About TV Size & Viewing Distance Tool

What this tool does

The TV Size & Viewing Distance tool helps you choose a screen size and seating distance that feel comfortable in your room. Enter your room depth, pick a TV diagonal size, and see a simple 3D preview of how the screen relates to your sofa.

It uses common viewing-distance guidelines so you can compare options before buying furniture or mounting a display. Everything runs in your browser; measurements are not uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

What viewing distance should I aim for?
Many people prefer a distance roughly 1.2× to 1.6× the screen diagonal for 4K TVs, but comfort varies by room layout and personal taste. Use the highlighted range as a starting point, not a strict rule.
Does this account for wall mounts or soundbars?
The tool focuses on screen size and eye line from seating. Leave extra clearance on your wall for mounts, soundbars, or media cabinets when you plan the final layout.
