As TVs get bigger, so do their pixels, the tiny dots that make up a picture. So if you're shopping for a really large TV (70 inches or larger), the extra resolution of a 4K Ultra HD TV compared to a regular HDTV makes a lot of sense. With four times the number of pixels of a 1080p HDTV, 4K Ultra HD TVs have smaller pixels, which translates to a sharper, more detailed picture. LG sells a fair number of 4K Ultra HD TVs and you'll find a few of them for sale this holiday season.
One that comes in at the sweet spot between massive size and relatively affordable pricing is the LG 79UB9800. It measures in at a whopping 79 inches diagonal. The list price on the set is a bit steep ($9,999) but Amazon has it on sale this week for 40% off - $5999.99 with free shipping. Plus they have a special 15% Buyer Reward program going on that will get you a 15% rebate (in the form of an Amazon promotional credit) 35 days after purchase. This brings the net purchase price down to a low $5099.15 after the promotional credit. Here's a link to this TV deal:
The 79UB9000 is a full 4K Ultra HD TV with four times the resolution of a full HD 1080p TV (3840 x 2160 resolution). The panel features a 120Hz native refresh rate with backlight blinking that enhances that to an effective 240 Hz rate for clear motion reproduction. The IPS panel ensures minimal picture quality loss or color fading when viewing off-axis. It comes with four HDMI 2.0 connections (with HDCP 2.2) so it's ready for today's native 4K content as well as legacy SD and HD content which it upconverts to the panel's native resolution.
The set is also fully streaming-enabled with LG's new WebOS-Based Smart TV interface and Magic Remote. This means you can stream Netflix, Amazon, Hulu+, YouTube and more without the need for a separate streaming box.
Pricing is current as of the time of posting the article but Amazon may change that without notice. Details on the 15% Rewards program, including which models are eligible for the promotion are included here:
