Sony just launched their newest 4K TV commercial, showing off the incredible detail packed in their 4K Ultra HDTV’s. The commercial features 8 million flower petals being blasted from a volcano in Costa Rica. The brilliant colors of red, yellow, purple, and pink float across the village in slow motion. The 8 million petals represent the 8 million pixels featured in the Ultra HDTV — four times that of Full HD (1080p).
