The prices are coming down as expected but where is the content?

I will be looking at a 60" U8550.

Amazon has the 55" for $2,497.99 & the 65" for $3,497.99 ...

Yeah, I saw those. I'm out of the country right now and I plan on looking when I get back. Although, I dropped quite a bit of coin on new diamond earrings the morning.

I got the 65" 8550 last week.
Nice tv. Replaced a 6 year old Samsung. There is a difference in pq using Directv and 1080p material but not night and day. I have AT&T DSL and have yet to switch to Charter to stream 4k. There are a few 4k apps with the smart hub and they are spectacular. Motion is very smooth once you customize the settings. Watching sports with no blur or judder.
I may pickup the 4k video pack later this summer.

Looks like the 60" will be released June 2nd. I could buy a 55" and be disappointed in the smaller size, or I could buy the 65" and figure out an extended wall mount. Or I could just wait a couple of weeks and buy exactly what will fit the space.

Two weeks ago, we bought a 65 inch , 9500 Samsung Ultra HD tv with the curved screen. Enjoying every minute of it, amazing screen picture.. If purchasing a Samsung , ask if adapter cords are all included with the transaction. After installation we had to purchase an adapter as it was not included in the purchase, strangely. Had to go back to the store. & purchase the piece separately, still love the tv.

Adapter cord for what?
