Ehhh I mean… outside of up close, high res gaming? 4k doesn’t matter, it’s an excuse to an extra 1k onto the price tag of a tv or monitor. Refresh rate is way more important.
My TV is 4K and I wouldn’t know if I’m watching something in 4K or not unless I was scrutinising it. Especially the atteocious bitrates services stream their 4K at. I do notice 720 is a bit “fuzzy”, but that’s about it.

Maybe because your TV is too small?

4k is not about a sharper picture, neither was 1080p. The sharpness was already good enough. The point of the increase in resolution is larger TVs at the same sharpness. Back when I had an SD TV it was 576p on a 28” screen. When I moved on to 1080p I got a 50” TV. Notice how the size and the resolution increase are in the same ballpark. Now with 2160p I have a 77” TV, so there is still a little wiggle room. I could get to 100” at 4k before I would have to consider 8k.

TVs got larger over the years, and that was made possible by the increase in resolution. There is still some room for growth in 4k.

Probably. It’s only 65’.
It depends a bit on your viewing distance. With 65” you should probably at about 1 to 1.5 meters from the screen.
