About this episode

The episode discusses the decline in popularity of 8K televisions and their minimal difference in picture quality compared to 4K screens.

What’s trending today is something that’s not trending: 8K televisions, which are so unpopular that manufacturers are stopping production. An 8K television is an advance in picture quality over the more common 4K screens, but the difference is so minimal to the human eye that nobody thinks it’s worth the cost. (Also, Victor and Aaron turn into crotchety old men – you know, more so.) Want to know what folks are talking about on social media?
