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.

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. |

The LG or Samsung listed are not quantum dot version, just normal RGB filter with less color.
The Hisense one has quantum dot instead... not a very good comparison, right?
For the same tech, maybe compare to QLED version of the TVs.
For example: Samsung QLED [costco.com]
