The long distance, even if the maximum HD can only reach the resolution of 1080P, so in a very long period of time or to SD as the dominant, in the living room 3-4 meters distance, Full HD and 55-inch combination can still be competent As for Internet broadcasting, there are two barriers that need to be breached. First, the 4K chip source problem is not enough to provide 4K resources, and secondly, bandwidth issues, in order to smoothly play 4K ultra-high-definition online video, At least 100 million fiber optical homes, in addition to the operator's overall transformation, the user's network costs are not cheap. From this point of view, 2K surface screen with 55-inch configuration, 4000R best curvature screen to give consumers iMax viewing experience, 4999 yuan Konka X80A undoubtedly in practicality advantage is still quite large.
