The U6GR5 is NOT THE SAME TV as the U6G currently reviewed by Rtings.com The U6GR5 is a newer TV, made exclusively for Costco.

The U6GR5 uses a different panel and electronics than the U6G. Same panel manufacturer but different specs, see here [reddit.com] and here [reddit.com].

Rtings has also stated [rtings.com] that the U6GR5 is a "different TV" than the U6G they previously reviewed and have purchased this U6GR5 and is in their queue for a future review.

Lots of reports of halo effect from the FALD.

Quote from jerflash :
I am returning it tomorrow to Costco. It is so bad that even my wife who could care less said to get rid of it.

To get a better look at what I'm talking about I put the TCL 646 next to the u6gr5. This is one of my sons sensory videos. Actually one of the best tests for blooms I have ever seen. Look how bad the blooming is on the u6gr5 is! Unwatchable. https://i.imgur.com/8BpytD1.jpg

The extra 250 is very worth it. You can even do the TCL 635 with the same panel if you want Roku.

I am professional audio and video specialist. Weather conditions will effect your tv,regardless covered or not. Get ready for lot's of service calls. I suggest you to build case just let screen exposed. You will have better chance hopefully. Good luck.

Bought this for my office, for late-night TV viewing without waking up the kids. I ran the vegetable video, and mine has very minimal blooming. I compared it with my other two (much more expensive) TVs, and I don't see any differences in blooming worth mentioning. Certainly, nothing like the other guy's posted photos. I did tweak a few settings on the U6GR5: turned the brightness to normal, changed to color balance a bit to get rid of a bit of the green, and changed the contrast a little. The colors are good and the blacks too. I'm pretty happy with it. I have a fancy color calibrator that I use on all my TVs and monitors to make sure they look as good as possible. I haven't run it on this TV yet, but I'm not sure I even need to, since it looks good enough as-is.
·
I just picked one up on Monday, the 90 day return policy made me feel more comfortable doing so. After having the TV a couple days, I don't have any desire to return it. Picture quality (from my very unprofessional opinion) is beautiful and colors seem punchy but realistic after some calibration. I have some hesitation around the brand and was hoping for 120hz, but this tv checked all the other boxes at a great price and so far so good.

Nobody's 100% AFAIK. The R stands for Roku instead of the standard Android on the U6G. The USB are 2.1 on the Costco unit instead of 2.0. I have yet to see confirmation that the panels are the same
