Hi. IMO that’s nothing more than a conspiracy theory. For the last year at least I’ve lived in a 4K HDR10 environment and frankly it’s never been better. Yet I cant wait to see what the next innovation will bring us!

That's cool. I understand.
It isn't conspiracy as much as marketing. Like 4g wireless when it really isn't. Like 4K when it is really 2K. Like having to actually *degrade* the signal with motion blur. More pixels / resolution than your eyes have. And frame rates that you can only detect if amped up on something - maybe.
The big issue now is having no real 4K source anyway - other than stuff you won't really watch. For now, you get to watch everything upconverted from 1080i, or lower.
No no - we need to push 4K so that when 5G comes around, users can get billed for 4K on their 5" phone screens! Yes!
I'm messing with you right? If you can see it, good on ya' mate! :)

But IMO it's a lie, at the very least it's misleading...
See, he put a black pixel dot way out of our area of focus then tried to claimed we didn't see it because we can't... that's such manipulation of the truth. Put the dot on his face and we might have noticed, but more likely our brain would have discarded that information as a blemish. So I call "Fake News"
I can see 4K images clearly even without corrective vision, 4K to 1080P is night and day difference. With glasses it's a whole new experience.
:P

Um, where I work (which is not important), we have about 50 of the 4K sets running 4K source signals as a testing bed.
Aside from the algo purposely putting in motion-blur to the signal, many are put off by everything looking like a soap-opera, and also the motion sickness kind of thing despite the algo. Depends on how active the source is. Basically too much of a good thing.
Re the fake news - I wouldn't go that far. The black dot that gets missed is explained at how a normal viewing experience *should* be 10 feet away, and also explains how *maybe* you would see it if it is already in your focus of vision, and more or less expecting it. Outside that cone (which he provides tests for), it is easily missed.
The other point made is about the quantum leap in data / bandwidth. At 4k, the *only* way to see it is by viewing live - there is no consumer-level storage media large enough inside a box to make it practical for local storage and playback. Ah, forced streaming.
I see it as going too far with a good thing, but the industry will try to shoe-horn it into adoption, for things that most won't detect. But that's my opinion.
I'll stop since this isn't the tv forum. :)

Hola My only regret is a year ago I didn’t buy a Sony 65” gaming monitor with 4K HDR10 instead of the 55” of same spec’s has been sharpest video monitor I ever bought.
Better than the 75” LG 4K monitor which was the worst I ever bought, so put it in the guest room..
1080p is minimum for phones and notebooks. But 4K HDR10 is the standard for gaming.
The YouTube video as entertaining as it was was full of old outdated useless information. Heck even Apple TV’s screensaver is in 4K HDR Even Netflix has dedicated 4K streaming content channel. Admittedly it’s at the minimum specs to to call it 4K. Even Microsoft is getting into the 4K streaming game. Speaking of, there’s nothing like gaming in 4K HDR10 Which is becoming the minimum requirement these days.
Look at it this way, most information regarding 4K published 6 months ago is most likely depreciated at this point, yet here we are considering the validity of a video published 2 years ago!!
Every time I go to my optician I find that technology has advanced so much I can’t even buy a replacement pair of glasses of equal old tech.
Yes my tired 63 year retired old eyes need help, but I still see most detail available in 4K
