I'll give you my advice as someone that still has a 8k Q900R from 2019. If it's under 5k in price for a 85" and it's mini-led and you plan to use it as a PC display it can be worth it. The ppi is incredible at the bigger sizes and Sony ones have great upscaling.
There's some for audio/video-philes. But really nothing worth going 8k yet. Plus the 8k tech is only worth it in OLED right now. While mini LEDs are nice, they really need to move to the micro LED infrastructure to make it worth it for LEDs TVs.
I think it would be great to watch 4 UHD sports streams at the same time on a 120" screen. 8k is for early adopters, but if they don't make the equipment, nobody will produce content for it. The great thing about 8k is it will push the displays larger and the bandwidth up. The other advantage of 8k is for digital art.
The only 8k tvs worth buying are the Sony and LG Z series and they're not cheap. The 8k sets you've listed don't even perform as well as 4k flagships
I could see 8k being somewhat useful in theater displays, but it's pointless in the home. I think 8K might actually have it's place for home, but in VR. Even 4K displays up that close to the eye, higher pixel density could be useful. But the cost of 8K panels will make any affordable 8K VR many years away, if VR isn't dead by then.
If you’re just thinking of it as simply buying the 8k resolution panel then of course it seems like a waste but what you’re really paying for is that processor that’s probably worth $2-2.5k if not more.
Don't, 8K gaming is so far off to the point that when you actually will be gaming comfortably at 8K every single damn feature of that TV will be outdated and the panel while 8K will not be anything near the quality, energy efficiency, or color accuracy of the time.
