Update 10/15/17
This tv is still perfect. I haven't had 1 issue. I love the plasma level blacks and everything still looks like HDR. I reccomend staying away from the day one update though. It takes away the best framerate developers option.
UPDATE 5/24!
Still a picture perfect tv in both day or night! This is the most amazing tv I've ever owned! While it's no X940E or Z9D, it's not far off at all !
UPDATE 4/28!
This tv beats any oled! After seriously extensive calibration stress testing, I can confirm this tv is 99.99% perfect black with local dimming on high! If you think that's a big statement buy it! This image will absolutely amaze you! Zero clouding, zero light bleed, 99.99% perfect black no joke! Over 1K nits, insane feature list, great oled killing price, and so much more! DO NOT let this tv pass you by! I will update with more pictures at a later date if possible! In the meantime, check out my channel to see this tv in action! Youtube QUANTUM APOTHEOSIS!
NOTE: original review was done by eye, and I only a short time testing. Updated reviews will reflect most recent thoughts!

Cons:

Annoying input layout from past years
Buggy UI
Glitchy screen mirroring (S6 used)
Could be brighter for HDR sometimes
No X1 extreme chip
A more expensive X930D
Lacks Xtended Dynamic range control in HDR mode
Overall, don't like clouding on such a high end screen without local dimming on. Doesn't allow for higher calibration control! However, is very faint, even with all the set backs it is brigher than the X930D with new features to replace the 3D! The image with local dimming is breath taking and will make you wonder how you ever lived without such a great image! Go for it!
