, where the projector is 1080p. I cannot make out individual pixels at that distance. I can sure tell when a bad transfer has happened to a Blu-ray disc and also tell you how crappy Comcast cable looks on alleged "HD" channels.
There is no substitute for immersion, in my book... as long as it's a quality image. Most movie theaters still have projectors at 2K (1080 vertical line equivalent) If you can't go big at 4K, then when can you?
If my projector was 4K (can't wait till the day it is) I could definitely go with a bigger screen. Not sure if I will or not, though. I'm sure it will look a lot sharper on the 4K content, even at the same screen size, though.
Well according to science, I'm going to need to sit close to a 65" inch TV otherwise 4K won't matter. Lol
I am looking to go from 55 to 65 inches. Since I haven't tracked this stuff closely before, what sort of price drops (percentage) would you expect waiting until the early part of 2018? Someone told me that tv's drop in price around March when they announce the newer models. If I'm going to save more than 25% waiting a few months, then I will. I figure the true impact of X1X won't really be felt until either Red Dead or Anthem release anyways.

I've been scoping those out too. I actually switch to monitors for online shooters and play everything else on the tv.
Monitors are tough because there isn't 4K HDR freesync 2 monitors yet. I think they're releasing this year for a small fortune. I'm thinking freesync 2 could be more important than 4k as far as monitors are concerned if Microsoft takes advantage of the technology. Will make a difference for frame rate and screen tearing. Been reading online and gamers who have monitors with similar tech swear by it and feel it's much more impactful than resolution.
Man you aren't kidding, Comcast "HD" channels are atrocious looking, they just HAD to have a zillion HD channels so they compressed the channels so they could fit 3 or think 3+ HD channels in one QAM. Cable is NOT the way of the future, IPTV is for sure.
True 4K games are on the Pro now and will be on the X before those games which I doubt will be true 4K release.
I have my TV. I just need the X.
Nothing fancy. But I got all the features I wanted. 4k, HDR , 60hz.
If I ever get another screen I may go for the G-sync monitors.

Yeah the quality is piss poor for the most part. Like I'm watching some HD channels and it compares favorably to maybe random garbo youtube stuff most of the time. I really don't get it.

Yeah I remember before I bought my TV I was worried about moving from a 44 inch to a 50 inch, I thought it may be too big for my bedroom. Now when I look at it if I decide to hang it on the wall the 50 inch may be a bit too small lol, could easily go 55 since it'll be sitting about a foot and a half further back.
Think I've decided to target the 65" 2017 Samsung 8500 curved. Appears to be the sweet spot for gaming and price. Only reason I'm sitting back is I won't be taking in too much 4K content before X1X launches and I'm hoping that there will be additional price drops between now and the end of the year. Retail is 1800 with open box around 1600. Anyone feel there are better values for 65" staying under 2K in price? It's use will likely be 70/30 gaming vs TV/movies.
Nice! That's the one I have (I love it)- of course, it was 2500 when I bought it (after tax)! Great TV (low Latency with HDR in game mode!), though Val will Poo Poo it because it isn't full array.
Actually scratch that- I have the 2016 model. I can't say anything about the '17s. I imagine they'd be better, but you never know. Does rtings.com have reviews for them yet?
in my bedroom I have a 48 in or 49in whatever size it is..but its a Samsung suhd js8500.. Good set but it has alot of clouding in the corners...but I wanna sell it and get a LG 55inch b7 oled.. And then also sell my plasma in the living and replace it with a 65inch b7, then ill B straight
Well the 2017 Samsungs are edge lit and not as good as the 2016 9800
which is Full Array.
Only LED sets that hold a candle to OLED's are the Full Array sets with the 930e from Sony being the exception as they have neat little tricks they do with the edge lit lighting.

Bad Clouding is because of it being edge lit.FYI Panasonic and Sony also offer good oled sets.
Not sure your budget...
I've heard the new Panasonic 2017 oleds are really good, but cant find any for sale..are they out yet?
