It's amazing that pixel density has been stagnant since 2014, when the first 5k TV (low ppi) and 5k desktop displays (>200 ppi) were released. It's 2023 now and it still takes a kidney to get 5k >200 ppi, and we only recently got the 6k >200 ppi option for 2 kidneys. Pixel density, however, is stagnant.

I expect the industry realizes 6k is basically the stopping point so they're intentionally approaching it very slowly.

Edit: Updated with ppi specs to draw focus to pixel density of desktop displays.
