[JAMES4578]

HDMI 2.2  was officially  announced by the HD  Forum Inc , can be deliver up to 96Gbps bandwidth and 16K resolution.   It will also support 4k at 480Hz.

Although the Technology will  be available  later in 2025 it may take manufacturers a bit of time to implement it,the problem is that 8k has not really taken off though Samsung does promote their 8k models quite heavily.  2.2 though  will be more  a marketing ploy at the moment.

Your right about 8k not being promoted and being very little uptake in by broadcasters but the possibility look great from earc advancements to length of cable. But as you say a ploy. Still more fake 2.1 cables around than real ones

Now we have entered a period when technology is far ahead of reality and is developed for the sake of image. For example, you can create a car that can drive at 300 kilometres per hour, but nobody needs it. It is the same with technology: HDMI 2.2 or Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7, 16K resolution - it is interesting, but nobody needs it because the possibilities it offers are beyond reasonable needs.

Would not quite agree,may not be able to fully benefit from some of the technology at the present time but does not mean to say aspects cannot be utilised in the future. Technogical development is all about expanding the Boundaries and at times thinking way ahead.
