Note for those purchasing it... I had the "white glove delivery" and they bent the tv the first time they installed it and had to replace it. Basically, make sure you don't pick it up from the corners of the tv. Pick it up with one hand on each side and then one hand on each side of the base. You will NOT be able to pick up this TV with just one person - it's too thin and will possibly (probably?) bend. Added an image of where the direction say to pick up for the 65".
Feel free to ask any questions you may have.
edit: back when I got mine I got the Upsie [upsie.com] warranty for it (which covers burn in). Use promo code PLAYOFF for a 10% discount on the warranties. I got the 3 year myself but up to you of course.
3 Year Warranty - $153.89
5 Year Warranty - $341.99

Enter your info and you'll be redirected to Samsung's website. You'll see the TV listed as $16XX, but as soon as you get into checkout, it'll show as $1259.99.
Enjoy!
The first thing one sees when opening the box is an image clearly showing not to lift by the corners. There is no shortage of places to lift from, just stay away from the corners.
Glad I got this over the C2, as the picture is ridiculously good.
Only downside so far are the UI and remote as they kinda suck, but I use an AppleTV so don't really care anyway.

But really, having researched both the C2 and this, most people find that this yields a better picture. So in that sense Vision doesn't really matter and HDR10+ is enough and Samsung appears to have made the right choice.
Pulled the trigger on the 65" at $1400 with two years of Samsung Care+ during Black Friday and love the TV.

$1260 for this technology is a no brainer, if anyone is looking for 65" tv this is the second best rated tv released in all of 2022 and only beaten by Sony Master Series tv the A95K.
And for those of you who are concerned with firmware issue and HDR gaming, Sammy released a new fw update 1430.1 a day or 2 ago so far folks on AVSforum are saying that it is much better than 1420.9.
Thanks, dude! Was kind of a pain because it wasn't pulling down as an available update, but installing via USB wasn't so bad.
They have no reason to pay $0.01 for Dolby Vision when they are the TV Market Leader year in/ year out. HDR10+ is also supported by YouTube, Hulu, Amazon Prime, AppleTv, etc.
All they need is NetFlix to jump on board and this conversation will finally end/
Plus, the MSRP was recently leaked on the 77" S95C - $4500. A similar discount to this would bring that down to around $1900. Granted, that will take a year, and might not happen at all, but there will also be a cheaper 77" S90C model. Both 2023 models appear to have slightly thicker panels that almost certainly address the panel flexing issues with the S95B, and will be brighter as well.

I'd stick with Sony or LG. Just my two cents.
EDIT: Sorry, meant Dolby Vision
