I bought it primarily not for 4K, but with a reserve for the future and VR, and if you are interested in 4K, it is better to wait for the next generation or build a PC for this, which will be very expensive and unlikely to be worth it. So far, 4K gaming is barely developing. Here it will be rather just a nice addition. But, if you have a 4K/HDR TV and/or PS VR, this is the must-have console for you. And even on a 1080p TV, you'll at least get higher frame rates and better graphics in the future.
