The Samsung Neo QLED 8K QN800B TV — the future or just another fad like 3D?

The QN800B streaks ahead of the OLED in terms of overall brightness which is especially important if you watch TV during the day in a bright room.

I remember the excitement when companies started releasing HD TV and then full HD. Over the last decade, 4K has become the norm but it’s still not fully adopted and in streaming services like Netflix you have to pay extra for the higher resolution content. Over the last few years, the amount of 4K media has grown substantially across the board from streaming movies and TV shows to YouTube. So, is it time for the next bump in resolution to 8K? I’ve been checking out one of Samsung’s 8K TVs for the last few weeks to see if I can answer that question.
