If I bring a 4k TV to use as monitor how would I connect it ?
Actually I am using Miracast technology to mirror my laptop screen. But AFAIK Miracast will mirror the exact resolution of my laptop screen.
Is there a way I connect wirelessly my laptop to TV and have 4K ?
if I have to use cable will the VGA card still be enough? And what kind of cable will I have to use ? HDMI VGA or other?
HDMI 1.4 will support 4k at 30Hz refresh. HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort will get you 60Hz.

And, obviously, you need the graphics chip and graphics memory of the computer you use to be able to do 4k resolution.
I think almost everything recent supports 4k. Memory quantity isn't so important outside of gaming. The biggest problem may be TV/monitor support of >30Hz refresh rates.

You mean using HDMI cable I can have 4k output from my laptop on the 4k TV screen
No, what popo says is, there's a difference in various HDMI standards and only 2.0 support 60Hz refresh rate. Also the graphics of your laptop has to deliver 4K.
You can forget color calibration with TV monitors for several reasons. 30" or more diagonal will give you a huge area and somewhere in this area there will be reflections - or you decide to work in a darkroom without windows.
Either you sit close to the screen or far away: In one case you will have color deformation caused by huge angle of view, in other case you will not recognize the small typo. Windows is not the best system to use with 4K displays. You also will have a larger amount of head movements and soemtimes you willl lose eye-contact with your mouse arrow.
I suspect your idea is possible but ergonomics will suffer. And if your graphics card is up to date.
Got your point
I tried it on the TV I have (full HD, 55 inch), that was fine however I couldn't live with the color difference between my calibrated laptop screen and the difference in color I saw on the TV screen.
I don't need 60 HZ refresh rate.
I have the spyder 2 calibration device, it s doing a great job on my laptopscreen, however datacolor say it won't work on LED.
for me a calorimeter is calorimeter the difference should only reside in the software for the calibration.
Do you know any screen calibration software that will work with spyder 2 on windows 10 \?
