It's actually cheaper than that,$928, but it's a crappy TV:

Who would really care about OTA tuning functions anyway nowadays?! Most people subscribe to cable or use netflix and other streaming functions when they actually watch tv and a lot of TV's nowadays are used for nothing more than computer/console monitors.
OTA tuners are VERY important to cord cutters GStan.
We can't watch sports, weather alerts, and news without live local tv. PlayStation VUE only has live network TV in a handful of cities, the rest of us have to switch back to OTA for live news and sports.
Vue gets on demand versions of network tv, you can watch series the next day.
RE: Sam's Club Black Friday 4K TV Deals - RolloTheGreat - 11-04-2016
In the USA, the only "live" tv services we have are Vue and Sling TV, both are as I've described Vue.
There are roughly 84m cable and satellite subcribers in the US:
http://www.fiercecable.com/special-report/top-9-cable-satellite-and-telco-pay-tv-operators-q1-ranking-comcast-to-twc-to
There are 124m households in the US:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/183635/number-of-households-in-the-us/
So 40m of us have no live sports, news, weather alerts without OTA digital tuners.
I should note the largest issue with that tv is the poor performance and image quality. I only noted the tuner because it's an issue for cord cutters.

Quote:Not good for a PC monitor. Although the input lag is good, it doesn't support chroma for clear text. Lots of motion blur results in a trail following movement.
I'm thinking you'll buy one of these tvs just because the reviews say it's bad, and start yelling about how they don't properly calibrate or use the right settings.
RE: Sam's Club Black Friday 4K TV Deals - RolloTheGreat - 11-05-2016
Quote:As soon as viewers are slightly off axis, the picture deteriorates. It has one of the worst viewing angles that we measured.
Quote:The TV has a full-array backlight, but doesn't have good local dimming performance. The entire screen dims, including bright objects, and highlights flicker.
Quote:Fast motion appears blurry
Quote:Cable content will also look soft after being upscaled. Small details like the small ripples on the sail protective covering are lost.
Quote:The Vizio E Series 4k 2016 is an terrible TV for anything with fast motion. During fast moving gameplays objects will have a long visible trail that will follow them.
Quote:This TV is horrible when it comes to dealing with motion blur, there is a long trail behind the logo that can be seen fairly well. The response time is quite high as well with most of the transition taking a fair amount of time. The backlight of the TV isn't flicker free, which may annoy some.
I see what you mean GStan! If you don't watch TV (on the TV), or play video games where things move around, and don't mind it flashing at you, and only have one chair right in front of it, this is a mediocre TV!
Of course if you do all those things everyone does with a TV it's kind of a piece of crap, but who cares as long as you get one free, right? Shilling for Vizio these days? Or just trolling, as usual?
Vizio has some good TVs, this one is not among them.

Frankly I don't think your ratings site knows what it is on about with the chroma content. The HDMI input will be emulating a DVI connection when the TV is set to PC mode. Digital RGB signal + h sync and v sync. No chroma needed or wanted.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI
Quote:To ensure baseline compatibility between different HDMI sources and displays (as well as backward compatibility with the electrically compatible DVI standard) all HDMI devices must implement the sRGB color space at 8 bits per component[.[6](§6.2.3) Ability to use the YCbCr color space and higher color depths ("deep color") is optional. HDMI permits sRGB 4:4:4 chroma subsampling (8–16 bits per component), xvYCC 4:4:4 chroma subsampling (8–16 bits per component), YCbCr 4:4:4 chroma subsampling (8–16 bits per component), or YCbCr 4:2:2 chroma subsampling (8–12 bits per component). The color spaces that can be used by HDMI are ITU-R BT.601, ITU-R BT.709-5 and IEC 61966-2-4
No, you're not understanding. Most 4k TVs do not support 4:4:4 chroma. This can make a big difference for the clarity of the image and the text. This is a very important feature if you're planning to use a 4k TV for PC use. It's quite hard to find a decent 4k TV that supports 4:4:4 chroma. The manufacturers never list it in the specs and you're forced to read reviews or rely on anecdotal evidence.

GStan is not here to "help the community" or "post valid information".
GStan is here to troll me, and post things that mislead people so he can laugh if they follow his advice.
He knows $16K Yaris's are nowhere near as good to own as $50K pickups.
He knows these TVs suck, and HiSense ones aren't much better.
He knows there isn't much difference in PS4s and XBones in most games.
He probably knows PS4 Pro is Crossfire, and he probably knew Eurogamer had re-tested XBone and invalidated his statements on XBone BluRay.
He knows 4K BluRay missing from Pro is a big deal.
He just posts the opposite of what he, and everyone else, knows to get some sort of charge out of arguing.

You thought I was not helpful and a troll, and GStan was helpful and not a troll.
Since then you've seen me helpful with good information and polite, and GStan wrong and trolling.
The destruction of your world view in relation to this issue causes you anxiety.
Sort of like I felt voting for Billary. I've never voted for a Democrat in my life, yet I had to admit she was the lesser of two evils in this case. (LOL- and she may even be going to jail while in office)
You watch- it will be on Eurogamer that PS4 Pro is basically Crossfire and GStan will say he never said it wasn't, or that it is what he said it was.
GStan is either wrong a lot, or just trolling. BTW- if it IS a single GPU that disables half the stream processors, I'll not only I admit I was wrong, but apologize to GStan.

