So, instead of 1920x1080 pixels, you will get 3840x2160 pixels, 4 times as many. This is supposed to produce a better picture than 1080p, but don't count on it. Networks don't want to spend the extra money to produce native 4K content.

So, make sure your TV is set to the 4K resolution to see if you can tell the difference.
I have a TV that upscales DVD's and other sources that are not full 4K. It fools my eyes perfectly. If I like the results, why would I care how they get there?
