Research distance to TV vs resolution. Anything over 12 feet and your visual acuity doesn't pick up the detail of 4K, but up close it's awesome. The limited 4K content at the time made me wait. Unless you are streaming a lot of data (might need a wifi upgrade) there's not any reasonably priced content out there. I have a Sharp, Visio, and a Samsung and they are all pretty close. They have enough picture refinement controls to look how ever you want. Refresh rate is the key for sports and gaming. Price and warranty ended up being the only real factors for me. The curve never got me excited, seemed awkward in the store but supposedly there's science behind it. I went flat.
