4K forecasts upgraded

Forecasts on European 4K sales have been upgraded by Paul Gray, principal analyst at IHS Technology.

He broke the news to delegates from the Hollywood, IT Society and Media & Entertainment Services Alliance, saying that while UHD sales would be buoyant, there was a chance that consumers could be confused by the emergence of 8K displays in the marketplace.

Europe would see numbers of UHD units rise from 6.4 million last year to 21.8 million during 2019. 2016 is predicted to see sales reach around 12 million units.

In contrast, IHS predicts around 143,000 8K displays to be sold in 2019.
