It cant be never ending... at some point screens will be better than our human eye's can perceive.... then it should stop. |
4K already reaches that with around 8 million pixels. Human eyes have around 4-5 million cone cells, which can detect color. We have more rod cells (90 million), but these cannot see color (or not much) - the reason we don't see much colors at night. Still, human eyes move around to cover bigger areas. Also the cells aren't distributed uniform, as the pixels on a screen are, they are concentrated in a small area. So, we can still get more from higher resolution - if we pay attention to pixels. The main reason though higher resolutions are made in screens is, that it makes a good advertisment argument: "Buy now the new screen - it has more pixels. And more is always better.
