Retro TV Size and Distance Guide

How it helps

Use it for a focused task

This guide helps you pick a comfortable TV size for older CRT and early flat-screen sets based on how far you sit and what room you are using. It focuses on real-world constraints like weight, depth, and furniture, not just screen inches.

Pick your room type, enter your viewing distance or room width, choose your primary use, and the guide will suggest a sensible screen size range. You can switch between inches and centimeters, save your setup, copy a share link, or print a small cheat sheet.

Modern TV advice assumes thin, light screens. Old CRTs are heavy and deep, and budget flat-screens often have poor viewing angles.
