VR is definitely one example where 16K might be useful, but VR is a relatively niche.

I can argue that VR is niche only because high res lightweight displays aren't available at scale yet.

[–] Alphane_Moon@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

That's a big ask though, such displays are extremely expensive and there is not enough scale for VR.
