That’s cool for people who work with video professionally, and it’s double cool that China is making its own standards, but for me personally it’s going to be a very long time before this is practical. I don’t have a TV and i’m not planning on getting one, and as for gaming at 8K, that’s just insanity. I don’t even have a 4K monitor because the kind of graphics card required to run anything modern at that kind of resolution is still insanely expensive. Imagine the kind of graphics card you’ll need for 8K… It’ll probably cost more than my car. And streaming videos at that resolution? Forget about it, not with the DSL level internet speeds that we still have where i live. Our internet infrastructure is still in the stone age compared to countries like China.

Yea, the displays developed much faster than all the supporting components.
Yeah, my first thoughts on any new amazing tech from China is “That’s so awesome for them! I will never get to see it in my lifetime.”
With you there. 2k with 60fps is all I get and probably all I need.
Honestly I am more impressed by people having eyes good enough to appreciate 8K
I found this article on a study saying that on average people can only barely tell the difference.
