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.
