Guy1: When i can chose 1080i or 1080p, which is better?
Friend of guy1: 1080p is definitely the best, you would make a big mistake if you bought 1080i because that would be worse than 720p. Don't get the marketing trick you to think same resolution means same quality.

Person 1: Uh... not really. A 4K TV would've been better. This is 2018, dude.
