This is the most important part of your new 4K TV if you're buying on a budget like me – and it's not the pixels
- When shopping for the best TVs, it's crucial to consider that most entertainment is in 1080p, not 4K.
- Streaming services offering 4K content may not have all shows or movies available in 4K.
- TVs with good image processing can upscale lower resolution content effectively.
- Upscaling becomes more crucial on larger TVs as image flaws are more visible.
- Processors analyze signals, sharpen images, and convert lower resolutions to 4K for better viewing.
- Quality upscaling is essential for streaming video due to data optimization sacrificing details.
- Leading TV manufacturers like Sony, LG, Samsung, and Panasonic excel in image processing for upscaling.
- Researching and testing TV upscaling capabilities is recommended before making a purchase.
- In-store testing of upscaling on different TV models can help assess the quality accurately.
- Watching lower-resolution content is key to evaluating a TV's upscaling performance.
