Yes, but that's way out of budget for most consumers.","comments":[{"id":48984585,"user":"prima-facie","time":1784579927,"time_ago":"20 hours ago","type":"comment","content":"

Actually not really, Lunar Lake chips with Xe2 graphics have VVC decoding in hardware which can do 8K.

They were likely saying that 8K displays are way out of budget for most consumers.","comments":[{"id":48993675,"user":"aboardRat4","time":1784648026,"time_ago":"an hour ago","type":"comment","content":"

Where I live, we have 50 inch 8k TVs for 180 USD.","comments":[{"id":48994363,"user":"jonathanlydall","time":1784650624,"time_ago":"23 minutes ago","type":"comment","content":"

Do many people use Firefox on 50" 8K TVs as opposed to regular monitors? I wouldn't want such a large display on a computer unless the computer is being used as media server. And my experience when I got new monitors for work about 18 months ago, was that decent ones at higher than 1440p were more expensive than I felt was worth it.

Also, I expect one or more of the following from a 50" 8K TV at that price:

- Bundled with ad/spyware.

- Poor image and/or sound quality.

- Doesn’t last long, or image quality very noticeably degrades after a relatively short amount of use.

I also wonder if perhaps it’s still like back when HD was still new, where TVs would advertise “Full HD”, but were actually only referring to being able to accept a 1080p input signal which they would then downscale to their <720p LCD panels.","comments":[],"comments_count":0,"level":3,"url":"item?id=48994363"}],"comments_count":1,"level":2,"url":"item?id=48993675"}],"comments_count":2,"level":1,"url":"item?id=48984782"}],"comments_count":3,"level":0,"url":"item?id=48984585"}],"comments_count":4,"url":"item?id=48983751"}
