This TV has 4096x2160 resolution which is known as "quad HD". There have been a handful of other TVs out there with this resolution but none have been mass produced for the market.

The highest resolution I've seen for a computer monitor is the IBM T221 which is a 22" LCD with a WQUXGA 3840x2400 resolution which made everything ridiculously small.

This TV will definitely cost upwards of $80,000 if I had to put a price tag on it.. because the other quad HD displays were in the $30-40k price ranges but weren't as big as this one. Good luck finding any video content that is actually that resolution :)

Maybe 10 years from now it will become the norm resolution for larger TV sets.

i see no point in using a TV that has a higher resolution then 1080p because no TV media supports it. you are merely watching a stretched out and assumed image, not a 1:1 pixel representation.

I always get angry when people call 1080p Full HD. Its like calling  core i7  'full core' as if its not possbile to exceed that amount.

They should've called 1080p True HD or Real HD or summin else

Look at it this way... "1080p Full HD!" = the standards of High Definition in consumers needs. Their needs and standards, will be FULL with this tv that they are buying that is 1080p. And anything above 1080p, is above the normal standards of HD. Now if it said "Max HD" then obviously it would be fuckin bull shit. but the phrase "Full HD" is jus that... a phrase.

by the ATSC standard, any thing 1280x720p and above is HD.

imho, my friends 3 year old (professionally calibrated) 42" pioneer elite @ 1024x768 blows most HDTV's out of the water... it even interpolates frames @ 72Hz...

I hate the whole hype about "1080p" and "HD" and shit. It's a marketing scheme.

You have your resolution, and the way the picture is being refreshed and presented to you, and of course the signal and the way the screen interprets it. And all the other little things. But really put in a nutshell it's just a resolution.

You don't know that. Channels might skip over 1080p (HD channels are 720p) Blu-Rays might be upgraded/changed to run 2160p and heck, maybe the next gen consoles will run games 2160p.
