LG 75" Class (74.5" Diag.) - UN8570 Series - 4K UHD LED LCD TV
$899 from 1/17 - 2/7
Budget tv with current gen gaming console hdmi 2.1 goodness...
and "real" 120hz native refresh.
Rtings dropped the ball on the value of this tv, for its size and gaming input lag, and resolutions supported + price point.
even the 65" @ $629 was enticing me, plus the 82" and 86" are regularly discounted, but glad I waited for the 75". For gaming I love this size now on my Sony 850E and xbox one x / ps4 pro.
Now I'll be ready for the series X, ps4 pro, gaming video cards, etc with 120hz input @ 4k displayed natively whenever I get the source content.
And a reputable brand (been scared to buy a vizio M/P/PQ...) . Plus Costco warranty/return policy...for gaming/ganers, its like this tv was built with that in mind 1st and foremost.
Theres debate if VRR is supported but if not it likely will be. Still a badass 120hz @ 4k / 1440p / 1080p capable tv @ 75" for $899 is hard to beat...
FYI firmware notes mention freesync support
and RTX 30xx improvements:

Don't worry about the wife. They like em big too, just don't know it yet! Gotta ease it and they are hooked!
The q80 has much better picture quality.

now that Im seeing LG Ad's not mentioning those features anymore . Where before they said "may not be availabke at time purchase, will be added later vis FW update"....and explicitly listed VRR and Freesync on these same ads.
Crutchfield and many other panel sites and retailers still have vrr and Fsync listed for thie un85xx models but LG prob not offering up the changes/issues
/delays to their sales partners
I still like it as a decent 75" gaming cenric tv for the price that will still perform fairly well with xbox one x / series x / s —- but the real solid next gen gaming tv's are at least 2021 models if not further out.
Ive seen wt least 2-3 brands that rushed to say all the catchphrases and keywords have issues already
and including OLED's (they suffer from major issues with VRR, or they did ) so dont think those
Are immune..,quite the comtrary i believe...
Qled will definitely look better, does the refresh matter more to you? Id wait and get an oled when they become more available. They just look so much better
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This.
Bro people have probably already bombarded you, but the Q80T is a sick TV. Apples and oranges.

They came picked up my TV on 12/22/2020 and I have yet to receive my refund. I'll never buy anything again from Costco that I can't personally take to the store myself to return it.
My TV was a lemon and the delivery guys that picked it up said they've seen a bunch of those getting returned. But if you get a good one and don't have to deal with COSTCO returns, then you should be fine.
