In the market there is a diversity of models and prices of televisions, but there are several factors to consider when buying a new TV. One of these points is to choose the best resolution for the device, I feel Ultra HD or 4K is the current standard in the large screen market, once Full HD is falling behind.
The type of 4K displays make up a picture of 3,840 by 2,160 pixels. Resolution indicates how densely these individual pixels are put together to form the image you see. The higher the number, the greater the definition. The HD have a resolution of 1280×720 pixelswhile Full HD 1920X1080.
But apart from the resolution and sharpness of the TV, it must be taken into account that the size of the device has to be in accordance with the place where it will be located. Namely, It is not only the size of the equipment that matters, but also the distance at which the spectator is located. For example, if you have a 65-inch 4K, it is recommended that there be between 2 and 3 meters of distance from the viewers. If it is 46 to 55 inches, the ideal is between 1.5 and 2 meters.

Having the biggest screen possible isn’t always ideal. The specialized portal ringings details that the human visual system has a total horizontal field of vision of about 200 degrees, although a part of that is peripheral vision.
In this way, it is explained that while it makes sense to get as big a TV as possible for movies, not all content is made to fill the entire field of view. This becomes very apparent when watching sports up close while focusing on a single part of the screen.
The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers of the USA recommends sit at a distance where the screen fills a minimum of 30° of your field of vision to guarantee a good experience for a consumption of varied multimedia content.
The preferences and budget of the buyer as well as your own user experience They will always be the points that weigh when choosing a new TV. In any case, some of the manufacturers also suggest the ideal sizes and the distance they should be from viewers. (YO)
