Yes, you absolutely can see the difference between 1080p and 4K, especially when it comes to color accuracy and finer details. With a 4K monitor, the colors will look more vivid and truer-to-life, with a significantly higher level of detail. However, that’s only the case if you have a big enough monitor – 27″ or bigger – and are sitting at a computer desk. You’ll be hard-pressed to notice the difference if you’re viewing the screen from a couch ten feet away or looking at the monitor from an angle.