OK, but this isn't a good TV for that either. Besides the 4:4:4 chroma issue, there are the response time and horrible motion handling. The only reason anyone wants a 70" "computer/console screen" is to play video games and response time is one of the more important criteria?
Quote:long visible trailsThe response time on this TV is 34ms! (on my TV it is 10ms)

No. Flickering trails following things moving on the screen, blurry text, and bad viewing angles are part of a monitor as well.
The main thing is: You cant convince me anyone is buying a 70" TV without the intention of watching TV on it. This is a bad TV.

34 MS is nothing in terms of TV response times, most of the TV's on the market would be worse than that.
Bad motion handling is caused by TV's interpolating tuner input and inserting additional frames plus other "IQ enhancing" manipulations. It shouldn't happen on other inputs or it should be able to be disabled if it is happening. If you can't disable it then the TV really is cheap and nasty.
Poor IQ when upsampling content under 1080p to 4K is (unfortunately) a common trait of cheap 4K TV's and this one appears to be no different.
Why would you think you know these things and the review site doesn't?
From the review of my TV, Sony XBR65850D:
Quote:Lowest 1080p input lag is achieved under 'Game' picture mode. The 'Clearness' setting under 'Motionflow' can be used to clarify action some more and won't increase the input lag (although it does darken the screen). 1080p input lag also stays low enough for some slower games when image interpolation is turned on, which is something that can't be said for most TVs.
They obviously understand interpolation and game modes in their testing?
They state on their drill down explanation of motion blur testing:
Quote:Motion blur that you see on TVs influences how blurry fast movement appears to be on the screen. For the most part, motion blur manifests as a trail on moving objects, and is of particular importance for sports and video games. If you enjoy watching either of those things, it’s important to get a TV with minimal blur.
When evaluating motion blur, we photograph the appearance of blur on the TV, and then test for pixel response time and overshoot time, as well as whether is flickering on the lighting.
I know you like to argue and say cheap TVs are good, but this TV has issues.
A gamer would be better off with a good 65" from Vizio that is only $1299 at Best Buy any day of the week:
http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/vizio/m-series-2016
Does it make sense to spend $928 on a 70" tv that is rotten for gaming when you can get a good 65" TV for gaming for $372 more at most? AND you don't have to camp out at Sams for Black Friday, and battle mobs like an hyena in the jungle scrapping for a deer carcass?
Not in my world. Wouldn't buy something junky when I could get something good for a couple hundred more.

Quote:Are PC games not HDR?
1) You must have a newer nVidia graphics card
2) You must have a hard wire connected Shield TV
3) You must have a game that supports it
As of this moment the only way to get HDR on PC games out to a display is if you can check all three of those boxes. Doom 3, the original not the remaster, started off internal HDR rendering(now they almost all do internally)- unfortunately we don't have any PC monitors that support the standard(for consumer displays at least) nor is there a clear cut adoption of what color space to use for outputting it(TVs have adopted a DCP3 standard in a Rec2020 package).
The only reason the above works is because Shield TV has been pushing to keep the latest and greatest features checked for a streaming box, we get PC games working with it as a side benefit.
RE: Sam's Club Black Friday 4K TV Deals - RolloTheGreat - 11-07-2016
GStan, you can squirm, troll, and misdirect all you want, but the Sams Club Black Friday 70" TV just isn't really good for anything a person would use such a device for.
I do think you should buy one though.
As far as the 4K HDR content goes, when movies I want to see are available for rent in that format, I'll rent them.
It looks like the new Star Trek movie is in HDR, I'll ask my wife to check if they have it at the video store next time she's there.

For me personally, no I wouldn't purchase it (then again I wouldn't purchase most 4K TV's on the market). Others might.
Real life is definitely complex for one of us.
I don't look at a pretty uniformly bad review of a TV like this one and think, "Well 70" TVs at this price point are pretty bad so I guess this one is OK compared to them" like you seem to be doing.
I look at that review and think, "I'd better get either a really good 60" tv for my $1000., or try to find a fair fair 65" TV for close to this. 70" is out of my price range."
When I bought my TV this summer I knew I wanted to spend $1500-$2000 and I looked at the pros and cons of all the TVs in that price range and tried to decide which would be the best for my room and uses.
I did not say, "Yay, Haier has a 75" 4K TV for $1300! The specs aren't very good, but they never are at this price point and size, so the TV is OK.".
Nobody smart shops like you appear to.

I've never felt insecure enough that I felt I had to compensate with material possessions or social networks full of people who don't really care about me.

Well 3 Titan Xp 's and 3 Sony TV's should make me feel better about myself since I have no friends and a small penis.
You know what I'm feeling right?

I'm not happy with my 55" 4k RCA TV. The colors are really terrible on it. I will be buying something better once my student loan is paid off in about a year. The Sony looks really nice. Prices should drop nicely for me over the next year. Next year's black Friday is my goal.

You've pretty much got to spend over a $1000 to get a good tv. GStan duped you with his tales of HiSense bargains
You don't have to get a $4000 OLED to get a good TV, but you need to spend that $1000 at least. (although OLEDs reign supreme)

If I were to guess what you're feeling it might be, "Gosh I wish I was the son of a cotton plantation owner in 1850s Alabama".
just joking with ya.
