8k televisor tv#
And even though the content is still more or less non-existent (more on that below), and we still don’t think it’s necessary to get into an 8K TV quite yet, they’re much more attainable than ever and worth keeping an eye on.
It’s only been in the last couple of years that 8K TVs have become more available and at prices in the same ballpark as some higher-end 4K TVs. In the following years, other companies began to show their own 8K TV prototypes and eventually start releasing them to the market, albeit at much cheaper prices than Sharp’s initial release, but still priced well beyond affordable. In 2015, Sharp would also be the first company to sell an 8K TV, another 85-inch monster priced at $133,000. While display panels had been shown earlier, Sharp showed off the first actual 8K TV at CES 2013 with an impressive 85-inch model. Just as 4K TVs were beginning to take off, 8K started appearing (and we’re sure the same will happen with 8K and beyond, forever). However, 8K is absolutely noticeable on larger displays, and the closer you get, the better it looks. Other technologies such as high dynamic range (HDR) can and do sometimes make a more visible difference, especially from a distance, since TVs show a brighter and more colorful picture with HDR. To more easily visualize it, imagine four 4K TVs placed in a four-by-four grid. Since we’re talking two dimensions here - horizontal lines and vertical lines - it’s actually a whopping 16 times the pixels of HD and four times the pixels of 4K: an 8K resolution screen equates to 7680 x 4320, or 33 million pixels (33,117,600, to be exact), instead of 3840 x 2160 (8,294,400 pixels).
If you use basic math, it may seem like 8K would provide double the resolution of 4K, but that isn’t the case.
