Reasons not to get a curved TV?

[Domo]

I've been putting off getting a new TV but I'm going to take the plunge. I just cannot decide between flat and curved.
It's either the KS8000 or KS9000. One is curved - the other isn't although the 9000 does score slightly higher in Samsung's PQI rating.

It's not going to be wall mounted - we have a giant TV cupboard which can easily accommodate a 65" TV.

Ruled out the KS7000 because I don't like the stand and too many complaints about the back popping off.

A friend at work keeps telling me the panels are manufactured in different places and the 9000 is the one to go for in terms of build quality. Is there any truth in this??

Ultimately - I need someone on here to make a decision for me

Thanks for the responses. If it's true they're being phased out in 2017 then that's good enough for me. I'm not a fan, but the PQI for curved is higher.

KS8000 it is then

So you're going be buying an LG OLED then ...

What have you done!

Just looked on the Currys site and spotted the LG OLED55B6V for £1799. Now I'm really stuck. Some cracking customer reviews but going to look at some professional reviews now. Need to understand input lag and general compatibility with consoles (have a PS4 pro).

Had totally decided on the Samsung after seeing the quantum dot tech in action. Hadn't considered OLED at all.
