I'm looking into 4K TV

CNET reviews are pretty much my go-to for this stuff.  But the question that's still tough to answer is how much noticeably better, say, a 1080p set for $1400 is vs. another 1080p set for $800 (or, for that matter, the $2300 one I mentioned).  Like a few of us have said, in-store displays aren't a good indicator because of lots of tricks to make the more expensive sets stand out.

Beyond CNET, user reviews on Best Buy and Amazon probably give you a decent perspective on whether or not you'd be happy with an $800 tv.  TV's are kind of a commodity now, and I doubt you'd be dissatisfied with a highly rated $800 model.  Vizio, which used to be a worse-than-budget brand, now apparently makes several well-regarded models.  But at 50", I doubt you do better than $700-$800.

Don't know if you have a surround system, but your overall experience might be better to save some money on the tv and put it towards audio.
