OldSmoke wrote on 11/12/2014, 6:32 PM I agree. 70" and up should be 4K, below HD does a very good job. john_dennis wrote on 11/12/2014, 6:40 PM "4K TVs smaller than about 70 inches make no sense." I tend to agree with that statement except in limited situations. 1) Displaying stills from the local USB port. (My stills are 4000x3000 or 4000x2248.) I've cropped them to 3840x2160 and they look very good. 2) Displaying a laptop screen to the 4K panel for all the family to see. Disclaimers: I own a 49" Sony XBR-49X850B. We sit about 9-1/5 feet from the screen. A 70" screen at any resolution would not be good for us. Very little that I do makes any sense, economically, technically or philosophically.
