kni Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sony have been plugging their 4K range during the summer, especially at the World Cup. I have a Sony HD television and was wondering about buying a new 4k one. However, there does not seem to much 4K content available and the upscaling of current HD programmes would have to be fantastic to justify the cost. Can anyone comment or advise from personal experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Scruff Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 I considered upgrading to 4K a couple of months ago while looking for a bigger TV for the living room. Did a lot of research into the options. However I decided it's just not worth it yet. There are some good looking deals for cheaper sets, but these don't have anything like the quality required, for which you really need to pay a premium (£2K+). Added to that, the only content available when I was looking was Netflix's House of Cards, it's easy to conclude that it's not worth the premium at the moment.

I Made the same decision for the same reasons. I reckon it'll be a couple of years yet before there's anywhere near enough content to make it a worthwhile purchase.
