Pixels per inch. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 1 point 11 months ago Usually when people post a source, the numbers say that at median screen sizes and distances from the screen, 4K isn't perceptibly better than 1440p, and the person writing it up as an article has misunderstood the conclusion as saying 4K isn't better than 1080p rather than that it isn't better than 1440p. TVs tend not to be made with 1440p resolution, so upgrading from 1080p gets you right to 4K, skipping the sweet spot. permalink fedilink source parent
