Looking to upgrade my television

[Carl08]

Hello all. Now that my audio system upgrade is complete I'm looking to upgrade my television. What I'm looking at is the LG 65UH7700 because of 4K and Dolby Vision. Any thoughts out there on this television? Any others I should consider? My budget is about $1400.00. Looking to purchase about the end of January 2017

I wouldn't buy LG unless it was an OLED. Stick with Samsung or Vizio for LCD.

Why not an LG? The cheaper Visio with Dolby Vision is the P65-C1

LG's LCDs are just not as good as the others IMHO. For OLED, they're currently ahead of the crowd.

All LG products I owned in last 10 years died prematurely. Don't buy LG unless you like to waste money
Costco has (members only) Samsung 70" UN70KU630DFXZA 4k TV for $1450 w/free ship. it's 120hz panel.

That television doesn't have Dolby Vision. Well, I might go with the Vizio P65-C1

Correct. It's Doesn't have Dolby Vision HDR, but it does support much much more typically used HDR10
Both Xbox One S and PS4 Pro support it. Netflix does both, depends on content. Amazon is HDR10 as well as Youtube.

I want Dolby Vision on the television because the new Oppo disc player will support it.

It supports HDR10 and later Dolby vision.

Nothing wrong to get vizio is it supports both, but I won't call lack of Dolby vision a show stopper.

Looks like the Vizio is in my future. Thank you!

The Vizio P65-C1 is beautiful but there is no freaking tuner in it!

Easily solved by adding a DTV set-top box.

I've been a cord cutter for years. Guess I have to try out the cord again
