maybe i'm just old and blind but i can BARELY even notice the difference between 1440p and 4k if i very explicitly and intentionally look for it let alone the difference between 5k and 8k. this seems like so beyond unnecessary that it's absurd. i might be able to be convinced that you could notice on your 8k 65 inch tv if you were standing right in front of it, but on a 27 inch display that seems incredibly unlikely to me. also what world do we live in where a resolution that is literally above 4k isn't considered high resolution.
- jimrandomh 5y agoI sit 2ft from the 8k screen; it fills much more of my peripheral vision than most people's monitors do, and I position most things in the middle and never full-screen anything. Think of it like a multimonitor setup without the seams between monitors.
- kroltan 5y agoI have a 1440p 31 inch screen from which I seat about 1m away, and while it's finer than my previous 1080p one, In text or other fine features I can still notice the pixel boundaries. I would expect to notice them up to about 5k at this distance, but anything more would probably just be feel-good-ness rather than actual measurable difference, for me at least.
- kalleboo 5y agoAre you talking about for watching video? In that case I'm with you, but for text (using it as a computer monitor as the OP is) the difference is night and day.
- hahamaster 5y agoDepends on the screen size. On a 22" screen, the difference between 4k and 1440p equates to 200dpi and 133dpi respectively - if you can't see the difference between 200dpi and 133dpi, I'm sorry, but you have either poor eyesight or glasses aren't doing their job.
