8K Experiences in the Market Now
There are not many 8K monitors in the market now, but other technologies are offered at the best and most premium resolution innovation in the world. Previous studies have been behind the addition of 8K's premium resolution to improve electron microscopy, which could be used in various fields like medicine and science, among other applications.
Of course, 8K resolution would not be possible without the cameras that can capture these incredible details, depth, and other factors that make up the massive picture. The RED 8K Pro Camera is among the earliest to feature this capability for capturing massive resolution, and it does so with a sensor that can capture 120 FPS RAW video.
Most 8K resolution offers now are centered on smart televisions, with TV manufacturing leaders like Samsung, LG, and others already offering them. However, Dell was the first in terms of monitors, but ASUS takes it up a notch with its offer of 8K resolution on mini-LED. However, do not expect it to be cheap, as it will come in the premium professional monitor range.
