What I know:

I just want to know if I insert a 4K Blu-ray movie into a normal Blu-ray player, will it play? I know it won't be in 4K, but will it at least still work? Specifically trying to use a PS3 (because of the built-in Blu-ray player) to play a 4K Blu-ray movie.
I have a Samsung UN65KS8000FXZA
It's 65 inches, 4K, HDR 10, smart TV (has Amazon Prime, HBO GO, Netflix)
I was about to write a whole story but I'll quickly sum up my question...

-Does it produce better image quality? (I stream 4k HDR on Netflix on my TV, and...

Is buying a 2015 Sony worth it? It's an XBR55X900C and it's on newegg for a decent price. I know 900's are the higher end of Sony's but it's nearly 3 years old now. Have the newer models progressed to the point where'd I'd be disappointed by an older model? 4k tv btw.

I just got a new RX 460 which is used a lot for 4K HTPCs but for some reason I still have terrible stuttering issues when trying to run 4K videos.
