Nice, didn't think I was going to end up with a TV after reading the reviews on the Costco one but pulled the trigger here.
Nm! I see the difference, hmm.

Be careful. That's a U6GR.
U6G vs U6GR ( R standing for Roku... ? )
As others have commented, it looks as though they are very similar TV's ( we hope )
Early reports indicate good things.

Same TV
I didn't even see they had this one but missed it, probably would have got it there for the extended warranty, oh well. I was talking about the cheaper 55R7G5.

Just got back with one of these and tried it out. Surprisingly good! There is definitely some bloom, but nothing too distracting. Even credits etc look fine, and letterbox bars are truly black. I find those to be the most important reason to have full array dimming, as I can't stand when the letterbox bars get brighter and darker on TVs that try to shift the whole backlight.

There seems to be a black frame insertion feature, which might matter if you game, but it does dim the image a lot, and has a perceptible flicker to me. I plan to just use the set for movies and sports, and turned off as much motion smoothing etc as possible, and am really happy with the results. No dirty screen effect that I could notice, and trying solid shades of grey, the panel looked surprisingly uniform. Overall it exceded my expectations, certainly at this price. Shadow detail in difficult scenes was okay, not mind blowing, but visible (as long as you don't use the "dark" Dolby Vision setting that is the default for some reason).

Unless you're a screen snob, have a preference for ultra-smooth "soap opera" effect, or want 120fps 4k gaming, I think most people won't find anything to complain about, based on the panel I got.

The 3 year warranty is specific to the Costco version.

That's the Costco model (that one ends in "GR5", this one is just "GR")

What shortcut buttons are on the remote? Silly as it is, that's a big selling point for my wife.

If this TV is has a true refresh rate: 60Hz, then the motion rate should be 120 not 240?

Best Buy is not a participating retailer for that promo

Edit: this TV also doesn't qualify for that promo. Check the "terms" link on the page you gave the URL for

Correct - edited my post.
