It is noticeably sharper than 1080p, especially when you see them back to back. Even the non-HDR displays looked very nice. I dunno wtf is wrong with Walmart's 4K TVs that they look so shit. Shame I won't be able to afford one of these displays any time soon. |
What material were they playing on it though? At my local best buy all the 1080p sets display a standard hd cable tv channel, 7-8 mbps mpeg2 720p/1080i feed, while the 4K sets display pristine demo material at higher than 4k blu-ray quality with enhanced HDR footage. Perhaps Walmart feeds the same shitty feed to all tvs? I wish these shops were more honest and put a blu-ray next to a 4k blu-ray to actually see the difference. Then you can actually walk back and check at what distance/size it's worth it for you.
