yup, lowest till now was $825+tax free ship on the 617 (not best buy 615 version).

as long as you don't lose the screen lottery, it's a great va panel tv.

other than the usual gray pinched corners, my screen looks flawless.

i've tested the heck out of mine before hanging it flat over a wire chute;

you haven't really seen Pacific Rim Uprising till you see it in 4K HDR.
my grief thus far is the usb2 port is lower powered than i'd like, and
i have to reseat the batteries and resync this stupid remote weekly.
i was also surprised such a new tv is not ac wifi, but it still does both
2.4 and 5.0 up to around 170Mbps, more than enough for 4K HDR.
btw if you have ad blocking on your router, it kills all the roku ads laugh out loud

i do hope roku keeps improving their software, as it could still use a
lot of minor tweaks to make it more practical. it tends to detect many
devices, options and channels you won't use, and you can't hide them,
so making your tv more idiot proof for other family members is a hassle,
but i don't hold this against tcl roku since other tv gui's are a lot worse nod

i wish tv makers would just focus on better i/o for their panels
and leave the streaming box smart stuff for others to plug in.
In the spirit of St. Patrick's day, every time someone says "panel lottery" we'll take a shot.
Be prepared to wait a long time

Damn...I just got this at Best Buy last week. I imagine they can't price match bc it's technically a different model?

Did a ton of research and landed on this TV for my outdoor porch. I've had an alert for a month and pulled the trigger. Thanks OP.

I do have an 55" E7 in the basement for my PS4/Movie cave and I love it.

Want a 65" for upstairs. I don't want to shell out over 1500 currently and its traffic area with the kids too.

So tempting. Really want to wait for 65" OLED to drop under $1000 but this is a great price.

It does have ac wifi but there's something wrong with it, it's low rate even when next to the router. 173mbps here too but it is ac.

remote works fine, it's infrared. do you have a voice remote or something?
