There are many cable companies that have provided HD (1080P) set tops rather than the needed 4K versions. Check to see if you are really getting 4K to your TV.

I have an Xfinity 4K cable box, and the remote allows me to select from 7 different resolutions. Also, my TV menu is set on 4K. But, when I view a video that Xfinity says is in 4K, the picture is the same for both the 1080P and 2160P 4K settings. The same was true when I was paying for the Netflix 4K programming or rented a movie in 4K, and used a 4K blu-ray player to stream. For regular TV viewing, I use the 1080P setting, because often, the 4K setting does not allow the picture to fill the screen, and it doesn't improve the resolution.
