As long as he has it set to 1080 in the set top box he isn't going to get any better. TV doesn't broadcast in resolutions higher than 1080i for now on any provider. I would have thought that most 4K TV's would do a decent job of upscaling content to it's resolution although it will never be a substitute for proper 4K content.

SD looks awful on normal 1080p 50" TV's IMO so it's no wonder that looks bad on his super duper ultra hd tv.

Also bear in mind that i think the smallest 4K TV is 55" with most of them being 65".
