Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 week agothink of the demos you see in stores showing off 4k TVs… that quality is noticeable.
Because stores use a high quality feed and force you to stand withing 4ft of the display. There is a whole science to how Best Buy manipulates TV sales. They will not let you adjust TV picture settings on lower margin TVs.

Yes, obviously, and consumers who are buying such high-end displays should do their best to provide the highest quality source to play back on those displays.
Distance from the display is important, too. On a small TV, you’ll be close to it, but resolution won’t matter as much.
But from across the room, you want a higher resolution display up to a certain point, or else you’ll see large pixels, and that looks terrible.
Personally, going with a 4k TV was a big leap, but the addition of HDR and an OLED display (for black blacks) had the most impact.
