They are pretty much the same list price/Gb as the 1tb 850s street price (meaning $treet on these will be a bit lower soon). Also, why drop the price when they are the only girls at the party? Others will join in later this year and the next round of price cuts will follow before year end.
After the numerous (and seemingly fundamental) problems with their TLC I'd be steering well clear of the 850 Evo until the dust has settled...
...that said I've been waiting for affordable 2TB SSDs to come out for years and hopefully these'll be down to merely the cost of 2x1TB drives within six months or so.

SATA SSD = the new HD tier.
HD = backup/ archive
SATA SSD = mass storage
SAS SSD = HA mass storage
PCIe SSD = fast
More exotic than PCIe SSD = too expensive but cool tech now.
Their endless firmware fix updates, and Linix trim problems.
To compare, I've had consumer Intel drives in use with no issues
Ditto that my G2 Intel is going strong, but in consumer setting my Samsung 840 Pro was mighty awesome, was the 1st SSD I got on release day I wasn't upset 
I did go back to a Crucial M4 and barely noticed though, so take that fwiw. The jump to m2 lil better than the 840P boost over the m4 as far as feeling goes, not benchs or sequentials.

Good news is that we can wait for retaliatory answer from Intel and other SSD manufacturers - 2TB SSD price war please
@neo That does make sense. I personally experienced the hell of the 320 series but so far the replacement drives they sent, with 1 exception are still working well. Only have had 5 of the 200+ Samsungs I have even experience a glitch let alone failure. That said, I don't use Linux on them and that issue is a pretty jacked situation! I'm buying S3700s for all my servers going forward though. Freaking LSI issues were a pain to deal with but I have worked that out for now (I think). Now Crucial drives - I've had sucky performance issues with those and a couple back to back failures on M4's so I don't buy those anymore at all. I say this while typing on a laptop that has an M4 in it. HA! 2TB S3710's at a lower price point are what I want!
