4K TV

High-resolution display panel

A 4K TV is a television with a screen resolution of approximately 4,000 horizontal pixels—specifically 3840 × 2160, four times the detail of standard high definition.

The term comes from the rough pixel count across the screen's width. 4K has become the standard for new televisions, with content available through streaming services and gaming consoles: We finally upgraded to a 4K TV.
