Actually, there are still not many 4K channels, but the box puts out a 4K signal and the TV displays it. The TV will upscale the picture.

I do get 4K on Netflix, but I had to subscribe to 4K to get it, and stream it through a Roku Ultra box to the TV via the HDMI switch. My TV is a 2014 Samsung, so I think the newer TVs have these port inconsistencies figured out by now.

One thing I never got to use was the 3D glasses that came with the TV.

No one “broadcasts” in 4K, but as you mentioned there’s plenty of 4K movie content. And it’ll definitely be compressed via streaming — it’s okay. Blu-Ray disks the best way to go if you have a RedBox nearby.

Yea 3d tv never caught on.
I have a very sweet 50” Panasonic Plasma TV in the living room.
Has 3d but i have hardly ever used it.. maybe 10 movies..believe it or not the best 3d effects i ever saw on it was from home made youtube videos.

Bought a budget 4k 43” Roku TV on Amazon for the bedroom...checked out a 4k Coral reef video from netflix when it arrived and i was blown away.
Seemed like i was one with the reef!
If that is budget quality i can only imagine what top line OLED 4k must be like..
