8K resolution seems rather pointless for everyone except the (medical) professionals because most people can't even see individual pixels at 32" 4K already at a normal distance (>40cm).I don't know why reviewers do that. 4K is still only a little over 2% adoption rate according to the Steam Hardware Survey. A few sites are already putting up articles about 8K. That has the same number of pixels as 16 1080p monitors.

It's called marketing. Pushing people to buy things they don't actually need or will use at it's full potential at the time of release. The early adopters become the beta testers.I don't know why reviewers do that. 4K is still only a little over 2% adoption rate according to the Steam Hardware Survey. A few sites are already putting up articles about 8K. That has the same number of pixels as 16 1080p monitors.
