This looks like a deal to me. I bit. I've been on the fence about getting a 4K set, because I've been waiting for the prices to come down or more content. This deal looked too good to pass up though a 55" 4K set with a Roku 4 included for $598. Not to mention you can add plus to your membership and get $10 credit for every $500 spent and also use a popular service to get 1.5% cash back.
What made me hesitant is you cannot find any reviews on this set online. But, other Hitachi 4K sets appear to be getting very good reviews in the UK. Also, the listed specs on this set are impressive.
I will give a bit of my impressions once I receive the set.
