4K, 8K, 1,293K is overrated gimmicks to me. I want to see actual improvements, not just how big the resolution can get and how much detail. The last thing that wow’ed me like that were movie theater screens. I’m not really that impressed with it. Also 60FPS shows and things are so off-putting!
I’ll be honest I’m with you on the world going to shit and all that but I can’t use 1080p after 4k it feels like blurry vision. I don’t know how you don’t see it as a significant improvement.
8k+ I don’t see any difference to 4k though, not at 20-30inch screen sizes anyway.
It just depends on the content. I have a 4K 65" TV that is at the upper end of mid-range in quality and 4K is definitely a noticeable improvement over 1080p in most instances, but a lot of the time it’s only noticeable if you’re specifically looking for it and doesn’t actually improve the viewing experience all that much. I do think it’s worth the upgrade though, just for the instances where it really does have a positive effect. Like, watching the Hong Kong fight scene in Pacific Rim on a good quality 4K display is just an entirely different experience than it is on a good 1080p display.
