Baby 4k tv. Anyone have it yet?

[123]

its clear for broadcast. I have a 55 inch tv as my main computer screen, and the pixel pitch is huge. 1080P is way too stretched on a screen that big.

That's because you a using a TV as a monitor. Try use a 1080p 55" monitor. Resolution is just fine. Probably cost the same as a 4x TV. lol

Sorry but you didn't get anything correct there. Whatsoever.

I'm by absolutely no means a technophobe, or a Xenophobe.

A hand crank on a model T is a shitload more useful than a 4x television.

THIS NEW TV IS SCARING ME!

People said the same thing about CDs, gaming, etc... It's just part of the technology evolution. It will most likely become standard one day, right now not everyone wants/needs it.

There's a difference with that tech. There was obvious practical gains by using that new tech. I can't find a practical gain for a clearer than HD picture.

just save face and stop.

Save face over what? New shit scares you, I get it.

It's not scary, I just don't need one, on account of: I don't need a > 60" TV for my ~20 foot deep living room. 1080 already pushes my visual acuity in terms of angular resolution at the given distance in my house.

For me, it's the moral equivalent of buying speakers that reproduce 40KHz tones. Sure, it's a technically superior product, but I can't tell the difference (and neither would most people, since average hearing range is 20Hz-20KHz).

As our screens get bigger...

yeah... monitors and TV's are the same thing now for the most part.

Also, you trolling. You know 55 inch monitors dont exist outside of a few rare medical displays that cost a bazillion dollars.

oh man I really want to leave society

Monitor and TV are most definitely not the same thing as monitors have a much higher pixel per inch (ppi) density.

Staying abreast of bleeding edge tech is part of my job because that's what my execs want and it just so happens to be something I enjoy as well. Winrar!

That has exactly the same pixel density as my "tv" (ppi)

@fly Time to take this thing seriously yet or just gonna keep burying your head in the sand?

I never said it didn't exist. It just doesn't matter. In the same way that 3D doesn't matter. But by all means, please be a sheep.

BAHHHHHH

Weird, I can't find the PPI rating of that LG monitor.

 

[123]

3D! I saw that gimmick from a mile away! Pretty much dead after 2 or 3 years?

its 1920x1080 pixels over a 55 inch spread. Thats fixed ppi of 40.05 no matter the display type.

Yep. Total waste of time.

4k otoh with proper source material will be pretty slick IMO.
