But 4k won't show any significant benefit unless the TV is 60 inches or above, and how many lounges in typical homes can comfortably accommodate 60 inch plus screens?

For the average home, 4k is not necessary and just another marketing tool for equipment manufacturers to sell more goods. They're still smarting from the fact that 3D didn't take off as they hoped, with people rushing out to replace their perfectly good TV with a 3D version.
Is this defo the case mate? I was thinking of getting a new 55" 4K TV, not right now, maybe in a few months or so when prices should be lower, but if you're saying that it will be a waste of time because it ain't 60", then I'll have to re-think what would be the best TV with the best PQ.
