the 720p to 1080p is a complete lie, not the 4k to 8k, because that is supported by math
or maybe the couch distance was different back them, and the TVs were smaller there’s that
in a 50’ display of course, i’m just not sure it that apply to those smaller tube TVs lol
Oh I was agreeing with yer comment hahaha.
Maybe it differs for everyone, but I can absolutely tell 720p from 1080p on anything from a 17” flatscreen monitor to a giant TV from almost any reasonable distance!
You’re right about CRTs though—due to how the picture is projected, it’s waaaay more difficult to tell resolutions if you’re watching/playing something. That’s why an N64 looks great on any size CRT, but looks like complete ass on any flatscreen (other than flat CRTs of course, lawl)
