Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying 4K is obsolete, but the sensors, boards, and other electronics will be old technology in a short amount of time.
4K is just a number, so is 5K. I'd imagine the real upgrade is the light sensitivity of the sensor, the way the camera handles motion and hilights, and the processing.
