A good 4K OLED TV with HDMI 2.1 is still well over $1000. Thats why for the next 5 years, manufactures should just focus on making those TVs less expensive and push volume, instead of trying to sell 85" 8K TVs no one needs or can afford, except for a small group of rich people.
8K is a pipe dream. And it would crush game development. Costs would skyrocket.
Thats why one of the lead artists from Sony Santa Monica said don't expect AAA games on PS5 to look like the UE5 demo. That level of detail doesn't scale to a big AAA game on a feasible time frame and still make sense financially.
If you want 8K games in 2023, then get ready for $100 games on 2 discs, made by 500 developers, that are only 5 hours long and need to sell 10 million copies just to break even.
Fuck 8K. Console gaming is about great games and reasonable prices. Resolution is overrated.
For PS5 Sony should just focus on selling 100 million units by the end of 2025, and then launch PS6 in fall 2026. No need for a 8K PS5 Pro, just make great games and drive down costs for 6 years, then launch a new generation and do it again.
