[QUOTE="KenMasters, post: 936959, member: 517"] 4K is not a standard, it's a resolution. The current TV standard is Ultra HD and it has always offered two additional resolutions, 4K and 8K, it's just that the 8K panels are only becoming available now. In the same way 720p was initially available before 1080p came along. . It's more about the need for the pixel density than a native resolution of 8K, the intention is to better serve ever increasing screen sizes. Regardless of content, 8K will replace 4K as the standard resolution for larger TVs. It is the ideal resolution for a display as it exceeds our own ability to resolve the image (assuming the full screen is kept within our field of view). Ultra HD is a very forward thinking specification. The specified colour gamut matches our own visible spectrum, which we're only half way to achieving. Peak brightness is also set to match our own true to life viewing conditions, and with that we're even more behind than with the colour gamut. So I wouldn't stress about 8K, it's just another milestone in the slow march to Ultra HD. [/QUOTE]
