There are a few broadcast 8k channels in Japan and South Korea. There’s some YouTube 8k videos and 16k is being worked on. 8k is pretty awesome, though I really just want 8k screens for large PC monitors. I currently use a 4k 43” and 8k would be even better at that distance. Both Samsung and Sony have 8k screens for sale right now and they’re not really that crazy expensive for cutting edge. (75” Samsung 8k QLED for $3k)
Comment on HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content

Got any of that juicy 8k content?
No? Because noone does and noone cares.

There are 8K cameras, but the only reason to use them is to create stabilized 4K content.

They are also important for VR content. You need a lot of pixels to fill someone’s Field of View.
