Witness a revolution in resolution

Once you've seen the world in 4K Ultra High Definition1, there's no looking back. With a Sony 4K Ultra HD TV1, breathtaking natural details are depicted in richer, fuller color with even more stunning contrast. At four times the resolution of Full HD 1080p, the difference of 4K TV resolution is undeniable – and when accompanied by a powerful 65 watts of front-facing sound, it's quite simply the most immersive, highest resolution television experience possible.

LG to Turn Mobile Gaming to 4K Games

As with most things, there are a few catches here. You won’t just be able to go and get any old game and turn it into a 4K masterpiece. LG’s ultra-high definition TV will turn 1080p content into 4K, and while the company was pretty sketchy on details, it’s worth assuming that you’ll need a 1080p mobile game to begin with.

TCL’s ‘China Star’ 110-inch 4K Google TV

3D TV is dead, replaced by 4K, says BBC controller

Writing in TV trade publication Broadcast, Harrison says "everyone has finally accepted that 3D TV is dead," with the glasses being reserved for gaming and the cinema. So what'll take its place? 4K, aka Ultra HD, Harrison reckons.

Sony SimulView gets even more bananas in 4K, we go eyes-on

We've seen Sony SimulView in action before -- the system was first unveiled on Sony's tiny 24-inch PlayStation 3D Display back at E3 2011 -- but never quite like this. An 84-inch 4K LED Sony television at CES 2013 upscaled Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo 5 to 4K resolution, but instead of employing said resolution for graphics, it was used to deliver two full HD images to two separate players. Those two separate HD feeds are then pumped into the same screen, which can be viewed fully independently by two separate people wearing polarized glasses, all at the same time.
