I went ahead and returned the tv.
I have xbox one s and put on Batman V Superman in the blu ray ultra hd format and it looked amazing.
However, My internet service is capped at 18 MBPS at my house so I wont be able to stream 4k / HDR content ..
Couldnt really justify the 1500$ tv and only be able to watch true HDR by buying discs ..
This TV was badass , but didnt look much better streaming cable vs my current Vizio .
Hopefully this time next year OLED is a little more affordable , and i'll pull the trigger on one.
Enjoy !

If your company has an employee purchase program with Samsung you can get this TV for $1150 after tax. I really wish I needed a 65" right now

My company's EPP shows the price to be $1499? What am I doing wrong?

$1150 after tax is ridiculous low. You sure that's a 65KS8000?

Yeah it is. Isn't working for some reason now. Looks like a ton of people were able to get it for that low of a price.
I see that as the list price but when I add it to my cart it goes back to $1,400. Going to try and see if I can convince someone at Best Buy to price match.

It's through my company. So I guess 4 years ago lol

Gotcha.
People are speculating on slick deals that if you opened one recently (like yesterday or today) they disabled you from getting that $1,079.99 pricing.
Sucks.

I'm not saying the price will go down on Sunday but check the price after Sunday

Also, there are significant Apps missing from Samsung's platform it appears. Watchespn, MaxGo, PBS, and a few others I watch a lot of. So adding some sort of Set-top box will likely be a necessity anyway. I was hoping to be able to get rid of the extra cords and just use the native apps built in to the Samsung platform
Should have gotten a Sony then.
Sony has Vue, Slingtv, WatchESPN, Kodi, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, PBS, HBO, Showtime, etc. Not much it doesn't have.
