And he is saying basically what I said in that article. The resolution isn't making things better. Your eyes can't see the better resolution. Basically other improvements in the TV did and the fact the cost has come way down. The push for these is way over hyped. You would have gotten improvements from the 1080p as well. They just quit ****ing with them.

Your eyes must be going to shit. Get some glasses and a 4k TV, you can thank me later.

You really just need to take the "L" here and hit the showers.

The difference is even noticeable with a cellphone.

Are you watching actual 4k content or 720p cable upscaled?

There is a difference.

Although his predictions are a little off he is fairly knowledgeable on the subject.

It is a moot point anyway. The public started buying them so that is what they are making. They have come way down in price so even if 1080p were still going to be a thing they would be just about the same price anyway.

Weird argument you are making. The resolution is noticeable with a decent TV.

I will argue the bigger advancement in recent TVs may be HDR and wider color space.

It is pretty silly. 4 times as many pixels clearly equates to a very noticeable difference compared to 1080p. You can argue that it diminishes at certain depths, sure. But the difference is absolutely obvious. Diminishing with increased depth doesn't negate the physical quality difference.

Exactly. Arguing your eyes can't see it is silly. Even the usual charts of diminished depths seem off a bit from at few feet.

I watched Hunger Games in 4k last night. I could see the pores in Jennifer Lawrence's nose, make up lines on some actors and tiny wrinkles in their costumes. You can definitely tell 4k vs regular blueray.

65 inch, sat about 8 feet away.

I have a fairly new 60" in my basement alongside a 4k. I can see a difference, especially with nature documentaries.

The cost really isn't even any different. I actually spent less on the 4k than I did the HD. Whether it's overhyped and whether there is an actual difference are two different questions. My eyes see a difference, I know that.
