Best Buy is not a participating retailer for that promo

Edit: this TV also doesn't qualify for that promo. Check the "terms" link on the page you gave the URL for

Just got back with one of these and tried it out. Surprisingly good! There is definitely some bloom, but nothing too distracting. Even credits etc look fine, and letterbox bars are truly black. I find those to be the most important reason to have full array dimming, as I can't stand when the letterbox bars get brighter and darker on TVs that try to shift the whole backlight.

There seems to be a black frame insertion feature, which might matter if you game, but it does dim the image a lot, and has a perceptible flicker to me. I plan to just use the set for movies and sports, and turned off as much motion smoothing etc as possible, and am really happy with the results. No dirty screen effect that I could notice, and trying solid shades of grey, the panel looked surprisingly uniform. Overall it exceded my expectations, certainly at this price. Shadow detail in difficult scenes was okay, not mind blowing, but visible (as long as you don't use the "dark" Dolby Vision setting that is the default for some reason).

Unless you're a screen snob, have a preference for ultra-smooth "soap opera" effect, or want 120fps 4k gaming, I think most people won't find anything to complain about, based on the panel I got.

I was sitting on a pickup for a 55" u8g for $699. For $225 less (and an extra 10") I think I'll just keep this one instead. Hard to imagine finding more TV in terms of size and quality for under $500.

I've heard folks saying that this U6 model doesn't have the same picture quality as the Android TV edition - true?

Yes. The workaround is to use YouTube app on Roku. On the left hand side at the bottom, you'll see YouTube Tv option. There is t a stand-alone app on Roku for YouTube tv anymore.

Be careful. That's a U6GR.

The biggest difference seems to be that this one has fewer adjustments, so it may come down to how you feel about the out of the box picture. Thankfully it does have an "off" option for motion smoothing, but no more granular controls.
