Well guys. It's official. 8K TVs exist and they are already here
Well guys. It's official. 8K TVs exist and they are already here
8K has been out for years. People have been to cheap to buy them is all.
nobody cares
our eyes arent good enough to tell a difference
That depends how big the screen is
ok, visionlet.
run along into a pole and let the people with superior genetics discuss these matters
We never needed anything better than 720p. 1080p is good for sports only. Everything else is just masturbatory.
If you're sitting that close to the screen, stahp.
The biggest 16K screen of its kind will shortly go on show in Japan.
Sony's display has four times as many horizontal pixels as a 4K television and eight times that of a regular 1080p high definition TV, meaning it can show images in far more detail than normal.
The 63ft by 17ft (19.2m by 5.4m) screen is currently being installed at a new research centre that has been built for the Japanese cosmetics group Shiseido in the city of Yokohama, south of Tokyo. It is so large it will stretch between the first and second floors.
I got bad news for you user, you need glasses.
wow, I never thought we'd see the day that a display could actually resolve your penis in more than one pixel.
...isn't 4k around the resolution of the human eye? at a certain point you reach the point of diminishing returns..
Nah, 4K actually works well for vidyas. Whenever you render live graphics, you get aliasing. Even the best AA in the world doesn't look as good as true 4K. 8K might get rid of some minor artifacts like the glitter effect on some textures, but we're well past the point of diminishing returns.
diminishing hivemind
What?
You do understand it's about the number of pixels in the screen, not the picture quality itself right?
now they just need to make some modern video games that are worth playing. I don't care how good GTA 5 etc look, i'll go back to san andreas or morrowind every time because it's actually fun.
Some people are more sensitive to this than others. Most people don't notice a big jump from 720p to 1080p but I can tell a massive difference from 720p to 1080p and from 1080p to 4K, they all look considerably different to me. Yes 1080p looks really good so maybe not a massive difference from 4K but it is absolutely a noticeable improvement.
You dumb fuck. If you make screens twice the size, you need to double the resolution for it to have the same image quality.
It's both, really. Pixel count affects pixel size.
Fuck off plebs, this is the real deal.
It's not both, it's only pixel count
A tiny screen and a giant screen with the same pixel count will clearly not have the same image quality
I guess. I agree there's a lot of shit out there, but I dig a few modern games. Days Gone is fucking great. Glitchy, but when it works, it's a blast. I actually liked GTAV story mode. RDR2 was great. The RE2 remake was pretty fun. I just got MK11, but haven't had time to try it yet. Hopefully it's decent, I only got it because they finally got Baraka back in.
I was born in '94, before you say anything
And two screens of the same size and different resolutions will have different pixel sizes. So it will affect quality.

>pic related
The spin kick still gets me to this day.
Turn off your tv and go out and watch reality.
You filthy jew. How big do you need your fucking TV to be? At a certain point you run out of fucking real estate to house it.
Wait for a 4k VR headset to come out and you can have a perfect image the size of an IMAX theater if you want, you cunty twatbear.
You aren't getting it
It was in response to higher resolutions being pointless because of the human eyes resolution, which is irrelevant because it depends on how big a screen is.
8k on a phone screen would be unnoticeable, but on a giant screen it would matter.
Maybe you live in a shoebox, but I have some pretty big walls that would be good if they were screens
Great. A whole wall that's a screen. Maybe I can hop on Fathead and get some football decals and turn my floor into a miniature football field, with a stack of kegs against one wall, and a bunch of old budweiser posters with girls in bikinis.
Ah, to be 22 again.
Its almost as if the cinema industry exists for a reason
I haven't been to a theater since 2007. It's just a bunch of douchebag 15 year old dudes talking and fucking around on their phones, assholes who bring their crying babies because they're too much of niggers to get a sitter for the night, or insufferable teenage girls who distract you from the movie and won't fuck you without you dosing them first.
Which is a great example of why a wall sized screen at home would be good.
Why you getting upset over big screens user?
I just slap on a pair of VR goggles, load up Skybox, go into the void theater, load up any movie (works great for 3D) and watch on a screen the size of a planet.
720 for movies is fine. I don't care. 1080 for monitors is also fine. The only time resolution matters is for computer monitors.
is this any different to thinning the bezels of 'normal' displays and placing them in a matrix?
But why? Tentacle pron?
>spend years amassing a blu-ray collection
>4k UHD blu-ray becomes a thing.
>soon 4k UHD will be outdated
ffs, can we all just agree to ignore these latest trends?
underrated
This is about the difference between a single display and the capability of the video rendering engine.
A large screen receives a single stream of video data. Multiple screens process segments of the fill video stream. The size of your matrix of displays may depend on the limitations on the encoding protocol or the multiplexer if the stream is being decoded in a master-slave scenario. Each display is ultimately responsible for rendering that stream as quickly and accurately as possible, so the higher the video resolution on a display, the greater the challenge to faithfully render that stream.
I see. thank you user.
Bill Gates claimed back in the day that no-one would ever need more than 640k.
Maybe you're the next mogul?
Hey I jerk off without a tv
Why not just go laser projection and have no pixels?
Apples and Avocados. While his 1080p argument does fall a little flat, at a certain point, no matter how large the screen is (wait till you grow up and have the argument about the screen size and where it goes in the house with your girlfriend/wife), at a certain point the DPI starts going to exceed the human ability to see that level of detail.
I know you want to be tied down in ethernet cords and whipped with a bundle of fiber optics, and have hot high speed data coursing into your ass while wifi radio waves gently flow across your cock, but you really can take the whole technofetish nonsense a bit too far.
How boring
Right? What kinda fag goes outside? Fucking niggers and cancerous sunshine is out there.
He probably only goes to get tranny blowjobs.
