Gadget Mill: CES – the show which unleashes the latest technology and gadgets in an all you can eat buffet consumer show is still running wild as I write this blog post. This year we have seen a lot of cool new gadgets which make you ‘wow’ and then on the other hand we have the latest craze known as the 4K TV.
Here are 5 reasons to why 4K TV will fail miserably.
The Shortcut lists all the best deals from Walmart for Cyber Monday
See our favorite of the 500-plus deals in Walmart’s pre-Black Friday sale
The $398 LG TV is infinitely better than the $98 .onn TV, but I bet people will choose the latter
Daily Video Game writes: "The online Amazon is running a new sale on several Sony OLED and Premium TVs with discounts of up to 30% off right now! If you are looking for a new TV, ,make sure to take advantage of these deals now!"
I would have mentioned 8K TVs too, but my reasons would have applied to those TV sets much more!
NHK said they are going to go from HD to 8k and skip 4k support, but we won’t see those screens to buy till 2020. They also say 8k fools your eyes into thinking you are seeing a 3d image.

I still think 4k will do ok as its got a good 10years on the market before we see anything better, I'm sure over that time it will gain support and get some good peripherals.
Don't think many ppl have $10k to through about.
Making the TV is the EASIEST part of this whole equation. Every year CES has to come up with some kind of "Thing" to push each year to help drive interest. The one year it was 3D and we are all seeing how that played out. 4K will come no where to hitting mass market until content providers can provide the service. HD had not hit critical mass until TV stations started televising in HD. They just got done updating their infrastructure to accomplish that and now these companies think that this all going to happen again any time soon? They want you to blow a wad of cash on a 4K TV to do what? Oh yeah...to invest in a whole new library of improved 4K bluray discs to play on a new 1000 dollar bluray player. I would have rather had them concentrate on getting OLED technology affordable and available.
Someones scared if 4K does become successful thats what I think. ;)
