Expensive 1080p VS Cheap 4k: Can You Tell The Difference?
Expensive 1080p VS Cheap 4k: When Can You Stop Telling The Difference
Subscribe: bit.ly/Sub_to_TheGamer
Should you buy an expensive higher end 1080p TV or a cheaper lower end 4K? The low end theory suggests yes, if you’re gaming a certain way. If you’re gaming on a smaller screen, because all those little pixels will be tightly condensed, you will not really see a difference if you multiply the resolution by 4 when you upscale to a 4K TV. if, however, you move up to the big and super big screen TVs because that’s how you like to game, you will see a dramatic difference in quality as the pixels will be more spread out, therefore you will be needing more to get that coveted sharpness.
We’re going to talk about how when you go to the store the 4K TVs look better than the 1080p’s, but how that experience maybe should not warrant you opening up your wallet wider. We’re going to talk about you as a gamer, what you want, and what you think you want. We’re also going to go over some of the numbers and letters in the world of television and what they mean. We’ll give an overview of what interlaced and progressive televisions are, what the differences are between 1080i and 1080p, how the 4K moniker actually comes from cinema screens, aspect ratios, Full HD, 4K and 8K resolution, and a few of some other little things that make gaming TVs super pricey.

If motion handling is important to you, and it should be, a plasma TV is still the best technology on the planet for good motion handling. Also a late model high end plasma will produce a better picture quality than any high end 4k LCD. Plasma just like OLED has self illuminating pixels, each pixel is essentially a tiny light. LCD uses a backlit screen, basically a big flashlight shines through all of the pixels at once. Plasma will have better colors, black level, way better contrast and motion handling than even the best LCDs.

As for not being able to distinguish the pixels from 3 and a half feet maybe for you but for myself I can see the difference from even 7 feet away. I can see that some lines are not as jagged. But it is one of those things that I look for. HDMI 2.0a? We are at HDMI 2.1. Also getting a cheaper television of the same resolution is not always a good idea unless you do not care. I have purchased several different 4K televisions and have noticed pixilation throughout many cheaper models during dark scenes.

*OPINIONS PLEASE* I'm actually looking to buy a decent monitor for work during the day then Xbox Series X in the evenings. Probably around 28 inches. 1080p with a high refresh rate - or 4k with 60hz?

Tv wise there isn’t anymore 1080p tvs to get. Maybe 1% left. Now the biggest factors are lighting and different processing chips that are used. A tv with a very good lighting will make a hell of a difference especially if it has a good chip that can upscale and handle everything well. Basically cheap 4K TVs have shitty lighting and shitty processors. But they’re cheap. The more higher end expensive tvs cost more because of the better lighting and processing. You’ll see a huge difference. And if you don’t then get the cheap one since it doesn’t matter to you.
