720p vs. 1080p: Can You Tell The Difference?

An interesting graph is displayed which supports the use of 720p video for TV and projectors.

If true, then, using a 100" screen with a projector, people who are 20ft or more away from the screen cannot tell the difference.

There is a BIG difference to me when viewing on my 55", 10' or 20' away. On my 65" UHD, any non-1080 picture is ugly as hell.



Directv has always been sending 1080i, which I think is the best mainstream service on the market before going to 4k (or playing a blu-ray). Even then, I notice clarity issues on both of my tv's. Once you stream a solid 4k, you'll see the difference whether 5' or 20' away.



The funny thing is, you never really notice or complain about clarity until you're introduced to the next level.

I'm gonna go ahead and call BS on their chart. 480p is adequate at 20' on a 55" screen? Absolute BS.
