Ehhh I mean… outside of up close, high res gaming? 4k doesn’t matter, it’s an excuse to add an extra 1k onto the price tag of a tv or monitor. Refresh rate is way more important.
My TV is 4K and I wouldn't know if I'm watching something in 4K or not unless I was scrutinising it. Especially the attrocious bitrates services stream their 4K at. I do notice 720 is a bit "fuzzy", but that's about it.
I always use the resolution above my screen's on youtube, because the bitrate's so bad, and the difference is very very noticable on monitors
