8k tv with apple 4k tv

I have a Samsung 8k tv. I'm trying to figure out if i should get the new apple 4k tv or just stream from the tv itself. Will it upscale content from both sources the same? (i also have homepods, so the surround sound feature from the apple tv is a huge plus).

Hello VHEB22,


It sounds as though you're wondering if the Apple TV app and Apple TV 4k will provide the same resolution on your Samsung 8k Smart TV. The 8k resolution would be specific to the TV. To inquire as to what resolution films and other content would be displays on that TV would best be provided by the TV manufacturer directly.

I know when we got a 4K TV our Xbox and surround sound system both had to be 4K compatible. So wouldn't that hold true for the Apple TV? No issues if it works at lower resolution, but will it work? We also just bought a Samsung 8K and I wondering if the Apple TV 4K will work. Don't want to purchase it only to find out that we can't use it.
