Something is always coming down the pipe. Fortunately you have need to walk the treadmill, and if you're only just getting a 4K screen now, then you're probably not the kind of insane early-adopter who is.

12k is possible but it's hardly around the corner. Even 4K has both content and hardware issues around it. 8K is going to be the next mass market push but we're not even done with the 4K party.

Also 4K display devices are available at a modest price point now. The bigger issues are content. We're mostly there with mass-market media, but if you want to drive a AAA video game at 4K resolution you're having to make compromises and spend a lot on the hardware to drive it.

They're going to keep making new things. And the new things are going to have bigger numbers. It's okay.
