Default How do Blu-rays played on a regular player look on 4K?

Are they still upscaled?

For example, on a 4KTV, playing a blu-ray on a PS3. Does it look better, same, or worse than a regular 1080p TV? In other words, does the 4k bluray player do the upscaling, or the TV?

I'm thinking of getting this one, thoughts?

I think so. But....4K UHD disc downscales to 1080p look better picture and HDR converter to SDR.

Why you buy 4K UHDTV?

The TV upscales, and yes IMO a bluray played on a 4k TV does look slightly better than on a standard 1080p set
