Research shows 4K or 8K screens offer no distinguishable benefit over similarly sized 2K screen in average living room

  My 15 year old FullHD 48" LED TV is about 4 meters away from my couch and when watching a 1080p movie I can’t possibly imagine how a sharper image would add anything to the experience.

    Resolution wouldn’t make much difference but other improvements exist that could improve the image quality. If you have moving light and dark next to each other there can be a delay in the pixels changing colour or a bit of light bleeding across from one to the other. There is also how vibrant the range of colours are.

    Unfortunately these things are a bit harder to measure and show than resolution.

  Depends on distance and screen size. I think 4k is worth it. 8K not particularly
