What do I need to know about 4K?
In a minute we're going to explain precisely how 4K is defined, how it works and why you should care, but to tell you the truth, you only need to know one thing about it: 4K means more pixels.

That's it?
That's it.

Who has it(them?)
Is it worth to buy it?

I have my 3D Samsung Smart TV, the 3 pairs of glasses are resting in the box, no one wants to use them.
Internet on it? Difficult to use it for that.
So what about 4K TV? Money out on the window?

Wouldn't bother at the moment.

Aiden has a 4K UHD TV in his room. To me the pic is no different to a HD 1080P TV.

I find that with the kogan HD agora models - the CPU is underpowered and Internet browsing either stalls, locks up, or the browser crashes. It's really unsuitable for web browsing.

I think in many cases it's worse Guess, due to the upsampling that's required for most media to 4K, and the upsampling quality depends on the software/hardware in the TV.

Ahh, I was referring more to the lower res stuff though...

I haven't seen one in the flesh to play with, but if it plays your regular media ok then maybe the more modern UI has benefits. I'm not planning on replacing the kogan non-4k agora ones though.
