Considered it but just not into it, still doesn't look great in the day time. I want to be able to watch football in the afternoon with the shades and windows open and have a nice bright, clear picture. Room darkening in the daytime is really a downer.
I'm jelly... that 75 inch must be noiccceeeeeee.
You won't need to move the bracket. Just keep all the screws they give you so you can put them on the new tv.
Hmmm not likely the mount would work, there aren't many wall mounts for 85" TV's, there's hundreds of options for 50-65". Like others said it's based on the VESA standard so you'de have to check.
I'm not the handiest guy but wall mounting a TV is one thing I can manage myself. It's probably easier than you think.
Bunch of them now and they range from 45-85 inch for some brackets.
When would 8K content even be available? 4K finally will come in next year.
I think VR is all hoopla.. nobody wants to wear those headsets.
They have centered and non-centered mounting patterns on the back of TVs. Non-center is lower. You may have to move the wall brackets, so it all depends.
Take a look at the TV mount height-finder tool from Sanus, a brand Best Buy carries. http://shop.sanus.com/en_US/ When you get to step#5, you'll see what I'm talking about.

Just buy a projector and make the whole wall your TV.

I got the LG UH9500 at Fry's last week:http://www.frys.com/product/8726891
Fry's email promo...$1,200 off. Paid a total of $1,450 for the 65" and delivered this weekend. Incredible deal - I'm a believer in Fry's now!

bumping up this old thread
does anyone know if wall bracket points (width) now are standard across all new LED type TVs - so lets say I buy a 65" Samsung LED TV for my living room , realize it is too small for the large area and end up swapping it for an 85" Sony LED -- will I need to move the brackets out again.
Also for TV wall mount instals -- has anyone used Best Buy services ? Or just going with your local handy man (as we have done so far ) is probably ok ?
thanks

VESA standard? I think you will need to look up the VESA standard on both TVs.
A quick search found Samsung 65" with 400x400 and Sony 85" with 400x300.
Your mount should support multiple standards, but you probably don't have the details for that. I'd guess that it supports both.

Just make sure the weight requirement on your current mount is okay for the 85". The VESA pattern should fit.
I think the mount for our 46" will fit on a 65" (which actually weighs less because our old 46" is heavy).
