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 attrocious bitrates services stream their 4K at. I do notice 720 is a bit "fuzzy", but that's about it.
Yeah 720 vs 1080 is very noticeable. I will say even 1440 has its place for specific types of displays.
But it all comes down to distance I think, the closer you are to the display the more the pixel density influences your experience; refresh rate is impactful at any distance and resolution
I prefer a sharper picture, I even play cod on 60hz mode just to see better, but I can't say I wouldn't enjoy it better at 144hz at the same resolution.
144hz is a game changer
Would be, but the series x 4k 120hz is so good, it can't even run on a consistent 1080p 50hz
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.
I always use the resolution above my screen's on youtube, because the bitrate's so bad, and the difference is very very noticable on monitors
