A new study published in Nature by University of Cambridge researchers just dropped a pixelated bomb on the entire Ultra-HD market, but as anyone with myopia can tell you, if you take your glasses off, even SD still looks pretty good :)

    If you read RTINGS before buying a TV and setting it up in your room, you already knew this. Screen size and distance to TV are important for determining what resolution you actually need.

    Most people sit way too far away from their 4K TV.

      My father in law loves to sit and research… that’s his thing… made a career out of it yadda yadda yadda…

      He asked me about a new TV… I was like…well have you seen rtings.com?

      My MIL had to remind him to eat… lmfao

      He just rabbit holed for days. It was like he clicked a TV tropes link or something.

      Anyway, he made a very informed decision and loves his TV. Haha
