Just when we were getting used to the idea of 4K, 8K is here. With four times more pixels than 4K images (we’re talking 33,177,600 pixel), we are seeing a whole new level of detail than ever before. Better get used to the idea of 8K televisions because they are here to stay.

While 8K content is basically non-existent, we are seeing all the players in TV coming out with their own premium 8K television.

This August, Gadgets will be heading to IFA in Berlin where it’s expected that all major brands will announce their premium 8K televisions.
