Find your TV size in the first column.
Use the 4K column for UHD streaming/disc content and 1080p column for HD-heavy usage.
Pick a seat point inside the range based on personal comfort and room layout.
Disclaimer: These ranges are planning guidelines, not strict standards. Eyesight, subtitle size, and room brightness can change ideal seating.
If your room is deep, a larger screen may feel better than sitting at the far end of the recommended range.
