    8K is theoretically good as “spare resolution,” for instance running variable resolution in games and scaling everything to it, displaying photos with less scaling for better sharpness, clearer text rendering, less flickering, stuff like that.

    It’s not worth paying for. Mostly. But maybe some day it will be cheap enough to just “include” with little extra cost, kinda like how 4K TVs or 1440p monitors are cheap now.
