You won't, not at 3-4m viewing distance. If you see any difference in resolution, you have exceptional vision

The only tangible difference in such circumstances is the wider colour range that is employed in the newer systems. Even then, it's borderline in most domestic situations...a light controlled (i.e. dark) viewing environment is required to appreciate it. And if you think the mainstream viewing demos are impressive, it's not real...from the factory, most TVs are set far away from colour accurate.
