Industry news, there is a failure in commercial television manufacturing technology....in fact I saw many stores go back to basic DVD Disc.
I mean, it's a printable format on a permanent disc you can print for store sales still...I would only value them at about $5 Canadian a video, plus they have a super cheap player.
Anyway, out of date or what...that's what they're using though someone.
PC Mag Gets It Wrong On HD Television:
LINK: https://www.pcmag.com/news/what-is-8k-should-you-buy-a-new-tv-or-wait
Samsung the leader in current television technoloy has an above 4K television out or "UHD" they are calling I think at 8K for $3000 Canadian...it was not Youtube compatible which offers HD file stream on the Youtube app not included on 8K.
PC mag gets it wrong and says "maybe you've had a 4K tv" then they say "maybe you're still using a 1080p".
No, that is the same television 4K is 1080p.
The smaller HD television is 720p High Definition.
They are saying in HD television the new one is 8K....now they have confused the terms and tried to drop the "p" definition in computer magazines trying to get around the topic.
8K is 2160p.
That failed, in the last two years they tried to leap from 720p to 8K and it failed and now they lost the definitions.
The science project here is screen resolution.
4K or 1080p is still the main brand new television, Smart TV's come in standard 4K today....that is the current model.
Newer screen on 8K have a higher screen resolution and much larger digital files for more clear and colorful picture.
Right now, 4K has all services hooked up on smart tv's....I think they come with Amazon, Youtube and Disney Plus apps and Roku that you can subscribe to.
The store said that was not available on 8K for $3000 last year.
The standard blu-ray disc is 4K, the UHD blu-ray disc player costs about $500....that is the format that crashed or something.
A 4K standard blu-ray player with smart television services costs around $100 Canadian, UHD disc player $500 for a good one.
Not much choice there.
What you're witnessing here is technology companies "leaping into 8K" by skipping the smaller formats and the technology never came out to sell the services yet.
That means, the actual television manufacturing for above 4K has stalled...while the press and companies have tried to push the marketing campaign through to jump to 8K but the manfacturing couldn't keep up.
This means 4K or 1080p is the current television standard format.
On top of that at $2000 Canadian the iPhone 13 is a failure which records in 4K on micro sd card and maxes out at around 256 gigabyte maybe.
The extra setting on the iPhone 13 for UHD or 8K video record only does 10 minutes, after that the phone probably sticks from memory overflow.
Making iPhone 13 a failed 8K UHD product along with the UHD Bluray where the machine costs $500.
None of that stuff is usable yet so it failed, iPhone and UHD are currently maxed out on consumer products with the only workable product for retail end consumers still the standard 4K televisions on Smart TV services which I remind you is still brand new.
They are still currently adding the Disney Plus apps and all that to those televisions.
My recommendation is 720p is still HD and around blu-ray quality anyway....but 4K 1080p is a way better screen resolution, a leap above 720p.
720p is still HD movie video files that are currently the most compatible on most devices while 4K files still have some issues but is easy to work with but might not play on all devices.
The "tech industry" tried to "leap into 8K" with a huge commercial magazine launch and advertising campaign but the manufacturers didn't keep up and all we got a $3000 Samsung for an example of what's coming on UHD with no usable connected services.
