By what I mean in regards to "depends on panel" is that some TV's have such poor Brightness and Colour calibration that resolution is less of a factor in the overall presentation of an image. (Aka. Resolution isn't everything.)

Secondly some TV's have scalers of questionable quality that may add noise or artifacts into the displayed image, in some more moderate scenario's you might get additional input lag.

Thirdly, some TV's will also do some post-processing on the displayed image to bolster contrast, sharpness, blur, or perhaps create an additional frame between two frames to simulate a higher refresh rate.

Then lastly there is a massive factor of panel size and viewing distance you need to factor in, there is a reason why PC gamers like the "smaller" more expensive details in games... Because we are also some of the first to pick up and notice them due to how close we sit to our displays.

I'm not disputing the fact that native content is superior though, but there is more to this issue than people actually realise.

Those pics are taken on a Monitor. Not a TV :) There is no post processing of the image.

I was using it as general example of course.
Also, some monitors will also upscale and add post processing to the image, but that depends on the panel and the market (I.E. Multi-purpose) it's geared towards.
