However, while the TV will ship with a Roku Streaming stick as a surrogate smart platform, according to the report, it is not setup to receive native 4K streams from Netflix, or any other service. Considering that the vast majority of the available 4K UHD content is currently available in streaming form, that could be a major roadblock for those looking to go big with their 4K UHD purchase. It also may help explain the reason JVC’s new gargantuan display is priced around $2K below Samsung’s UN85HU8550 85-incher.

To remedy the situation, JVC representatives told Twice that 4K streaming support is “in the works,” and the company will be adding streaming capability once “a ready supply of native 4K UHD content is available.” But that may not be a satisfying solution for those shopping for grandiose 4K magic in the here and now.

JVC’s latest and greatest 4K UHD display is slated for release the third week of January at undisclosed select retail locations.
