What size TV do you need?
Measure from your sofa to the wall, and the space the TV goes in. We'll tell you the size, and show TVs we rate that come in it.
Find your size in 2 questions
How far you sit decides the size. The space you have decides how big you can go.
How we work out the size
A 4K screen can be big. You can sit close to a 4K TV before you see any pixels, so the right size is about how much of your view it fills. At the top of the range it fills your view like a good cinema seat: the screen size in inches is about two-thirds of your seating distance in inches. At the bottom, it still won't feel small.
Between two sizes? Go bigger. A new TV looks huge for a week or two, then normal. A screen that feels too small stays too small.
Check the wall or stand. A 55-inch TV is about 49 inches (1.23 m) wide, a 65-inch about 57 inches (1.45 m) and a 75-inch about 66 inches (1.67 m). Measure the space, and the stand under it, before you buy.
How we reached this verdict
We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
