ones like this

https://www.rgb.com/display-size-resolution-and-ideal-viewing-distance

i'm considering finally upgrading to a 4k display, but i sit 8' away from my screen and my current size of 55" seems just right (my next display would be same size or, if anything, a bit smaller). so based on that graph i won't notice a 4k upgrade at all.

Yeah pretty accurate imo.
I sit 2.5 to 3 feet away from 55 inch for full benefit

It only hurts me when i have to read stuff against a white web page (i hook my pc to tv). It just too bright imo.
For games and movies it is fine for me tho

You get used to it. Probably for the worse, but yeah

Personal experience, its about right. I have a 65 inch 4K in a small living room. I'm usually sitting between 6 and 8 feet away. Parents have a 55 inch 4K about the same distance away. You can definitely see the 4K details more with my setup.

This is why I wish everyone would agree 8K is a waste to pursue. Especially for gaming. You have to generate twice the pixels for negligible effect. Even 4K can be a waste if you have a screen too small for your viewing distance.
