Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?

HDTV Size chart
With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience.

If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.

  • Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
  • Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

4.0 out of 5 stars A good tv at a very good price, August 2, 2010

This review is from: ViewSonic VT2342 23-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
We now have the TVs for 2 weeks. The picture is very good, off the air. The sound is mediocre at best. DVDs display very good picture, while VHS looks very poor - much worse than on the old low res tube TV :) Since the screen is "only" 23" diagonally, pixelation on fast moving objects seems minimal. This TV is now discontinued, but a similar TV with LED instead of CFL background lighting, is available instead, and which should improve contrast and black level retention even further. We did not try it with Blu Ray DVDs, but our upscaling DVD to 1080i gave very good picture, with vivid colors and decent black level retention. Recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great monitor, great TV, May 31, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ViewSonic VT2342 23-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
I bought this to mount in front of our treadmill so we can watch Netflix (via Roku) and DVDs while walking. I also had in mind that if we changed our minds, it would be a very nice computer monitor as well.

It looks very good, but I admit this is our first HDTV, so I have nothing to compare it to. I was pleased to see how much HD content we have available on our basic analog Comcast cable. You'll have to explore all the channels to find it, because cable box channel numbers are completely arbitrary assignments by the cable company that bear no relationship to the frequencies and sub channels that the TV displays. I have not tried using an antenna.

Regarding other reviewers' complaints, the menu font is indeed small, (not an issue for us, since we're close to it). The channels do take a second or so to change, so I'm going to make that less of an issue by adding "favorites." It sounds fine to me. I use headphones most of the time, but the speakers are fine if we need them.

There is a button labeled "wide" that cycles through several different aspect ratio and zoom combinations (I find we need this a lot because of the variety of different formats being broadcast, even on Netflix). It would be nice if the TV remembered the last setting you used on each channel.

If you have a small set up where you want your computer monitor to double as a TV (dorm room or small apartment) this would be perfect.
