Currently, modern TVs occupy a special niche in the home appliance market, and the demand for them is growing every year, as manufacturers release new ones, advanced models, differing in the expanded list of interesting and convenient options. Buyers always pay special attention to the diagonal of the TV, but due to the large selection of options to decide on the choice is quite difficult. In addition to this option, you should pay attention to other options, but today we will talk about diagonals - how to choose guaranteed the most appropriate option in the room of the house or apartment.
We take into account the peculiarities of the room
When buying, you should look at the diagonal, resolution, as well as select the appropriate model depending on the distance from the screen to the viewer. In any home appliance store you can find a large selection of models with a diagonal size, starting from 19 to 58 inches. Calculating the size in inches is often not so easy, it is much more convenient to choose the size in terms of centimeters, that is, from 48 to 147 cm, there are larger models. Usually, the price of a particular model of TV for the home depends not only on the popularity of the brand, but also from the screen size.
Most buyers traditionally want to buy the largest plasma, although such an approach is not always considered rational.
First of all, it is necessary to take into account the size of the room, in which this technique will be placed, as a huge LCD TV will not be quite appropriate to look in a small room, in addition, the viewer's eyes will not be able to cover the entire screen at a very short distance. Being in a standard home appliance store is very difficult to assess, which model will be suitable in each case. It is for this reason that the size of the TV, or rather, the size of the diagonal of the device is always paramount. Not to be mistaken with the purchase, you need to visually present the selected TV model in your room and evaluate, how the device will look there, and approximately how much will be able to take up space in the room.
You can also measure the diagonal of several selected devices in the store and, coming home, make marks on the wall, next to which will be a TV. After that, you need to take a few steps back, because the distance between you and the wall should be two to three meters, then look at the location of future TV. This simple method will help to quickly and accurately determine, whether a specific plasma model will be suitable for your room. Because the screen size of each TV has its own characteristics, you should choose a model of dependence on the layout of the room, in which it will be located. So, choosing TV for the kitchen, it is necessary to think carefully in advance about the options for its placement. Though, that there are specific standards, according to which you need to select appliances for the house or apartment, they do not always help to really decide on the choice. It's best to just remember that, that the distance from the viewer to the TV should ideally be greater, than the diagonal of the device in 2-3 times.
If the size is appropriate, the viewer will be able to cover the whole picture with his eyes, and not part of it, he also has a reduced risk of developing myopia.
Optimal viewing distance
Choosing the right TV for your room usually takes more time, but if you know exactly the size chart and take into account the area of the room, you can buy the right option much faster. Properly selected liquid crystal TV will not cause vision impairment and will please its owners for many years. A special table has been developed to simplify the selection, taking advantage of which, you can quickly find your display size. The calculated data are averaged, and a small adjustment within 30-50 cm. At the same time do not forget about the design of the room, as well as think about it in advance, where exactly your TV will stand. The LCD panel can be mounted on the wall. The table comparing the diagonal of the TV and the distance to it from the viewer is as follows:
- 17 inches - 2 meters;
- 25 inches - 3 meters;
- 32 in - 4 meters;
- 37 inches - 5 meters;
- 55 inches - 7 meters;
- 80 inches - 10 meters.
How the diagonal and resolution of the TV screen are related
Finding the optimal display and TV screen size is often not so easy, the buyer must also take into account the resolution of the selected device, and know about it, what may be acceptable formats. That's the whole point, that the quality and convenience in the process of watching the broadcast on the screen depends on the solution.
Of the most common and comfortable resolution formats, it is worth noting Full HD and HD Ready, the first option is characterized by parameters of 1920x1080 pixels, the other is 1366x768. The higher the number of points, the better the image. If the picture on the screen is formed from a large number of such points, you can watch such a TV even from the shortest distance.
For example, if the diagonal of your TV is 32 inches at resolution 625 pixels, it must be viewed from a distance 2,5 meters. But if the permit is 720 pixels with the same screen size, you can watch TV from a distance 1,9 meters.
Not all buyers know about it, what is the permission, and how to calculate the correct distance from the TV screen to the viewer, but to do so is not so difficult, just refer to the table before buying, mentioned above. The cost of a particular TV model will depend on the resolution settings. Quite often in home appliance stores you can see options with a large diagonal and a resolution of 720 pixels, but at the same time they are problematic to watch from a distance less 3-4 meters, because quality leaves much to be desired. Because in many modern apartments it is not always possible to allocate a lot of space for the location of furniture in the right way, it is better to simply refuse to buy such a device. Another unfortunate example is the model with a resolution 1080 pixels and diagonals 17 inches, because the quality of its image will be similar to a TV with a resolution of 480p.
Summary
Diagonals of modern LCD TVs can differ dramatically in their parameters, but when buying you need to consider, that the greater the distance from the viewer to the TV, the more the diagonal of the device display should be. What options to choose, the user decides, but in any case you should always consider the area of the room, in which the TV will be placed. In fact, the answer to that question, how to choose the right diagonal TV, will also depend on the individual preferences of the buyer. Everyone wants to buy the most acceptable option, which will suit the image quality and cost. Given the large selection, presented in many stores, this can be done in a minimum amount of time.
