Does 4K really make a difference?

The difference is that the higher pixel count of a 4k screen allows for a more natural representation of the picture, with added detail in the image.

At what screen size is 4K worth it?

Most experts agree that the minimum screen size to be able to enjoy 4K without having to sit too close is 42 inches.
