8K was always a lie. It's impossible to tell the difference from 4K unless you're too close, 4K already has more pixels than your eyes do.

4k is about 8 million pixels. The human eye has a resolution of about 576 megapixels.

I know what you mean with your comment, but the way you expressed it is factually incorrect
