Once the television has brought us endless joy, even if the picture is poor, many wonderful TV shows and television programs have become a generation of classic.But once blurred picture, now no longer attract the attention of consumers, the TV appearance is more fiber Thin, the screen continues to increase, the picture also to a higher quality and clear standards.Under such a premise, such as the penetration rate has been high enough 4K really can fully meet all the needs of consumers do? With this Doubtful, 8K technology is 'speed of light' to us.We can not help but ask: 8K is really coming? In fact, whether consumers or TV makers, are given a positive answer.
4K higher consumer demand can be 'how long?
First of all, for consumers, why the general public began to demand higher-resolution playback devices? 8K home appliances rely mainly on home appliances for the TV products, with the further development of consumer upgrades, consumers of television standards Is on the rise, especially for TVs, whose 'soul' lies in excellent picture quality, and today's television has evolved to larger screens and higher definition, while 4K has ceased to be Quality of the best "standard." At close range, you can still see some very grainy, which makes 4K content does not show fully meet the consumer's picture.
8K TV resolutions up to 7860 * 3840, the number of pixels to reach 33 million levels in resolution, 8K TV can show 4 times the outstanding quality of 4K TV, also has made great strides in the quality level.Whether From the color, viewing angle or frame rate, 8K TVs have the advantage of ordinary TV can not be compared, but also allows the real experience of users feel the arrival of 8K overwhelming.
In fact, in August last year, Sharp, who successfully promoted to '8K', has released the world's first consumer-grade 8K television. This TV is more in line with the mainstream today regardless of its resolution, picture quality, or screen size Aesthetic.Many manufacturers followed Sharp later, have introduced 8K new TV products, and further increase the visibility of 8K products.At the same time, but in order to ensure enough output to keep up with the 8K TV, Sharp also signed a cooperation in March 2017 and construction in Guangzhou 10.5 generation Panel line, the project started this year with this 8K TV, the concept of 8K officially landed, prompting 8K TV into the consumer's family, and become our immediate future.
Resolution has reached the bottleneck breakthrough 8K into a secret
From the point of view of the development trend of the TV industry, from 720P to 1080P to 2K and 4K, it is the inevitable result of the irreversible development of television. Since the further popularization of 4K in 2015, the penetration rate of 4K television has been increasing year by year. Although in the initial stage of universal access Quite a number of consumers are voicing questions about the lack of content, but with the current 4K filing system has been widely used, 4K in the content to be further supplemented.Although the TV industry due to panel sales in 2017 caused by slow sales growth, but in 2017 4K TV achieved good results in the e-commerce promotion node of the year, for example, the 4K television penetration rate exceeded 55% in the "Twelfth Twelve" promotion in late 2017.
At present, the rebound in the panel prices will eventually make the TV prices fall again, while at the same time the price of 4K TV is also gradually lower, for its popularity will have a further boost.But for TV products, there are also technical updates Iteration, the current 4K technology has been fully mature, has basically reached the limit of the technology.On this point, 8K has become the next outbreak of many manufacturers, many manufacturers in CES 2018 have targeted 8K is not a wonderful coincidence, and It is a preview of the television quality revolution.
In such circumstances, there are still some consumers and industry insiders 8K in the current popularity of the road is not optimistic, the reason appears in 8K content is very scarce, even if the purchase of 8K TV can not immediately enjoy the imagination of the super HD viewing experience.
In fact, at the content end there are already some manufacturers to begin action.In December 2017, Sharp released the 8K broadcaster developed in cooperation with the Japanese manufacturer ASTRODESIGN, 8K content can be completed recording and editing.Compared with similar products, The price of this broadcaster is more affordable, while promoting the output of upstream content, but also encourage individuals to create 8K content in 8K is about to usher in the outbreak at the same time, 8K content will be further improved to further eliminate the consumer for 8K Product concerns.
According to the report from IHS, the proportion of 8K ultra-high definition display devices is expected to account for about 1% of the total this year, and in 2020, according to a report from IHS, technological progress, product iteration, and rising consumer demand have all started to flourish. The year will increase to 9% .At the same time, in the current homogenization environment TV manufacturers also hope that products have greater differentiation, and resolution is the standard consumers watch.Under this premise, we have to admit, 4K although it is the mainstream market, but it does not stop the arrival of 8K. Sharp took the lead in starting the 8K prelude and the layout of the entire industry chain 8K, TV products and 8K 'encounter' has long been paved the way in many TV manufacturers Force, the arrival of the 8K era is overwhelming.
