It depends on the content too. Most stage shootings such as drama shows are fine in HD. I don't need to see the actor's pores. But some nature documentary or a well done effects movie can be gorgeous in 4k with the right TV. But for the 90% of stuff where I'm content toowatch on my phone, definitely didn't need 4k.
