MMD To Launch 32in Philips monitor with 8k resolution
Alright, that's a little more than your eyes need at that screen-size but still. MMD (subsidiary of Phlips) will be launching a 32-inch Philips branded monitor that has a massive 8k resolution.
Previously the only other party offering an 8k screen was Dell. While MMD did not share any specs whatsoever, you can assume that the screen resolution will be 7680x4320 pixels, four times that of Ultra HD at 3840x2160. MMD also didn't share any info as to when and where the display is released and available, as well as its price.
She looks pretty thoughy, have a peek.

Would love to see viewing tests on individuals @ 2.5' between 4k and 8k to see if they can spot the diff on 32" screen.

I can understand it not getting too big of a monitor because having a 40'+ screen might get a bit too much for gaming unless you move further away... not sure how much it would impact other things such as media creation.
32inch sounds like a decent compromise overall just be interesting to see how much differences there is overall, jumping from 4K. Then again with the lack of 8K content for awhile we might have to wait to see what happens.

I like the bezels.
As for whether the eyes can resolve that resolution - Anandtech did a nice article on that. The effective resolution for a person with 20/20 eye sight is ~150PPD. This monitor at 2.5' away is roughly ~170ppd. At 4K it's only ~86. So there will be a noticeable improvement in quality, but obviously there are diminishing returns.
Very interesting indeed...

that is such bs, PPI is not the issue is the bad scaling for UI/text we still have in lot programs and games 8k would look twices as good as 4k would IF scaling was done right.
Needing bigger screen is just work around for the bad scaling we still have for UI/text
people need to stop regurgitating this bs the eye cant see it diffrence
Alright, that's a little more than your eyes need at that screen-sizeÂ*but still.
