I used to have a screen with that refresh and when I was tired and tried to read anything on it, my eyes would, like, vibrate? Like visual stuttering. Not a fun experience. Upgraded to a 60hz and that’s the minimum I’d ever consider for any use now.
So yep, definitely not true.
I also prefer 4k for crisp text for similar reasons (e.g. game text). It might not matter for your average movie, but it matters for a lot of normal use if you don’t want to strain your eyes.
When I moved to 144hz it was a huge improvement again, and then 240hz on top of that is so much more fluid. It’s hard to use 60 sometimes let alone consoles running at 30
This is like the same bullshit research that said there’s no benefit to refresh rates over 30hz
Study used a 27 inch monitor, not a TV, to show lines and grey boxes. Not actual movies or photos

So if 1080 is fine for 27 inch monitor, 4k is fine for the 55 inch tv I have on my desk for a computer monitor.
