I suggested this:

for $550

and she likes it, its pretty :), but we are not in the US and local Samsung does not even offer it yet so I dunno as she wants to get it by the end of Feb +/-.

Good suggestion) I love mine.
A practical benefit to the 4K screen is less eyestrain. Not sure why, I'm guessing maybe my eyes don't have to constantly adjust to the aliasing when the pixels get that small. My eyes get no less tired than when using an e-reader.
