Confused by the latest release of Ultra HD 4K TVs? Then let us help you out!

When new technology hits the market it can often be a confusing time for many people as its not always explained that well by manufacturers so we can be put off buying a new product as we are wary of getting something that we don’t fully understand. So if this is something you worry about then let us see if we can help you out in that department!

Ultra HD is really just as simple as the name says and is referred to by a number of different names depending on the manufacturer but whether its 4K, 4K Ultra HD, Ultra HD or any other name you may come across the technology behind it is still the same. We will make it easier and just call it 4K!
To put it in real simple terms 4K resolution is really what it sounds like, four times the quality of normal HD quality which has been amended in order to be able to display this higher resolution onto a normal widescreen format for TVs. So as it offers this although regular High Definition quality is jaw dropping on its own merits, imagine watching content with 4 times the picture resolution!

Samsung have brought out a range of 4K Televisions which are now available to purchase from our website. There is the 55 inch and 65 inch Samsung F9000 versions available but whichever one you decide to go for there are the same amazing brilliant features. Four times the resolution of standard high definition, the  Samsung F9000 sets feature a Samsung Quadmatic Picture Engine, Quad Core processing and Precision Black/Micro Dimming LED technology for deeper blacks.

Wondering what content you would be able to watch on a 4K TV? Then this is being worked on. Sky have recently carried out a 4K trial broadcast by using a English Premier League Match between West Ham and Stoke City. Imagine watching your favourite football team play in ultra high definition. It really is amazing. Sky are also now working on providing live TV in 4K resolution as well so keep your eyes on this space for more updates. Recently when the Wimbledon Tennis championship was being aired the BBC and Sony trialled 4K broadcasts so there will be plenty of content to arrive. It’s not just all about watching 4K content though as even watching your normal TV viewing on a 4K TV would be brilliant, offering you the chance to experience detail in a way you have never seen it before!

It’s not all just TV viewing either as there have been some Mastered in Blu-ray discs released including some great titles: The Amazing Spiderman, Total Recall (2012), Ghostbusters, Battle: Los Angeles, The Karate Kid (2010), Taxi Driver, Angels & Demons, Glory, The Other Guys, Spider-Man (2002).
