I have a 43" or 108 cm 4k tv and tried native resolution from my computer.
Despite the large diagonal compared to mainstream computer monitors, still
tiny tiny text. Had to sit at about a metre from the screen, and swivel my
head up down left right. Not ideal. And scaling rather defeats the purpose,
for me (mainly coding, so text). I'll stick to my 27" 2560x1440 on the
desktop.
