Looks like Costco has it for $1080. I know it's only $20 cheaper, but their TVs come with at least an additional year of warranty included and they are very helpful if you have any problems.

The KS8000 is $729 before tax again on Samsung's website, so long as you use their Employee Purchase Program benefits.

See the section slightly down that page detailing how to enable EPP. It's pretty tough to beat that price.

You can get the KU7000 (first link) for 600 dollars if you have Samsung EPP (so ive heard, i dont have it) Or 700 dollars if you buy through an ebay dealer called buydig.

Second best but within your price range

All day every day, this is such a great TV.

These are the two TVs you're after: TCL P607, though you can get the C803 from Costco for $550, lose some brightness and gain some sound, or a Sony X900. IMO the Sonys cost isnt worth it when you can get an extended warranty on the TCL and still save $400.

Also if your Mac Mini doesnt support HDMI 2.0 I'd recommend looking into a $199 Xbox One S - which includes 4k@60hz and Windows 10 App support (keyboard and mouse coming soon) and a 4K Blu-Ray player, not to mention things like EA Access for $30 / year if you ever get into gaming.

If you're looking for cheap, here's one: https://www.amazon.com/TCL-43UP130-43-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B01C6XHQ4Q/ref=sr_1_13?s=tv&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1494001411&sr=1-13&keywords=4k+tv&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011

If you're looking for something a little better: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-UN40MU6300-40-Inch-Ultra/dp/B06XGVQYQZ/ref=sr_1_16?s=tv&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1494001411&sr=1-16&keywords=4k+tv&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011

I took a look at the models that are around that size and in a similar price range. It looks like Samsung is priced a little more expensive than Insignia from what I saw. However, if you like the features more on a slightly more expensive TV, I can help you pick a possible time to buy.

I didn't see anything that was as comparable with LG in terms of size and price.

Seems like a pipe dream with the current market.

Probably the closest you'll get currently. Sony XBR43X800D 43-Inch 4K Ultra HD TV (2016 Model) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FWIEO2E/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OA0lybFY3A7T8

if you plan to keep this a while, id highly recommend getting the largest tv you can afford, that will fit in your space. My personal opinion, for most people, they will enjoy a larger screen over slightly better picture quality.

how far away do you sit away from the screen? A 55" 4k is a bit small, id be looking at a 60" or probably a 65".

on a quick look, this seems to be a pretty good deal Vizio 65" tvCheck out the black friday deals online, you may be able to snag something decent.

what brand of tv is your current model? I'm guessing an off brand based on the price you paid?

This Samsung 4k tv should work for you. It's 60" 4k, supports HDR isn't curved or 3d and is under $1,000.

Should be about as future proof as you can get given your price range.

That looks really impressive, 4k and has hdr. Is there any catch? Do you own it? Was looking for only 1080p, but this is an impressive TV.

EDIT: I've seen some people say the older model is better? https://www.amazon.com/Sony-XBR55X810C-55-Inch-Ultra-Smart/dp/B0148OZLOS

Hi, did you get this one? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BGC39VM/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3HPDAH8YPSNE8&coliid=I350CMOR889Z2N&psc=1 It's on sale right now and i'm debating getting it, any compaints after having it a month?

A quick look on Amazon shows this Sharp or this Vizio are the only options of name brands I've heard of before. Unless you're looking to increase the price, or go refurbished, or find something on sale.

Best bet is to pick out a few and read reviews. But from a quick look, I'd go for this Sony for $300

Just saw this one Amazon Prime day sale.

I went with this Sony 48" TV and I'm really happy with it. It's checked all my gaming boxes and the built-in speakers are surprisingly decent; we watched the new Star Wars on it and it actually sounded really good.

You'll have a difficult time finding a non smart TV. I was in the same situation as you last year, as I use my TV directly connected to my Gaming PC which acts as an Home theater PC.

I haven't seen this exact version with my own eyes, but I almost bought last eyars version when looking at TV's. For under $600, its a decent TV for the price:

There is also this samsung thats a little more, but comes in just under $700:
