For that reason alone, consider the Costco panel.
I've had the 75u78g for 6 months now. Love it. Contrast, brightness and backlight make the TV Extremely bright. The picture quality and colors are nice. I appreciate the wide viewing angles - can sit at kitchen table or island bar stools and still watch a movie when all the couch seats are filled. 120hz and Xbox is truly an amazing experience. A lot of folks don't rave about dolby vision and in my opinion it's the real cherry on the top. Looks stunning on this TV - very polished content over HDRGoldenCanuck wrote: ↑ Please note that U78G 75 inch has an IPS panel ( unlike other sizes which have an VA) so contrast isn't as good. We ultimately went with 75 inch U68G from Costco since I think it will work better for us personally. The U7G has 120 Hz and other better features so it is a compromise.
You are correct. This is an excellent value TV and IPS brightness makes it great in bright living rooms.xTurboZx wrote: ↑ I've had the 75u78g for 6 months now. Love it.

Pull the trigger - you won't be disappointed. Mine has minor IPS glow top left. If it gets worse I will exchange. Otherwise A++

God bless.
I have a U78G 55” and I agree with everything you say, my only complaint is that my panel has one stuck pixel, however I can’t see it from where I’m sitting. I also want to add that if you get this tv, you might want to set local dimming to medium instead of high, it made the blacks look much darker to me while barely affecting the bright partsxTurboZx wrote: ↑ I've had the 75u78g for 6 months now.
