Leave a bright picture on for a couple hours. Picture test. Leaving it on as often as possible. Testing all the inputs/outputs even if I'm not currently using them.

I bought the 65"version of this tv about a month ago. The picture quality/color is great, but I have had problems with the picture being "choppy/jerky"on some programs. I'm usually able to fix, or at least somewhat fix, the problem by changing the picture mode. I haven't really taken the time to look into the proper fix for this problem, or to figure out if it's an issue with the tv. Anyone else with this tv have this problem? Anyone know the fix? The samsung this tv replaced did not have this problem, and neither do any of the other tvs in the house, so I don't think it is a box/input issue.

I got walmart to price match amazon so I would have 90 days to return it to the store if I had any problems. So I still have around 60 days to figure out the problem or return it. Since this thread started about price, I paid $1450 new, and walmart knocked off another $75 because the tv wasn't at the local store by the guaranteed pick up date. I probably would have gone with the refurb for the lower price if I hadn't already purchased, but I thought I was getting a pretty good deal at the time.

Yes, you got a good deal for a brand new one. The 65s were $1600 new last time I checked on Amazon

Y'all...holy frick. I fired up a random nature vid (pic of snake is the thumbnail) and just sat there with my jaw on the floor for 3 min. This is my first 4K tv and I had no clue how stupid awesome it would be.

Ran picture tests and found 0 dead pixels. Some scratches on the back side near the power input, but nothing major. It came very well packaged with bubble spacers and a light wrapping on the tv. I was worried about the packaging based on some reviews but it was very well done.

Buy with confidence baws. Deal of the year.

They will call you, but you can speed it up by calling Baton Rouge Cargo once the AIT tracking website says "checked into delivery terminal."

Yes, buy another.

I never followed through with this due to skepticism, now i am rethinking...

This is coming out soon though which looks intriguing, reviews will be rolling out soon enough ($599)
