It depends on distance AND TV size.

Also believe it or not but there's a combination of these two where there isn't much of a difference between 720p and 1080p.

Try sitting 1 meter in front of my TV. You would easily be able to see the difference between 4k and 8k, so this grand epic 1080p would look like shit on that distance.

I tried that at a electronic store. There was no difference between them. As for gaming, you will only notice if you zoom in.p

And how exactly did you test that? Did the 8k TV even display a native 8k picture or was it just a 4k picture upscaled to 8k?
Even then, what kind of comparison did you have? Another 4k TV with that same video in 4k?

I'm sitting roughly 3m away from my 75" TV and I can see the difference between 1080p and 4k. When I move closer to roughly 1.5m, which is the distance I enjoy my 4k games and feel fully immersed, the difference between 1080p and 4k is incredibly noticeable. So much that a 1080p output will cause eye strain after only a few minutes.
