The Note 4 is currently the most recent phone of Samsung that is still top quality and it does NOT bend and has SD card slot + swappable battery.

I haven't seen anything like that here. But I also added a metal protection frame which adds a layer of rubber so I wouldn't be able to see it anymore anyway Laughing

But yeah, this phone is brilliant - especially for emulation. Nice bright colours, big screen and the stylus is perfect for NDS games.

At least the Galaxy Notes don't drop in price as much as the other Samsung crap devices.
Which is bad for me, because i'm still waiting for a good price on the Note 4 Crying or Very sad

Looking for some feedback here, please. I have the opportunity to pick up this tv for $1k brand new.

http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN60JU6500FXZA

I'm not too familiar with the overall "4k" deal but would it be worth it to get this TV simply for the price and just see how things work out when it comes to actual 4k content (when it's available)?

I do know 4k is more of a hype/buzz word since it's not quite 4k quality, so I'm looking for other aspects on this, please. Thank you!

4k is more than a hype/buzz - it's useless and pointless on a TV. On a computer screen it would make a lot more sense but on a TV? If you set a few feet away, it's impossible to tell the difference between 1080p and 4k. And sitting closer than that is idiotic as well and not needed.

So 4k is useless if you don't utilize it, obviously. And utilizing it is stupid in your opionion. Why is that fact though?

Im sitting too close to my television for 1080p. My next tv will be a 4k one.

people will always talk like that if new things come out. oh no smartphone screen to big no one needs that... a few years later it's standard.

normally this comes from people who can't afford something good.

@ freiwald
That is one explanation Smile

Though I myself say 4k is useless for everyone I know, though, because they are so far away from their sets, that they cant even fully appreciate 1080p.

If you have higher standards, you should though. Dont trust them. Smile

No, utilizing it means sitting too close to your screen than you ought to. You won't properly see all of the screen when sitting that close, making it useless. It's not rocket science.

On top of that, almost nothing supports it or uses it. Perhaps 5-10 years from now ... when your TV will already be outdated in every other way Laughing

What does properly mean? Have you noticed the FOV of your vision? Why is anything less (and by a huge margin so) definitely useless and not just your opinion?
Again, I already sit close enough for 4k to be very useful.

1080p scaled to 4k can produce slightly less aliased images for movies. Of course only useful if you sit close enough to notice such things in the first place.
And my TV's only source is a PC. So I've got a source here.
Also why are you so sure, that 4k sources will take 5 years to come up? Considering there is already small amounts of it and I believe the 4k bluray should be signed off this year.

So, I'm getting that it is a fantastic deal on at least a decent/good TV in which I will need to wait some more to truly appreciate what it is capable of due to lack of content? Would this be accurate?

Thanks all for the feedback so far. Sorry to cause such a fuss.

For only a thousand bucks, it's a decent performing big TV. As for 4K, who cares whether it's useful or not? Unless you're paying 500 more for a 4k TV when you can get the same TV at lower res, it doesn't matter.
