Maybe the 625. The only thing it’s missing is a 120Hz panel but you won’t find many TVs with 120Hz panels in this price range. \r\n\r\nIt’s got 4K60 DV/HDR10 support and full array local dimming. Hard to beat for the price.\r\n\r\nYou can also get the older R617 for just $520 on Amazon. In some ways the 617 is better than the 625.

You'll have more luck of at /r/4kTV/ since your thread is going to get deleted. With a 4K TV, you want low input lag which on 4K tvs is hard to find. The current champion was released on 5/1/2018 which is the TCL 6 Series 4K TV. It boasts 12-14ms input where other brands are in the high 40+ms range. The TCL 6 series TV is nearly impossible to get right now, so expect 2-4 weeks shipping. You can get the 65\" for $999, the 55\" is $650.  \r\n  \r\nThese TVs are a hit or miss brand. Some people run into issues with vertical lines or dead pixels on arrival. If you run into this, keep the TV and use it until they can get you a replacement then send the old one in the other box back OR pick yours up from Best Buy and return it to store there.  \r\n  \r\nWhen I ordered mine, Best Buy delayed my shipping 3 times but gave me $100 gift card. On the 3rd delay I canceled my order and ordered from Amazon. I paid $30 for next day air but the package arrived 3 days late. Amazon rep was super unhelpful and gave me a ton of attitude. A manager got involved and gave me $200 off the TV and refunded my $30 shipping.  \r\n  \r\n55\": https://www.amazon.com/TCL-55R617-55-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B079N9HDNQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1525665963  \r\n65\": https://www.amazon.com/TCL-65R617-65-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B079NJMFL8/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics\u0026amp;ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1525667241\r\n  \r\n  \r\n  If you're really broke, you can get last years model which is one of the highest rated gaming TVs for 4K and it's on sale for $499 https://www.amazon.com/TCL-55S405-55-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B01MTGM5I9/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=152566733","subreddit_name":"xboxone","author":"Ohsighrus"},{"body":"55\" is available on Amazon now!
