Wonder why? app needed updating?

To watch Amazon's 4K stream, you'll need a compatible 4K TV from 2014; Samsung, LG, Sony and Vizio have all announced that their sets will handle the updated app. As with Netflix, Amazon's 4K stream utilizes HEVC/H.265, so most 4K TVs from 2013 are not compatible. Sony's FMP-X10 player will get Amazon 4K streaming in spring 2015After initially failing to find the 4K/UHD section of the updated app yesterday, I contacted Amazon whose rep directed me to look for a specific "Ultra HD" tile (above).

This morning I re-checked a few of the 4K TVs I had on-hand in the lab -- a Samsung UN60HU8550, Sony XBR-X950B, LG 65UB9500, and two sizes of the Vizio P series -- and the LG and Sony showed the tile.
HMMMM Wonder why?
The Samsung and the Vizios did not, so I wasn't able to test Amazon's 4K stream on those sets.
