About Viewing Distance Calculator
Find the best TV size for your room and the right seating distance for 1080p, 4K and 8K screens.
Sit too close and you see pixels and move your head to follow the action. Sit too far and you lose the detail you paid for. A viewing distance calculator finds the sweet spot for your TV size and resolution, or tells you which TV size suits the distance from your sofa.
Viewing Distance Rules Of Thumb
- 1080p: about 1.5 to 2.5 times the screen diagonal.
- 4K: about 1 to 1.5 times the diagonal for a cinema feel.
- Cinema angle: a screen that fills 30 to 40 degrees of your view feels immersive.
For example, a 65 inch 4K TV works well from about 5.5 to 8 feet, while a 55 inch suits about 4.5 to 7 feet.
Choosing A TV Size For Your Room
Measure from your eyes to the wall where the TV will go. Divide that distance in inches by about 1.5 for a 4K TV to get a comfortable diagonal. Most people who upgrade say they wish they had gone one size bigger, so if you are between two sizes, the larger one is usually the better pick.
Which App The Install Button Opens
The button opens Screen Size Simulator on Google Play, a TV size app that tells you the best viewing distance for different screen sizes and shows the recommended size for a given distance. Check the real dimensions with our Screen Size Calculator.
