You can get a 55" 4k tv today for under $499...... And a 50" 4k TV for under $450. And with smart timing, around the fall season you will probably be able to get them for as much as 30% less.

No. In case you don't know (and i was surprised when i found this out too) The TVs with the flat out best response times are Vizio TVs. And you can get 4k HDR for as little as $600 and just 4k for under $500.

the Vizio, D series are the cheapest but onky support 4k. You can get a 50" for under $500.

The M series are the cheapest that support both 4k and HDR. And you can get a 50" for under $800. 

You can check amazon for prices and YouTube for reviews. Outside their remarkable response times they also offer industry leading "entry price" black levels due to their local dimming zones backlight tech. Big deal for TVs at this price point. 

So your prices for a 50'' 4K TV suitable for PS4 Pro have gone up from $450 to $600 to $800. After you rejected my objection (prices for a good 4K HDR TV with good response times way over $500) with a "No".

And you are still vaguely recommending whole TV model-series, not the best models within a series. Response times are often different for different models within a series, response time in HDR mode is often a lot slower than the response time with HDR off.

ok let me make this simple.

You can get a great 50" 4k tv for under $500 with response times under 20ms, this is exceptional for HDTVs considering what you get from the Sony or Samsung's are in the 60ms+ range.

You an get a 50" 4k HDR Tv for under $850 from a similar brand but at a higher model series which throws in things like a Tablet for a remote which is obviously jacking up the price with similar or at least better response times.

And having said all that, I am also saying that based on when you choose to buy these TVs you can get extremely great deals for them. You can literally end up buying a $800 TV for as little as $550-$600 and even less for a TV that started off at $500. 

Lastly, I'm.not vaguely recommending anythjng. I'm pointing out 50" tVs cause thats the size anyone that is price concious should be looking at. If you want the "best" of anything, then price simply shouldnt be a factor for you. And if that was the case, we won't even be having this converstaion.
