4K display

High-resolution monitor panel

A 4K display is a screen with approximately 4,000 horizontal pixels—specifically 3840 × 2160 for consumer televisions and monitors, or 4096 × 2160 for digital cinema.

The resolution offers four times the detail of standard HD, making individual pixels nearly invisible at normal viewing distances.

The new 4K display made text razor-sharp.
