Anonymous, 17 Jul 2020YouTube don't have 8k....Maybe you haven't explored YouTube properly as yet.
Come back and talk to me when you found some 8k videos and the hardware to run them properly.

        you better use youtube vanced and set your own defaults, long term solution, find a serious and less restrictive platform to upload and watch content

          India was limited to max 480p till now (mobile devices), the rest of the world only defaulted to 480p and could increase the quality manually.

                          Comfortably Running 8k videos.
