Quick answer

For comfortable viewing, sit about 1.5–2.5 times the screen size away from a 4K TV, and 2.5–3.5 times from a Full HD TV. If your sofa is 8 ft (96 inches) from the wall, a 43–65 inch 4K TV works, with 55 inches a popular middle choice. A 43 inch 4K TV suits a bedroom 5–6 ft away.

How to use this calculator

  1. Measure from your eyes on the sofa to the wall where the TV will go.
  2. Choose 4K or Full HD.
  3. Pick a size in the recommended range that fits your wall and budget.
