With a little help from 4K TVs, you can take advantage of the best resolution for video games and movies. Here’s a look at the best Black Friday deals on 4K TVs.
There are times when shopping for a television where screen technology and design matters far less than the resolution you can feast your eyes on– it’s those cases in which 4K TVs are most appealing.
When you choose a 4K TV, you’re going with a television that has a superior resolution to any HDTV on the market. In order to qualify as a 4K television, a set must have approximately 4,000 horizontal pixels. In most cases, televisions ship with resolutions of 3840 by 2160. Both figures are double what you’d get in a 1080p HDTV with a resolution of 1920 by 1080.
That additional resolution translates to better-looking pictures than what you’d get in a 1080p television. In order to take advantage of 4K programming, you need to access 4K content. Although services are adding new 4K content all the time, it’s not always easy to come by.
If you’re looking for 4K content, consider signing up for services like Netflix or YouTube that support it. You’ll also want to get a PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X, which also come with 4K support on the gaming side.
As you might expect, 4K televisions can be a little costly unless you’re willing to give a little on the screen technology, design or brand.
