It will not only use 4K panels in super-sized and even 50-inch TVs.

Third-party agency forecasts: The proportion of 60-inch or larger 8K TVs will increase from 1% in 2017 to 9% in 2020. The data looks good, but like 4K, the panel and TV equipment are just a part of 8K. The real development of the TV will also suffer from a drag on the industry chain. Does it keep up with the content? How about the transmission equipment? So when consumers pay, 8K TV has a long way to go.
