I have a 50" 4k QLED TV, a 48" LG C1 OLED, and an 85" Sony X95K miniLED. On my smaller screens, it's very difficult (if at all) to notice the difference between 1080p blu ray and 4k. My 85" makes it much easier to notice the fine details, especially in faces and backgrounds. The one selling feature for UHD discs is the atmos / 7.1 audio tracks. Blu ray is typically great and you can't go wrong especially at that price. UHD discs should be purchased for favorites and if you have an atmos system at home. Even then, you have to be careful buying the UHD discs, some are not worth the upgrade due to poor transfers. I also only really suggest UHD discs if they come with good blu ray versions as well in order to justify the upgrade cost. For the vast majority of people, blu ray is excellent. Only enthusiasts should consider UHD due to the extra homework that is required. On a side note, for those of us who like to rip a digital version, UHD is considerably larger than blu ray and you need A LOT of HDD space to accommodate UHD.

I feel like certain movies like Blade Runner, Alien, Saving Private Ryan it feels like you're watching a real 35mm print with HDR or Dolby vision which I love and Dolby atmos is just impressive as well

A 100 inch+ with a 1080p projector with regular blurays still look amazing.

Blu-ray is definitely my go to format. I own almost a thousand films and less then 50 are 4K… to me 4K is overkill most of the times, revealing too much. There’s a few rare exceptions where 4K absolutely blew my mind like the latest release of ‘Apocalypse Now: Final Cut’ but generally speaking I’m going with the Blu-ray release.

From DVD to Blu-ray? YES!!! 1000% huge difference. From BD to UHD-BD (4K)? No, save for only natively captured movies in digital 4K from the past decade. Anything captured from 35mm film does not benefit any improvement beyond BD, even and especially with all the digital scrubbing, artificial enhancing and upscaling for UHD.

DVD Was Good For SD CRT Tvs(Specialy in big Flat screen CRTs 27-32inch with 576×768p which is exactly the resolution DVDs. DVD looks good in CRT Tvs not in HD LCDs and plasma

The resolution is better with 4k vs regular blu ray, but the biggest reason to own the UHD 4k disc, is the HDR. The color improvement and lighting improvements, with the specular highlights etc, are what sets it apart, along with the enhanced resolution that you get.

Very informative video, thank you! I've been collecting 4ks mainly for the upgraded resolution and the HDR colors, those look really good in my TV. But there are a couple of movies here and there where the difference between 4k and Blu-ray isn't that big. The best thing you can do is look for reviews for every movie you wanna buy.

Good suggestions! Not all 4K's are equal though. I have the blu Ray of the movie "Oblivion" with Tom Cruise which was originally produced in DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 surround. Because I LOVE this movie, I recently purchased the Ultra 4K Atmos version. The 4K version is awful. The 4K video looks like a DVD and the audio sounds muffled. I typically don't experience this problem with other 4K upgraded movies. I read that movies produced before 2011-2013 are usually hard to re-format into 4K, but this was released well after those dates, so no excuses for this bad quality.. I totally agree with you that you should have the right TV and sound equipment to enjoy 4K and bluray, otherwise you won't get that immersive experience.

You don't need a 100 inch tv to get the best out of 4K!!!

It depends on how far you are from the screen. If you are sitting close to the screen, the 50-70 inch screen is perfect. In that case you just need a 1080p tv or projector. Why bother getting 4k blu ray except for the hdr and super quality sound? Again, it depends on how you set up your home theatre. For 4k blu ray discs, you need a large 4k tv or projector to appreciate the movie image quality vs 1080p display.

What an annoying concept! I’ll stick to regular Blu-ray!
