I recently bought a Samsung 4K UHD TV. I have a Roku box that can stream 4K content. My Xfinity box is the standard X1.
Has anyone upgraded their xfinity box to the 4K model? Were you able to just swap your old X1 at the store for the new 4K? I thought I read somewhere that Comcast has to install it...you can’t do it yourself.
Is it worth it?
Looking at streaming 4K content from Netflix, I can’t see much picture quality difference over the software-enhanced picture that my TV produces on Its own from regular xFinity HD channels. Don’t get me wrong, the picture on this TV is far superior to the 6 year old 1080P TV it replaced...I’m just trying to figure out if it’s the best it can be.
Just looking for 4K experiences from those who have already traveled this path.
