4K tv's are worth it for 4K discs alone imo.

Beware, 4k discs are most often a "scam" (for purists who only want real 4k). Still now, most of the time the final master is at 2k, studios upscales the 2K image to 4K and retouch the content for 4K UHD TV thereafter.

I know. But alot of the classics like E.T. were shot of film and when done right, really take advantage. I wouldn't even bother with newer movies until they use better cameras.

I am more amazed about people still not able to spell his name correctly than what that guy actually says.

What if I'm throwing in an extra "t" in it? It makes him sound more badass. As if he's here to rid the industry from its broken routines and inefficient behaviour. He is: The Patcher!

I still don't get why so many people are obsessed with resolution.

What?? Is this guy for real? 

Seriously, 1080p TVs were being sold waaaay before the cable companies started providing HD content for it.  Now, were the people who bought them early morons?

And is this guy supposed to be "an expert"?   wtf?

I agree that 4K-TVs are for morons. The feature a 4K-tv has, that I would like to have in my 1080p-TV, is 10-bit pixel depth (of course after the industry settle for a standard for this).

Heck with my viewing distance there is no real difference between 720p and 1080p.

Well, in a 32-inch TV I can totally see the difference between 720p and 1080p (But I cannot see it on my 22-inch monitor).

And I ve seen a couple of 55-inches 4K TVs and I can tell you that the difference between 1080p and 4K is even bigger.



Everything Patcher said is garbage.

So using my trust Patcher translater... He actually means:
* Xbox One X is a resounding success.
* 4k Televisions are for Intelligent people as you are future proofed for years to come.

He's probably just talking out of his ass for some of that clickbait ad revenue.

 

He'll probably be buying a 4k TV with it and laughing at us.



I am not rushing out to get a 4k TV, however I expect in sales this year I probably will get one post xmas. That said who gives a shit about 4k signal, I can't remember the last time I watched something broadcast by one of the TV stations. Digital content is all I consume now and that isn't likely to change with 4k, will probably also get an XOneX after xmas to replace original Xone.
