<\/a>8K Sharp LV-85001 Television<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n While labelled a television and, technically, a TV tuner is present, there are no broadcasts currently capable of transmitting content anywhere near 8K \u2013 the tuner is likely there for the sake of futureproofing a rather expensive piece of kit, and for the moment only useful for professionals looking to test 8K transmissions.<\/p>\n In fact, 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray movies still aren\u2019t even a thing just yet. Sure, they\u2019re right around the corner, but 8K is far from a realistic option.<\/p>\n It\u2019s for that reason that many a professional are predicting that practical 8K displays will arrive in 2018<\/a>, and that\u2019s a really conservative estimate \u2013 others have reported 2020.<\/p>\n There\u2019s another reason this really isn\u2019t a practical piece of kit, it\u2019s going to cost 16, 000, 000 yen, roughly $133, 034 or R1.79 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Of course, if you can afford Sharp\u2019s LV-85001 there are one or two things we can recommend to you to test out your shiny, new TV.<\/p>\n Project CARS<\/em> can be bumped up to 12K resolution, so 8K should be right in the ballpark for the world\u2019s sexiest car simulator. You\u2019re going to need a stupidly expensive rig<\/a> to do so, but then again, you did just buy a television for R1.79 million.<\/p>\n Alternatively, a movie buy the name of Ghost Towns<\/a><\/em> over on YouTube is actually an 8K short film.<\/p>\n We\u2019re assuming you have a 100Mbps fibre connection at the very least, but that\u2019s hardly going to dissuade you if you have more money than sense.<\/p>\n Turns out, Philips also has a 34 inch curved monitor<\/a><\/p>\n Hisense prices its Ultra HD LED TVs for South Africa<\/a><\/p>\n Samsung developing 11K display for mobile devices<\/a><\/p>\n
