New TV - sh.itjust.works

For real though, I’m rocking 1080. Is an upgrade to 4k worth it?

Depends on screen size and distance. He’s a nice graph:

I do recommend an OLED or QLED, though.

Perfect answer. For most people, no. I actually did make the jump to a 4k TV and sit close enough to it that I can visibly see the difference. About 8 feet from a 65" TV, still barely in the “Ultra HD Worth It” category.

It truly is ridiculously large for the space, everyone who visits us comments on it. My wife likes to joke when we watch Make Some Noise that the people are “life size”. If you don’t have a small living room and aren’t planning at least a 65" or larger TV, than it’s almost certainly not worthwhile.

Crazy to me that most AAA console games push 4k as the standard at the expense of 60FPS, given these realities.
