We're already at the point of diminishing returns in my opinion, I literally just came back from JB Hifi where just for reference I checked out the 1080p/4K screens and the difference is negligible.

It's such a waste of processing power when that same power could be used for things that are actually noticeable like better lighting, effects, materials, etc.

The ps4 pro isn't that much stronger then the ps4 yet it can give the resolution a big bump.  It's not as tasking as you think and will become pretty easy by the time ps5 hits.  It's the new standard and a needed one.  After 4k we might not need to go higher but we shouldn't settle at 1080p.

4K is four times as many pixels to fill as 1080p. Spending quadruple the power on making the picture a tiny bit sharper is hugely wasteful in my view. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a scam to try to get people to buy new TVs.
