Same. I can't tell a huge difference between 1080p and 4k, if I'm being honest.

[–] MightyGalhupo@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hell, I can’t tell ANY difference (though I do need glasses so maybe that’s got to do with it)

[–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Small print text rendering is where you'll see the difference.

Game graphics, whatever, but if you have to do a lot of reading or coding, you can make the text smaller and still stays crystal clear.

I see, that’s fair, my experience is pretty much just with gaming

[–] thespezfucker@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago

haven't tried it but I'm pretty sure you can't tell 8K from 4K anyway

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I can tell a difference, but not enough to be worth the cost.

[–] Kiosade@lemmy.ca 7 points 9 months ago

Yeah and once you’re deep into playing… you stop caring about that stuff and focus on the game.

Context matters a lot. On a 27" monitor, it makes a pretty decent difference. On a 50" TV at 10+ ft...meh?

1080 vs 2k is pretty clear to me, but I have a hard time telling the difference between 2k and 4k.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Can you get a 2k tv? I thought we jumped to 4k.

[–] qaz@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I have a 2k monitor, not a TV
