Seems to be the pattern. Plasma to lcd to led to 4k. Just wait awhile and its something new. ThanksSports wise until they start showing games in 4K ( cameras) your not going to notice the difference that you want when purchasing one....I'd wait a bit for them to come down in price too.
4K is overkill at this point due to the lack of 4k content out there. I'm not switching to a 4K set until 4K is standard for streaming services and new Blu-Rays.
Mine get demoted to bedrooms or usually give my old ones to my mom.Me too... What the hell and I'm going to do with my 55 LED Samsung when they do.
I have one but would be lying if I said I can see a difference, nothing like the difference between SD and HD. I'm anxious to see if 4k blu-rays will be noticeably better. I have Amazon Prime but bandwidth often means 4k content is in 1080 but even when in 4k, I don't see a difference.

What kind of time frame we talking about?Wait for the prices to come down as the content becomes available. Then, 4K OLED. Looks damn nice.
Also until gigabit internet is widely available streaming of true 4k will be iffy.
I know there was a news article about gigabit coming to Lincoln. Believe entire city to have it by 2019 IIRC. No mention of price though. With gigabit would definitely want a bad ass AC router etc.What kind of time frame we talking about?
I'm hearing a lot of posters that don't have 4K TVs tell you that they are not worth it. I currently have both a 55" Samsung 4K and a 65" Samsung 4K and everyone that comes to our house and watches TV comments on how amazing the picture is. It takes a little tweeking but the picture even on non 4K programming is so superior to anything we have ever had that its amazing. As reference we previously had high end Mitsubishi and Panasonic plasma televisions.Thinking of upgrading from 55 inch LED to 65 inch 4k. Are they that much better? Better picture? What else?

What kind of tweaking? Thanks for the input.I'm hearing a lot of posters that don't have 4K TVs tell you that they are not worth it.

Out of the box the picture was good but not great. In fact we were really disappointed with our 65" 4K straight out of the box. Wife got on the Internet and found a site listing some experts ideal picture settings for our set and it made a world of difference. Picture went from pretty mediocre to outstanding. Took her about 10 minutes and a little trial and error but like I said.....a world of difference.What kind of tweaking? Thanks for the input.

wait............................Dolby Vision is right around the corner[/
I know right? When it comes to technology I'm a complete embarrassment. Fortunately my wife is a Tech genius so I let her borrow my man card when tech solutions are required.Am I understanding correctly that your wife fine tuned your 4K TV? Were you sitting there watching?
If so, please turn in your man card at the front door on the way out...

-Actually have to shut off the 4K feature on old sitcom's/movies (makes the sets look too fake)
GBR
Correct. If you can't see the difference between 4K and 1080p then not sure what to tell you. I have a 65" Samsung 4K and its sweet. Watched Narcos on it and it was amazing. 4K then 8K. That's where we're headed. Not sure why you would want to invest in anything but a 4K now. It would be like getting a vcr/dvd combo player when blu ray is the way to go.4k is the native resolution of the tv. There is no way to turn this off. No matter what signal you feed it (480i, 720p, 1080i, or 1080p), the television will be showing an upscaled picture for all material not shot in 4k.
from everything i have read, it sounds like 2016 will be the year of the 4k---in other words, more and more 4k will be available. so, if you are in the market for a new tv, i would definitely consider going 4k---if your budget allows it---i imagine you will see some drop in $ as 2016 goes by.
