I just upgraded because we got a new condo and I've never had an awesome TV, and I'd say it's totally worth it if you can put it to use, but with a decent 4K TV it's a lot more than just the resolution. You'll probably get HDR and 120Hz and Dolby Atmos and anti-jitter settings and upscaling and all sorts of crap and that really does seem to do a lot, compared to a midrange 1080p TV from >10 years ago, even if the source is 1080p. I even noticed a huge difference playing Baldur's Gate 1 on Switch. For reference I went from some midrange thing to an LG C4 65" (seems to be the best 'balling on a budget' TV out there based on reviews, I mean there are better TVs out there but this thing delivers 95% of it for half the price)
