Q: What is the advantage, if there is one, between the curved tv and the flat screen?

A: Side viewing angle and depth perception.

Q: Hello, Is is possible to get a different base stand in lieu of the two legs? Reason I am asking is my TV stand is currently 40" wide. I am afraid these two legs are father apart than that, which would mean this TV wouldn't fit on the stand I have.

A: There are two different positions to attach the leg stands, the ones that are on the outside of the TV are 40 1/2 inches apart, the inside position is 32 inches. Leaving you with 4 inches on each side.

Q: What is difference between models Mu6500 Mu8500 There is huge price difference I like to buy one tv now as my other tv stop working.

A: The 6500 has a motion rate of 120 Hz where the 8500 has a motion rate of 240 Hz and High Dynamic Range (HDR)

Q: I know the tv is 55 inches width. What is the height?

A: Clemson16, the height with the stand is 30.9 inches. ^Heath

Q: Can you lay the curve on its face so the legs can be put on?

A: There is a foam insert in the carton that is designed for this purpose

Q: WHAT IS THE MOTION RATE?

A: IT STATES 240 ON BOX BUT IT'S REALLY A TRUE 120

Q: If you have mostion sickness will the curved tv cause it?

A: I have had mine for a couple of weeks and the picture is unreal. A couple years back this would have been in the Magnolia Section for $5-7K. It’s almost 3D. You really do not notice the curvature after a while except you get better viewing from any angle. I do not think a person with motion sickness would take issue. I do plan to upgrade to a sound bar as the sound portion needs improvement.

Q: Is this remote voice command

A: Hello, this unit does have a voice interaction option on the remote control. ^Britt
