Tv size distance chart. With 4k tvs this is lowered to 1 1 5 times the screen diagonal. To get this suitable distance multiply the screen size by 1 2. It is usually measured in inches although there are brands in some countries that use values in centimeters. So for a 75 inch tv that means sitting 90 inches or 2 3 meters away.

That s 50 75 away from a 50 tv which is about 1 3 1 9m away. Here is a rough guideline from crutchfield on tv sizes and sitting distances for high definition hd tvs. So for a 50 tv that s at least 75 125 inches away about 1 9 3 2m. If you use your tv from time to time less than 45 min day.

With 40 to 45 hdtv it is good to sit at a distance of 6 to 8 feet 1 8 to 2 4 meters and for 50 to 60 screen size preferred viewing distance is 6 5 to 11 feet 2 to 3 5 meters. 70 inch tv will provide good picture details at 12 to 14 feet 3 7 to 4 meters distance and above all you have quite flexible distance range as for example 90 tv can be perfectly viewed from a distance ranging between 11 to 17 feet 3 5 to 5 meters. This is the distance between the opposite corner points of the screen. For example for a 55 tv the best distance is 7 feet.

If you use your tv frequently more than 2 5 hours day and if you want a more intense tv experience look for the minimum numbers in the tv size chart below seat closer to tv. After all as a friend once told me at the dawn. Typically for an 1080 hdtv the viewing distance should be 1 5 to 2 5 times of the screen size while for the 4k ultra hd it s only 1 to 1 5 ratio. There are a number of ratios that get roughly close.

In our tv size chart below you will find a distance range minimum to maximum distance between tv and seat. The best and most immersive viewing experience is when 40 degrees of your field of view is taken up by the screen. For your information see the below table for a general tv screen size optimal viewing distances. Different resolution has different viewing distance as well.

This field of view distance can be calculated by just knowing the size of your tv. Television sizes are generally labeled according to the screen diameter which is the length of the diagonal of the screen. If your seating distance is 96 for example a 58 tv will have a viewing angle of 30 and an 80 tv will have a 40 viewing angle. Remember that a large tv will occupy more space.

Multiplying the seating distance by 6 will yield a tv size that will be close to a 30 viewing angle while multiplying the seating distance by 84 will get you a tv size close to the 40 viewing angle. The optimal viewing distance is about 1 6 times the diagonal length of the television.
