3. Room Layout and Furniture

Take into account your room’s layout and furniture placement, as both these aspects may limit, or even determine, the size of your TV screen. Remember to measure the available space so the TV fits comfortably into it.

4. Personal Preference

You may have a smaller room yet prefer larger sizes of TV screens for a better cinematic experience, or you may have a larger room with a smaller designated gaming area, requiring a smaller TV. You may not use your TV for watching sports, but for casually watching movies and listening to music, so a larger TV screen wouldn’t be necessary. Take your preferences into account to choose the size best suited for you.

5. Budget

It is essential to decide on a budget before shopping so you choose a TV screen that meets your needs without breaking the bank. You can find many TV screens from LG for varying prices, all offering incredible watching experiences and highly advanced features regardless of size.
