Not sure if we are going to see this in the future, but I'd love to see video streaming / content production move to 60fps. You're right that beyond 4k doesn't really give you anything but the improvement 24fps to 60 is absolutely massive.

Would also be nice to see video call apps upgrade from the absolute worst qualities to something nicer.

Doubling frame rate won't add bitrate like double, thanks to frame difference compression algorithm. Video call won't use much too. I'd say VR could be the next application that needs more bandwidth.
