I have heard of this, I think it is really cool.

I cannot see the difference between a 720p vs a 4k tv at a few feet away.

I have watched 0 hours of tv so far this year.

I am not sure how many I watched last year, but I remember testing a LaserDisk player so it was at least a few hours,

then some girl made me watch some guy torture people in his cutthroat kitchens cause he liked it.

Maybe with all the 5g coming online I will re watch Diehard or something.

Haven’t shopped for a TV in years.
But at the time someone told me to stand WAY BACK and compare them.

At that time the expensive one kind of jumped out at you?

So I spent the extra bucks.

The closer you are to a 720p display, the more you should see the lessor resolution compared to 4K. Move back 10 feet or so and the 720p resolution becomes almost comparative to 4k, providing the displays are the same size. I was sold on 4k a few years back when I saw in a Best Buy. I have two 4k tv's and will never go back. Even though 1080i is better than 720p, 4k is like looking through a window.
